Introduction to the Clinical Use of Iodine.

By Richard Helfrich

A few years ago, I read research concerning "Iodine Supplementation Markedly Increases Urinary Excretion of Fluoride and Bromide". This research described an iodine loading test and its value at assessing whole body sufficiency for iodine.

The research described the detoxification effects of the toxic halogens, bromide and fluoride when iodine is in an optimal excretion range. Intrigued at the idea of not only measuring iodine excretion levels but also bromide and fluoride levels started me on a journey of researching and learning about iodine deficiency and the importance of detoxing halides.

INTRODUCTION TO IODINE

Iodine deficiency is often synonymous with thyroid conditions particularly with the development of goiters. The research is clear that iodine deficiency can lead to cysts and nodules of the thyroid gland.

David Marine reported the benefits of treating school-aged children with iodine/iodide (Lugol's solution) nearly 70 years ago. Marine looked at two groups: a control group and a treatment group, which received 9mg/day of iodine/iodide. The iodine/iodide treatment group had a 0.2% incidence of goiter while the control group had a 22% goiter-a 110x difference.

This was the first U.S. iodine study showing the decline of goiter formation with the use of iodine. Shortly after this study, iodized salt was introduced which was a great success in eliminating goiter in the U.S.

BROMIDE TOXICITY

Testing iodine excretion levels, I was amazed at the prevalence of iodine deficiency. Why have iodine levels fallen 50% in the last 30 years? What has changed so dramatically over the last 30 years in our environment to cause this dramatic drop. It is well known that the toxic halides, fluoride and bromide, having a similar structure as iodine, compete for the iodine receptors of the thyroid inhibiting iodine absorption.

After testing 95% of the results were iodine deficient. I have noticed those people with chronic illnesses, from autoimmune disorders to cancer; often have lower iodine levels as compared to relatively healthy patients.

An additive that is found in the citrus flavored type sodas or drinks and power drinks is the additive Brominated Vegetable Oil or BVO. The real kicker in all this is that BVO has actually been banned in over 100 countries, and even the FDA considers this additive as unsafe, yet, so far, no measures have been taken to ban it's usage in this country.

Brominated Vegetable Oil, has as it's composition the element of bromine in which, believe it or not, the vapors of bromine are considered both corrosive and toxic. The chemical bromine is used for a number of products, from one of the chemicals that treat surfaces for light-sensitive photographic printing papers, as an additive for gasoline, to agricultural fumigants. At one time, bromine was even used to make sedatives, but then the FDA banned its usage around 1975, as it was found to trigger a whole host of psychiatric disorders.

Why is BVO used in certain drinks? Brominated Vegetable Oil are used in citrus type drinks to stabilize the citrus oils to prevent them from separating, giving them a more unified appearance. One can always tell that Brominated Vegetable Oil has been added even if not included on the ingredient label, the drinks will have a rather murky, cloudy look to them, rather than clear. Many drinks containing BVO, do not include it on their labels!

THYROID FUNCTION

Twenty percent of the body's iodine is parked in the thyroid and acts as the spark plug for thyroid function.  With most peoples Iodine levels testing well below 90 (90 being the minimum desired excretion level) and bromides well over 10 (under 10 is considered optimal) it's no wonder so many today suffer with thyroid related illnesses. In fact it is increasingly common to find the average person on some type of thyroid medication.

Because of the elevated levels of toxic halides (bromides) in the environment and in the food supply, iodine levels have not only fallen but bromides have increased ten fold which now compete for the iodine receptor sites on the thyroid. Without iodine the thyroid does not know whether to wind it's butt or scratch it's watch.  Studies show that with iodine loading, the body and particularly the thyroid adapts becoming saturated with iodine while at the same time detoxifying the toxic halides bromide and fluoride.

