*The Nootropic Benefits of IODINE! | 2024*
In this video, we dive deep into the essential role of iodine in maintaining optimal health, particularly in the production of thyroid hormones. Iodine combines with the amino acid tyrosine to create two crucial hormones: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These hormones are responsible for regulating your metabolism, supporting brain function, and ensuring the healthy operation of numerous bodily processes. The best sources of iodine in your diet come from seafood like kelp, saltwater fish, oysters, and lobster, but it’s also found in foods like milk, eggs, beans, and spinach.

Unfortunately, iodine deficiency is still a problem in many inland and mountainous regions across the globe, including parts of Australia, Canada, the USA, and Europe, which can lead to serious thyroid health issues. Without enough iodine, the thyroid can't produce the hormones that influence nearly every tissue in your body, including the heart, lungs, bones, and immune system. This deficiency also impacts your brain development, mental clarity, and cognitive function.

For those who are interested in brain health and nootropics, iodine is a vital component of your stack. It plays a significant role in how your brain utilizes other supplements, helping to improve mental performance, focus, and overall well-being. Watch the video to learn more about the power of iodine and how it could be one of the most important minerals you can add to your routine!

The problem with iodinised salt is that it usually comes as standard table salt. Which you don't want because it's stripped from useful minerals using toxic chemicals.

I've been having this issue that scars just don't seem to fully heal on me. After ketogenic diet that improved. Now after one full year of Lugal's iodine supplementation, it improved even more. Still there, but improved.

🤔 I used to get serious shrimp 🍤 cravings in high school & College, so much so I’d run to the 7/11 in the middle of the night and eat it out of the can… I just thought it was weird until a nutritionist told me it must have been a deficiency. Thanks for the rest of the story 👏🏻💕🙏🏻

I do Terry Naturally, Tri-Iodine 12.5 with Tyrosine, selenium, zinc, B complex and C. I feel great and was able to stop taking Synthroid that I was on for decades.
I may switch to the 3 mg version.

[everhappy]

Been taking Lugol Iodine 10 drops daily for years.

3 mgs iodine on alternate days has transformed my mental lethargy and procrastination. I've also thrown out Fluoride toothpaste and only drink distilled water, thanks for the tip on taking it early in the day.

I like the format of this video. I just saw this channel on my feed. A very informative and to the point presentation! Thank you.

[cathyjennings]

Great information 😊❤❤❤ thanks!!! We need to betterment healing this year 2024!!! Forward future!!! 😊Thank you!!!

[sladoid]

I take kelp tabs with my coffee most mornings for work. Glad to see this

[MM-oiez]

I'm a little confused, you said that you are lowering/revising your suggested amount to avoid iodine toxicity, but then you give a limit of 1 milligram which is 1, 000 mcg's. Which is Much higher than 50mcg's

Hi David, I appreciate all the great content you’ve been putting out! I’d love to see a video focusing on nootropics that are beneficial for long-term brain health, rather than just quick hits that provide a temporary boost without leaving any lasting improvement. For example, DHA is great for supporting cognitive health over time, while something like caffeine gives immediate energy but doesn't really contribute to long-term brain function. I think a deeper dive into nootropics that help maintain and enhance cognitive abilities in the long run would be really valuable!

[dolf]

This was a tough one! I need to watch this video a few more times...thank you for your work!!!

[hstlx]

I really wish, as a TBI (moderate to severe) victim, who is now naturally low on GABA - and MANY diagnoses because of that and TBI, as much as I know about psychopharmacology there is still things I wish I could ask. Unfortunately I am 34, on Medicaid while I await disability so I could never afford to pay for your time. I just wish I could have a brief email exchange, but don't think I can. My TBI has me in a group home, so nootropics and supplements are allowed. Just need some pointers. Absolutely love and admire your work!

[waynejohn]

Great video, thank you. Please tell me how many ml is the 1mg of iodine recommended per day? Thanks.

Iodized salt is a folly. There's hardly enough to make a dent in deficiency, AND the iodine begins to dissipate within 1 week of opening the container. Better to take lugols, especially because it contains two kinds of iodine. Some cells need one kind, and some cells need the other kind. If supplementing makes you feel unwell, start very slowly, because the bad feeling is usually caused from fluoride, bromide, & chlorine dumping off the iodine receptor sites, which can be too hard on the body if done too quickly. Start at 1 drop per week if necessary and slowly increase. Dr. Brownstein has great info in this.

[blackhillsed]

I put two drops on my wrist about every other day. When I test my iodine levels they are perfect so I know the absorption is happening. Ive used lugol's 5% for about 20 yrs this way.

[sherrysherry]

Great video. Only question is should you drink Lugols or apply to skin or does it matter?

[treehouse]

This has helped me and my family a lot
