Sometimes you have difficult situations when your client is doing everything you ask for and follow

Sometimes you have difficult situations when your client is doing everything you ask for and follow instructions, and she does not respond to therapy and all tests show that the levels are balanced, and we wonder: what is happening. A year ago one of those cases made me lose much sleep thinking about what might be missing that would make all the difference for this patient, which is exercise, stress fix your diet, and reduce and implement their hormones, but only ISN # 39, t work. I consulted a colleague with whom to share problems in Canada and often asked if I had checked the level of iodine in the patient. Of course, it struck me like lightning, Iodine is an essential trace element required for the synthesis of hormones and that is so high these days. No wonder that the patient was deficient in iodine, was supplemented with an additional requirement and not a miraculous recovery in less than 2 months. br discovered by the Frenchman, Bernard Courtois in 1804. The name comes from the Greek word quot; iodesquot;, which means violet. Iodine deficiency is believed to be widespread throughout the world. br All cells in the body need iodine for proper functioning. All glands (thyroid, adrenals, etc.), especially of iodine necessary for the production of hormones. Many believe that iodine deficiency is the leading cause of breast cancer and other diseases of the reproductive organs as the ovaries, uterus and prostate cysts and cancer. Mainline Japanese population 13.8mg of iodine consumed per day, and Japanese women have lower rates of breast cancer in the world, their diet includes large amounts of seaweed. Iodine levels in U.S. soil have fallen 50 percent in the last 50 years and soil in the U.S. is deficient in iodine. The Great Lakes region has some of the lowest levels of iodine in the soils of the world and as a result, high levels of cancers related to iodine deficiency. I know a doctor in Madison, Wisconsin, which has been quite successful in the treatment of fibrocystic breast disease (cysts in the breast) with iodine / iodine supplements. In one case, a 37yearold with severe fibrocystic breast was completely cured after supplementing with 50 mg of iodine per day for two months. Women with larger breasts need more iodine than women with small breasts. Other medical authorities agree that iodine deficiency can lead to fibrocystic breast disease and / or ovarian cysts. br Iodine can similarly reduce uterine fibroids and one of the first conventional medical treatments for severe fibroids was to paint the uterus with iodine. br Some other medical conditions associated with iodine deficiency are goiter, Graves disease, Hashimoto's disease, fatigue and impaired immune system function. Iodine deficiency during pregnancy can lead to miscarriages and reduced IQ to survive the descent. br The World Health Organization said that iodine deficiency is the leading cause of mental retardation. Iodine also detoxifies the body by removing mercury, fluorides, chlorides and bromides. br If iodine / iodide are so important in the body, why has not there been more research studies published, I believe that because iodine can not be patented there is no incentive for pharmaceutical companies to conduct the research. Iodized salt and iodine supplements usually found in natural food stores contain the iodide form of iodine. There has been little success treating patients with only iodide. It seems the conventional medical establishment again has understated the amount of a nutrient needed for good health. According to Dr. Abraham GE, quot; Of all the elements known so far are essential for health, iodine is the most misunderstood and most feared. However, it is by far the safest of all trace elements known to be essential for human health. It is the only trace element that can be ingested safely in amounts up to 100,000 times the RDA. For example, potassium iodide has been prescribed to patients safely lung daily amounts of up to 6.0 g / day in large groups of patients for several years. However it is important to emphasize that this safety record applies only to radioactive inorganic iodine / iodide, not to organic iodine containing drugs and to radioiodides quot;. br shellfish and marine plants such as kelp (seaweed) are good dietary sources of iodine but few people in the U.S. consume enough of these foods. br Summary of conditions in response to supplementation of iodine: fibrocystic breasts, polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, cognitive dysfunction (brain fog), diabetes, heart rhythm problems, including atrial FIB, and prevention of breast cancer. Iodine is depleted by: fluorine, chlorine, bromine, thyroid hormone, pesticides. br now routine testing for iodine deficiency. When not responding to hormone therapy can only have a deficiency of iodine. If you have questions, call me, my job is to help women regain their lives. br My name is Frank Nuber, I am a pharmacist.

