If you've been around the center for awhile you know how important and how neglected iodine is not only to your thyroid health but overall health. In this newsletter I address a myriad of health issues associated with iodine and exactly why we think it is the closest thing to the fountain of youth you'll find. |
The Closest Thing We Have Found to the Fountain of Youth- Iodine.
96% of Americans are deficient in iodine. This means YOU! The consumption of iodine has decreased 50% in the last 30 years. Various additives in food, tap water, medicines and consumer products push iodine out of the body creating a greater deficiency.
Iodine deficiency creates dozens and dozens of symptoms. This includes high cholesterol, high blood pressure, depression, recurring infections, weight gain, fatigue, asthma, ADHD and constipation.
The pharmaceutical industry is dependent on you being deficient of iodine.
Iodine was put into supplement form in 1829 by a Frenchman named Dr. Lugol. This formula still exists today and is known as Lugol's solution. It is considered to be the first "Western medicine" ever. It was used to shrink enlarged thyroids (goiters), cure hyperactive and underactive thyroids, and shrink tumors (cancer) of the thyroid, breast, and prostate. By 1956, there were 1,700 different iodine preparations. It was used as a panacea since it fixes almost everything!The drug companies started to attack it in the 1960's. Now you can't even get it at a pharmacy! Also, medical schools started teaching their students that iodine is harmful but this is simply not true.Why has this deception continued? It's because drug companies make money on this falsehood. It's not just a little bit of money- it's a cornerstone of their total income! Click Here to Read Is Iodine the Fountain of Youth?
