Hi Adri,

Jaw and back pain do not mean you have calcium and magnesium imbalances, since

those symptoms are usually caused by toxin, which can move around the body.

If you have cal/mag imbalances you would get lower leg and foot cramps, like a

Charlie Horse, and sometimes cramps in your hands and wrist that make them lock

up intensely, called tetany.

Also, if you've ever had those pains or had an injury in those areas in the past

your body will be retracing them as it heals:

had no idea why. Does that mean Calcium or Mag is too high?

+++Hi

There are factors that interfere with calcium and magnesium balance, including a

lack of other minerals. So ensure you are taking the correct amount and kind of

cal/mag and that you are taking 1.5 teaspoons of ocean sea salt per day, and

that you are also drinking good water, which is tap water filtered by a

charcoal-type filter such as Brita or PUR.

Also if you consume too many foods or teas that are diuretic (meaning they get

rid of water) they will also get rid of important minerals.

Foods that are diuretic include green vegetables (some people go overboard on

them), caffeine (coffee, tea, chocolate). Also ensure you are not having any

kind of " green " drinks or products like chlorophyll, chlorella, blue-green

algae, etc. which are also diuretic.

If you take baking soda to settle your stomach, be cautious not to have too

much, since it is high in sodium which is also diuretic, which can throw off

mineral balances. Less than 2 teaspoons total per day may be okay, taken in 1/4

teaspoon doses at a time.

People who like sardines get more calcium since there is 300 mg in every can,

which can also throw off the cal/mag ratio, in which case you would lower your

calcium on days when you eat a can.

Consuming 3 mugs of Mineral-Rich Bone Broth in a day provides plenty of calcium

and magnesium, in which case you should not take cal/mag supplements on days you

consume that much.

If you have any dairy products other than butter, they will also throw off your

cal/mag balance, and as you know they are not allowed on this program, and

that's why I recommend taking the amounts of cal/mag I do. I need less cal/mag

because I'm healthy and can have dairy products.

Minerals can only be utilized in the body if you get the correct combination of

good fats recommended on this program, including cod liver oil (contains omega

3, and vitamins A & D), vitamin E, saturated fats like unrefined coconut oil,

butter, lard, and other animals fats. Of course all of the nutrients work

together, i.e. protein, vitamins, minerals, fats, etc.

All the best, Bee

Thank you very much for your response Bee, my back is better today and I already

had jaw pain in the past so it should be retracing or healing reaction.

All the best, Adri.