This was the beginning ... 7.30 pmThis was 3 hours laterAnd

This was the beginning ... 7.30 pmThis was 3 hours laterAnd this is when I woke up the next day, 15 hours after application.Ok, so mom called and suggested I should try my iodine, because even if my blood test of thyroid were Tickety boo ... my iodine no. So I did the test ... and interesting. Here are some pictures and what did.Test 1 so happened within 24 hours ... definitely. I thought I should do it again to dismiss the fact that there may be infected leaves over night.Test 2 and now I'm at 10 hrs in the second test ... in the other arm. Has disappeared almost completely. So it seems that iodine deficiency can be ... great! You can answer some questions re my fertility and being able to maintain a pregnancy, breast fibroids, endometriosis and cysts. Therefore, it could take much of the story ... but now I have to deal with the GP ... already thinks I'm nuts and try to get him to support me with my iodine to test how they choose .. and that there is a blood test.If you want to do this in a small bottle of home.Buy (cost me 98p from Tescos) Tincture of iodine ... things orange. Paint a 2x2 inch square inside arm.Take note of each hour and write or photograph of the differences you notice. Include in your notes when it starts to fade and when it is gone completely. Becareful as some people have reactions to things. I have a little spicy ... but that's it.If the patch disappears within 24 hours ... have to be seen despite thyroid tests may be acceptable. If your patch disappears in 10 hours or less ... suggests that you are definitely deficient. I would also suggest that you help with the preparation of the dose of iodine to correct the deficiency. It's not as simple as taking a pill and be done with it. You have to prepare one dose and repeat the test. Proof that you should probably look into getting the patch, if it disappears, is a urine test for iodine load. What they do is give about 50 mg of iodine and will have to pee in a cup on the hour, every hour. Your urine will be tested after a period of 24 hours of collection and will determine how much to hold and segregate. Apparently, if secreted more than 90%, then you're well, your body has enough. If the body retains more and lose less than 90%, then you have a degree of deficiency Iodine.It worth getting checked out as it plays an important role in our bodies. Hope this helps You.Good luck, may even put my test 2 shots in here too to show the XX results.Jodie br br

Another common symptom is perimenopause uterine fibroids. Approximately 40 percent of women with fibroids before midlife, and usually are donrsquo; cause problems t. However, fibroid removal accounts for almost one third of all hysterectomies performed annually in the United States, many of which are completely unnecessary. The fact is that fibroids is likely that many will be reduced and may even disappear with menopause.As with estrogen dominance, premenopause other symptoms, fibroids can be largely controlled through diet. It takes a wide range of nutrients to help balance hormones and reduce estrogen levels, decreased cramps and inflammation, and generally improve their physical and mental well being. Increasing the consumption of the foods listed below provide the nutrients needed to produce these grains effects.1.Whole are excellent sources of B vitamins and vitamin E, magnesium, calcium and potassium. Fiber in whole grains absorbs the hormone estrogen, which helps eliminate the body, and normalizes bowel function. 2.Legumes contain fiber and are rich in calcium, magnesium and potassium. I especially like soybeans, that help regulate estrogen levels.3.Fruits and vegetables contain a wide range of nutrients that can relieve cramps, including vitamin C and bioflavonoids.4.Seeds and nuts, especially flaxseed and pumpkin seeds, are wonderful sources of essential fatty acids (EFAs), the raw materials needed to produce prostaglandins.5.Fish contains linolenic acid and is an excellent source of minerals, especially iodine and potassium. Salmon, tuna, mackerel, trout, and are especially good for women with menstruation cramps.6.Oils containing vitamin E help to balance mood, and ease of fatigue and cramps that occur at the beginning of menstruation in women with fibroids. Good sources of oil are sesame seeds and wheat germ.7.Avoid saturated fats, dairy products like yogurt, milk, cheese and curd, SA refined sugar, caffeine and alcohol. br br

