He is the lead author of four studies on effective treatment for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, and a study on effective treatment of autism using NAET. The intake of iodine in America has dropped by around 50 percent in the last 30 years, mostly because flour is now fortified with bromine rather than iodine.
In fact, bromine and other chemically related compounds added to food and water (chlorine and fluorine) may actually block iodine, which is absolutely essential for healthy cell function.
