1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,320
Today, we're focusing on, well, something pretty positive.

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,800
The good changes people are saying they see after they start using iodine.

3
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:13,480
Well, look at some interesting personal stories and then sort of connect those back to the

4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,000
science of how iodine actually works in the body.

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:17,000
Right.

6
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,400
And before we get going, just a quick reminder that this isn't medical advice or anything,

7
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:21,400
and everybody's different.

8
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,800
You know what they say, your mileage may vary.

9
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:29,920
But if you want to connect with other people who are trying out iodine, check out the

10
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:31,800
Facebook group, Iodine for Beginners.

11
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,200
It's a great resource, really.

12
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:34,640
Oh, yeah, for sure.

13
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,840
It's a really good place to find people who are going through the same thing and get some

14
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:39,840
support.

15
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:40,840
Okay.

16
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:41,840
Ready for some seriously inspiring stories.

17
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:42,840
Yeah, bring them on.

18
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:43,840
All right, get ready.

19
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:49,800
So one woman, she said she had really bad fibromyalgia for over 10 years.

20
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:51,200
10 years.

21
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,520
Imagine that pain and just being exhausted all the time.

22
00:00:54,520 --> 00:01:00,120
But then after just a month of using nascent iodine, which is a specific kind, she said

23
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,280
it was like she got her life back.

24
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:06,440
Get this, four years later and she's still feeling amazing.

25
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:07,440
That's incredible.

26
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:11,480
It really shows you what iodine can potentially do, especially when you think about how it

27
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,240
affects the thyroid and hormones.

28
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:18,280
And speaking of hormones, there's this other just unbelievable story about a couple who

29
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,840
couldn't, well, they were trying to have a baby for years and they couldn't.

30
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,920
And then finally they had a baby after they tried the iodine protocol.

31
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:30,080
The specific plan for people who might not have enough iodine in their system.

32
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:31,080
Oh, that's so great.

33
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,200
You know, iodine is super important for fertility, both for men and women.

34
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,720
Okay, this next one, I was surprised.

35
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,320
For real, this guy, he said he used iodine to reverse cavities.

36
00:01:40,320 --> 00:01:41,320
Who knew?

37
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:42,320
Yeah.

38
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:43,320
Right.

39
00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:45,760
And then on top of that, he's saying his eyesight got better and he had way more energy.

40
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:46,760
Yeah.

41
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,640
Well, the thing is iodine is essential for every single cell in our bodies.

42
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:56,160
It affects everything from like the thyroid hormones to how cells make energy.

43
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,160
So if you're not getting enough iodine, it can make a lot of things go wrong.

44
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,760
And if you fix that, well, a lot of good things can happen.

45
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:02,760
Wow.

46
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,360
It's like a domino effect, but with good things happening instead of bad ones.

47
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,380
And there's this other story about this woman.

48
00:02:09,380 --> 00:02:13,920
She had really bad sinusitis, like chronic and these awful nasal polyps.

49
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:17,600
She was going to have surgery and everything, but then she started taking iodoral, which

50
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:22,480
is another type of iodine supplement, and her symptoms just disappeared completely.

51
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:28,620
These stories, they all show us that iodine can really help with getting rid of toxins

52
00:02:28,620 --> 00:02:29,760
and lowering inflammation.

53
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,400
It's super important for the immune system.

54
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,320
And when your immune system is strong, it can fight off infections and heal better,

55
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:36,320
right?

56
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,520
Okay, this next story is all about like doing your own research and taking charge.

57
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,520
Yeah.

58
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:45,760
This guy, he actually got rid of his seizures by adding iodine and some other nutrients

59
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,320
to like his diet.

60
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:53,640
And then he was so like blown away by what happened that he started that iodine for beginners

61
00:02:53,640 --> 00:02:57,440
Facebook group so he could tell people what he learned and help them out.

62
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,020
That's really something.

63
00:02:59,020 --> 00:03:04,400
It shows you how powerful it can be to take control of your own health and look for different

64
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:05,400
approaches.

65
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,160
And it really shows how important iodine can be too.

66
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,160
Yeah.

67
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,440
It's really great to see people like figuring things out and taking their health into their

68
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:14,440
own hands.

69
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:18,600
And you know what, this guy, the one who said he stopped having seizures, it makes you think

70
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,080
like iodine isn't just for the thyroid, right?

71
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,880
It can like do a lot more than that.

72
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:23,880
Totally.

73
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,520
And starting that Facebook group to help other people, I mean, that's amazing.

74
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:28,620
It really is.

75
00:03:28,620 --> 00:03:31,880
And speaking of helping others, there was this other person in the group and they were

76
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,920
saying that their appetite went down after they started taking iodine.

77
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,520
They thought it was because like their thyroid was working better now, so their hormones

78
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,880
were more balanced, you know?

