Reactions
- Why do some people who are deficient in a mineral have a negative response when introducing the mineral to their body, and why does potassium gluconate sometimes help ease the reaction? Does the potassium interfere and slow down progress with the minerals?
- I'm having a reaction from iodine, what do I do?
- Can I expect to wean myself off the potassium gluconate as my body adjusts?
- What form of potassium do you recommend I supplement with when I have reactions? Is there a brand of potassium gluconate that you recommend?
- I take 1 drop of the iodine. But I have bad headaches. I really want to keep going and take the selenium now. Should I?
- I woke up with a horrible headache. I have taken the potassium iodine for 3 days. Could that be the reason? Should I stop taking the iodine?
- You suggest everyone treats as though hypothyroidism is present from the start. How do you know a reaction is not due to hyperthyroid instead of vitamin deficiency?
- Is weight gain and acne a possible side effect?
- I don't like being on a statin. Are you aware of alternatives that can manage cholesterol levels?
- About two weeks ago, I finally started on the B12. After the fifth day I woke up not feeling that great mentally. Any thoughts on what might be happening or happened?
- Since you recommend taking the minerals with distilled water, how long after we take the minerals is it okay to drink tap or bottled water? Also, do you recommend avoiding tap water altogether?
- I’ve been having migraines the last month or so and never had them before and I was forgetting to take my potassium. Is this what’s causing it you think? I’m taking it now again. Also is there anything that you can think of to help get rid of these migraines?
- How long do the side effects last?
- Is coffee detrimental in any way throughout the program?
- What do you think about hypoglycemia and low blood sugar?
- So my wife is on iodine, selenium, molybdenum, B2. It seems to make her quite tired sometimes. How long is this likely to go on for any ideas? Days, weeks, months?
- My fatigue has seemed to ramp up quite a bit since starting B12. With my low potassium levels, would it be best to go with a lower dose and take it less frequently initially?
- I still have problems with the selenium. Even in very small doses, I have to quit every couple of days. Cause I don't feel okay. Very dizzy, very tired, unable to concentrate. So I want to stay in bed, which doesn't help because I can't sleep. The potassium doesn't seem to help. What do you recommend?
- I made a mistake and I started the iodine and the selenium at exactly the same time on the 13th, my temperature went up to 96 Fahrenheit. I've had diarrhea, fever, headaches, and can't stop sweating (cold sweats) because I started both together. What should I do Jordan?
- I have low potassium in my hair. Is there something concerning about having a low level of potassium?
