According to Dr. Ben: "Absolutely!
Not only do you still need it's more important to take it everyday as you are down an iodine "gas tank". For men we only have the thyroid which I call the "small" gas tank, but women also have breasts "medium" and ovaries "large" iodine gas tanks. Men if you've already had your thyroid removed then it is critical that you take an iodine supplement everyday as you still need the iodine for the rest of your body brain especially pineal gland and adrenals in particular. Women, although you need more iodine fortunately the female body is designed to have more a lot more as you have two other much larger reservoirs of iodine in your body, but if you've had your thyroid removed already it likely means that the other two iodine "gas tanks" are almost COMPLETELY DEPLETED!
Oh no!
You are running on empty because the thyroid when it runs out would borrow from the other two but they ran out too so the thyroid the smallest gas tank ran out of iodine and stopped working (usually from fluoride/fluorine, bromide, chlorine and mercury toxicity) which is likely why it was removed in the first place. If you have a underperforming thyroid (hypothyroidism) or have had your thyroid partially removed then why not try giving it NeuIodine(tm) which will flush out the chlorine and mercury and fluoride deactivating your thyroid and then provide it with the "gas" it needs to start working again? Be sure to use the whole system which includes NeuSilver(tm) and NeuGold(tm) as well as the NeuIodine(tm) so that you can detox safely and you will notice how the system includes a dosage ramping up protocol. If you have already had your thyroid completely removed, guess what you still need iodine! Yes you will need to take thyroid hormones now, but it is also good for you to still take iodine even if you don't have a thyroid. Why? Because the thyroid is not the only part of your body that needs it, also brain including pineal gland, adrenals, and most especially for women breasts and ovaries/uterus. When you are down an iodine gas tank (thyroid) it is all that more crucial that you take a supplement to keep your other gas tanks topped off so they don't run out. Most women who have had their thyroid removed are also critically at risk for breast and ovarian cancer unless they get some iodine to replenish them ASAP! Here is some exciting information and hope, did you know that the breast tissue is very similar to the thyroid tissue? Just as the thyroid processes iodine into thyroid hormones, the breast tissue processes iodine into the fat of breast milk for the baby and serves as a major repository of iodine for the female body. If you give your body enough iodine is it within the realm of possibility that other tissues especially the breast tissue could actually start making thyroid hormone to compensate for the lack of thyroid? That's one area of breast cancer prevention research that overlaps with thyroid cancer prevention and endocrinology that alternative medicine doctor Dr. Ben MS DSM is interested in.
EDUCATION FOR ENDOCRINOLOGISTS:
If you are an endocrinologist (mainstream doctor MD/DO) and if you thing that just because a person has had their thyroid removed and are taking thyroid hormones that they no longer need more iodine then I'm here to tell you that they do. Please check your textbooks and ask your association to update the information. Iodine is not just for the thyroid its for the whole body especially breasts, ovaries, brain including pineal gland and adrenals.
The erroneous and even injurious idea in mainstream medicine that iodine is only for the thyroid has been completely disproven and it's time that endocrinologists in particular update their textbooks. Mainstream medicine has become so specialized that they need to step back and take a more wholistic approach. It's not just iodine for the thyroid, it's iodine for the whole body, brain, adrenals breast and ovaries there needs to be some serious research as to whether the body can compensate using other tissues (breast tissue in particular in women) for creating thyroid hormones even if not thyroid is present.
Whether you have a thyroid or not, you can greatly benefit from the iMedDo Ultimate Fluoride & Heavy Metal Detox System.
