- At least 4 out of 10 humans on planet Earth are deficient in Iodine (maybe even you). Iodine is used by every cell in your body and you will suffer from not getting enough in your diet. Given that our world is currently swimming in fluoridated water and bromine additives, the amount recommended is not nearly enough.

Dr Brownstein has been my doctor for 20 years. I was suffering from chronic sinus and respiratory infections. I would get one or two infections per month. He did such extensive bloodwork and found all kinds of issues. He straightened out my thyroid, balanced my sex, hormones, and got taking iodine and Vitamin D before anyone was talking about it 20 years ago. He is years ahead of his time. He is kind, caring, and always starts the appointment with a hug.
How many drops do you take of iodine?
@@jessemeghanmault1457 Dr Brownstein determines the amount based on blood tests for my thyroid. For many years I was,on 12.5 mg now it’s higher. I don’t use drops because I prefer it in pill form.
Before anyone was talking about 20 years ago? You’re joking right? We’ve been adding iodine to table salt for 100 years
And sixty years ago, everyone was told to limit salt. Based on literally nothing. Most doctors today do not pay attention to Iodine levels.
What brand and dosage?
I have the answer for you as to why you didn't learn this in med school..... My grandfather was a scientist. Made meds. He was the top man at his lab. In 1985, big pharm made the decision to go from preventative care to managed care. By 1989, they were full on subscribing and implementing this philosophy. I asked my grandfather at his retirement party, why would they do this. He said it was all about the money. Keep us sick, make more money. And big pharm controls the medical schools. You were never going to learn how to truly keep a person healthy.
I believe this totally! Its for the money!! Sadly🙏🏻💜✌🏽
My scientist PhD dad found that also... Again you have to study and find the clues that will make you healthy... It's all wound up together now so confuse'n many people... The clue is.... How's your health?!?
@wendythompson thank God I didn't go to med school it would kill my spirit finding out it was waste of time.
Bilderberg Group, Silent Weapons for a Quiet War, 1954 documents . Eye-opening read
That’s it. Big pharm creates the doctors’ college curriculum. In other words, it’s rigged.
Good to know what decisions were made when. It’s a sick-care system. All wrong.
There is little money in prevention but there is a lot of money in cancer treatment .
So so true and jobs it's not in the systems interest to cure cancer it's corlrupt no one is letting it be cured it's sad
“There are more people living off cancer than dying!”
What if you have diabetes insipidous, so you're losing urine so fast.
I was listening to this in my car. During the first listening I went straight to the health food shop and bought some more Lugol’s 5% solution. I had run out months ago. On the trip home, I listened to this for a second time, back-to-back. I just got home and took a dose of 4 drops Lugols solution and some Celtic sea salt with my water. This interview impacted me that much. Thank you.
Same! I was drinking water while watching the video then as they’re talking, I added a drop of iodine to my water. Then a pinch of salt. Then when we mentioned fibrocystic issues, I added another drop of iodine to my water! I should probably add 2-3 more drops!
It is not only “terrible”, it is criminal what has happened with health, mostly because of ignorance and Greed!
Definitely not ignorance.
Flexner Report
The government and the "supposed health system" including the pharmaceutical companies, want you "fat & sick" as it is an extremely prosperous business!!
Amen!
Yeah, I was going to say take ignorance out. They know what they are doing. They don't care as long as it doesn't affect them!
I started potassium iodine this week. Was diagnosed with Hashimote three years ago. Taking 65MG. Also had a quad heart bypass, then three stents so, 14 months ago I started Intermittent Fasting 18/6, now doing one meal a day. Plus started Carnivore 9 months ago. Cured all these; constipation, pre type 2 diabetes, cured severe body pain after minor chores, E.D.. Lost 20 pounds so far, Now at 155lb at 5'10". I'm 70 years old and getting honest to God younger/stronger.
Happy for you😁
Get checked to see if you have Insulin Resistance. If so a carnivore diet will cure it.
NY,USa wow im fifty almost months ,s seed shirt.uvbring me hope teach me
Are you male? Just curious because my husband has many of those things also.
65 milligram or microgram?
My rough collie had Lupis that was attacking his nose, eyes. The vet gave him Prednisone which was better than nothing. I had difficulty monitoring the intake. It was such a fine line. His joints became inflamed and would bleed out the skin. He could not get up off the floor. I thought for sure I’d have to put him down 😢. But then I was introduced to Dr Brownstein and why Iodine. I engulfed the information. The slowly began feeding my dog. Within 3 days he was an entirely different dog! Long story, he did loose a bunch of hair as I balanced a tiny bit of prednisone and diluted the 2% Lugol’s solution. But I’m happy to report my dog is happy, healthy and well ❤
So is it ok to give my dog iodine??
This is interesting. I have lupus and have been learning from Dr. Berry. I’m trying the carnivore diet. I’ve learned about so many things that can cause lupus. Praying I can put mine in its place so I can live again! Proud you healed your dog!
@@TheMaurine11 I can only say I have given my dog iodine. You need to make your own choices based on your own research. I will never tell you it is ok for you to do something. I diluted the 2% Lugol’s solution 1:1 solution to distilled water. I started on one drop of that mixture. Now he gets 3 drops daily and is doing well. He is 130 pounds.
My cousin has lupus. I had no idea a dog could be deficient! That’s amazing, thx for sharing! 🙂
What do you do to treat it what do you use

Hi Shaun Smith, I visited the GP this morning. She took a look at my supplements and told me to stop taking the ones that contain iodine, saying (paraphrasing), "We don't recommend any iodine supplements during pregnancy. The prenatals, normally, do not contain iodine. I don't see why yours does." I was also advised to stop taking the seakelp capsules since they contain 737mcg of iodine. The appointment had me worried sick.
I feel so relieved that Dr. Berry released this video just hours before my appointment. I'm so happy that I hadn't been overdosing my pregnant self.
@@wonderfulherennow unfortunately we have to conduct medical experiments on ourselves, and on our offspring, if we want to find the truth... Wisdom comes at a heavy price. The alternative is to blindly follow others' advice and hope for the best, which as I have seen can often lead to catastrophe, which seems so predictable when one thinks of all the profit and power incentives clouding modern medical guidance.
It doesnt help Gates and his eugenics agenda either.
1000% correct t!!
Anyone considering adding iodine needs to look up the iodine protocol. You need to have adequate selenium levels, magnesium levels and vitamin C , plus adequate sodium. Also you need to gradually increase the dose. The docs can’t say it so I will. There is very little chance you can find an MD who is iodine literate, and if you do can you afford them. you need to do it yourself. Read Brownstein’s book and follow the protocol. GET YOUR Selenium levels measured ! This is important before you start iodine. Low selenium while increasing iodine can lead to thyroid damage.
