Diabetes and Iodine

Published on January 28, 2010

Doctors who prescribe high dose iodine therapy for other diseases such as breast cancer, are finding that iodine can lower insulin and oral anti-diabetic drug requirements in their diabetic patients, sometimes to the point of their not needing any anti-diabetic medication at all. Iodine is needed for proper glucose metabolism and for preventing the cardiovascular complications of diabetes.

Dr. Michael Donaldson says, “Iodine stabilizes the heart rhythm, lowers serum cholesterol, lowers blood pressure, and is known to make the blood thinner as well, judging by longer clotting times seen by clinicians. Iodine is not only good for the cardiovascular system, it is vital. Sufficient iodine is needed for a stable rhythmic heart beat. Iodine, directly or indirectly, can normalize serum cholesterol levels and normalize blood pressure. Iodine attaches to insulin receptors and improves glucose metabolism, which is good news for people with diabetes. Iodine and iodine-rich foods have long been used as a treatment for hypertension and cardiovascular disease; yet, modern randomized studies examining the effects of iodine on cardiovascular disease have not been carried out.”[1]

I’m now Offering a Paid Subscription to Substack.

I’ve been working for years, freely sharing my writings with the world. Yet now I need your support for my work. Google lowered the censorship boom on us five years ago, and it has been a hard road ever since.

We will offer our basic paid subscribers a fifty percent discount on a one-hour consultation with me. Also, you will receive a free copy of my Hydrogen Medicine E-book, And in the future, we will have other offerings.

I have always envisioned a paid subscription area as a kind of club where I can be in direct contact with my readers and them with me. I am inviting all of you to join the paid subscription area in Substack. I certainly would appreciate it if you upgraded to a paid Substack plan.
