Antibiotics tear my gut up and I already have colitis bad! So my doc is recommending iodine, has anyone every tried this? He says it gets rid of bacteria. I've had chronic lymes for years and I'm doing a lot better from the antibiotics over the years.

I've not seen anything on taking Iodine for these infections before, but
Iodine does affect the thyroid directly, so please be careful with this!

Miracles,

My LLMD had a compound pharmacy mix me the same thing. He said I needed iodine for brain function, he once gave me a script for iodine drops.

He also told me to avoid table salt and to take at least 1 -2 tsp of sea salt every day.

Wish I could be of more help....

I was told to get Lugol from a compounding pharmacy but it was too expensive. My other dr. gave me Sea Iodine by Life Extension.