Using doses of iodine (12.5 - 50mg/day), positive results have emerged, Goiters and Nodules of the thyroid shrank. Cysts on the ovaries became smaller and began to disappear. People reported increased energy. Metabolism was increased as evidenced by having new success in losing weight. Libido improved in men and women. People suffering with brain fog reported a clearing of their foggy feelings. Most importantly, those with chronic illnesses that were having a difficult time improving began to notice many of their symptoms resolving.

BREAST HEALTH

Breast tissue is the second largest storage site for iodine next to the thyroid gland. The relationship between breast illness and iodine deficiency has been reported for over 100 years.

Iodine concentrates in the breast and is secreted from the breast. Normal breast architecture will not develop when there is iodine deficiency present. Diseased breast tissue has been shown to take up more iodine compared to healthy breast tissue. The higher uptake in the abnormal breasts indicates a greater deficiency of iodine is present as compared to normal breasts.

Iodine/iodide supplementation can improve fibrocystic breasts in women with fibrocystic breast disease. In addition those with breast cancer also improve. Nodules and fibrous changes of the breasts significantly improve in a short time period.

You can order (inside California requires prescription) the Iodine loading combination test that includes bromide and fluoride levels. Hakala Labs (hakalalabs.com) provides the urine collection kit which they mail you with instructions, you return to them and results follow in 4-5 days.

BENZENE - Toxic To Bone Marrow

Benzene is a ubiquitous component of the petrochemical era. Present in crude petroleum, benzene is produced from the combustion of fossil fuels. It has been known to cause toxicity to human bone marrow since the late nineteenth century, at high levels destroying the bone marrow machinery responsible for the production of mature red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. When severe, this is a frequently fatal condition known as aplastic anemia. Lesser levels of benzene exposure result in sufficient bone marrow destruction to cause partial decrements in the levels of circulating blood cells, a condition known as pancytopenia.

Benzene is also a known cause of acute myelogenous leukemia, the adult form of acute leukemia, and a more than probable cause of other forms of blood and bone marrow cancers, including non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and acute lymphatic leukemia, the childhood form of acute leukemia. There are recent indications that sub populations vary in their susceptibility to benzene toxicity based upon their metabolic capabilities.

In the latter half of the twentieth century there was a dramatic decline in the allowable levels of benzene at the workplace. To protect workers from this known human carcinogen, the United States permissible standard progressively decreased from 100 parts per million (ppm) to 1 ppm on an eight-hour time-weighted average. There was a corresponding fall in shorter term exposure limits, and an increase in requirements for industrial hygiene monitoring and in the use of respirators and other personal protective equipment. Even more stringent standards have been proposed.

At high concentrations, well above 100 ppm, benzene is also a central nervous system anesthetic-like agent. This effect is due to its solubility in lipids and its other physicochemical characteristics, and it is predictable based upon what is known about analogous compounds such as toluene and xylene. In contrast, the bone marrow toxicity of benzene is a result of its metabolism and this toxicity does not occur with toluene, xylene, and other related compounds that are metabolized differently. In fact, at high concentrations toluene is known to protect against the bone marrow toxicity of benzene because it occupies the metabolic machinery that otherwise would produce toxic benzene metabolites. However, concentrations in the general environment are too low to produce this result. For benzene, outdoor environmental exposure is usually in the 1 to 5 parts per billion (ppb) range in the United States. Benzene levels from natural sources are negligible in comparison.

For most nonsmoking individuals in the general population, it is indoor exposure that is the most dominant source of benzene, often reflecting the storage of gasoline or of benzene-containing consumer products within the home. Gasoline in the United States contains about 1 to 2 percent benzene, and higher levels are present elsewhere. Cigarette smokers inhale benzene directly in tobacco smoke, causing contamination of indoor air with benzene that is then inhaled by nonsmokers. Drinking water supplies are sometimes contaminated with benzene, most frequently from leaking underground petroleum storage tanks. This can also lead to inhalation of benzene through off gassing from contaminated water during cooking or showering. Skin absorption can occur in those working with products that contain benzene, as well as during the refueling of automobiles with gasoline.