Women with breast pain during their menstrual cycle should especially consider the paragraph below dared .========================= === by Donald W. Miller, Jr., MDThere is growing evidence that Americans have better health and lower incidence of cancer and fibrocystic breast disease if consumed more iodine. A decrease in iodine intake, coupled with increased consumption of competition halogens, fluoride and bromide, has created an epidemic of iodine deficiency in the U.S. America.People consume an average of 240 micrograms (mg) of iodine a day. In contrast, people in Japan consume more than 12 milligrams (mg) of iodine a day (12,000 mg), 50 times as many. They feed on algae, including brown algae (seaweed), red seaweed (nori sheets, with sushi), and green algae (Chlorella). Compared to terrestrial plants, which contain only small amounts of iodine (0.001 mg / g), these marine plants have high concentrations of this nutrient (0.58.0 mg / g). When studied in 1964, Japanese seaweed consumption was found that 4.5 grams (g) per day and had eaten a measured iodine concentration of 3.1 mg / g of seaweed (= 13.8 mg iodine). According to public health officials, mainland Japanese now consume 14.5 g of seaweed a day (= 45 mg iodine, if its iodine content, not measured, remains unchanged). Researchers have determined that residents on the coast of Hokkaido eat a sufficient amount of algae to provide a daily iodine intake of 200 mg daily. Marine fish and shellfish contain iodine, but one would have to eat 1525 pounds of fish to get 12 mg of iodine. Health comparisons between the two countries are disturbing. The incidence of breast cancer in the U.S. is the highest in the world and in Japan until recently, the lowest. Japanese women who migrated from Japan or adopt a Western style diet have a higher rate of breast cancer compared with those that consume seaweed. Life expectancy in the U.S. is 77.85 years, 48 in 226 countries surveyed. It is 81.25 years in Japan, the highest of all industrialized countries and only slightly behind the five leaders Andorra, Macau, San Marino, Singapore and Hong Kong. The infant mortality rate in Japan is the lowest in the world, 3.5 deaths under one year of age per 1,000 live births, half the infant mortality rate in the United States. Today 1 in 7 American women (almost 15 percent) will develop breast cancer during their lifetime. Thirty years ago, when iodine consumption was twice as high as it is now (480 mg daily) 1 in 20 women developed breast cancer. Iodine is used as a dough conditioner for bread, each slice of bread contained 0.14 mg of iodine. In 1980, bread makers started using bromide as a conditioner instead, which competes with the absorption of iodine in the thyroid gland and other tissues in the body. Iodine is also widely used in the dairy industry in 30 years than it is now. Now iodized table salt is the main source of iodine in the Western diet. However, 45 percent of American households buy salt without iodine, which grocery stores also sell. And in the last three decades people who do use iodized table salt have decreased their consumption of it by 65 percent. Moreover, much higher concentrations of chloride salt (NaCl) inhibits absorption of iodine from their fellow halogens (the intestines absorb only 10 percent of the iodine present in iodized table salt). As a result, 15 percent of the adult female population in the U.S. suffers from moderate to severe iodine deficiency, which health authorities define as a concentration of iodine in urine less than 50 mg / L. Women with goiters (a visible, noncancerous enlargement of the thyroid gland) owing to iodine deficiency have been found to have a three times higher incidence of breast cancer. A high intake of iodine is associated with a low incidence of breast cancer, and low power consumption with a high incidence of breast cancer cancer.Animal studies show that iodine prevents breast cancer, arguing for a causal association of these epidemiological findings. The nitrosmethylurea carcinogens and DMBA cause breast cancer in more than 70 percent of female rats. The iodine given, especially in its molecular form as I2, have a statistically significant decrease in the incidence of cancer. Other evidence adding biologic plausibility to the hypothesis that iodine prevents breast cancer includes the finding that breast ductal cells, the most likely to become cancerous, are equipped with an iodine pump (the sodium iodine symporter, the same as the thyroid gland has) to absorb this element. Similar findings apply to fibrocystic breast disease. The incidence of fibrocystic breast disease in American women was 3 percent in the 1920s. Today, 90 percent of women have this disorder, manifested by epithelial hyperplasia, apocrine gland metaplasia, fluidfilled cysts and fibrosis. Six million American women with fibrocystic disease have moderate to severe pain and chest pain lasting more than 6 days during the menstrual cycle. In animal studies, female rats fed an iodinefree diet develop