I've always been confused about something -- does that mean the ratios

are still valid?

Yes, that's what I was remembering. I just started taking enzymes

again and think they're helping. When I started chelation and

supplements years ago, I couldn't feel any difference with any of it,

but now that I'm farther that's no longer the case.

Yes, Andy says this on p. 114 of HTI, last paragraph. Dean quotes

the passage here:

http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/frequent-dose-chelation/message/13227

Even though the minerals involved in the ratios don't reflect body

burden, they still provide valid information about the metabolic

function of the body.

Some supps have made a huge difference for me (magnesium, EFAs,

adrenal support, probiotics). Most of the others I don't notice

a benefit - of course I stick with the basic supps Andy recommends

anyway.
