Speaking of supplements- or going without them.. how about Kelp as a natural

source of iodine? Does anyone know if it is legal or a brand that is legal?

Kelp is a seaweed and not legal.

You might want to look at Body Bio's liquid minerals.

I used their zinc after my surgery, when I had to be on clear liquids and

I wanted the zinc to help heal. It didn't give me any issues. I

think Kim M. has been experimenting with some of the others to make her

own electrolyte stuff.

I keep meaning to write them for a letter (I have an email, but that's

not a letter) for confirmation that the liquid minerals are

legal.

Same thing as other illegals: polysaccharides.

Marilyn will know for sure but I think it's another polysaccharide

issue. Seaweeds are slimy, right? Most of the slimy stuff we can't

have, like okra, marshmallow and stuff.
