Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 also, no more canned food if possible - buy things in glass or fresh/frozen. No more soda from an aluminum can. What are you using to get rid of the aluminum? I remember that Magnesium Malate chelates aluminum - we used it years ago and the levels really came down. My child was young and we sprinkled it on food or put it in juice to dose it. Also, use aluminum free baking powder if you bake a lot. Stephanee > > > > > > Hey Liz, > > > > > > Dont worry.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 , I have been blessed with a beautifully built home and pantry! I am going through it and ridding it of all left over aluminum. New pots and pans and various items as well. I had the choice of using homeopathics to get rid of aluminum or Xymogen Chelex ( I think Janice uses this). I have chosen to go a more gentle route because Charlie is 2.5 years old. If it is not working, then I will use Xymogen Chelex. He detoxed with yeast quite nicely on the homeopathics when we started in Oct. So I am going to try it again. Thanks, Colleen Mother of Charlie 30 months. [ ] Group Meeting Results/DAN Info. > > > > > > > > > > > > Went to the group meeting in my town tonight.