I would expand on that and say while selenium levels are important. The reason why it’s important is what people should actually focus on. Glutathione is the key to preventing thyroid damage. Sleeping poorly can even affect its production. Stress, not enough vitamin C, E, magnesium, B vitamins, zinc and Alpha lipoic acid all can be bottlenecks.
Maximising glutathione production is the goal. Selenium can’t do that on its own. But often is the key to unlock it for people. It wasn’t for me, though.
@@Valoric that can be an issue for those with MTHFR, because they generally have poor glutathione production, hence detoxing is harder for them (I have it, unfortunately, about 40% of Caucasians have it, but most don't know).
I'm currently doing my own Iodine protocol with my husband, and things seem to be improving greatly. I have very mild Hashimoto's that's been improving (prior to Iodine), as in, my antibodies were only ever 9 and have recently been tested down to 3. But I have basically every single symptom of severe Hypothyroidism in the book except for poor fertility. Horrible fatigue, weight gain despite eating a great diet (matches Dr. Ken Berry) for about a decade, having a clean lifestyle, etc. I started Iodine after a ton of research into the way the thyroid works, particularly how Iodine is necessary for T4 (which is what I'm low in). I haven't had iodized salt in a decade, and I have next to zero wild seafood or sea plants in my diet and have not for several years. It just makes sense that I need to include Iodine. We started with 125mcg and have added a single drop (equal to another 125 mcg) each week, plus 100-200mcg of Selenium depending on what else we're eating that day. I'm also personally taking 2000mg of Vitamin C and around 400mg of Magnesium Glycinate, plus 10,000 IU of Vitamin D3 + K2. I've noticed some really interesting detox reactions (likely from bromine and probably some flouride and chlorine): really small pimple clusters, very dark urine, mild headaches, and fatigue/brain fog. I've been doing saltwater flushes that help IMMENSELY. I usually do about a cup of water with 1/2 tsp of sea salt shortly after I take my Iodine and Selenium. Plus I have a very good amount of sodium (from sea salt) throughout my day (and other electrolytes). We're now 6 weeks into this protocol and up to 750mcg of Iodine, and we've both had extreme benefits to our sleep and overall energy. I was suffering from severe insomnia where I'd wake up no more than 1.5 hours into sleeping and do that the entire night, and there was always a time where I'd be stuck awake from 30-60 minutes just unable to fall back to sleep. I now wake up once or twice, usually just to readjust, and go right back to sleep. I'm almost never having any moments of being stuck awake unless something jolts me awake like a loud sound or something, but even then, I sleep very well once I go back to sleep. And both my husband and I have had much more vivid dreams. I'm really optimistic that this is helping my thyroid. I woke up earlier than I have in ages this morning with tons of energy. Got nearly all of my chores done before the time I'd normally even wake up. I'm praying this is my thyroid improving. And I hope my comment can inspire someone. If you have thyroid issues, GO SLOW AND STEADY. Do not just jump into 50mg of iodine. You don't need to do that. The thyroid is very slow to respond and heal (from what I've read), and you're better off going very slowly, especially since Iodine will dislodge the other Halogens and cause side effects. Take it slowly. You likely didn't get a thyroid problem overnight, and you're not going to heal it overnight either.
@@faeleaf174 750mcg of Iodine is only .75mg, he said 25mg is min?
🔺🔺🔺I so hope that someone will see my comment and point me in the right direction... It is clear that good functioning thyroid is a significant driver for cellular health and good levels of hormones... Now, my question is... what if a person has had a thyroidectomy (as a result of Medullary Thyroid Cancer) and is on hormone replacements. Should iodine still play a role in his health? Any other solid health advice for a 38 old male with no thyroid (backed with a reason, if possible). I Would appreciate and read every answer. Thank you.
Yeahp, my wife got her breast lumps gone the moment she started Iodine .... at 23 yy, and within less than 1 month those lumps
were gone. Today, at 59 yy .... those lumps never came back...!!! Great video.
Hi, did you take it orally for the lumps? What brand do you use and where to purchase it?
Which milligrams?
Did your wife take nascent iodine? If so, how many drops?
What is yy
@@stacycowman7573 years young
Love you Dr. Brownstein! I’ve been a patient with his office for over 15 years. He and his fellow doctors are absolute heroes. They go against the grain, get threatened constantly by the federal government and still fight for their patients to receive great health care.
Hi, my wife is thinking of going to his clinic. We are hoping to talk to someone via phone or video who has gone there - as it will be an out of state visit. Are you going there for thyroid issues/take iodine? If so, any interest chatting?
I am his patient too. I’ve been going to him for 20 years. I drive across the state to see him twice a year.
@@ihsnyder Thanks for the information! Do you by chance have hashimotos? If so, would you be willing to talk to my wife sometime briefly about your experience with him/iodine/results? We watch these videos and they are so compelling but we're missing the real person story. Our trip would be cross country and we want to make sure we're making the right choice.
@@ihsnyder Could you please tell where he is located?
You don't need to go cross country and spend all that money. Read his material, watch his lectures. It's all right there. Start the iodine protocol, something small like a drop of 5% a day in water, and gradually increase it to a therapeutic dose. It's a natural mineral your body needs; not a medication.
Dr Brownstein literally saved my life with his books & writings. In 2010-11-12 my thyroid quit working. Almost died 4 separate times (Myxedema) I was still skinny so 5 doctors & 2 years in, I was still horribly ill. Dr B’s info on iodine was the gateway for my education and self healing. Thyroid now works and I am healthy.
Did you do anything other than iodine? And did you use Lugol's? If so, how many drops?
@@faithahora I used lugols. drops varied. The day I got the first bottle was a Saturday. I had HORRID brain fog that impacted every aspect of my life. I put a dropper full under my tongue, then realized I probably should have looked up how much...BUT within an hour, the brain fog lifted and I felt like me for the first time in a very long time. I did a lot more than that, but it would take a book to describe it all. the Iodine & dr Brownstein's advice was the big first step.
Did you have graves hypothyroidism
Hello RedFlyer, could you please let me know what doses you use? Thank you.
@@deniseowens1163 No, I did not have Graves.
When a Doctor speaks words like: "Our Maker," you're surely in good hands! 👍👌
🙏 Amen
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of all wisdom". Proverbs 1:7
I wish. There are so many charlatans who say ‘Our Lord-‘ that are rotten to the vote. Look at Drumpf.
“Not all who say ‘Lord! Lord!’- shall enter the kingdom of heaven.” -Jesus
POSSIBLY, Lorenz. Then again, “ our maker “ is a generic term. It does show that he isn’t an atheist, but saying “ Our maker “ is not good enough for ME. Then again, he would lose many followers if he said “ Jesus “, so I will……take his references lightly, but hoping.
