One just needs to take their necessary daily Celtic Sea Salt in the middle parts of their day. And continue taking the rest of their supplements in two divided doses per day. The beginning AM and end PM at dinner. Also add a little Celtic Sea Salt to your meals as an added measure if you desire. No worries.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Thanks Ed, So I've realized that minerals are different than vitamins when it comes to taking vit. C according to the above article. The cod liver oil, B vitamins, E and cod liver oil work synergistically with C? This is what I'm understanding. I wish chemistry came easy for me!!!!

It does it by combining with all minerals (good and bad) and making a new chemical out of the combination that is water soluble. This means that it can be filtered out by the kidneys and excreted by the urine pathway. " As a matter of fact the 3 main sources of minerals on my program are already water soluble, which are: - Foods - Good water with natural minerals - Ocean sea salt Therefore vitamin C wouldn't change them any further since they are already water soluble. Also when your body detoxifies like it should, it changes any minerals that are not water soluble into water soluble substances. Also Dr. Bates assumes that when the minerals are water soluble they will all be excreted, and that isn't true at all. If that were true then water soluble vitamins like vitamin C and B complex would also be excreted. Minerals required acid in order to be absorbed and utilized, and that's why we take calcium and magnesium citrate (citrate is acidic) and therefore vitamin C, which is also acidic, assists in that process. So you can take your ocean sea salt, water and vitamin C supplements along with meals as I recommend, without losing any minerals.
