My wife took Lugols 5% 2 drops every day (plus the iodine in prenatal supplements) during her entire pregnancy and still takes as the child is 1 year old. Our child is (very) healthy and progressing nicely.
I do have to mention that we had him vaccinated just for tuberculosis (just after birth) and no other vaccination. She supplemented only Lugols, magnesium chloride, prenatal and vit C (Vit C rarely). And we gave him vit D first 6 months.
In my experience, gynecologists and pediatricians are educated poorly to none in modern supplementation and diet discoveries so my recommendation is to take their advices very carefully.
Hi TheTodd :) ,thanks for reply, and your valuable comment from your experience...
Now, I'm pretty close to the childbirth and I have a lot questions about vaccines, and I already Know is very questionable the suggestions in hospitals or the mayority of doctor about vaccines, seems like they want just put a bounch of vaccines at the same time like the best thing to do, without caring about the great amount of consequences for the baby because of it.
I'll appreciate if you have a chance of reply, your comments...
-your wife took the Lugol uninterruptedly? Did she follow Lugol's protocol?
-In your experience which are the most important vaccines for the first year of the baby ?, I suppose that if the mother continues taking the Lugol during lactation it benefits and protects the baby, or counteracts the toxicity of the vaccines ...?
-You know of some source of reliable information about vaccination for newborns
I suppose now the importance of sharing experiences makes us aware of other possibilities....
thanks :) :)
Yes, my wife took Lugols constantly while she was pregnant and one year after birth but after that she tends to forget. Now she takes probably three or four days a week. All this time she is on 2 drops 5% Lugols. She had some kind of flu while she was pregnant and then she took 8 drops a few days. From my experience, more then two drops of Lugols 5% starts a noticeable detoxification after a few days and we didn't want that because of the baby although I cannot state that more than that is bad (for the baby).
What do you mean by Lugol's protocol?
The only reason we vaccinated our baby against tuberculosis was confusion. I didn't know my wife was going to agree to that vaccination because I didn't explain to her, clear enough, the dangers of vaccines and I forgot, (with all that was happening at that time) they administered vaccines pretty quickly in the hospital, before I could repeat my opinion. Also, we had the baby two weeks before term and I was naively thinking iodine would quickly negate every potential vaccine side effect. Later I learned it took quite some time and patience for the iodine to help you all that it can, before you can build a strong immunity. Detoxification is hard and long for most people but toxicity is probably the main cause of modern diseases.
There are many articles on sott.net discusing vaccines and I have probably read most of them plus the articles from my country (Croatia) plus I had interviews with pediatrician and immunologist plus I have seen many TV shows and read facebook discusions and I still could not recommend to some stranger not to vaccinate. The reason is that it's not that simple:
- Vaccines differ from country to country;
- infectious diseases differ from country to country;
- immune systems differs from child to child;
- some vaccines (as I can tell) do protect for some period of time;
- most of people do not know the importance of supplementation and basics of real nutritionism;
- most people put too much faith in doctors;
- most people have zero alternative treatments knowledge; etc.
And yes, our pediatrician was so super eager just to vaccinate that we caught her lying a couple of times regarding the vaccine information. Mostly she lied that no one of her patients had any major side effects after vaccination (we knew that one of her patient-child went into coma for 2 days just 2 days after vaccination), vaccine content and testing length. They just want to get it done and forget about it and you are potentially stuck with a sick child for the rest of your life.
My mother and my grandmother, as children, build immunity by suffering through all the infectious diseases available at that time and they had no problems after that. Back then, it was a normal thing.
Our child goes to a Private kindergarten (state wants immunization proof before you can put your child in a public kindergarten) and there, half of the children are vaccinated and half are not but the kindergarten teacher tells us there is no difference between sickens ratio between the two "groups", as she can tell. Our child was sick only once, since birth, with a mild flu, three days even thought he fairly "mingles" around different people outside. He had elevated temperature a few times because of teething. I put a few drops of Lugols and magnesium in his bath and he still occasionally breastfeeds (17 months old, yeah, maybe it's time to ween him off already :)).
So, as I can tell, it is a risk to vaccinate and it's a risk not to vaccinate. To me, and my wife, all things considering about our lifestyle, it was a far greater risk to vaccinate. And mostly thanks to iodine. Strong immunity is the key.