It’s actually a red flag. One persons unscientific belief systems must not be used as a tool when treating another.
It's so refreshing to find those instilled in the system to finally get it and wake up. I don't have a doctor I have a naturopath. I'm so better off for it. I'm 70 and people tell me I don't look 70 and don't act like a jeriatric 70 year old. I'm a woman O negative blood donor every 56 days. Don't and have not ever taken meds, never smoked or drank. I ride and do most of the repairs on my Kawasaki 300 ninja. Have two horses and work my own little business. I'm not vaccinated nor my husband three children and 9 grandchildren. I homeschooled my three children for 10 years after I graduated from college. Put my carreer on the shelf. I am thankful my children are all free critical thinkers. Thank you for informing people hopefully they will take it to heart.
I was diagnosed with Graves...and I had my Chiro put me on Iodine. My Endo who is top in a well established hospital here in Ohio told me no, it would make me worse....so I stopped...and I got worse. So, he said to continue what I was doing...the Iodine....and he watched as my bloodwork showed my improvement.
I hope he takes those results to heart
Thank you I now have hope for my Graves desease.
Your iodine is a prescription?
@@bkd4122 no...i switch between 2. Chiro put me on standard process iodine and i also like atomic iodine...the edgar cayce type
I started Carnivore for my returning Graves - totally reversed my blood work in 7 weeks! Have stayed on Carnivore now for 15 mths. I was also told NO IODINE by my Dr 🙁
I kid you not, I have been on the internet since this morning, searching for sources from my carnivore proponents, about iodine recommendation for pregnancy. A notification for this video just popped up 🥳
Google sees everything you are doing . NO it was not God. 😂
Welcome to Dr. Berry's podcast!
Lugols
@@andreavandekleut6379 Explain, me starting to show concern on this exact matter exactly at the same time as Dr. Berry decides to put up a video on the same thing.

In my country, Türkiye, Dr. Hasan Hüsnü Eren started "Iodine Movement " nearly 5 years ago. I think medical industry has made it forgotten on purpose. Thank you for talking about this 🌿🙏
I can guarantee he got the information from Dr. Brownstein.
Im a chiropractor of 45 years practicing functional medicine, and your information is spot on. Thank you so much for your tenacity and wealth of knowledge. Dr. Brownstein is genius.
So many people dying of fast cancers these days. And I have had six friends who have had heart attacks! Recently, my aunt died of four week brain cancer. My young, fit cousin dropped dead of a heart attack, and my dad’s cousin died of Guillaume Barre. Why is this happening? I know. Do you?

There is only 1 thing that has changed significantly in the last few years. Wake up people!!!!
Dr B inspired me on this topic and changed my life. I was able to nourish my son’s brain and he went from a severe learning disability to working 2 part time jobs.
I was inspired to write an amazing book called Stolen Intellect (recovering the missing link to generational health) that is now being sold globally and at Harvard University bookstore.
I am so thankful to Dr Brownstein, he will always be an inspiration to me! ❤️
Keep changing the world Dr B! Thank you Dr Ken! 🦋
what did you give him to help his brain?
Iodine!!
WOW! Absolutely incredible. Congratulations and huge respect to you momma ❤
Amen to this ❣️ Amazing 🙌
What if iodine levels show normal in lab results and u still give iodine, is that harmful?
I enjoy these discussions. Only find these on CZcams. People call CZcams their university, but CZcams has become my health service.
You’re one of many. Unless you need a surgery, I’d much prefer my medical advice to come from doctors like these guys
Totally agree. I have not had a single doctor in my entire life (71 years old) who has honestly given me any good advice. Everything suggested has the word drug in it or surgery. I look for my health advice on CZcams There are many excellent doctors here who are knowledgeable and experienced. I’ve been supplementing with the iodine suggested by Dr. B for about a month now.
@@tootstoyou1except ND's are even more qualified. Look up their education!
Tho these two had some their home work after their much waste of medical school.
Yes!
The truth!
My Dr, endocrinologist and my Gastroenterologist both told me not to take iodide drops!
Funny thing is I was testing as sub clinically hyperthyroid. I also have a cyst on my parathyroid which is 4mm long. My finger nails have also become ridged.
Why I was advised twice to not take the iodine really confused me, because when I did my thyroid levels returned to normal and I no longer have the endocrinologist appointments.
They seemed to seriously think I am doing something wrong, but it helped my thyroid levels.!
It just seems backwards.
My nails now are severely ridged. Is this a symptom of low iodine? Or?
@@cherylcastillo7020 apparently it can be in relation to low iodine levels, although it can be associated with connective tissue issues like Ehlers Danlos it seems.
@@cherylcastillo7020 It could be lichen planus of the nails
@@cherylcastillo7020I had severely ridged nails with Graves disease. A high protein Carnivore Diet cured my problem. Plus, I drink a lot of mineral water. I also no longer have any heel callouses anymore.
I have the same... maybe I'll start iodine but how much to take.
I love Dr Brownstein… in 2017 I fired my Endocrinologist after he told me because I had Graves Dx & no thyroid, I didn’t need iodine… Needless to say, Dr Brownstein has helped me survive this nightmare & he doesn’t even know it. I’m not a patient of his. 💚
My daughter has recently been diagnosed with/Graves. She is on a very restrictive autoimmune diet and forbidden to eat anything w iodine. After 2 months, not much better.
@@cacotty9035 I was too … I would say she needs to find a holistic provider to help her heal it WITHOUT removal. Honestly, life is h-l without it. A pill doesn’t fix anything, just keeps you able to function. Not even functioning well. It’s super hard to get regulated. I’ve never had “normal levels” and I go through the extremes of Hashimotos to Hyperthyroidism without my own thyroid.
@@cacotty9035check out Dr Brownstein's book on iodine to see if it's something that your daughter can use for Graves disease.
This is so cool! I used to work with Dr brownstein! My real name is Angelyn. I was a nurse on a hospital family practice unit when he was a brand new resident! He was always a wonderful person to work with as are all of his partners! I'm so glad he has found his way into the holistic medicine field we need many more of them. Go Blue! Lol
That's why they put flouride in the water and toothpaste and put bromide in wheat bread instead of iodine!
Yep.... His hearts in sync with his head and we get the benefit of so much educ & experience. TG for All the Drs that are go'n this holistic direction, they'll heal more than meds ... We can learn and heal ourselves! 🩺
DOC. BERRY, I had been praying about my health concerns when I came across your video. The information you shared was my answer. I had no idea that I was iodine deficient.
