it’s been a while! Hoping all is well. Do you recommend supplementing with iodine without a lot of thyroid symptomes? I’m confused because I’ve seen people in the low carb space saying that we’re all so deficient and we need to supplement. I consume no sea food.
My n=1 experience so far was that I reacted badly at first, but I’ve seen iodine experts saying that the more defiecnt you are, the more you’ll react at first. I slowly then increased the dose and did a salt loading protocol as well. A few things I’ve noticed:
- I’m able to eat more per meal, and fats specifically (I tend to undereat and struggle to increase my fat intake).
- My LDL went from 500s to 300s. I concluded that iodine is supporting my thyroid function and hence, improving the LDL clearance receptors. Was expiremnting for 2 months now.