79
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:42,880
That's interesting.

80
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:48,880
Yeah, it makes sense when you think about how iodine affects the thyroid hormones.

81
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,180
And those hormones control our metabolism, right?

82
00:03:51,180 --> 00:03:54,720
So it's not like the iodine itself is making them less hungry.

83
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,160
It's more like it's helping their body work the way it's supposed to.

84
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,160
Exactly.

85
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:03,640
And it's not just about like things inside your body changing either.

86
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,400
Someone else was talking about how their hair and nails got better.

87
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,200
They weren't losing as much hair and their nails were stronger.

88
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,600
Again, it's probably because their thyroid is working better now because of the iodine.

89
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:19,440
It's wild how something so like basic, just making sure you're getting enough of one

90
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,760
nutrient can make such a big difference.

91
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,760
It's like a total body tune-up.

92
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:24,860
It really is.

93
00:04:24,860 --> 00:04:28,820
And this next story, it's a really good example of how everything's connected.

94
00:04:28,820 --> 00:04:34,020
So there's this woman who said that iodine completely got rid of her fibrocystic breast

95
00:04:34,020 --> 00:04:35,020
disease.

96
00:04:35,020 --> 00:04:39,480
She was supposed to have surgery, but after she started taking iodine, her cysts were

97
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:40,800
just gone.

98
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:41,800
Wow.

99
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:42,800
That's incredible.

100
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,760
It makes you wonder how many people out there, you know, they have these health problems

101
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,720
that can be fixed if they just got enough of the right nutrients.

102
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:51,960
It's definitely something to think about.

103
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,200
You know, we're talking about all these success stories, but it's important to remember that

104
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,800
everyone's different and what works for one person might not work for another.

105
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:00,800
Oh, yeah, for sure.

106
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,320
And that's why it's so great that there are groups like the Iodine for Beginners group

107
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:09,400
on Facebook so people can talk about their experiences and learn from each other.

108
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:10,400
Right.

109
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaking of learning from each other, remember that guy who said he got rid of his cavities

110
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000
with iodine?

111
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,800
Well, he also said his eyesight got better and he had way more energy.

112
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,880
It's like he found the fountain of youth or something.

113
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:27,720
But seriously, it shows how important iodine is for every cell in your body to work right.

114
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,040
When your cells have what they need, they can do their job better.

115
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,280
And that means your whole body works better.

116
00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:34,280
Exactly.

117
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:35,740
It's not just about fixing one thing.

118
00:05:35,740 --> 00:05:38,140
It's about helping your body heal itself.

119
00:05:38,140 --> 00:05:42,320
And sometimes that means trying something different like this guy did, you know, instead

120
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,240
of just doing what everyone else does.

121
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,240
Totally.

122
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,580
And his story reminds us that we have the power to like make decisions about our own

123
00:05:49,580 --> 00:05:51,440
health and fight for ourselves.

124
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,100
Speaking of fighting for ourselves, we've been talking a lot about personal stories,

125
00:05:55,100 --> 00:06:00,320
but there's a lot of research being done on iodine and what it can do to.

126
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,320
Oh, for sure.

127
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,560
And one really cool thing they're looking at is how iodine helps the body get rid of

128
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:10,280
toxins like heavy metals and halogens like bromide and fluoride.

129
00:06:10,280 --> 00:06:11,280
Oh, wow.

130
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:12,280
That's interesting.

131
00:06:12,280 --> 00:06:14,240
It makes sense though, because iodine is a halogen too, right?

132
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,040
So maybe you can like push those other halogens out of our systems.

133
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,040
Yeah, exactly.

134
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,400
And that could be why some of these people are having such good results, you know.

135
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,680
Like that woman who got rid of her sinusitis and those nasal polyps.

136
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:31,760
Maybe the iodine helped her body get rid of toxins that were making her sinuses inflamed.

137
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:32,840
That's a good point.

138
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:35,000
And it shows that iodine isn't just for the thyroid.

139
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,320
It can affect all kinds of things in the body.

140
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,560
Like the more you learn about iodine, the more you realize how important it is for everything.

141
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:42,880
It really is fascinating.

142
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,620
And there's still so much more to discover about it too.

143
00:06:45,620 --> 00:06:49,600
So we've heard all these amazing stories about what iodine can do, and I'm excited to hear

144
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:50,600
more.

145
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:51,600
What else have you found out?

146
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,720
There's one story that really, I don't know, just stood out to me.

147
00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:01,720
It's about this woman who had been constipated for years, like chronic constipation.

148
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:06,880
And then she started taking iodine and she said her digestion got so much better and

149
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,620
she started having regular bowel movements.

150
00:07:09,620 --> 00:07:14,440
That's a perfect example of how, you know, fixing one thing, like getting enough iodine

151
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,080
can help with other things that seem totally unrelated.