After watching, I purchased a bottle - taking 3 drops under my tongue every other morning. At the first dose, my body did a 180 degree turn! NO JOKE... My hair, skin, and energy level - my sleep improved. I wake up, ready to go, as in my 20s! Even the corner of my brows is growing back. It's been a week now, and it keeps getting better. Needless to say, my body is SO HAPPY 😊
Truly? 😮
One week and All that is a bit incredulous... But I'm Sure 0:00 if deficient and you added some under the tongue where its absorbed easiest you'd begin to feel better than you did.... Now if you also get your nutrition levels checked to know what else may need Support, your body can further heal from a weaker to stronger point! That's the key! 🗝️
@les9058, I'm amazed at your comment. Who are you that I need to prove anything to?
Hi, these are great results and I'm glad you are experiencing them so fast! Can you tell me which brand of iodine drops did you purchase? I have Lugol's and I dilute 2 drops in a full tea cup of water. I'm wondering if I should take them under my tongue instead! Cheers to healing ourselves!!
@@ktp. I use the same brand of iodine
Wow!! I wish I had known this all my life!!! I started having fibroid tumors in my breasts & uterus at 19 years old- at 69- I’ve had 7 surgeries for fibroid Breast tumors, cystic hyperplasia breasts, then in my 40’s myomyectomy for 15 uterine fibroid tumors - then had to have a hysterectomy after 6 months because the tumors were back. I’ve also dealt with chronic bronchitis & reoccurring pneumonia with hospitalizations. (Growing up- We didn’t eat seafood since Dad was highly allergic.) I also have nodules & lesions on my thyroid, liver & adrenal gland. I can see that I’ve been iodine deficient all my life!! I’m sharing this with my doctors & my family who are in the medical field as well as my friends with cancer & thyroid issues. Thank you so much for discussing this in depth. ❤
Interesting about the bronchitis. I had chronic bronchitis for 30 years. Then all of a sudden I didn't have it anymore. It might have been when I started taking the iodoral.
Please share if you started iodine!
I'm a chemist and this video is fantastic. Fluoride is hard to remove becuse the bond between fluorine and anything have the highest bond strengths. Also, flour in the US is brominated and over crossbread
King Arthur flour has no bromate, bromine, or bromide. 👍
What is the reason to brominate flour?
@@noeldeal8087 they use it as a bleach to make it more white
So what do you do about fluriode?
@noeldeal8087 it makes the dough malleable. Have you ever seen those kitchen machines that work with the flour? I don't know what they are called, but it stretches dough, so apparently, it causes it to be supple, chewy, and thick. If you look up what these chemicals are in, it'll blow your mind. It can be found in fire extinguishers, furniture, plastics, and pesticides, just to name a few. You get the point. In the human body, it goes where iodine is used. Namely, the CREBS cycle. So... when your body goes to make energy, the little nasty chemicals vy with iodine, essentially throwing a wrench in the works. These chemicals are cancer causing and interfere with just about all hormones our bodies make. The solution is to get enough iodine and don't eat chemicals in this family.
Glad to hear Dr. Brownstein give glory to our Creater. We did not evolve.
I was thinking the same! =)
Dollop!
Yes!🙌
Amen!
I was glad to hear it, too! We didn't evolve from non-human. Pharma wants us to believe we're just a bag of chemicals so they can "fix" us with chemicals.
Dr. Berry, I've just recently heard some doctors on CZcams say that those who started taking iodine actually develop a thyroid disorder and that iodine isn't needed. I also heard one say that the countries with the lowest amount of iodine, actually have better thyoid health.
The misinformation is infuriating. Thank you for educating us on the real benefits of iodine!
Are those doctors vegans? Or maybe they work for big pharma and know they will loose out on people healing by taking iodine.
Check out Dr. Brownstein's book on iodine, he has been using iodine for years with great success, you CAN mess up using iodine if you don't know what you are doing. Ex. it needs some cofactors with it as well. Too many people speaking from an uneducated and unexperienced point of view.
I wonder if these "some doctors" you mention, actually base their information on studies and facts or it is something they learned in med school? Misinformation is not only infuriating it is confusing as to who to listen to. I can only put hopeful trust in these two gentlemen. Thank you Dr s.Berry and Brownstein.
It appears this happened to me. Lab work and symptoms.
Funny thing is, all my lab results and symptoms are back to normal, gained a little off the weight back that I lost suddenly and I started feeling fine two months later, after stopping the iodine, taking herbal supplements, stopping eating eggs and dairy.
But my doctor says once you have graves disease, you'll always have it. I am so confused.
I have been animal based for over 3 years but no longer eat any shellfish or seafood or dairy. No fluoride in 8 years and on well water for 24 years.
Dr. Berry I was raised on a ranch and I recall my Dad feeding the rabbits and cows salt licks with iodine. I also recall him telling us not to eat it. But of course we did.
I'll bet he got you with the, "Don't milk those cows, or bale that hay," too. ;-)
I ate the cowlicks too.
@@miriambartley6622 My mother grew up on a farm, and as children, she'd tell us we had a 'cowlick' when our hair was sticking up, uncombed. Turns out, when a cow licks you with that big, wet tongue it makes your hair stand up.
You, Dr Brownstein, have been the Gold standard in the SE Michigan for functional medicine! Ppl, this man is brilliant!- as a medical employee in the major hospital system in that area, he is very well respected for getting to the root cause of so many illnesses. So great to get him for an hour here!! 🔥 ❤
I am a retired respiratory therapist. In my 30's I drew a lot of blood gases. We did not use gloves then and I prepped the draw site and my fingers with betadine throughout the day. This was before gloves. My fingers were always yellow, and eventually started looking like raw hamburger, so I switched to alcohol preps. I started telling people I was allergic to betadine, but it makes me wonder if I was absorbing iodine at that time. I have read the iodine book and started taking lugol's solution a couple of weeks ago. I don't see doctors anymore because I just don't trust them I I don't know them well.
vitamin C powder mixed with water will take any iodine stain away in a matter of seconds. I'm an ex nurse and I hate seeing doctors now as well.
RT here since 2020. Yup. It was RT bootcamp due to the pandemic. Anyway, Im on the carnivore diet for 10 months which de-aged me by 10 years (I'm 37 but feel like im in my 20s again). I regularly see people younger than me who are on death's door with a multitude of chronic illnesses and deficiencies. Its wild to see the stark contrast now that i know about the proper human diet. I feel like im the only sane person in the hospital at times.
I watch tons of animal based, keto, and carnivore channels. I know more about nutrition than pretty much the entire ICU and ER put together at this point. The docs see that their patients are coming in younger and sicker than ever before and they have no idea how to fix them. Some of them are starting to catch on that processed foods are bad for you but when i ask them to specifically name the processed foods they dont really know what they are. They just think junk food or fast food is what a processed food is. Oh and dont get me started about the tube feeds.....
