http://www.lewisford.info/files/The_Basic_Program_from_Feeling_Young_and_In_Love3.pdf is a pdf document which has information about Thyroid and iodine as well as a lot of other subjects. 124 pages set out in the paper saving mode I favour. I found it in a link from the website http://www.iodine4health.com/overviews/uses/ford_uses.htm
Quote and "mention in despatches": If you are ... ever unfortunate enough to develop shingles, the best supplements for treating it are the same supplements that best suppress and control the herpes 1 and 2 viruses. That includes Lysine, dairy products, Iodide, Progesterone, Thyroid Tissue, Thymus Tissue, Mild Silver Protein solutions, Colloidal Silver, and/or St. John's Wort. http://www.iodine4health.com/overviews/uses/ryan_drum.htm had info on Thyroid function, dysfunction and disease. Links to page http://www.ryandrum.com/thyroid1.html which says Unlike Hashimoto's hypothyroiditis, Graves' disease seems very amenable to successful herbal intervention and control. The three main herbs used are: Melissa officinalis (lemon balm), Lycopus virginiana (bugleweed) and Leonuris cardiaca(motherwort) in descending order of strength and apparent thyrosuppressive efficacy. http://www.ryandrum.com/thyroidpart1.htm says 11. There is an especially vicious class of endocrine disrupters that have become ubiquitous in our human environment. These substances have been used to improve our lives. They are: flame retardants, resorcinol-based glues, and MBTE gasoline additive s used to boost octane after tetra-ethyl lead was banned. The flame retardants, Poly-bromated di-ethyl ethers, PBDE's, were mandated for children's pajamas, bedding, stuffed toys, etc.; they are also in motel/hotel bedding, curtains, carpeting (all wall-to-wall), and upholstered furniture. They are present in all water, soil, and air. They are especially concentrated in mammalian milk, in particular human mothers' milk. They are thyrodisruptive and pass transdermally from clothing into infants and children. It is the regular 8-12 hour constant contact with a child's epidermis which allows the unavoidable slow accumulation of PBDE's. ... Resorcinal, Dihydroxybenzene, has been used therapeutically as an alleged starting molecule for catechols. Industrially, it is used in the production of Rayon and Nylon, and the superb resorcinol/formaldehyde glues, particularly in plywood, chipboard, and sawdust composites for fake wood furniture. As these products are abraided,scuffed, cut, or broken, tiny amounts or resorcinol polymer dust particles are released into our living spaces and are inhaled, where they rest on mucous membrane surfaces where nano amounts are continually absorbed and may be thyrodisruptive. ... . The effects of resorcinol on human thyroids is still being investigated. I believe these resorcinol-sourced particles may be a significant factor in the increasing thyroid epidemic, particularly in the countries where the most resorcinol has been used. Gasoline additives are being breathed by all of us. Many are thyrodisruptive. http://www.ryandrum.com/thyroidpart2.htm said: There is increasing evidence that the unshielded thyroid gland is susceptible to longterm developmental damage and disease subsequent to one exposure to diagnostic dental or chest X-Rays and perhaps CAT scans And http://www.iodine4health.com/overviews/uses/panam_uses.htm says 24. Vegan gas. reducing the gas from eating beans! Macrobioticists have know for years that cooking beans with seaweed reduces bean flatus. If you're soaking beans before cooking them, add 1 or 2 drops of Lugol's, and let them soak for an hour or more. Pour offf that water before cooking, and add fresh water. You'll be surprised at the reduction in resulting intestinal gas! (Technical explanation: There's a naturally occurring enzyme inhibitor in beans which interferes with starch digestion in the gut, producing gas. Lugol's inactivates this enzyme inhibitor.)