fibrocystic changes in their breasts, and iodine in its elemental form (I2), is cured. Russian researchers first showed in 1966, that iodine effectively relieves signs and symptoms of fibrocystic breast disease. Vishniakova and Murav # 39; eva treated 167 women suffering from fibrocystic disease with 50 mg KI during the intermenstrual period and obtained a beneficial effect on the healing of 71 percent (is reference 49 here). Then, Ghent and coworkers, in a study published in the Canadian Journal of Surgery in 1993, also found that iodine relieves signs and symptoms of fibrocystic breast disease by 70 percent of their patients. This report is a composite of three trials, two case series done in Canada in 696 women treated with various types of iodine, and one in Seattle. The Seattle study, conducted at the Virginia Mason Clinic, is a randomized, doubleblind, placebocontrolled study of 56 women designed to compare 3.5 mg of elemental iodine (I2) with a placebo (an aqueous mixture of brown vegetable dye with quinine). The researchers followed the women for six months to track changes in subjective and objective fibrocystic disease. A statistical analysis of the Seattle study (enlarged to include 92 women) has been made, which shows that iodine has a highly statistically significant beneficial effect on fibrocystic disease (p = 0.001). Iodine reduced breast tenderness, nodules, fibrosis, turgidity, and number of macroscysts, the five parameters in a total score of breast examination by a physician blinded to what treatment the woman was taking, iodine or placebo, measured. Line This 36page report, available now, was submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1995 for seeking approval to conduct a larger clinical trial controlled trial on iodine to treat fibrocystic breast disease. He refused to approve the study, saying its principal investigator, Dr. Donald Low, quot; Iodine is a natural substance, not a drogaquot;. But the FDA decided to approve a similar trial sponsored by Symbollon pharmaceuticals. This company is enrolling 175 women in a phase III trial, registered on clinicaltrials.gov. (All women with fibrocystic disease reading this who might be interested in participating in this study should call its sponsor, Jack Kessler, Ph.D., 5086207676, Ext 201 ..) Most physicians and surgeons view iodine from a narrow perspective. It is an antiseptic that disinfects drinking water and prevents surgical wound infections, and thyroid gland needs to produce thyroid hormones and that's all. (When painted on the skin prior to surgery, tincture of iodine kills 90 percent of bacteria in 90 seconds.) The thyroid gland needs iodine to synthesize thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), hormones that regulate metabolism and direct the growth and development. T4 contains four iodine atoms combined with 27 other atoms of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, but due to their large accounts for 65 percent of the weight of the molecule. (T3 has three iodine atoms.) The thyroid needs only a small amount of iodine, 70 mg per day to produce the required amount of T3 and T4. For that reason thyroidologists say that iodine is best taken just in microgram quantities. They believe more than 1 to 2 mg daily iodine intake to be excessive and potentially harmful. Expert Opinion on iodine is now the purview of thyroidologists. Mainstream physicians and surgeons accept their thyroidonly view of iodine and ignore or discount studies that show iodine in larger amounts provides extrathyroidal benefits, particularly for women's breasts. Thus, a major textbook on breast disease, Bland and Copeland's Breast: Comprehensive Management of Benign and Malignant Diseases (2003), no mention iodine anywhere in its 1766 pages. Iodine has an important story and little understood. This factor has played a relatively small role in the formation of the atmosphere of our planet and the evolution of life. For more than two billion years there was no oxygen in the atmosphere until a new type of bacteria, cyanobacteria (bluegreen algae), began producing oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. Cyanobacteria also developed an affinity for iodine. The most likely reason is that these organisms used iodine as an antioxidant to protect against free radicals that races of oxygen (superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical). The study of marine algae, researchers have shown that iodine does this and algae have been found to absorb a greater amount of iodine when placed under oxidative stress. Other researchers have shown that iodine increases the antioxidant status of human serum similar to that of vitamin C. Iodine also induces apoptosis, programmed cell death. This