Iodine Protects Against Fluoride Toxicity
There
is growing evidence that Americans would have better health and a
lower incidence of cancer and fibrocystic disease of the breast if they
consumed more iodine. A decrease in iodine intake coupled with an
increased consumption of competing halogens, fluoride and bromide, has
created an epidemic of iodine deficiency in America. - Dr. Donald Miller, Jr.
The
toxicity of modern life is impacting iodine levels and in the
countries that fluoridate their water this impact is maximized. It is
well known that the toxic halides: fluoride and bromide, having
structure similar to iodine, can competitively inhibit iodine absorption
and binding in the body. All the halogens use the same receptors in
the body so fluoride’s danger for people is centered in great part on
this fact.
Americans
and Brazilians, who are more exposed to fluoride than other
populations, have a desperate need for more iodine. Taking iodine in
its nascent form is not only the best way to increase iodine
levels in the safest and most effective way possible for adults and
children whose thyroids are already compromised, but it will also
greatly aid in ridding the body of dangerous fluoride, bromide,
chlorine, perchlorates and heavy metals.
In our age of increasing radioactivity and toxic poisoning specifically with fluoride,[1] chlorine, bromide, and even mercury, iodine is a necessary mineral. CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE......
Iodine
is extremely important since the cells need it to regulate their
metabolism. Without it, people are known to suffer from swollen glands
in the throat, thyroid diseases, increased fluoride toxicity,
decreased fertility rates, increased infant mortality rates, and (with
severe deficiency) mental retardation. It has been theorized that
iodine deficiency is a causal factor of ADHD in babies of iodine-deficient mothers.
Iodine
intake immediately increases the excretion of bromide, fluoride, and
some heavy metals including mercury and lead. Bromide and fluoride are
not removed by any other chelator or detoxifying technique.
Dr.
Kenezy Gyula Korhaz states that iodine chelates heavy metals such as
mercury, lead, cadmium, aluminum, and halogens such as fluoride and
bromide, thus decreasing their iodine-inhibiting effects,[2]
especially of the halogens. Iodine has the highest atomic weight of
all the common halogens (126.9). Iodine is the only option when it
comes to removing these toxic haloids from the thyroid and even the
pineal gland where fluoride concentrates, especially when there is a
deficiency of iodine in the body.
The
human pineal gland contains the highest concentration of fluoride in
the body. Fluoride is associated with depressed pineal melatonin
synthesis and this depression increases one’s chance of cancer. Pineal gland (manages or regulates almost everything in our bodies and works mostly at night, in winter days are shorter, more night hours) secretes melatonin (liquid melanin works like an antioxidant) and seretonin (your feel good hormone).
Dr.
David Brownstein says that fluoride inhibits the ability of the
thyroid gland to concentrate iodine and research has shown that
fluoride is much more toxic to the body when there is iodine deficiency
present. Brownstein says that after only one dose of iodine, the
excretion of fluoride increases by 78%. [3]
On
January 7, 2011, the US Department of Health & Human Services
(HHS) proposed lowering the recommended level used in the water
fluoridation program to 0.7 ppm, because of the very high incidence of
dental fluorosis among American children. An amazing 41% of ALL
American children aged 12-15 are now impacted by this condition.
Sodium
fluoride is commonly used as a rat poison. Globalists and eugenicists
have decided to add it to water supplies with the message to the
public that it is good for teeth, despite warnings from the ADA
stating that young children risk a disease called dental fluorosis.
After hailing water fluoridation as one of the 10 greatest health achievements of the 20th Century (CDC), the government is calling for a reduction in the amount of fluoride
it adds to public water supplies, citing its negative effect on teeth
when promotion of healthy teeth is the basic reason given for adding
fluoride to the water.
An August 2006 Chinese study
found that fluoride in drinking water damages children’s liver and
kidney functions. One of the strongest physiological effects of
fluorides in drinking water (e.g. hydrofluorosilicic acid) is on the
kidney, a point to consider in light of increased rates of kidney
failure during recent decades. [4]
Kidney disease markedly increases an individual’s susceptibility to fluoride toxicity.
