#DR BROWNSTEIN IODINE OVERDOSE SERIES#
If you want to see how I got on with the protocol, take a look at my Iodine Deficiency Diaries series on YouTube. I’ve been trying out the high-dose iodine protocol for a couple of months at the time of writing, to treat hypothyroid-type symptoms, with good results so far. Most of them – but not all – claim to have improved their health in this way, sometimes dramatically.ĭetractors from this practice say that it’s dangerous to take too much iodine, that it can damage the thyroid and can trigger autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto’s.
Over the past few years, a growing number of people have been taking doses of iodine ten times the daily amount of 150mcg recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO).