152
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,080
Exactly.

153
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:19,960
It's not always like a direct connection.

154
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,280
It's more like you're helping your whole body work better so everything starts to fall into

155
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:25,280
place.

156
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,280
Yeah.

157
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:27,600
And sometimes those improvements can be surprising.

158
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,000
Like there was this guy who said the moons on his fingernails, you know, those little

159
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,720
white crescents at the bottom.

160
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,360
He said they started growing back after he started taking iodine.

161
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:37,360
Wow.

162
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,160
I never would have thought of that.

163
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,780
But it's cool how our bodies give us these little hints about what's going on inside.

164
00:07:42,780 --> 00:07:44,600
It's like learning a secret language, right?

165
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:45,600
Totally.

166
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,200
And the more we learn, the more we can take care of ourselves, you know.

167
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaking of taking care of ourselves, someone else said they weren't as sensitive to the

168
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,240
cold anymore after they started taking iodine.

169
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,240
Hmm.

170
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,840
That could be because of the thyroid, you know.

171
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,240
Hypothyroidism, which can be caused by not having enough iodine, can make you have a

172
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,520
lower body temperature so you feel colder easier.

173
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:11,080
So by fixing the iodine deficiency, they were able to get their thyroid working better and

174
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,000
now they don't get cold as easily.

175
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Exactly.

176
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:18,840
So it shows how iodine can make these little changes that might not seem like a big deal,

177
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,840
but they can really affect your everyday life.

178
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:22,840
It's amazing.

179
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:27,280
All these stories, they show how many different ways iodine can help us be healthier, from

180
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:33,460
fixing cavities to making digestion better to like even regulating body temperature.

181
00:08:33,460 --> 00:08:36,980
It seems like this one nutrient is involved in so many things.

182
00:08:36,980 --> 00:08:38,400
It really is remarkable.

183
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:39,720
And we're not even done yet.

184
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,840
There are even more stories to hear and more things to learn from these experiences.

185
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,920
Okay, well, I'm ready to hear more.

186
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:45,920
What else have you found?

187
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:51,560
Well, this one story really, it shows how important it is to pay attention to your body

188
00:08:51,560 --> 00:08:55,720
and be open to trying different things, you know, for your health.

189
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,000
Oh, I'm intrigued.

190
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,000
Tell me more.

191
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,240
Okay, so this person, they said they weren't really big on taking supplements or anything,

192
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:07,000
but then they heard about what Dr. Berry had to say about iodine and they decided to give

193
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,000
it a try.

194
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Oh, yeah.

195
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Dr. Berry.

196
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,320
He's the one who made that comparison about how people in Japan eat a lot of seafood,

197
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,720
so they get a lot of iodine naturally.

198
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,600
It really makes you wonder if we're getting enough iodine from our food these days.

199
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:24,800
It really does, especially considering how modern agriculture and, you know, soil depletion

200
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,960
can affect the nutrients in our food.

201
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:27,960
Right, exactly.

202
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,920
So sometimes we might need to take supplements to fill in the gaps.

203
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:32,920
Exactly.

204
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,640
And sometimes taking that leap of faith can lead to incredible results.

205
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,440
Like this next story, this person said they lost over 20 pounds just by following the

206
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:41,440
iodine protocol.

207
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,840
Wow, 20 pounds.

208
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,200
That's amazing.

209
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,120
And iodine isn't typically thought of as a weight loss supplement.

210
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,120
Right.

211
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,280
But maybe by addressing an iodine deficiency and optimizing thyroid function, it can have

212
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,000
a positive impact on metabolism and weight management.

213
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,500
It could be, yeah.

214
00:09:57,500 --> 00:10:01,560
It goes back to that idea of supporting the body's natural balance, you know, and allowing

215
00:10:01,560 --> 00:10:02,680
it to function optimally.

216
00:10:02,680 --> 00:10:03,680
Right, exactly.

217
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:07,400
And if everything's working in harmony, it's easier to maintain a healthy weight.

218
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,400
Exactly.

219
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,480
It highlights how interconnected our bodies are addressing one area can often have positive

220
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,720
ripple effects on other aspects of our health.

221
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,080
Well, speaking of incredible results, we have another story that really showcases the potential

222
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:24,000
of natural approaches to address even complex health conditions.

223
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:30,200
A person shared that they were able to put their Graves' disease and autoimmune hyperthyroidism

224
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,600
into remission with NEC and iodine.

225
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,080
It's truly remarkable.

226
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,920
It speaks to the power of exploring alternative options and finding what works best for your

227
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,360
individual needs.

228
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,400
Absolutely.

229
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:46,480
It's a powerful reminder that we have more agency over our health than we might realize.

230
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:50,480
And that's where communities like the Iodine for Beginners Facebook group come in.
