Guest guest Posted July 31, 2004 Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 Jeanne and all, the topic of extra Epsom Salts is a good one. I've used a second dose a couple of times, but only because I wasn't sure the first one completed the cleansing. I've not heard of problems with it. I think your idea is a great one. TWO CONCERNS I have: 1) One is with adding APPLE JUICE to the diet on a regular basis. I've done it for months BUT I have a normal glucose tolerance curve and many don't. Even so, that sugar load often made me feel NUTS if I drank it too fast. (Apples are only 39 on the glycemic index, better than bananas or other fruit) Diabetes is everywhere though and adding any MORE load of simple carbohydrate. ie, sugar to the diet could seriously contribute to Syndrome X, Type II diabetes and cardiovascular disease for many. I suggest using APPLE CIDER VINEGAR or MALIC ACID tablets instead. You get the dissolving effect without the intoxication of sugar. There has been a 300% increase in Type II in the last three decades, and they can't call it " adult-onset " anymore because people as young as 6 are getting it. 2) Most people are chronically MAGNESIUM DEFICIENT and simultaneously have EXCESS circulating blood CALCIUM. Maintaining a desirable Ca:Mg ratio is crucial to good cardiovascular health as high blood Calcium (people who drink carbonated beverages or who are on HRT) will calcify tissue such as the arteries and people with low Magnesium have huge sugar balancing problems as well as potential for cardiac arrythmia problems (this could be why that one person thought they had a " heart attack " ). FINNS have the worst Ca:Mg ratio, 7:1, in the world as well as the highest heart attack rate in the world. So, in summary, we all need to keep the WHOLE PICTURE in focus as we work on our liver and GB. We don't want to give ourselves DIABETES or HEART DISEASE in the process of seeking cure. I'd like to hear what others think about this, Will, eating liver and onions in Minneapolis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