process is essential for growth and development (fingers form in the fetus by apoptosis of the tissues between them) and destroy cells that represent a threat to the integrity of the organism, like cancer cells and infected cells with the virus. Human cells of lung cancer genes are spliced in that improve iodine uptake and utilization of apoptosis and shrink when given iodine, both when grown in vitro outside the body and implanted in mice. Its anticancer function and can be benefit.Iodine extrathyroidal iodine is more important extrathyroidal has other functions that require more study. Eliminate toxic chemicals fluoride, bromine, lead, aluminum, mercury and biological toxins, suppresses autoimmunity, strengthens the T cell adaptive immune system and protects against abnormal growth of bacteria in the stomach. In addition to thyroid and breast glands, other tissues possess an iodine pump (the sodium / iodine symporter). Mucosa of the stomach, salivary glands, and mammary glands are breastfeeding can concentrate iodine at about the same as the thyroid gland (40 times its concentration in the blood). Other tissues that have this pump include the ovaries, thymus, home of the adaptive immune system, skin, choroid plexus in the brain that makes cerebrospinal fluid, and joints, arteries and bones. Today's medical establishment is wary of iodine (as are most natural, not patentable, no pharmaceutical agents). Thyroidologists cite the WolffChaikoff effect and warn that TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) blood levels may increase with an iodine intake of a milligram or more. The WolffChaikoff effect, a temporary inhibition of thyroid hormone synthesis that supposedly occurs with increased intake of iodine, is not clinically relevant. And an elevated TSH, when it occurs, is quot; subcl�nicaquot;. This means that no signs or symptoms of hypothyroidism accompany its rise. Some people taking milligram doses of iodine, usually more than 50 mg a day, develop mild swelling of the thyroid gland without symptoms. The vast majority of people, 98 to 99 percent, can take iodine in doses ranging from 10 to 200 mg per day without adverse effects on thyroid function clinically. The prevalence of thyroid diseases in the 127 million people in Japan who consume large amounts of iodine is not very different from that in USEveryone agrees that lack of iodine in the diet causes a spectrum of disorders that includes , in increasing order of severity, goiter and hypothyroidism, mental retardation and cretinism (severe mental retardation accompanied by physical deformities). Health authorities in the U.S. and Europe have agreed on a reference daily intake (RDI), formerly known as the RDA (RDA) for iodine designed to prevent these disorders, which the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated to affect 30 per percent of the world population. The recommended amount of iodine, first proposed in 1980, is 100150 mg / day. Organizations advocating this amount include the American Medical Association, National Institutes of Health National Research Council, Institute of Medicine, United Nations Food and Agriculture, Committee of Experts of WHO and the European Union Program International Chemical Safety. These health authorities consider an RDI of 100150 mg / day of iodine sufficient to meet the needs of almost all% (9798) healthy individuals.This consensus on iodine intake goes against the evidence to support a number major. This evidence includes animal studies, in vitro studies in human cancer cell lines, clinical trials of iodine for fibrocystic breast disease, and epidemiological data. An intake of 150 mg / day of iodine prevents goiter and the other recognizes the iodine deficiency disorders, but not breast disease. Prevention of breast disease requires higher doses of iodine. In fact, a reasonable hypothesis is that deficiency disorders such as goiter and cretinism, fibrocystic breast disease and breast cancer are iodine (also uterine fibroids). What Albert Gu�rard writes about new truths applies especially to iodine: quot; When you search a new path to truth, you should expect to find blocked by expert opinion. quot; The reigning truth on iodine on the thyroid gland is the only organ in the body that requires this micronutrient, and a daily intake much more than what the thyroid gland needs is potentially harmful. The new truth is that the rest of the body also needs iodine, in milligram amounts of micrograms. Tell that to a thyroidologist and the response shall bring to mind the warning on new truths. These are the four most common formulations of inorganic (nonradioactive) iodine, iodine (I), and with or without molecular iodine (I2): Potassium iodide (KI) tablets, in doses ranging from 