@@off-meta-michael carnivore is the best because most people have switched to chicken over the years because we are told it causes heart attacks. Not true. It gives you iron and iron carries oxygen through every cell of your body. This is why so many people feel better and look younger. Life is in the blood, God said.
@@off-meta-michael I would love to hear your rant about tube feeds
I purchased Lugals iodine 2% and am taking 3 drops a day. After your video with Dr Brownstein I'm obviously not taking enough. How many drops should I be taking? Also, will the potassium effect my Afib?.
It’s too bad CZcams took down Dr Brownsteins channel at the beginning of you know what.
I had been watching his videos for almost a year and that happened. I’m glad to see his guest appearances.
Omg! Maybe that's why i had never heard of him. That explains it
Why they took down

I am 67 now and the BEST doctor I ever had moved to Brazil because the US was so far behind Europe in meds and medical issues. He was into all of the issues you have talked about in the late 70’s and forward. I cannot find a doc that doesn’t look at you like you are crazy when you mention preventable issues.😮 Thank you from Illinois, the low Iodine state Lol
Iodine Allergy??? A 32 year old friend was told by a doctor that she is allergic to iodine and so she avoids it because she had a reaction to gadolinium contrast. I was stunned. Gadolinium contrast doesn’t contain iodine and iodine is an essential element. She is having difficulties: low blood pressure , dizziness, headaches, sensitivity to light and other symptoms. She keeps leaving work to go to the doctor and emergency room due to her symptoms (she is a veteran). She is totally dependent on these doctors who are not helping her at all. I have encouraged her that we must do our own research. Researching her symptoms, I showed her the possible causes of low blood pressure: hormonal and suggested she look into testing a carnivore diet for two or four weeks, and also look at MTHFR and supplement with methylated B12 and methyl folate. When she and I looked at a multi vitamin with the methylated vitamins she saw it contained iodine. I am going to suggest to her that she watch this video. I hope and pray that she will discover what is going on in her biochemistry.
What a phenomenal interview with Dr. Brownstein! I’ve read ALL of his books and the man is a genius and extremely passionate about healing people! More people desperately NEED this information. Thank You Dr, Barry for bringing him on your show. You are both gifts to humanity!!♥️
I have been carnivore since December of 2018 and have had problems with Hashimoto's since 2014. I used to have a visible Adam's apple but when it's my throat started getting swollen and I couldn't see it anymore I asked my doctor what could possibly be wrong. He said that it is just a part of getting older. I switched doctors and eventually a visiting physicians me with Hashimoto's. I was put on Synthroid but it never really helped much and even after I started the lion diet, it didn't improve. I heard about iodine from Dr Barry but I had been warned about experimenting with it so I researched it a bit and found that it could be very dangerous to take too much so I didn't want to try it. But about 8 months ago I got some lugol's iodine because I had been hearing more about the importance of iodine and I started taking one drop a day. Surprisingly I noticed in the mirror that I could see my voice box again and that was about 3 months ago also when I went to the endocrinologist and he tested my thyroid he said that it was within the normal range again and I no longer needed to see him and to keep taking Synthroid. I began treating my mini scratches with Lugal's iodine because my skin was so easily cut when bumped, and my very brittle nails began to get stronger and the hangnails became non-existent and I was able to grow them very long until they interfered with typing. The other bonus is that I have a lot more energy to do my work. I am almost 74 years young.

There is NO money in there cure, that is the basic answer. When i asked my Doc about peptide therapy and she replied "what's that" When I partially tore my ACL's in a skiing accident I took BPC-157 to speed up healing. My Orthopedic Surgeon was surprised at how fast I was healing so I told him what I was taking he abruptly pushed himself away from me in his little chair and said "well I don't need to see you anymore" and then left the room. Its sad and pathetic that most doctors are not onboard with healing people just collecting the money. Maybe if we start paying doctors a lot less we will start getting doctors that are actually concerned with healing people and not driving the latest Porsche or golfing the best courses.
What is bpc 157?
@@veronicaannsmith3619 It is an amazing peptide being used by top sports doctors and athletes to promote rapid healing.
Never heard of BPC-157. Looked it up. Seems like it could be a game-changing thing for some issues - but as it is probably not patentable, it's likely that no Pharma company will go through the trouble of testing it enough for FDA approval. OTC options are not all of the same quality. But it's very very interesting!! Why am I not surprised that it's not in the interest of the system to get this tested more and more easily available in high quality formats.
@@bdsbethypoo Just from personal use and by watching other athletes I have seen all the research I need. And your right peptides are not patentable.
Amen
My son died of hypoplastic left heart (non-genetic) and I ALWAYS said it was due to high stress and crappy diet during that time!! I always said it to my husband at the time. I am still certain of that. I look after my nutrition now! 🎉
I'm halfway through a nurse practitioner program and I'm NOT being taught about iodine or holistic medicine. I'm being taught which drugs to prescribe only. No preventative care teaching. Before anyone wants to make the distinction btw NP & MD, there is a serious push to replace MDs in family practice with NPs. We are cheaper and do the same job. This is why NP programs are now a doctorate program. And there is an ample supply of nurses that are ready to advance their degree and are halfway there already. It's cheaper all the way around.
Most of my NP have been more knowledgeable than the doctors.
Yep. That's why I never wasted the time or money, or got into the debt trap of mainstream medicine. I hope you make the best out of, in my opinion, a bad situation.
I love my NP!So sweet and smart!😊
You know how to do the right thing now! Supplement your own education and don’t become part of the corrupt system! Good luck in your future career!
My sister stopped practicing nursing as she could no longer watch or participate in the poisoning and murder of our elderly citizens. 😢
I adopted an old mare in 2020 who had a goiter the size of my fist. KNOWING that iodine can help that I started her on iodine pills ordered from Amazon. It took less than a month to see the goiter shrink to half. Now it is the size of a walnut and seems to not be growing or shrinking. But if you saw the difference you would be amazed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a goiter the size of my fist! Now I have hope! My dr wants to take my thyroid out and I say NO!
I have a goiter the size of a lemon. My dr wants to remove my thyroid but I declined. Now I have hope.
My conventional doctors have tested my thyroid multiple times after I experienced regularly "missing" menstrual cycles. All of them told me it was borderline hypo but not bad enough for them to want to treat and I didn't want to be on synthetic thyroid anyway. I started using Irish sea moss gel (organic, unsweetened, very high in iodine), and my menstrual cycle was regulated immediately.
