Iodine Testing

Iodine/Thyroid/Metabolism Problems

Are you overweight and having difficulty losing weight?

Are you thinking it could be your thyroid or that you are having other hormonal problems?

Some symptoms of Hypothyroidism are:

  • Slow Metabolism/Inability to lose weight
  • Headaches
  • Fatigue
  • Depression
  • Hair loss
  • Trouble Concentrating/Memory loss
  • Dry Skin
  • Joint Aches and Pains
  • Muscle aches and pains
  • Constipation
  • Heavy Menstrual periods
  • Absence of Menstrual periods
  • Low Libido
  • Lowered Immune capabilities
  • Feeling hot/cold all the time
  • Plus many more common complaints

The thyroid needs iodine to produce its hormones responsible for metabolism (i.e. fat burning) and energy production.

95% of people I have checked are low for residual iodine.

According to Dr. Brownstein (MD) author of the book “Iodine, Why you need it why you can’t Live Without it”, he states that up to 40% of medical blood testing for low thyroid is inaccurate.

Have your saliva and urine analyzed today to find out if your body possesses the necessary tools and nutrients to have an optimum working thyroid.

A typical first appointment lasts 2 hours. It will establish health history, goals, analyzing of samples with results while you wait, and a plan to regain the health that you desire.

Subsequent sessions are 1-1.5 hours depending on if you are combining this with other types of sessions like biofeedback.

This is the Quantitative Fluid Analyzer for Iodide. It is an instrument that precisely measures iodide concentrations in body fluids. It will accurately report these parameters:

*Iodine in saliva as an indirect measurement of the interstitial iodine concentration level.

*Iodine in urine as an indicator of the body’s iodine sufficiency.

An excellent source of information regarding iodine historical use in medicine, present day assumption, sufficiency, safety and physiological implications is available in papers written by Dr. Guy Abraham, Dr. Jorge Flechas and Dr. David Brownstein for The Original Internist publication. These papers are available from the web at http://www.optimox.com/pdfs/IOD01.pdf
