Bex that is one of the best articles I have read, my GOD seaweed is VERY good for Candida and Mercury. I think most should read that in here.

Oh yeah I did well on the Algin for a few weeks or so slowly starting and only using it once or twice a day, then I started to three time a day it and take 4 one night before bedtime! From them on I tried it the next night and felt horrible. I think I tried to jump in too quick when going slow was really what was working and not bothering me. Sometimes we don't feel results and think more more more! Then we do and pay for it. Does Algin contain the Iodine and Selenium that the Kelp does though? That seems to be the key, the nutritional value.


Hi Sean,

Yeah, I thought they were good articles when I read them and was only too glad to pass them on. But after hearing about birdlady I am a bit concerned about excess iodine. It's not certain what was THE cause of what happened to her and I personally wouldn't take chances and use iodine in high doses, not at least until I knew I tolerated it and it was right for me.

I am not sure whether algin itself contains iodine/selenium. I think algin is an extract of seaweed that has an affinity for accessible metals in the digestive tract and possibly elsewhere. However, I don't know enough about it. Perhaps Russ would know the nutritional content (if any?).
