Glucose loading cures everything?

@S-Holmes I still find it hard to believe that anyone needs an iodine supplement. If someone excessively avoids foods containing iodine, a very, very small supplement may be essential, just not in the amounts that people take.
We need very small amounts of iodine and excess iodine is more dangerous than iodine deficiency. Of course there are also components that harm the function of iodine in the body and should be avoided.
In my opinion, the positive effects of iodine supplementation are not necessarily a good sign...

Can you provide research on the dangers of non-radioactive iodine? Have you read the paper I posted on the faulty tests and subsequent inaccurate conclusions drawn from those tests?

@yerrag I think you haven't read the research provided by Dr Stephens. But you may find it interesting that when I told him I had gained weight on high doses of glucose he said my body wasn't handling the glucose properly. So I think he would agree with you, at least in part. I DO tend to have high lactic acid (fibromyalgia). I have cut back on glucose for now, but still using it in place of sugar (about 70 to 100 grams a day).
I do think I need to find a way to use glucose more efficiently. Being over 50 is a real game changer. I usually don't take health advice from young people who don't have the same challenges, but most people I know who are my age and older are struggling. My husband is the exception, but he has always been very healthy.
So in conclusion, I believe that glucose in the context of an already healthy liver and good metabolism is helpful. I haven't yet decided if it is helpful to me since I may not have experimented long enough (due to weight gain).

I don't like "research war". A fundamental logical picture is required to understand the full picture.
This is beyond the Wolff-Chaikoff Effect, the potential to inhibit the TPO enzyme, the potential for inflammation, goiter and even cancer due to excess iodine.
Iodine is mainly relevant to the gland but not to other processes such as the conversion of T4 to T3 in the liver.
In most cases, problems with the gland itself exist in women and specifically in pregnant women, since the leading cause of damage to the gland is high estrogen and low progesterone. As well as intestinal problems that lead to endotoxin that can damage the gland, TSH which itself worsens the damage to the gland and more.
In my country, there is much less iodine in food and water and there is no obligation to add iodine to salt and water like in the USA.
I started fixing my body from half a foot in the grave with a temperature of 35 degrees and a heart rate of 47 and today 10 years later I am in better health than ever, I have never used iodine to improve the function of the gland and thyroid hormones.
I also don't eat high iodine content foods. I don't eat seafoods at all, only a little bit milk and no iodine salt.
I have no inflammation, my metabolic rate and thyroid hormones are optimal. I have stable energy every day all day, I have no sleep problems, I no longer have excess fat and I have no problems, even though my days are non-stop busy and I don't even exercise at all. My brain works maybe 10 times better than average in terms of speed, efficiency and clarity.

Does your government add toxic fluoride to the water supply as it does in the US? Fluoride displaces iodine. Bromide is another chemical used in food preparation that will displace iodine.

Definitely. I'm afraid that in Israel everything is worse than in the USA.
We also don't have even one usable dairy product here, or any grass fed meat.
Alternative medicine here focuses on iodine and avoiding substances like fluoride, because they simply don't understand how the body really works.
But why not stop drinking tap water??
I get over 3 liters of water from food and supplement between 1 and 5 glasses of mineral water a week.

@sharko Are you under the age of 50?
Yes. But I sped up the aging process for myself and was biologically probably over 80 before I hit 30.
And all the clients I help today to improve their metabolic rate, are 50-60+ years old.
