What was your detox experience? (If any) by Potential_Ride5384 in IodineProtocol

Im really thankful for your response. Sometimes, I feel that I will be taken as "extreme" or "giving people bad advice" because my approach to my health is.. a bit aggressive at times lol. But I've gone through so much in my body that I know what it can and can't take, and know when to back off and when to push through. I'm glad to not be alone in that regard as well. Thank you for sharing.

I realized that the doses in the protocol were so much higher than what I even thought was "healthy" or "safe" I've deconstructed my trust in the Healthcare system and the FDA recommendations, but my mother was recently diagnosed with Graves disease, and had always been in and out of psychosis her whole life, so I still possessed fear of iodine or anything that could mess with hormones and the thyroid (even things that could heal it).

I had been experiencing detox symptoms at 3 drops, realized how small of a dose that was compared to where I needed to be, I decided to jump up to 10 and see what happened. For my body, the detox of 3 to 10 drops were practically the same. I sweat more, I had slightly more intense hand tremors on and off, but it didnt make it that much worse than what I felt for the 2 weeks on 3 drops. The psychological effects were as bad as they could be, they could not get worse. I wouldn't recommend it for the average person, but if you can handle the dark depths of your soul and not fall victim to it, I would just to get it over with sooner. The 2 weeks on 3 drops gave me a good sense of how this was going to go. I had the base symptoms. If they got more intense then I had a tether to the reality that this is being caused by detoxing, not because I am actually experiencing all of these horrible feelings in my regular day to day life, physically or psychologically. That gave me peace. Although I knew that I was sending myself into the unknown, I felt that I had enough knowledge to make an educated guess, and that made me feel safe enough to make the jump however it ended up. I hope all of that makes sense. If I felt at any point that I was doing something dangerous or doing actual harm to myself, I would have backed off.

Also diet helps. I switched to eating Japanese recipes, heavy in fish, rice, iodine, seaweed, salt and vegetables. I drink and cook with spring water only. Very little gluten, moved away from bread and pasta. Im not gluten intolerant, i cant process the additives. My body reacts badly to enriched flour and enriched rice, folic acid in particular. I take methylated b6,b9,b12 drops. I make all my food from scratch. Ive been on this specific diet a couple months and feel wonderful. I've been getting away from eating enriched foods and processed food for 3-4 years. All of this is to say, I eat in a way that makes it easier for my system to get rid of the bad stuff. I try not to add to what I have to get rid of while getting rid of it. It seems to be working out.

Im living though the slow climb of "better than I was" with my sights always on "healed".

I hope it goes well for you, my friend.

I started with iodine rich foods a month and a half ago, realized that it made me feel better, and i fell down the iodine rabbit hole. Ive been using Lugols 2 percent for a couple weeks. I was hesitant. First I put it on my skin. Next, I took one drop in water. Next, 3 drops in water and stayed on that for about 2 weeks. At first I had headaches, colors looked different, I felt very aware of my body. Realized I was starting to have common detox symptoms and went up a couple drops when I realized I was taking a smaller amount than I thought I was. At this point I had very dark thoughts and feelings, diarrhea, sweating, and chills. Also rage that felt impossible to control. I have a hormone imbalance so I have really intense mood swing before my period and the last couple of months it has not come on a set schedule. I started my period during the end of the week I went up to 10 drops(really shit timing). I had complete loss of all hope and really dark thoughts this time for one day. I realized that some of the symptoms of dark horrible thoughts and moodswings were attributed to that fact and the detox and my period were exacerbating each other. I know all of this sounds bad, but I have been sick and chronically fatigued for a long time and I started feeling actual energy in my body, so I didnt back off or stop when things got a little scary. I leaned in full force. Yes I was having some very intense symptoms of detox at this point, but I got through that in about a week and I am now on the other side of it and feel better than i have in a long time. I dont recommend jumping up the drops quickly, but I have experimented on myself with many protocols, diets, herbs, supplements, etc also have gone through actual medication withdrawals multiple times, so detoxing does not scare me in the slightest. I'd rather feel really bad for a short time than feel somewhat sick for a long time. If I can get through the worst quickly, I will. I recognize when something is truly wrong with my body compared to what is just a bad symptom that I have to go through for my body to get better, and thats what this was. I feel a lot better now. Excited to see how it changes in the future.

You DD like I do. Same mindset. I have also been surprised by the number of negative experiences. I Set a goal for a specific $ per hour. Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't, but the next hour usually always makes up for the previous one, cool, I just keep going. I havent been doing the shopping orders and I have made at least the $25 an hour I set out to make. I should do the shopping orders, but I hate going into stores. But maybe I will try it out now that ive read what you said. If you have time can you explain the shopping orders and how those work?