0.23 to 130 mg, super saturated potassium iodide (SSKI), 1950 mg of iodide per drop, Lugol's solution, 6.3 mg of molecular iodine / iodide per drop, and Iodoral, each tablet contains 12.5 mg iodine / iodide . Both Lugol's solution and are Ioderal third molecular iodine (5%) and two thirds potassium iodide (10%). Studies to date indicate that the best iodine supplement is one that includes molecular iodine (I2), which prefers.Iodine breast tissue is used for a wide variety of ailments after its discovery in 1811 until the middecade 1900, when he noticed thyroidologists quot; excesoquot; of the amounts of iodine might adversely affect thyroid function. It is effective in gram amounts for treating various skin diseases, chronic pulmonary disease, fungal infestations, tertiary syphilis, and even arteriosclerosis. The Nobel laureate Dr. Albert Szent Gyorgi (18931986), the physician who discovered vitamin C, writes: quot; When I was a medical student, iodine in the form of KI was the universal medicine. Nobody knew what he did, but he did something and that something good. We students used to summarize the situation in this little rhyme: If you know where, what, and why, then, whyPrescribe K and quot; The standard dose of potassium iodide given was 1 gram, which contains 770 iodine.Regarding mg KI and other iodine salts (eg sodium iodide), the 11 venerable edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, published in 1911, he says, quot; their pharmacological action is as obscure as their effects in certain diseased conditions are consistently brilliant. Our ignorance of their mode of action is enveloped by deobstruent term, which means they have the power to expel impurities from the blood and tissues. Most notable is the case of toxic products of syphilis. In its tertiary stage and before this causes the disease as quickly and clearly to iodides, so much so that the administration of these salts are currently the best way to determine if, for example, a cranial tumor be syphilitic or not quot;. The 19 and early 20th century medicine is still used in gram quantities in the 21st century by dermatologists. They treat inflammatory dermatoses, like nodular vasculitis and pyoderma gangrenosum (shown here), with SSKI, beginning with an iodine dose of 900 mg daily followed by weekly increases up to 6 grams per day as tolerated. Fungal eruptions, like sporotrichosis, are treated initially in gram amounts with great success. These lesions can disappear within two weeks after treatment with iodine.For many years, doctors used potassium iodide in doses of 1.5 to 3 g, and up to 10 grams a day, inside and out, to try bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with good results and surprisingly few side effects. There is a case in the medical literature 54 years of age, thinking that the iced tea, drank a quot; prepared casaquot; of SSKI in water that his aunt kept in the refrigerator for her rheumatism. For a short period while consuming 600 ml of this solution containing 15 grams of iodide, an amount 100,000 times more than the RDI. He developed swelling of the face, neck and mouth, had transient cardiac arrhythmias and made an uneventful recovery. Dr. Guy Abraham, a former professor of obstetrics and gynecology at UCLA, mounted what he calls quot; yodoquot Project in 1997 after reading the document Ghent iodine for fibrocystic disease. Did your company Optimox Corp., Iodoral, the tablet form of Lugol solution, and hired two family physicians, Dr. Jorge Arrows (2000) in North Carolina and Dr. David Brownstein (in 2003 ) in Michigan to conduct clinical studies with it. The project hypothesis is that maintaining whole body sufficiency of iodine requires 12.5 mg daily, an amount similar to what the Japanese consume. The conventional view is that the body contains 2550 mg of iodine, of which 7080 percent resides in the thyroid gland. Dr. Abraham concluded that there is a sufficiency of the whole body when a person excretes 90 percent of iodine intake. He devised an iodine load test which takes 50 mg and measures the amount excreted in urine over the next 24 hours. he found that the vast majority of people retain a substantial amount of the dose of 50 mg. Many require 50 mg daily for several months before they will excrete 90 percent of it. Their studies indicate that, given a sufficient amount, the body will retain much more iodine than originally thought, 1,500 mg, with only 3 percent of that amount held in the 4,000 patients thyroid gland.More this project take iodine in daily doses ranging from 12.5 to 50 mg, and those with diabetes, up to 100 mg daily. These researchers have found that iodine in effect, reverse fibrocystic disease; their diabetic patients require less insulin, hypothyroid