I actually had to take the day off because I felt ill, I suspect from the halogen detox from intaking Iodine in large dosages. I have decided to take the plunge and go for 50 mg of iodine a day. Nate thinks I should only have 20mg a day (probably to avoid my situation where I had to call in sick lol), but if you read his book he himself mega-dosed iodine a few times which likely then reduced his need to continue high dosages (on one day he said he went as high as 900mg DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME KIDS - I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY ER VISITS DUE TO SEVERE BROMINE TOXICITY LOL just saying what he did). Bromine toxicity can kill if you release something on the order of 2-3 grams of it at once (and presumably, a 2-3 gram dosage of Iodine would cause this). While that would make the detox faster, it'll also make you die, so yeah, don't do that. So yeah, be careful going that crazy. I am reading that 50 mg a day for 6 months should saturate most people with at least 90% iodine, at which point you can drop to around 20-25mg probably. You can do urine tests to see how saturated you are, if you want. You can tell if you are 100% saturated if all the iodine you take gets excreted immediately (this is why Iodine toxicity is not really a thing, apparently the body easily gets rid of it compared to the other halogens) in your urine. I may do a test in a couple months to see where I'm at.
Also, had grass fed liverwurst just now and WOW I can just say that it is providing a lot of nutrients I was deficient in because instantly I got clarity of mind, energy, and a stimulation of the appetite too lol. This stuff is probably here to say.
For anyone who has never tried organ meats before - I can definitely say that liverwurst is 1000% better than any other meat, even grass fed beef, for nutrients. I will never go back to any other meats ever again. Liverwurst is the first meat I've ever had (first protein source for that matter) that doesn't make me lethargic after eating it. Super pro-metabolic, even more than gelatin (IMO).
I'm also excited to try out Grass-fed raw milk this weekend.
