Guest guest Posted August 4, 2002 Report Share Posted August 4, 2002 I wanted to to thank everyone for their advice in regards to my last post on shots and hyperactivity. It seems I received several suggestions for a Calcium and Magnesium supplement to be tried. My question is are there any good liquid ones out there? If so could you share the brand name with me. This is something I have been wanting to try for a while. My pediatrician kind of scared me off though by telling me that too much calcium could cause kidney stones, and that the body does not readily digest the supplements any way. My son does get calcium through his milk substitute, but if he is deficient he should need the extra amount. When he got his hair analysis, he was not on a dairy free diet, and was eating even more sources of calcium than he does now. It seems reasonable that now he could even be more deficient. He is more hyper at times now. Thanks everyone, Donna ------------------------------------------- Introducing NetZero Long Distance Unlimited Long Distance only $29.95/ month!

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2002 Report Share Posted August 4, 2002 Dear Donna, Don't let your Doctor scare you off of calcium. Calcium is the base mineral which all humans need. The probelm is that you have to know which calcium. All calciuns are not the same. I did a Course with Dr. Francis Beddoe, DDS, in 1995 in California, and it changed my life when I larned about Calcium. He teaches the Reams Method which stresses the need for a Body Chemistry analysis to know the kind of minerals the body needs. If you want help with knowing how to test your child for the kind of calcium he needs to take, write Dr. Beddoe and request his " Calcium Kit " which teaches you how to test for the Calcium you need to be taking. Write him at: eaglesnest49@... Roland [ ] Calcium/Magnesium supplement I wanted to to thank everyone for their advice in regards to my last post on shots and hyperactivity.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2002 Report Share Posted August 4, 2002 Omega Nutrition has something called Calcium-Magnesium Liquid. It had a pretty good taste and would usually calm my son down quite a bit within 24 hours. http://www.omeganutrition.com/ > I wanted to to thank everyone for their advice in regards to my last post on > shots and hyperactivity.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2002 Report Share Posted August 4, 2002 Dear Gaylen, It is a pH test of the urine and saliva which is correlated to the *type* of calcium deficiency. The Booklet which comes with the pH testing tape outlines the calcium needs by age, and sex. You can do all of it yourself. The cost of the Calcium Kit is under $40 USD. Hope this helps.

I have heard that too much calcium can make you too alkaline but didn't know that it varied by type. Also, I imagine high-acid folks need more calcium, but what does the book say to do with a person who is heavily alkaline? Gaylen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirkman's calcium stops up my son as though I were putting a plug in him. I definitely have to learn more about this! Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Yes, Gaylen, Different Calcium types do cause alkalinity. And alkalinity causes constipation, which disrupts the rate of digestion and there is a whole chain reaction which leads to problems in health. The *anionic* calciums cause alkalinity and the *cationic* calciums cause diarrhea, so you have to know how to balance your calcium intake. All of that is explained in the Calcium Kit, and you can test yourself or your child easily to know which ones to take or switch to. I strongly encourage you to buy it. The issue of the role of calcium is a *key* factor in this whole autism issue, as without calcium, the body cannot absorb the other minerals, and thimerosal readily affects the absorbption of calcium, potassium and Vitamin A. And let me say this: The Calcium/Magnesium mix (in capsules) is a no-no according to Dr. Beddoe, so be careful with this with your child. Magnesium should be used separately.

Mercury toxicity affects mineral processing in general for MOST (but not all) people who are mercury toxic. > And let me say this: The Calcium/Magnesium mix (in capsules) is a no-no according to Dr. Beddoe, so be careful with this with your child.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Dear Andy, YES, you are right: The category " anionic* calcium is not listed in traditional Texts. However, the proof of Dr. Carey Ream's theories in Biological Ionization is in testing it out. I know it saved my life. Not because some show improvement with some things mean that the thing, such as Calcium/magnesium combo, is good. This is what they say for the MMR Vaccine, remember!! It may show improvement now, but you pay the consequences after. If you send me your address, I will mail you a book, gratis, that will explain the Urine and Saliva Test Program, which uses Calcium as the base mineral.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Michele, You may wish to use MinCOL, and Calciun Gluconate to be safe. Or you may which to also try the Coral Calcium. You can locate a " Coral Calcium " supplier ONLINE -- do a Google search for " coral calcium " You can get MinCOL which was developed by Dr. Reams himself, from Daily Manufacturing in North Carolina: www.daily-mfg.com But I strongly urge you to get the CALCIUM KIT. You cheat yourself if you do not! I speak from personal experience with this thing. I have seen many people helped with it.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Dear " kpgfms " , From what I have read, it can create a potassium deficiency. You get all your body's need of magnesium in dark green vegetables.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Dana, It is the other way around from my school of thought. Calcium is thebase mineral that all others need for absorption to take place. Regards, RR [ ] Re: Calcium/Magnesium supplement > Why can't you mix cal/mag and take together?

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2002 Report Share Posted August 7, 2002 Listmates: My doctor say that you need to take both calcium and magnesium but not at the same time because they fight for the same sight in the body.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2002 Report Share Posted August 7, 2002 We just received our new supplements from the Pfeiffer center and they have Cal/Mag together in an uncompounded bottle. When we had it compounded from The Apothecary for about 4 years , it was also together. This is the first time I've heard this about separating them. ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

No that isn't a good product since it contains vitamin D along with calcium and magnesium. You need to buy your calcium and magnesium separately so you can regulate the amount. Here's the kind of calcium citrate to buy, which is a powder: http://tinyurl.com/m5ydl4 Here's magnesium citrate tablets: http://tinyurl.com/kqg3hg OR you can buy magnesium citrate powder: http://tinyurl.com/m6g9cy Powders are easier to absorb than tablets, and you can take them mixed in water, soup, Bee's Egg Drink, etc. To help dissolve the powders measure the correct amounts and put them into a mug, add some boiling water and mix, and then you add that mixture to something liquid, if you wish.