In healthy adults, the kidneys are able to excrete approximately 50%
of an ingested dose of fluoride. However, in adults with kidney
disease, the kidneys may excrete as little as 10-20%, and young
children may only excrete 15% of an ingested dose-thus increasing the
body burden of fluoride and increasing an individual’s susceptibility to
fluoride poisoning (e.g. renal osteodystrophy).
Scientific
evidence over the past 50 plus years has shown that sodium fluoride
shortens our life span, promotes various cancers and mental
disturbances, and most importantly, makes humans stupid, docile, and
subservient, all in one neat little package.
A Scientific American study
“concluded that fluoride can subtly alter endocrine function,
especially in the thyroid.” The National Research Council of the
National Academies in a 2006 report on page 266 said, “In summary,
evidence of several types indicates that fluoride affects normal
endocrine function or response; the effects of the fluoride-induced
changes vary in degree and kind in different individuals. Fluoride is
therefore an endocrine disruptor in the broad sense of altering normal
endocrine function.”
The
mechanism behind “halogen displacement” was probably best described by
J. C. Jarvis, M.D. (Folk Medicine, Henry Holt & Co., 1958, HB, p.
136), who wrote: “The clinical activity of any one of these four
halogens is in inverse proportion to its atomic weight. This means
that any one of the four can displace the element with a higher atomic
weight, but cannot displace an element with a lower atomic weight.
For example, flourine can displace chlorine, bromine, and iodine
because fluorine has a lower atomic weight than the other three.
Similarly, chlorine can displace bromine and iodine because they both
have a higher atomic weight.” Likewise, bromine can displace iodine
from the body because iodine has a higher atomic weight. A reverse
order is not possible.
European doctors used fluoride as a thyroid-suppressing medication
for patients with HYPER-thyroidism (over-active thyroid). Fluoride
was utilized because it was found to be effective at reducing the
activity of the thyroid gland-even at doses as low as 2 mg/day.
The
regular use of iodine will go a very long way toward mitigating the
damages done in our bodies by the fluoride that we are exposed to. The
Nascent form is the easiest way of increasing iodine levels
for adults and children whose thyroids are already compromised by
fluoride. Nascent Iodine is the atomic form and it is special. Nascent
has the advantage of being in the I¹ atomic (as opposed to I² or I³
molecular forms) form meaning that there is no digestion, no breaking
down of molecules of iodine. It is already broken down through an
electromagnetic process.
For
heavy lifting when needing iodine in large quantities for transdermal
application (painting the breasts daily with iodine for breast cancer
is one example) I recommend the age old Lugol’s formula.
Liquid forms of minerals always seem better than solid pill forms
because the body has an easier time digesting and absorbing liquid
forms with the nascent form ready to be utilized instantly in any way
the body needs. Some tissues utilize iodide and others iodine and the
thyroid always needs atomic iodine to make T3 and T4 metabolic thyroid
hormones.
[1] Fluoride is associated with cancer and it also
accumulates in the thyroid as well as the pineal gland, an important
hormone control center. Dr. Jennifer Luke found out that the pineal
gland which produces serotonin and melatonin was also a calcifying
tissue, like the teeth and the bones, so she hypothesized it would
concentrate fluoride to very high levels. Luke had 11 cadavers
analyzed in the UK and found very high levels of fluoride in the
calcium hydroxy apatite crystals produced by the gland. The average
was 9000 ppm and went as high as 21,000 in one case. These levels are
equal to or higher than fluoride levels in the bones of people
suffering from skeletal fluorosis. Luke hypothesizes that one of the
four enzymes needed to convert the amino acid tryptophan (from the
diet) into melatonin is being inhibited by fluoride. Melatonin is
responsible for regulating all kinds of activities including the onset
of puberty. It is thought that the fall of melatonin levels acts like a
biological clock and triggers the onset of puberty. In her gerbil
study she found that the high fluoride treated animals were reaching
puberty earlier than the low fluoride ones. Considering the
seriousness of a possible interference by fluoride on a growing
child’s pineal gland (and for that matter, elderly pineal glands)
underlines the need for higher iodine intake to increase fluoride
elimination.