As with other cancer-causing agents, it is unclear what level of exposure, if any, can be considered completely safe, or what level might be certain to cause cancer. As benzene is a component of gasoline, a useful solvent, and an organic building block in many chemical reactions, it cannot simply be banned. However, there have been many actions taken to decrease the extent to which the general population is exposed to benzene from gasoline and from industrial effluents.

QUERCETIN & BROMELAIN

(Anti-Inflammatory  and Anti-Histamine)

-Take on empty stomach as an anti-inflammatory / anti-histamine

-May be taken with food as a digestive aid


QUERCETIN is a unique bioflavonoid derived from plant sources. In human cell culture studies, quercetin has been shown to inhibit histamine release. Bromelain is a pineapple-derived enzyme that improves quercetin absorption. Magnesium ascorbate has been added to detoxify histamine. Studies have also shown quercetin and bromelain to have anti-inflammatory properties.

* Quercetin prevents the formation of allergic, inflammatory mediators like histamine, serotonin and PGE2 (negative eicosanoids) which sensitize pain receptors. 

* Quercetin acts in the same way as aspirin but without knocking out the positive eicosanoids that promote positive immune response (natural killer cell) activity that aspirin inhibits.

* Quercetin is a potent inhibitor of histamine thereby providing relief to chronic asthma suffers by stabilizing the membrane of basophiles and mast cells. 

BROMELAIN is a potent digestive enzyme derived from pineapple, and it breaks proteins into smaller peptides for better assimilation.  It is an excellent anti-inflammatory for sports injuries, respiratory tract diseases, bronchitis, pneumonia and viral disease.

* Bromelain acts the same way as the protein-splitting activity of hydrochloric acid and begins the breakdown of minerals and trace elements and allows them to act as the coenzymes necessary for the intake of other vitamins and minerals. 

* Bromelain is an excellent anti-inflammatory with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, and all types of injuries affected by inflammation, swelling and pain.

TOP FOUR HEALTH CONCERNS

Over the years in my private practice and especially having the

customer contact in my Boutique Health Store, I have determined

that the top four health concerns today are:

Blood Sugar Issues are epidemic! The average person consumes their

body weight in sugar annually. This has created a cascade of

symptoms from insulin resistance to weight gain. Secondary

symptoms include cardiovascular problems, metabolic syndrome,

nerve, kidney and vision problems. The medication most people are on

to treat both the primary and secondary conditions do nothing to improve
them but just maintain. Addressing the problem is what most people are

desperate to find out how to do. You address the primary insulin

resistance and the secondary symptoms disappear. I have created a

number of products to help achieve this goal.

Cholesterol is the next big concern. Most people do not realize that

a cholesterol problem is a liver problem. The liver performs 500

different jobs in the body daily. It is the filter that everything you ingest

has to go through in order to get into the body, this is called the first pass

in the body. Most people, based on the thousands of blood work results

I have reviewed have a liver functioning capacity somewhere between

50 and 70 percent. When the liver cannot perform all of its tasks on a

daily basis the first one to go is the hardest, lipid metabolism or processing

of dietary fats. Now the liver dumps them back into the blood stream and

we begin to see the elevated LDL (bad cholesterol) and Triglycerides

(dietary fats floating in the bloodstream). Medicating with statins lowers

LDL but at the cost of further damage to the liver and weakening the heart

in the process. You can support the liver with its unique nutrient needs to help
restore function and use natural lipid lowering agents to address the symptoms.

Stress related weight gain and adrenal exhaust is definitely number three.

Years of running on adrenaline from our busy lives leads to a constant

flow of Cortisol, adrenaline's partner in crime. When we should be having

3-4 cortisol releases a day, I would say 50% of the people I see are having

20. This leads to elevated cortisol levels which now exert control over the

body’s ability to function. Instead of converting fuel to energy everything

is now stored as fat, waist lines get bigger. It lowers serotonin in the brain

the largest brain chemical in volume so now we are not as sharp, we don’t

sleep properly and require more adrenaline to get us through the day.

