iodine in the iris interpretation .pptx

Pigment Accumulation: Iridology posits that while the fundamental structure of the iris is genetic, pigmentations can accumulate over time, which can indicate which body systems require support.
Location on the Iridology Chart: An iridologist would consult an iris chart, which maps different sections of the iris to specific organs and body systems. A yellowish or brownish spot in the thyroid area would suggest a potential issue with that gland.
Historical context: One of the "fathers" of iridology, Nils Liljequist, created his iris atlas after observing color changes in his own iris following treatment with iodine and quinine medication for swollen lymph nodes. This observation heavily influenced the development of the iridology concept of using iris pigmentation to assess health conditions.
Holistic Approach: The interpretation of this sign would be part of a larger, holistic assessment, where the iridologist might recommend lifestyle changes, nutritional support, or herbal medicine to support the thyroid gland.

3. What Is Iodine? Iodine is a trace element essential for thyroid hormone production (T3 and T4). It regulates metabolism , growth , and brain development . Found in iodized salt , seafood , and medical antiseptics (e.g., tincture of iodine). 22-05-2025 Dr Suhaa B Naturopathy Diagnosis 3

5. Iodine's Effects on the Body Normal Role of Iodine Absorption : Iodine is absorbed via food or supplements. Thyroid Uptake : The thyroid gland concentrates iodine to produce T3 and T4. Hormonal Regulation : These hormones control metabolism, heart rate, temperature, and neurological development. Excess Iodine : Can become toxic and cause thyroid imbalance 22-05-2025 Dr Suhaa B Naturopathy Diagnosis 5

9. Symptoms of Iodine Toxicity Acute Toxicity (very high single dose): Burning in mouth or throat Abdominal pain Vomiting and diarrhea Metallic taste Weak pulse or low blood pressure Delirium or coma (rare, severe cases) Chronic Exposure : Hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism Goiter (enlarged thyroid) Acneiform skin eruptions Salivary gland swelling Metallic taste or excessive salivation 22-05-2025 Dr Suhaa B Naturopathy Diagnosis 9

11. Step-by-Step Iridological Interpretation of Iodine Toxicity Step Iris Observation Iridology Interpretation 1 Rusty brown or reddish discoloration Accumulation of iodine in the tissue — considered toxic 2 Radii solaris (toxic rays) extending outward Believed to indicate chemical irritation from antiseptics 3 Pigment spots near the thyroid or lymph areas Suggest iodine stress on thyroid and lymphatic drainage 4 Clouding of iris fibers in neck region Seen as a reflection of iodine-related thyroid dysfunction 5 Grayish zones in bowel area Thought to imply iodine disrupting gut flora or absorption 22-05-2025 Dr Suhaa B Naturopathy Diagnosis 11
