Iodine Detox – One Way To Detox Environmental Toxins

Detox your bodyThere has been a lot of interest in the mineral iodine recently due to the Fukushima nuclear disaster. People are snapping up potassium iodide and other iodine supplements to protect against radioactive Iodine -131. But many of them probably don’t know that they may have an iodine detox.

Iodine is increasingly being used by doctors and other health practitioners to detox mercury, lead, other heavy metals, bromine and fluoride.

Iodine & Thyroid Hormone

Iodine in the form of iodide is essential for the manufacture of the important thyroid hormone, thyroxine, which is vital for metabolism. It governs the speed of all your body’s activities and without it you could not function.

At one time iodine was considered to be the universal nutrient and in the early 19th Century doctors used it as a cure for just about everything. When scientists discovered that iodine was essential for thyroid function iodised salt was introduced in America and Europe to reduce goitre which was prevalent in some areas where it was lacking in the soil.  Iodine was also added to bread.

Radiation Detox

Radiation DetoxWith everyone concerned about the effects of radiation from the Japanese nuclear reactors disaster I thought that a few tips about radiation detox would be a good idea. I have already written a short article on my Facebook fan page but here is an excellent article from Dr Caroline Dean, MD, ND that she has given me permission to reprint here:

Radiation Therapies

I’m being deluged with emails asking if I would recommend potassium iodide to protect us from radiation that is slowly encircling the world from the damaged nuclear reactors in Japan. Most of my clients are already taking potassium iodine in the form of Iodorol, so they would just increase their dose for the next two weeks. However, iodine only protects the thyroid. What about the rest of the body?

How Does Mercury Poisoning Affect Your Health?

Guest Post

Mercury is uniquely both a heavy metal and a liquid at room temperature. Only three other elements are liquids at room temperature. Its atomic number is 80. Other metals near it on the Periodic Chart include silver, gold, cadmium, and lead. Gold is the only one of these that is more dense. Being both a metal and liquid had made it both useful and harmful. The usefulness has been known for centuries. The harm we are only beginning to learn.

Detox Mercury If You Want To Cure Candida For Good

Many practitioners and holistic doctors believe that the deeper underlying cause of Candida overgrowth is due to mercury toxicity. If you suspect you have a Candida problem or have been diagnosed with Candida overgrowth then it’s better to consider mercury toxicity now rather than later after you have tried everything else to get better and failed.

Mercury Toxicity

Mercury is a substance that has no known function in the body and is the most toxic of the heavy metals. Its presence can contribute to a huge range of symptoms that could even be mistaken for symptoms of Candida overgrowth.

The kidneys, intestines and nervous system are most sensitive to damage by mercury but it can lodge in the brain and many other tissues weakening the immune system. Mercury can alter the balance of the intestinal flora which together with a weakened immune system can lead to intestinal Candida overgrowth.

How to Detox Toxic Heavy Metals with Liquid Zeolite

Some of the main toxins that threaten your health are the heavy metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium and arsenic. Although not a heavy metal aluminum is also toxic. These toxic metals get into your body from food, water, air, or absorption through the skin. They become attached to proteins and molecules and disrupt the function of your cells causing serious damage. Liquid zeolite is gaining a reputation as an ideal natural solution to detox them safely from your body.

Why do we need to detox heavy metals?

Toxic metals replace nutrient minerals and impair the function of enzymes that are involved in thousands of your body’s metabolic reactions including the detox system. They can also weaken and cause free radical damage to tissues such as your arteries, joints, bones and muscles.

The kidneys, intestines and nervous system are most sensitive to damage by mercury but it can lodge in the brain and many other tissues weakening the immune system. Mercury amalgams (silver dental fillings) have been found to be the main source of mercury exposure in most individuals. Although people who eat a lot of fish may also accumulate mercury especially if they are not good detoxifiers of it.

Long-term heavy metal exposure may result in slowly progressing physical, muscular, and neurological degenerative processes that are similar to Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, muscular dystrophy, and multiple sclerosis.