Its a vicious circle that ultimately leaves us looking like raccoons with the dark

circle under the eyes and no energy, libido or joy. There are a few simple

steps that can reverse this process very rapidly and give you your feeling of

well being back.

Joint Pain and Arthritic Conditions are fourth place for the most common

complaints. The average person looses three inches by the time they are 80

years old. Bones do not shrink, it is the loss of soft tissue between the joints

that creates this painful, debilitating condition. It does not have to be this

way. Soft tissue is the third fastest replicating cell in the body. The body loves

to build the Mucopolysaccharides and Chondroitins that form the soft tissue.

To do this the body requires Glucosamine Sulphate and MSM, the sulfur molecule

needed to activate it. Take these and the body starts building soft tissue.

There are a number other players that also contribute to joint integrity

but it starts with having the cushioning between the joints.

ZEOLITE

Zeolite is a unique volcanic mineral that can be highly effective at destroying cancer cells. In fact, results have been so impressive, anyone fighting cancer or wishing to prevent cancer should be using zeolite.

Part of what zeolite does is to work on a couple of the basic issues in cancer. It is a powerful detoxifier, and improves the alkalinity of your body. More importantly though, zeolite is a cancer killer as it can, when pulled into cancer cells, activate the p21 gene which tells a cancer cell to die, or literally destroy the nucleus of cancerous cells.

Zeolite is a negatively charged volcanic mineral that naturally attracts positively charged toxins to it, (all toxins are positively charged) and traps them in its cage-like structure. Zeolite's ionic charge turns slightly positive when it is full of the positively charged toxins it has absorbed. Normal cells have a neutral charge while cancer cells have a slightly negative electrical charge. So the now slightly positively charged zeolite molecule is attracted to cancer cells. Once inside the cancer cells, it does a couple of things that can kill cancer cells.

1. Zeolite activates the p21 gene. The function of the p21 gene is to tell the cancer cell to die. P21 acts as a tumor suppressor as it controls cell cycle progression. The activation of p21 appears to halt the growth of tumors by directly suppressing growth signals. In in-vitro studies, all cancer cells tested were destroyed in 72 hour. There are no side effects because it specifically targets cancer cells as it is not attracted to normal healthy cells.
2. Another thing can happen once zeolite is pulled inside a cancer cell. The tri metallic part of the zeolite may destroy the nucleus or the cell or the cytoplasmic organelles. Some cancer cells are destroyed in an outward burst of the cytoplasm. In other cases cells are destroyed when their wall and membrane collapse after the nucleus is destroyed. Most often, after the nucleus and the cytoplasm are destroyed, the entire cellular contents dissipate into the surrounding environment. The membrane of these now dead cancer cells remain intact, but no cellular structures are left.

Again, because of its ionic charge, zeolite is attracted to cancer cells only. It does not get into ordinary, healthy cells.

Ammonia is a toxin that has no place in a healthy body. Thousands of people with liver and kidney disease die every year from too much ammonia in their blood. The average person can handle low levels of ammonia in their blood, but even a low level adds stress to the immune system, and compromises health.

Most ammonia in the body forms when protein is broken down by un-friendly bacteria in the intestines. It is also produced by parasites, yeasts and molds. These organisms produce ammonia both as a waste product, but also as a mechanism to keep their host (your body) in an unhealthy state. And as candida is almost always overgrown and infecting the whole body of someone with cancer, you may well have high levels of ammonia in your body.

A healthy liver converts ammonia into urea, which is then eliminated in urine. A key benefit of dietary zeolite is its ability to remove ammonia directly from your body, which means less stress on your liver and kidneys. A big bonus for your health.

PETROCHEMICALS IN THE HOME

Petrochemicals are everywhere. The average household contains 63 different synthetic chemical products which total approximately 10 gallons of potentially hazardous petrochemicals. Even more surprising is the form which these toxic household substances take. While we may point to that old can of paint or jug of antifreeze, in reality most hazardous chemicals are found in an unlikely place - common household cleaners. Most of today's household cleaners are petrochemical based.

