Here are my thoughts on
this:
It is possible that it may
not be the supplements,
but some mechanism within
the body that is not working right.
If one is able to take in
the vital nutrients thru other means,
such as Kelp or Dulse for
Iodine, or other sources of sulfur,
such as: Garlic, Brocolli,
ect....then the body would be getting
the needed
minerals/nutrients it needs.
This is important because
for example:
Sulfur in necessary for
tissue repair, and Sulfur
enables the transport of oxygen
across cell
membranes, and oxygen is necessary
for healthy cellular
regeneration.
Iodine is another very important and vital mineral.
The thyroids job is to make thyroid hormone, which is secreted into the blood
and then carried to every tissue in the body.
That hormone is called thyroxine and
it contains 4 iodine atoms. Without iodine, your body will not function
properly, period.
Thyroid hormone is essential to help each cell in each
tissue and organ to work right. For example, thyroid hormone helps the body use
energy, stay warm, and keep the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs working
as they should.
it helps to regulate moods, preventing cancer (especially in
breasts, ovaries, uterus, prostate and thyroid gland), preventing and treating
fibrocystic breasts in women, helping to regulate blood pressure, helping to
regulate blood sugar and prevent and treat diabetes, and helping to prevent abnormal
cardiac rhythms. [

From the World Health Organization:
Iodine Deficiency is the worlds most prevalent yet easily
preventable cause of brain damage.
And from:
iodine.imva.info/index.php/iodine-facts/iodine-and-detoxification/Cached
The toxicity of modern life is impacting iodine levels. It
is well known that the toxic halides, fluoride and bromide, having structure
similar to iodine, can competitively inhibit iodine absorption and binding in
the bodyIodine has the highest atomic weight of all the common halogens
(126.9).
Iodine is
the only option when it comes to removing these
toxic haloids from the thyroid and even the pineal gland where fluoride
concentrates, especially when there is a deficiency in iodine in the body.
In an age of increasing radioactivity
and toxic poisoning specifically with fluoride[3],
chlorine and bromide, and even mercury, iodine is a necessary mineral to
protect us from harm for immediately these toxic substances will increasingly
flow out of the body in the urine.
So in reading the above, you can see how
important it IS to ensure the body is getting the essential and vital minerals
and nutrients it needs, to do its job!
There are many supplements that look
good on the label, that may contain toxic ingredients. So this may be a factor
in the body not tolerating a supplement.
There are four main factors that I
commonly see, that play a role in ones ability to absorb nutrients.
1.
Thyroid
is not functioning at par. Thyroid does play a big role in metabolism, This doesnt just
mean weight, it also means how the bodys digestion system is working.
2.
Reverse
Polarity- The cells are spinning the wrong way. Nutrients cannot get into the
cells, and toxins cannot get out.
3.
Mercury
Toxicity- Mercury is well known to block the sulfur pathways, and the detox
pathways. This is another big reason why Iodine supplementation is often quite
helpful.
4.
Many
who are sensitive find it much better to take very TINY doses of supplements
and gradually, very slowly increase the doses.
Last thought: It is not wise to just not
take a supplement/mineral and assume your body doesnt like it, without finding
out the cause and addressing it. Either its the supplement form itself, or its
the bodys inability to absorb the nutrient. IT pays to find out which one this
is!
In many cases, people find they can
tolerate different forms of the same mineral. For example, my daughter can
tolerate raw garlic, but not the organic sulfur crystals. She can also eat
clean tuna and salmon, but does not do well with the omega 3 salmon capsules.
She is still getting her vital nutrients, we just had to experiment some.
Blessings,
Lizzie

Yes, that sort of thing happens with all sorts of things that
are supposed to be good for you -- tumeric, garlic, maca,
spirulina, chlorella, cilantro, probiotics, iodine, etc. For someone
who is seriously heavy-metal poisoned, consuming more of
these may make you worse than you were before!
