Violet Femmes (Iodine)

In my 30s I was the fittest, healthiest & happiest I have every been. 10yrs later it was a different story. I lost all motivation to train, felt sluggish, highly stressed, gained weight & had more injuries and health issues then you could think off. I knew something was wrong but no specialist or Naturopath could figure it out.

I changed my job and started working for a health and wellness company and through our Naturopath at the time started taking a concoction of vitamins hoping it would fix me. But to no avail.

One of my team suggested I go and see Lisa as I had nothing to lose.
After my first consultation Lisa suggested I have a Thyroflex test as she believed my thyroid was not functioning. Long story short my results were some of the worst Lisa had seen. At that point Lisa suggested I start taking Lugols. After reading about the product I decided (again) what have I got to lose.

I started using Lugols in December 2017 and found improvements immediately. Within a week of using Lugols I found I had more energy, I wasn’t as stressed, I felt balanced and found I wanted to get back into training. I hadn’t changed anything else apart from adding Lugols into my diet. This was my ‘Hail Mary/Hallelujah’ product.

Lugols has become a part of my everyday routine and the results have been amazing. I feel like I have found the old me again.

Thanks Lisa for your advice and direction through the last 6 months it has been life changing.

I admit I was cautious myself and couldn’t understand all that hype about it. Your (my!) clients were saying that they’re full of energy when on it and ready to die once they stop taking it and I was like “Yeah, right!”

Then I tried it…
The taste is revolting, but it does wonders.
I’m feeling great, thanks!

I put my 17 yo on Lugols and sent him the link to your ‘Lugols’ blog instead of explaining why he needs to take it 😊
He didn’t even complain much about the taste. He takes 3–4 drops a day and was the only one who solved a problem in their latest math test and not only solved, but managed to explain how he did it. Needless to say that he’s not a math person!

My husband also now takes 3 drops (hates it), but takes it nevertheless.

I’m one of your ‘people’ now too.

I took a break from taking my iodine drops for a month or two because I was starting to feel a bit anxious but now my balance is off again and my energy is very very low.

I’ve noticed a real reversal of where I was getting to — having had that break — so I really feel it was working well. (That, as well as the other two supplements that you recommended alongside it to help with liver and so-forth).

High dose iodine has been really beneficial I think. (I’m never 100% sure lol, as I’m a classic Libran).

Certainly in conjunction with other supplements and ‘Divine Intervention’ (one of Lisa’s liquid herb formulas) I have seen great benefits and no longer feel great anxiety regarding my health as I have in the past, prior to seeing Lisa.  The past months working with Lisa I have been on a wonderful journey towards improving my health and connecting with myself.

Improving my thyroid functioning with iodine has slowly but surely resulted in improvements in my immunity, skin, and wellbeing.  I’m looking forward to seeing how iodine will continue to allow my body and mind to thrive.

Iodine Therapy is the most radical thing I’ve ever done for my health. It has given me back years of my life.

I was fat, depressed and barely functioning and the iodine that Lisa prescribed literally bought me back to life!

Here is my latest Thyroid function — the Doctor had told me to stop taking the iodine, which I ignored (based on the work we’ve been doing together). And look! It’s now back to normal… whatever normal is!!!

You’ll see my other results are also much better — iron included!

You know what, this high dose iodine stuff rocks the party!

Thanks soo much — I feel so good — not just the results but generally too — I know that the high dose iodine, iron, the (specific) probiotic and selenium are really working for me

Yay x

PS: I am almost out of the magic stuff 😆 Could I please have some more? I have my spark back and my brain is much much clearer — so I ‘think’ that it is the iodine that is working its magic.

I’ve been taking Lugol’s daily for two and a half years now.
I’m actually the first person I ever recommended this ‘stuff’ to 🙂

During this time I’ve taken anywhere between 2—8 drops daily — that’s between 12mg—48mg daily. (And, that’s 80—320x the current WHO established guidelines.)

Note: Taking 4 drops daily seems to be my ‘sweet spot’.

Within 2—3 weeks of taking high dose iodine I noticed my gait (balance) had improved, my weight was more manageable, that I felt rested when I woke in the morning — and that my energy was consistent throughout the day (and I’m talking from 5—6 am to 9pm).

However, it wasn’t until I’d been on Lugol’s for many weeks, that I ‘suddenly’ discovered that I no longer suffered from debilitating neck & eye pain, and that my frequent headaches & migraines had magically disappeared. And not only that, but that I was no longer ‘hating on’ DMF for approx. 1/3 of the year due to (both him and I) suffering from terrible PMS! Previously I could not shift the ‘black cloud’ that descended upon me at that time of the month. (High dose iodine also helped to significantly reduce my sore boobs premenstrually.)

I’ll admit, I totally did that thing where you get amnesia… once your health concerns ‘go away’. The only reason I ‘suddenly’ discovered all the amazing health benefits of high-dose iodine was because I decided to wean myself off my Lugol’s — thinking that because I also eat a lot of seafood (on most days I’ll eat it 1—3x daily) that I must have repleted by my stores in this mineral. From there, it only took 2—3 weeks for my previous symptoms to return…

To me, this was as good a test as any! Needless to say, I put myself straight back on the stuff. As it turns out, I simply can’t function effectively without my Lugol’s.

Note: There was a time, where I thought I had taken too much iodine… However the problem was that I had gone cold-turkey on my four shots of daily coffee because I was going through a particularly busy & stressful time and decided that caffeine was not actually helping me. (I’m very sensitive to caffeine.) And, the resulting anxiety and heart racing turned out to be a mixture of detoxing and the iodine no longer being blocked by my caffeine intake… I simply reduced my dosage and the symptoms abated.