Before the "petroleum revolution," people used natural ingredients like vegetable oils and minerals to make soaps and cleaning solutions. Once scientists learned how to manipulate hydrocarbon molecules, they realized they could create cheaper chemicals from crude oil that would do the same job with less manufacturing effort. Within a generation of this discovery, plant-based cleaners were replaced by mass produced petrochemical products.

If you're using common household cleaners, you're likely to encounter the following chemicals (among many others), and the following effects, while cleaning:

·         Chlorinated phenols found in toilet bowl cleaners are toxic to respiratory and circulatory systems.

·         Diethylene glycol found in window cleaners depresses the nervous system.

·         Phenols found in disinfectants are toxic to respiratory and circulatory systems.

·         Nonyl phenol ethoxylate, a common surfactant (or detergent) found in laundry detergents and all purpose cleaners, is banned in Europe, and biodegrades slowly into even more toxic compounds.

·         Formaldehyde found in spray and wick deodorizers is a respiratory irritant and suspected carcinogen.

·         Petroleum solvents in floor cleaners damage mucous membranes.

·         Perchloroethylene, a spot remover, causes liver and kidney damage.

·         Butyl cellosolve, common in all-purpose, window and other types of cleaners damages bone marrow, the nervous system, kidneys and the liver.

The list could fill a book and includes thousands of other chemicals some of which are so dangerous that they're included on lists of chemicals in the toxics section of the Clean Air and Water Act.

Unfortunately, it's not easy to identify which products contain these hazardous ingredients. While cleaners are the only household products regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission under the Federal Hazardous Substances Labeling Act, they're still not required to reveal their ingredients. These ingredients are considered "trade secrets" so government regulations are actually designed to protect this proprietary information rather than to protect human health or the environment.

When it comes to cleaners, the consumer has little to go on beyond the warning labels that manufacturers are required to put on their products. The labels DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION give only a very general idea about the overall seriousness of the unknown substances the products contain. In fact, a New York Poison Control Center study found that 85% of product warning labels are inadequate. These warnings only apply to the immediate health effects that a product causes and don't address what really happens when we use them over a long period of time.

The average household contains anywhere from 3 to 25 gallons of toxic materials, most of which are in conventional household cleaners. When we use conventional cleaners in our homes, petrochemicals from different products often form hazardous new substances when they accidentally meet. These hazardous substances affect us in many ways. Often they're absorbed through our skin; they can stay suspended in the air for hours or even days after the product has been used; and they can leave residues behind that end up on our skin or on our food. The results can be deadly.

A 15 year study in Oregon, comparing women who didn't work outside the home with women who did, found a 54% higher death rate from cancer in the women who stayed home. The study suggested that chronic exposure to cleaning products played a role.

Each year there are 5-10 million household product poisonings reported - mostly of children. With all these chemicals in our homes, it's no wonder that the EPA found the air quality in our homes to be on average 2-5 times more polluted than the air outside. The EPA found that our indoor air contains 20-150 different pollutants in concentrations 10-40 times higher than those outdoors - much of it from petrochemical cleaners. There are roughly 17,000 petrochemicals available for public and home use of which the National Research Council estimates that less than 30% have been tested for their effects on human and environmental health.

LUTILOX

Lutilox

Lutilox is from a class of naturally occurring molecules known as bioflavonoids. Lutilox neutralizes free radicals such as superoxide, the hydroxyl radical, and other reactive oxygen compounds to help reduce oxidative stress and helps reduce inflammation, regulate hyperactive immune systems, and promote healthy carbohydrate metabolism.

  

 Lutilox is fundamental to:

• Natural And Extremely Potent Antioxidant
• Promotes Healthy Nerve and Muscle Function
• Helps Reduce Inflammation for Aches & Stiffness
• Increases Energy And Endurance
• Promotes Healthy Metabolism of Carbohydrates
• Reduces Aging by Free Radicals
 

FREE RADICALS

Free radicals are highly reactive chemicals produced in our bodies that indiscriminately attack and destroy tissue causing aging, inflammation, allergies, disease, and disrupt organ and enzyme function.

