I can personally attest that in addition to taking the correct supplements and increasing my protein… Nothing worked better for my menopausal symptoms then getting on high dose iodine
I firmly believe that menopause is a thyroid issue and not a hormonal issue based on my personal experience
I was lucky and I never had hot flashes, night sweats, I never had any of those typical symptoms. But I did have the mental fog, cold, hands, cold feet, dry nails, stations in the nails, hair loss, weight gain, sleep apnea. And it’s interesting because Nearly 70% of menopausal women have sleep apnea, and 60% of people with sleep apnea have an under active thyroid. Not a clinically, diagnosed, hypo thyroid, yet an under active one which flies under the radar in lab results.
I also had aches all over my body and huge muscle cramps
The first thing I did was I in increased my salt intake because I recognized I was low on sodium. The muscle aches and quite a bit of the brain fog went away.
Yeah, when I added iodine, all of the muscle cramps disappeared. Bodyaches disappeared. Hair started growing back more thick.
And I realize probably an iodine deficient for at least 30 to 40 years, and salt deficient for 20 or more
