My daughter takes calcium. We found legal calcium at the GNC vitamin

store. If you need the specific brand name, let me know.

I take a bone builder calcium (includes other minerals, trace

minerals), and get Iodine (and other trace minerals)from red or Grey

sea salt I use at the table. If I do not take these, I really feel it

in my joints and bones.(Most of my crohn's symptoms are arthritic in

nature.

I use a supplement that's supposed to be good for osteoporosis called

+CAL+ from Pure Encapsulations. It contains calcium, vitamin D, and

several trace minerals (it also contains a small amount of horsetail

extract which may not be SCD-legal?)

How do you know your sea salt contains a significant amount of Iodine?

I'm thinking of going back to regular iodized salt because I read

somewhere that sea salt does not necessarily have enough iodine. Do

you use a specific kind?

I had to look up horsetail. Not only is it used in beauty products for antiaging stuff, it's a European herb that looks like asparagus and "The Ancient Greeks used horsetail in the treatment of wounds and the Romans used it as a vegetable, an animal feed and a medicine. Culpeper said it was 'very powerful to stop bleeding, either inward or outward, and eases the swelling, heat, and inflammation of the fundamental, or privy parts, in men and women.' The Chinese use E.hiemale, or mu zei, to cool fevers and as a remedy for eye inflammations such as conjunctivitis and corneal disorders, dysentery, flu, swellings and hemorrhoids."

Best to be tested for iodine levels as idoine pills can mess up

thyroid function etc.

Just a note of warning. Start slowly with calcium supplements, or

mineral supplements.

I have a bad reaction to calcium and any form mineral supplements

containing more than one ingredient. In my case, my joints seize up

(all of them are involved, but the worst is along my spine and hips)

and I suffer severe and debilitating pain when I take a calcium

supplement of any kind. And a supplement containing more than one

mineral affects me the same way, plus gives me hives and severe

nausea, sometimes overwhelming fatigue. Supplements that are

supposed to help with joint flexibility and/or arthritis have the

opposite effect with me and make things very bad for me for a few

days.

Of course that's just me. But I wanted to mention this so you might

go slowly until you know how your body handles things.

Also, be cautious with iodine. Our bodies need some to improve

thyroid function, but there's a fine line between enough and too

much, and you don't want to cause damage.

I take Nascent Iodine, about 3-5 drops/day. I feel it is extremely

beneficial.

cant take iodine unless it is in salt, because of the gluten. It aggravates the skin to bring out gluten, makes me have a rashJAHSCD 4 yearshttp://www.glutenfreeeugene.org/xl2/scd.htmlSubject: Re: anyone take calcium or iodineTo: BTVC-SCD Date: Monday, October 6, 2008, 8:54 PMI take Nascent Iodine, about 3-5 drops/day.