Oxidative stress is a condition that arises when our cells cannot adequately destroy the free radicals we make as a normal byproduct of metabolism and cellular processes. We make more free radicals during periods of exercise, physical and emotional stress. Oxidative stress also results from exposure to toxic chemicals such as smoke, hydrocarbons, pesticides, and smog as well as prescription drugs and alcohol.

TECHNICAL PART OF FREE RADICALS

As a normal part of our metabolism, carbohydrates are converted to glucose and glucose is then converted into ATP. ATP is the universal energy molecule in our bodies. The byproduct of ATP synthesis is Superoxide. In glucose metabolism, oxygen becomes superoxide when an electron is accepted by oxygen to make the ATP. Superoxide is a highly toxic chemical and is normally converted in the mitochondria by the essential enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) into H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), which is then rapidly transformed into water and oxygen by the enzyme catalase (CAT). Hydrogen peroxide is also highly toxic to tissue and forms the hydroxyl radical (.OH), one of the most reactive chemical species known to man. SOD is so essential, if the SOD encoding gene is damaged or mutated, ALS or Lou Gehrig's Disease develops. As we age, the efficiency of both superoxide dismutase and catalyze enzyme systems decrease and then free radicals rise to dangerous levels.

Superoxide, the hydroxyl radical, and other reactive oxygen species are dangerous because they rob electrons indiscriminately from tissues near their site of formation. When free radicals create oxidative stress that is unchecked, ALS, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's Disease (PD), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), Lupus, and Alzheimer's Disease may develop. It is therefore essential to protect our cells from the damaging effects of free radicals that mediate these diseases.

When free radicals react with blood lipids such as low-density lipoprotein, lipid peroxidiation takes place and the lipids begin to stick together and to the walls of arteries forming plaques called atherosclerosis. Further tissue damage and inflammation by free radicals can then lead to a heart attack or stroke.

Antioxidants combat free radicals by giving up the electron they would otherwise rob from nearby tissues. Well known antioxidants include Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Beta Carotene. The antioxidant Lutilox is two times stronger than Vitamin C and E also functions synergistically in the body to restore spent Vitamin C levels which in turn regenerate Vitamin E.

Maintaining a constant level of Lutilox in the body supports health by providing strong antioxidant protection from oxidative stress and the diseases caused thereby.

INFLAMMATION

Inflammation results when immune cells secrete an abundance of messenger chemicals collectively known as cytokines. These cytokines include prostaglandins, TNF-alpha, leukotrienes, histamine, and interleukins. These inflammatory chemicals signal the immune system to produce free radicals and other inflammatory chemicals. When this inflammation is a result of infection, the free radicals and TNF-alpha help to defend the body by attacking foreign invaders. But when the inflammatory response is due to antigens unrelated to infection such as an allergy or pain, the body suffers pain and damaging effects from the inflammatory chemicals and the free radicals.

Lutilox can be a potent anti-inflammatory compound that inhibits the over-production and synthesis of TNF-alpha, prostaglandins, leukotrienes, histamine, and interleukins, thereby helping to prevent the negative effects of allergies, inflammation, and overproduction of free radicals.

INSULIN RESISTANCE

Insulin is required to transport glucose from the bloodstream across the cell wall for fuel to provide energy to our cells. As our body ages, our metabolism slows down, and many cells become less sensitive to Insulin or 'Insulin Resistant'.

'Insulin Resistance' causes our bodies to require more insulin to transport the glucose across the cell wall and increases lipid synthesis leading to Type II Diabetes. Insulin Resistance is also called Syndrome X and is associated with decreased energy (a sense of lethargy) and eventually obesity.

Lutilox can be a potent blood sugar-reducing compound, capable of re-sensitizing our cells to insulin and enhancing the ability of insulin to transport glucose across the cell membrane, and may help to normalize blood glucose levels.