Tara,
Did you make the gel yourself? If so, can you please give the recipe? Thank you and God bless 🙏🌹
@@skinnydee1886 I did not but I purchase from a local shop that does you can also find varieties of it online. I always go organic. Organic nature is a good company I’ve trusted so far.
I hate that doctors won’t treat the symptoms as a “test”!!!!!!!!!
Also,I’m so happy for you that you found a good solution!!❤
@@pamelaalley5691doctors can only do so much either by what they've been taught and also the insurance companies.

My Doctors over the years wouldn't believe me when I'd say that I thought I had Hashimoto's. This went on for 40 years, with several moves that required finding a new Dr. Finally, I told my present doctor, look! I have ALL the symptoms! Shouldn't we run the antibodies portion of my thyroid tests? She asked me, "Did you ever see a psych?" 🙄🤬😤
My thyroid got so bad with undetermined nodules, more than one doctor said I'd need to have it removed 😢😢 I did. My surgeon said it fell apart in her hands, it was so destroyed. She also warned me that I might still have autoimmune battles ahead. I have. And, my thyroid replacement has been a constant adjusting of meds. Finally on Armour and doing better.
I don't trust doctors. 😢
(I have more disappointment stories which led to a complete hysterectomy, and complications)
I'm so sorry, that's awful. I def have hypo symptoms and 2 nodules and no one believes me either so I feel your pain. :(
Very sad to hear about your struggles and how you have been let down by the system. 😢 I'm sure you are not alone.
So sorry!! 🙏
Yes for the most part I don't trust doctors either. I have many similar stories.
But I am glad to have Dr. Berry here on CZcams.
What he says makes sense & while I only start 5 weeks ago carnivore is already helping. And this Dr he has on is fantastic.
You’re not alone. I feel most docs are both ignorant and incompetent. They can’t think critically and/or connect the dots.
I don’t trust them either. They put notes in the records and then everyone thinks you are uncooperative or nuts before ever actually listening to your symptoms! I bet this happened to you-probably why they decided to mention a psych eval, I literally just made a comment describing the weirdest appointment ever…
Of ALL the healthy foods & supplements I've taken over the last 15-20 years, IODINE is the SINGLE thing I KNOW has truly helped me!! About 9 years ago, out of the blue, I started to suffer from terrible blues & daily bouts of crying. It was not situational... I had - and KNEW my life was good... I did some exploration and suspected I had low thyroid so started taking kelp flakes (approx 1100 mg). After 2 weeks, my blues & crying completely melted away. I was later found to have subclinical low thyroid and put on 60 grams of Armour - but continued - and still do to take the iodine - I believe it saved my life. I will also add, I never got C19, and I can't remember the last time I had a cold or any virus or bug...
Thanks for sharing. Very hopeful for all of us who read this.
Thank you for sharing this. I know our stories are anecdotal, but it helps me a lot to hear others experiences. I just went off my 180 mg Armour Thyroid 2 weeks ago. I've been keto/carnivore for a few years and added Lugol's six months ago after hearing Dr. Elizabeth Bright. I've been doing the 5 drops of 2% as she recommends. I realized I had been feeling increasingly worse and struggling more in recent months. It finally occurred to me to try stopping the meds. Within a week I started feeling better. Now, it's only been a couple of weeks but seems stable so far. I need to get labs redone to see where I am, but going by symptoms it seems like the combination of the fats in carnivore and the iodine have been game changers. I already got off of blood pressure meds, daily sinus meds and reversed pre-diabetes. It would be amazing if my hypothyroidism has been cured, or at least better managed without expensive meds!
60 g or mg of armour thyroid,?
@@jazzsnare oooh - sorry, 1 Gr / 60 mg :)
What is low thyroid and what were your symptoms?
My daughter has had major fibroid issues has had multiple surgeries and it started when she was 20 years old she is 42 now.Thank you for this information I’ve passed it on to her in the last hour. We’ve lived in mid-Missouri all our lives so this explains so very much.
Just to make it simple for everyone: 10 drops per day of 2% iodine tincture (also known non-generically as Lugol's) is 25 mg which is what the doctor is recommending every adult take daily
thanks. I was taking 2 drops of 5%, then had to buy 2% so moved to 4 drops. Have dropped my Armour from 105 to 45 over many months and feeling fine. Maybe I should get my level tested before increasing my dose?
Please also interview Dr Elizabeth Bright - with regards to Iodine and especially female health
Iodine has helped me for the FIRST time since I’m a child (I’m 52) to not have freezing feet and hands. So very sad when I’d always have to say “cold hands warm heart” THAT’S totally not why…..who knew?!! Thank you BOTH, I’m able to go outside on a cool summer night not wanting to put little gloves on, boy I’d look dumb. I also couldn’t knit much because my hands were ALWAYS so cold and numb. My doctor never ever told me, maybe he never checked off the thing to check in bloodwork? It took 6 months of taking 3 drops a day to finally get to the point where I am not having freezing hands and feet. Now what to do with all my wool socks and mittens hahaha! Thanks again!
Me too! I've been dealing with severe cold intolerance for almost a decade. My hands and feet have always been freezing unless they literally can't be (like in a hot bath or in 100+ degree Summer heat). I've been on Iodine for about 6 weeks, and I can finally say that I can TOLERATE the cold. I do get cold, and my feet (not hands) still get pretty cold at night, but it's never that unbearable cold where I can't sleep, can't get comfortable, and can't focus on anything else because I'm so uncomfortable. I can actually just BE a little cold while cozy under a blanket. It's really incredible. It's sad because doctors just don't care to check the thyroid unless you diligently request it, or you get lucky with a half-decently informed doctor. And even then, you might not get the help you need. My previous doctor said my numbers were fine and to just "keep doing what you're doing." Well... I've been 60 lbs overweight despite eating an amazing diet (like Dr. Ken Berry, and my prior doctor!), and I have nearly every Hypothyroidism symptom in the book, and he just said, "The numbers show a healthy woman. I'm not worried." It was so frustrating. Glad you're getting improvements too!!
@@faeleaf174i pop a pinch of Cayenne pepper in everything, cup of tea, food etc and it slowly heated up my blood n got it pumping, no more cold hands.

I was nebulizing iodine and hydrogen peroxide in my apartment 30 years ago. When people started talking about fluoride I decided to look up all the research. We've been told that fluoride treatment strengthen your enamel. All the research said that fluoride weakens enamel.