patients, less thyroid medication, symptoms of fibromyalgia resolve, and patients with migraine headaches stop having them. To paraphrase Dr. SzentGyorgi, these researchers are not sure how iodine does, but something good. Thyroid function remains unchanged at 99 percent of patients. Adverse effects of iodine, allergies, inflammation of the salivary glands and thyroid, and iodism, rarely occur in less than 1 percent. Iodine removes fluoride and bromide from the body toxic halogens. Iodism, an unpleasant metallic taste, runny nose, and acnelike lesions of the skin, is caused by iodine bromide extracts of tissues. The symptoms disappear in a lower dose of iodine. As these physicians point out, consuming iodine in milligram doses should, of course, along with a complete nutritional program that includes adequate amounts of selenium, magnesium and omega3 fatty acids. Done in this way, an iodine intake 100 times the reference daily intake is quot; the easiest, safest, most effective and least expensive way to help solve the care crisis crippling our naci�nquot health, such as Iodine Project leader, Dr. Abraham, puts. People who take iodine in these amounts report that they have a greater sense of wellbeing, increased energy, and the lifting of brain fog. They feel warmer in cold environments, need to sleep a little less, improves skin complexion and more regular bowel movements. These alleged advantages requires further study, as well as those related to fibrocystic breast disease and cancer.Meanwhile, perhaps we should emulate the Japanese and substantially increase iodine intake, if not with seaweed, then with two drops of Lugol solution (or a tablet Iodoral) day.Recommended Readings: Miller DW.

Today a friend of mine has been undergoing the operation to take out your fibroid

Today a friend of mine has been undergoing the operation to take out your fibroid. In two weeks, which also passes through the same process in the same hospital and Gynecology same knife on me. Although it is a very important operation, but still get a knife nerving experience. Nobody would they need to go through it in all its life.Alot of people ask me what is a fibroid I collected some data from the web.What are uterine fibroids Uterine fibroids (also known as uterine leiomyomas, uterine leiomyomas or fibroids) are benign tumors that originate in the uterus (womb). Although these are composed of smooth muscle fibers as the uterine wall (myometrium), which are many times heavier than normal myometrium. Uterine fibroids are usually round or semiround. Uterine fibroids are often described based on their location within the uterus. Subserosal fibroids are located beneath the serosa (the membrane lining the outside of the body). These often appear localized on the outer surface of the uterus, or can be attached to the outer surface by a pedicle. Submucosa (submucosal) fibroids inside the uterine cavity beneath the lining of the uterus. Intramural fibroids are located within the muscular wall of the uterus. Why women develop uterine fibroids and how common are they We do not know exactly why women develop these tumors. Genetic abnormalities, altered growth factor (proteins formed in the body that manages the timing and magnitude of cell proliferation) expression, abnormalities in the vascular vessel (blood) system, and the tissue response to injury have been suggested to play a role in the development of fibroids. Family history is a key factor, since there is often a history of developing fibroids in women of the same family. Race also appears to play a role. The women of African descent are two to three times more likely to develop fibroids than women of other races. Pregnancy and oral contraceptives, both decrease the likelihood of developing fibroids. Fibroids have not been seen in girls who have not reached puberty, but girls rarely may develop fibroids. In general, these tumors are quite common and occur in up to 50% of all women. The majority of cases, uterine fibroids cause no symptoms or problems, and a woman with a fibroid is usually unaware of their presence.What are the symptoms of uterine fibroids Most women with uterine fibroids have no symptoms. However, fibroids can cause a range of symptoms depending on their size, location within the uterus, and how close they are adjacent to the pelvic organs. Large fibroids can cause: pressure, pelvic pain, pressure on the bladder often or even obstruction of urine, and pressure on the rectum with pain during defecation. Abnormal uterine bleeding is the most common symptom of a fibroid. If the tumors are near the walls of the uterus, or interfere with blood flow to the lining, which can cause heavy periods, painful periods, prolonged periods or bleeding between