"I cannot take iodine. Last time I tried that it caused some type of autoimmune response in my body and my hair fell out. I'm pretty sure I posted pics of it a few years ago when it happened and I refuse to take it ever again. '

That sounds like an unusual reaction to iodine. I have not heard that happening to anyone else. Some people get a die off reaction when taking iodine, as iodine is very antifungal and will kill plenty of candida.

Did you take an unusual form of iodine? I assume the iodine you took was not radioaction. I took Source Naturals Potassium Iodide tablets. Each tablet is 37.5 mg, which equals approx 25 mg of iodine.

I was curious so I Googled iodine hair loss, and I received several results that stated that iodine helps prevent hair loss!

I still say that many benefit greatly from a parasite cleanse. Many find chelation much easier to tolerate after a parasite clense. I guess if their body is quite toxic from parasites, the extra burden of chelation becomes very uncomfortable. Many feel much better after a parasite clense even if they see no evidence of parasites. Many parasites are microscopic. I can tolerate chelation much better now that I am on a high sulphur diet(plenty of eggs, broccoli, garlic, horseradish, etc.)