Dr Ken thank you for this interview, at 55 I was diagnosed with Hypo and struggling with all kinds of health issues until I took my first drop of iodine. I started with nascent iodine fist very low dosage and noticed a difference within days. Then I met Dr Bronstein on the internet read his books. Long story shot I have been on 25mg of lugols potassium iodine for or 15 years and currently 75 I have never felt better and all the issues have disappeared. I also have had my mini schnauzer on 2 drops of 2% iodine he's 16 no fatty tumors or cancer and will most likely die of old age. THANKS for the interview
Thank you Dr Berry and Dr David
May God continue protecting you both and your families
Dr. Berry, you look healthier and healthier! Keep doing what you’re doing because it’s encouraging to many of us that struggle! 🙏🏼
If you are traveling abroad, it is useful to know where to be aware of the addition of fluoride. In some places, the drinking water contains natural fluoride. Natural fluoride is usually in the form of calcium fluoride, which is a more stable compound that does not cause damage to the same extent as sodium fluoride. Here is a list of countries that use fluoride supplementation:
Africa
Egypt: Fluoride is added to the tap water in some places in Egypt.
Asia
Hong-Kong: Fluoride is added to rainwater that is collected and used for tap water.
India: Fluoride is not added to the tap water in India, but many places suffer from a fairly high, natural fluoride content in the water.
China: Fluoride is not added to the tap water in China, but in many places there is natural fluoride in the water.
Malaysia: Approx. Fluoride is added to 75% of the tap water.
Singapore: All public water supplies in Singapore add fluoride. Do not drink tap water in Singapore.
Europe
Eire (Ireland): As the only country in Europe, the addition of fluoride to the drinking water in Eire is mandated. Therefore, avoid drinking tap water in Eire.
France: Table salt with fluoride is on the market. Avoid buying this.
Spain: Fluoride is added to approx. 10% of drinking water. Ask before drinking tap water in Spain.
Great Britain: Fluoride is added to approx. 10% of drinking water. Inquire before drinking tap water in the UK.
Switzerland: Table salt often has fluoride added to it. Look for salt without fluoride if you buy salt in Switzerland.
Czech Republic: Table salt with fluoride is on the market. Avoid buying this.
Germany: Table salt often has fluoride added to it. Look for salt without fluoride if you buy salt in Germany.
North America
Canada: Approx. 45% of Canadians get fluoride in their tap water. The addition of fluoride is decided by local authorities and varies from place to place.
Mexico: Table salt is usually fluoridated, so look for salt without fluoridation if you buy salt in Mexico.
USA: Approx. 66% of Americans get fluoride in their drinking water. Therefore, drinking tap water is not recommended in most places in the United States.
Oceania
Australia: Approx. 70% of the population receives drinking water with added fluoride.
New Zealand: Approx. 50% of the population receives drinking water with added fluoride.
South America
Brazil: 41% of the population receives fluoride in their drinking water.
Chile: Approx. 70% of the population gets fluoride in their drinking water.
Data are missing for other countries in South America.

Our Maker created us and the planet we're on. How do you know it didn't take a very LONG time? Can't both be true? If you're a believer in the Bible, you will notice that Adam & Eve 'fell', so out of the Garden, they are human, with all of the imperfections. Thankfully, our Maker enabled us to think and make decisions. With that decision making, mistakes that hurt us have been implemented. Most in science and medicine are well intended but mistakes are made. If we were all back in the Garden of Eden, maybe we wouldn't need all this stuff to help us feel better.
We need more doctors like these guys and others in this realm of total health through proper nutrition. So refreshing to see Doctors who ask questions outside the AMA box. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️!
The UK fluoridates the water supply. Just to add that to your list.
Distilling water removes fluoride (and just about everything else you don't want in your water). You can buy home countertop distillers fairly economically.
It will also chelate all the minerals out of the water and your body. Be careful. (Yes we have a distiller and make gallons of distilled water for our humidifier.)
Distilling water requires relatively high amounts of energy - so you'll also have to add running costs + do maintenance/clean ups.
An alternative is Reverse Osmosis, where 'dirty' water is pressed through a semi-permeable filter which only allows small water molecules to pass. Some run directly off the water supply, others require a pump - but still lot less electricity consumed compared to a water distiller.
Here’s a list of the top things a reverse osmosis filter can remove:
Fluoride
Pesticides
Synthetic Estrogen
Herbicides
Arsenic
Lead
Pharmaceuticals
Chlorine
One thing to have in mind is that beneficial minerals is also removed - so it is a good thing to add/get a complete water-filtration-cleaning-re softener kit if used extensively for drinking.
They also clean themselves, to some degree - and replacing the filters is easy, though it is a good idea to keep track on how much water they process, as they do have a limited lifetime.
I also see some R.O. kits apparently is not working as advertised, so it might be a good idea to check reviews/specs before buying.
Edit: Forgot to mention they waste a 'lot' of water while running. If water is scarce, it might be possible to do some re-circulation/re-use on the dirty water side, if more pumps/filters are used 'down-the-line'
It removes minerals also
And you can make moonshine lol

I remember reading Dr Brownstein's Iodine book in the early 2000s. I moved and passed my book on to a friend that is interested in natural health. A few years down the road and I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and am Hypothyroid. So I'm now taking Lugol's and Selenium every day. I started dreaming again. Not a lot but some. How long till my eyebrows and other body hair grows back in? I am eating mostly carnivore. I lost 70 pounds, have normal BP and blood sugar. My last A1c was 4.9. Mentally, I feel like I woke up and I would like to do something again. I still don't have much energy and my feet hurt to walk but mentally I sure would like to get up and do more. I'm glad I have the desire to do something. That's a start. Thank you Dr Berry and Dr Brownstein
You also need a rheumatologist to watch your blood markers and check your joints. I have had RA for over 20 yra and my hands are getting more deformed. Its a constant battle to find meds that work. RA damages organs too. Carnivore helped other issues for me, but did not stop the RA progression. Low energy and hurting feet was me and it just got worse as time went on.

This was a much needed interview. So many other doctors need to catch up with this vital information. At least one thing is clear, 150mcg isn't even a drop in the bucket.
Dr. Berry and Dr. Brownstein in one place!!! That was wonderful, thank you both so much!
Thank you Dr Brownstein for your work on iodine and being interested in solving the underlying cause rather than going with the protocols taught in school. I have been a practicing nurse in the hospital setting for the last 16 years and have gradually became disappointed with our medical system in the United States. Way too often patients are seen as the diagnosis they received and the disease is only patched. I speak up for my patients and challenge the treating physicians many times. Unfortunatelly there is not an interest in treating the underlying cause, in general. I have been getting more aware about the potency of natural remedies and how they truly help resolve health issues. I am working to raise awareness in my circle of friends and medical staff. I am really thankful for the information provided in this video. This is truly ground breaking work for our times. Blessings!

I have drops of iosol iodine. One drop is 1.83 mg and the bottle says: Drip one drop in half a litre of water and then take 3 teaspoons (460 micrograms) Throw the rest away.
