Iodine Supplementation Protocol - Iodine must be always taken with the Co-factors, that's very important!!
The Iodine Protocol
- 50 mg Lugol's Iodine or Iodoral (you may start with 12.5 mg)
Some practitioners may recommend Lugol's solution. Iodoral is the Lugol's formula in tablet form designed to avoid gastric irritation.
Both Lugol's and Iodoral contain both iodine and iodide.
- Vitamin C 3,000 mg per day (more may be necessary to detox bromide)
- 300-600 mg Magnesium (some Iodine Investigation Project participants prefer magnesium glycinate or magnesium citrate)
- 200 mcg Selenium. The selenomethionine version is preferred by many
- 500 mg Niacin (B3) 1-2x a day (NOT niacinamide). Start lower to avoid flush
- 100 mg Vitamin B2 1-3x a day
- Salt Loading Protocol for Possible Bromide Side Effects. Use only unrefined salt like Celtic salt or Himalayan salt
