Iodum: Hyperactivity Personified
Homeopathy & You|October 2016

The homeopathic remedy, Iodum, is representative of individuals who present with the following persona portrait — chatty, or talkative types, who symbolise mental and emotional agitation, along with ‘that’ typical hyperthyroid state of anxiety and hunger pangs.

Iodum: Hyperactivity Personified

Iodine, as everyone knows, is fundamental for the right physiological working of the thyroid gland. A deficiency of iodine, as everyone knows again, triggers symptoms of muscle weakness, weight loss, mental lethargy, and fatigue. The homeopathic remedy, Iodum, was ‘proved’ by Dr Samuel Hahnemann, MD, with his students and associates. He used the remedy primarily to treat hyperthyroidism [overactive thyroid gland], including its spin-off — hurried metabolism.

Iodum is homeopathic to individuals who present with the following personality portrait — chatty, or talkative types, who represent mental and emotional agitation, along with ‘that’ typical hyperthyroid state of anxiety, accompanied by an impulsive urge to slot in strenuous activity all the time — be it mental or physical. They also seem to be fixated with the urge to keep themselves intensely frantic, yet have no time or inclination to be organised, or fussy with details. This may be accompanied, at times, by heightened anxiety and a strong disposition to complete things in a jiffy.

Iodum individuals also represent eating disorders with anxiety — this may include a fierce temper, especially when one’s spouse, or mom, ‘takes far too much time than required’ to prepare and serve a meal. Hunger, for Iodum, needs to be satiated the moment it is felt. Else, there is bedlam. What also characteristics the typical Iodum physicality is — protruding eyes and eye pain of hyperthyroidism, nausea, with a ‘spotty’ tongue, and excess salivation, great thirst, respiratory problems, enlarged glands, and disproportionate sweating. Iodums feel too much of ‘heat’ in their body; they are also inclined to keep cool with cotton clothing. They find warm climes far too unnerving and also prickly.

The Subtleties of Homeopathic Prescribing

Homeopaths often probe into fears and dreams of patients, because these are the areas of least control. The unconscious level of the mind is where homeopaths partake in the big story of humanity as a whole: of the individual’s life, the archetypical initiations, transitions and thresholds shared by all humanity.