Ive been doing this for years. Ten years ago I juiced vegetables and got hypothyroid from all the goitrogens in broccoli etc. I gained weight, slept 14 hours every day and in the end had hallucinations (tracers) and distorted colors. Zero energy. I went to the doctor and they saw over 30 nodules on my thyroid and wanted me to go on medicine. I refused and started researching myself and found out about iodine and goitrogens.
First time I took 5 drops of iosol iodine and jugged it down. 20 minutes later I had a panic attack and ran down to the gym and worked out for 3 hours. Felt awesome.
But these years I have actually been underdosing with less than 1.80 milligrams per day??? Wow, all these warnings about the danger.. we are really being screwed by the powers. On a animal based diet for 5 years now. Last 3 years like 95% meat/eggs/butter. Life is better.
And btw I did a new ultrasound last year and ALL the nodules are GONE!
@@davutberntsson7058 Congratulations!! That's awesome
So 5 drops is the right recommendation? Saw Dr. Berrys past iodine video and he recommended 1 drop. I’ve been doing 1 drop for a year and now I can’t figure out how many drops to do. My dropper has no ml lines or numbers on them. It’s clear and I use lugols 2% iodine. Please help me out!! TIA!!

Love Dr. Brownstein. Used to be a patient at his clinic. For years i'd struggled with my weight issues and none of the doctors i'd seen had ever figured it out until i went to their clinic. They really worked with me on my thyroid issues. Would still be a patient today if it weren't for insurance issues. Highly recommend them😊
I agree. Would love to go to other doctors but they will not take insurance. The average person can’t afford out of pocket. Also, a carnivore doc I highly respect said if you have Hashimotos you shouldn’t take iodine ( I take Armour thyroid).
I take Thyroid S, but have noticed since I've been taking iodine, I need much less of it and my numbers have improved.
@@patriciamurray6006same for me! I have Hashimoto’s and was on a very high dose of compounded t3/t4. It had only increased for the past 20 years. I started taking 12.5 Iodoral daily and after less than two months I had became hyperthyroid and had to lower my thyroid hormone. Now I’m on 1/3 the amount of thyroid rx and also my TPO antibodies are down to 35. I’m trying to reverse completely and get off the hormones.
Who was that
@@margaretoconnor874what is Armour thyroid????😮
Love you both and bought Dr Brownsteins book!!!
I can not thank you enough for such an informative, eye-opening interview
Check out the work of Dr Hulda Clark..... oncologist thrown out of the US due to her work way ahead of her time.
Combined with what you are talking about here!!! Wow!!!
Been supplementing with Lugals 2% for over 5 years when I first heard you mention it. I changed to the combination formula with the potassium also. Recent bloods were perfection!
Can you please tell me what you use. My husband is low on potassium, his doctor is focusing only on this because it is below normal. This would help a lot.
@@sophiegiannarakis9358She's talking about the Lugol's 2% Solution with Potassium.
@@sophiegiannarakis9358A good quality potassium supplement without fillers and additional ingredients like fillers and anti caking agents. For iodine I take one drop of 5% Lugol's iodine mixed into a drink each day.
@@sophiegiannarakis9358 also curious
How many drops do you take?
Brilliant interview thank you adr. Berry & Dr. Brownstein!😊!
That was an amazing interview. Thank you
In Australia bromide is banned from flour.
Wow - that's good to know - thanks :)
My endocrinologist when I told her I was taking iodine did a blood test and told me I had to go off of it because I was too high and if would be dangerous! I have hypothyroidism and had breast cancer. Since studying Dr Elizabeth Bright's videos I have been taking it again for about 5 months. I am 77, using Lugol's 5% 3 or 4 drops a day in a glass of well or spring water.
Thanks for posting because I didn't know what "Lugol's" was and didn't know how to spell it from Dr. Berry's pronunciation alone. Where's a good place to get that from?
@TheDavidAllan2 eBay has 5% Lugol's. Amazon I have only seen 2%.
Amazon has it.
@@TheDavidAllan2I get the 5% directly from the Lugol's website. After reading unfortunate reviews from people who bought it elsewhere.
Lugols iodine
Great guest ! Your best so far !
So impress with this Doctor's integrity 👏
You guys restore (some) of my faith in medical. Thanks!
We can trust them, not the majority "health" system.
I did this test through Dr Brownstein over 10 years ago. He sent me back a letter with my results and the amount of iodine I needed. So I’ve been taking this for many years
That's great news. Have you had to up intake on any other minerals like selenium? Also what type of iodine do you take?
I bought Dr. Brownstein's Iodine book many years ago probably around 2013 and brought it to my Doctor's office waiting for him to ask me what I was reading. When I told him it was written by an M.D., he said "perhaps I should borrow it." I also have Dr. Brownstein's book on Salt. Thank you for this interview Dr. Berry and Dr. Brownstein. ❤ Incidentally, that was the last time I was in an allopathic physician's office.
I got Dr Brownstein’s book during Covid. It was SO helpful! I live in IN.
I have been following Dr. Brownstein’s iodine protocol (per his book) for quite a few months for thyroid and fibrositic breasts and have noticed so many benefits! ❤❤❤
Did you happen to eat cruciferous veggies too as you ended up with fibrocystic masses?
Wow! Great timing Dr. Berry and Dr. Brownstein! I’ve been keto 5 years, and carnivore 6 months, and my provider just noticed an enlarged thyroid at my annual visit. I have taken a very small dose of iodine weekly, but I’m gathering it has been way too little. Excited to read the book.
You’d probably benefit from loading up on it .
Google it .
Safely Use a bunch of it over a short period of time to maximize your levels , then maintain it a little bit each day from there .
Book will help you as I got healed with CD and iodine protocol
I never miss an episode of Dr Berry.
All I can say is OMG! This is what a graduating from high school student should be well versed on. I’m not surprised at what I just heard but now better informed, Thank you!
I am so sad that I had no idea that the thyroid nodule I had could be helped with iodine. I had half of my thyroid removed on the advice of my ENT. Thankfully, no cancer. I’m sharing this information with my friends and family. Oh, my husband lost half of his prostate. May have had an iodine deficiency too. UGH!
That makes me angry. My mom went through the same thing and the doctor never once mentioned iodine deficiency. Most doctors today are educated idiots and they only exist to enrich the medical system and big pharma.
"The Iodine Crisis" by Lynne Farrow" - thank you doctors
Thank you dr berry. I hope Dr brownstein will come back on your show soon. He’s fantastic also. Thanks so much.
I absolutely love you guys!!! Thank you so much for all you do!!! I have read Dr B's books and they have changed my life! Thank you Dr B for following your call!!