periods. Women with excessive bleeding due to fibroids can develop iron deficiency anemia. Uterine fibroids are deteriorating can sometimes cause severe pain, localized. While fibroids do not interfere with ovulation, some studies suggest it may reduce fertility and lead to worse pregnancy outcomes. In particular, submucosal fibroids that distort the cavity of the uterus are the most strongly associated with decreased fertility. No untreated uterine fibroids pose a risk For the most part, uterine fibroids do not cause a problem for women can be left alone. In some cases, the fibroids cause no symptoms require the elimination or at least close observation. The rapid growth is a reason to look more carefully, since a rare form of cancerous fibroid (called leiomyosarcoma) is usually a rapidly growing tumor, and can not be differentiated from a benign fibroid ultrasound, magnetic resonance, or other imaging studies. However, this type of tumor is less than 1% of uterine fibroids. Another risk of leaving these tumors is the only one that sometimes grow to a size that eventually cause symptoms, which requires removal. If the fibroids grow large enough, surgery to remove them can be more difficult and risky. Sometimes, fibroids are the cause of recurrent miscarriages. If not removed in these cases, the woman may not be able to sustain treatment pregnancy.Surgical There are many ways of managing uterine fibroids. Surgical methods include hysterectomy, or removal of the uterus (fibroids and him). Myomectomy is the selective removal of only the fibroid in the uterus. Myomectomy can be done through a laparoscope, or with the standard open incision in the abdominal wall. Some treatments have involved holes in the fibroid fiber laser probes freezing (cryosurgery), and other nondestructive techniques that do not actually remove the tissue, but try to destroy it in place. Another technique for treating fibroids is called uterine artery embolization (UAE). This technique uses small beads of a compound called polyvinyl alcohol, injected through a catheter into the arteries feeding the fibroid. These accounts obstruct the blood supply to the fibroid and starve it of blood and oxygen. Although this technique has not been used long enough to assess longterm effects of United Arab Emirates compared to surgery, we know that women subjected to the UAE for fibroids have a shorter hospital stay than to undergo surgery, but a greater risk of complications and readmissions to hospital. Studies are underway to assess longterm outcomes of UAE in comparison with surgical treatment. The uterine artery occlusion (UAO), which involves securing the uterine arteries as opposed to involving the injection of polyvinyl alcohol accounts, is currently under investigation as a potential alternative to the United Arab Emirates. br br

I realize that this mission Sexploration will not be an easy task

I realize that this mission Sexploration will not be an easy task. I have to do more than find some new toys, buy some underwear and slap on some lotion to make my sexual energy. br There are other issues, and are abundant, not the least of which is that both my husband and I are overweight. I am also dealing with intramural fibroids that are so painful that I am now bedridden for days. These two items alone makes me feel much less sexy, much less sexual. br My approach is a week to take better care of my appearance, so I feel more sexy. Life becomes so calm and routine after a while, it's easy to forget that the data was so exciting, because while the thought was it. Therefore, I rise to what he was doing differently if I were engaged attitude. br Well, for starters, it would shave their legs, I'd give myself manicures and pedicures on a regular basis, most often wear makeup, dress to impress, the correlation wear under clothing, walking in high heels with more often I care more about being and feeling sexy. br The funny thing is that all I did, they rarely mean for my appointment. The manicure and pedicure I can not believe that one man who cares about that. Underwear on the floor ended in moments of being revealed, it wasn't for him, it was for me! I felt more sexy wearing. br So maybe my 1st approach seems a bit shallow, and it might seem that all about appearances and perhaps a small part it is, but also about the senses, my senses. The sensation of running his hand over my legs without problems while typing this entry, the smell of the cream used to soften hands and feet, the sweet taste of my lipstick strawberry flavor, dress flowing to flapping against my thighs in a windy day, and the pleasant feeling bad knowing that I'm wearing lingerie as complete a transaction in the market. The combination makes me dizzy with excitement! br br
