[Guest guest]

, not sure where you live but if you have a Sprouts store or a Wild Oats

near you they carry Celtic Sea Salt. Or you can buy it over the net:

[ ] Supplement Question

Also, I have not been able to find Celtic Sea Salt. I did get sea salt

though. Is Celtic a brand name or a type or what? And where did you find

yours? I checked our local health food store (they generally have everything!)

and also a regular grocery chain with no luck.

seperately from other supplements, or not with food, etc? (if I

missed this in the materials somewhere, please point me that way, but

I did look for this before posting!)

==>That's a good point, which I will add to my article. Thanks for

mentioning it. Most supplements are taken with foods. Cod liver oil

is best taken just before a meal. Liquid chlorophyll can be taken

alone mixed in water.

==>If you live in Canada Celtic brand is called " Nature's Cargo " -

you can also buy Himalayan sea salt. You can buy it on line like

another member mentioned, and if you become a member of the Grain &

Salt Society you get a discount on all purchases.

==>Evening primrose oil is omega-6 which you do not require; there's

plenty of it on this diet, and evening primrose oil also contains

gamma-linolenic acid (omega-6) but why does it state " equiv? " In any

case evening primrose oil is not on my supplements list for good

reasons.

==>The last two are vitamin E, but because it states " equiv " I am

suspect it could still be synthetic. Also vitamin E is always

measured in IUs (international units and not milligrams). You need at

least 400 IUs vitamin E per day, so 3 capsules isn't nearly enough

even if the mgs equal the IUs.

==>There isn't enough EPA & DHA in 3 tablets - you require 2,000 -

3,000 mg per day. It doesn't give a breakdown of the fish oil which

makes me suspicious; fish oil would contain EPA and DHA but you

cannot depend on them being correctly balanced when it is not broken

down on the label.

==>Yes, I would recommend buying Cod Liver Oil in the winter, and

fish oil plus vitamin A in the summer when you are sure you get

enough vitamin D from the sun, plus vitamin E separately.

==>Also hopefully you have been taking Vitamin A in addition to this

product because it doesn't contain any.

calcium ascorbate reacted from calcium carbonate and ascorbic acid

gets worse (rectal, ear and eye).

==>Lemons and limes are help your body detox so they will increase

healing symptoms. The body puts out histamines as an immune

response to toxins which is what causes the itching. Take less at a

time and only gradually increase it to minimize your reactions if

they are intolerable. But if you continue to take them as you have

been the healing symptoms will diminish.

==>The total amount of vitamin C to take per day is 4,000 mgs; some

people do take more and that is okay if they do not get loose stools

from the higher dose.

==>Take 1,000 mg of the supplement you have (above) plus 3,000 mg of

sodium ascorbate (50/50 mixture of ascorbic acid crystals and baking

soda - do not mix them ahead of time because they deteriorate

quickly. When the mixture turns yellow it is no good.) Spread out

the 4,000 mgs throughout the day.

Thanks so much Bee, I got it right now. I appreciate your patience with my

inability to

follow simple instructions lately. You are amazing!

==>Hi . Some nutrients provided in supplements are not readily

available in foods and some are not in quantities the body needs on a

daily basis, i.e. omega-3, oil soluble vitamins A, D, and E.

Raw dairy products, like whole milk, yogurt, cheese, can provide enough

calcium, but a magnesium supplement may be needed. Dr. Cathcart,

Othomolecular Physician, recommends that everyone take 4,000 mg of a

vitamin C supplement every day.

Also B vitamins may not be needed, and probiotics can be discontinued.

These supplements should be taken by everyone:

- omega-3

- vitamins A, D, & E (vit. D IF the person isn't getting enough sun

exposure at the right time of day on 85% of their body)

- calcium, if they do not consume enough dairy products

- magnesium

- vitamin C

Everyone should always have enough ocean sea salt for the minerals plus

good water that contains minerals.

Hi a, I asked Bee this awhile back - here's what she said.

==>a, I take some supplements consistently, and others I keep on

hand for when I feel I need them, like betaine hydrochloric acid

(HCl). I take HCl when I eat away from home IF the food isn't the

best. Like last night, I ate 1 piece of white flour pizza at my

daughter's place so I took 1 HCl. HCl also helps detoxify the body.

Depending upon how my stomach reacts I may have 1/4 tsp of baking soda

in water.

I consistently take: cod liver oil, vitamin E, B complex, niacin,

vitamin C, calcium citrate, magnesium citrate and extra ocean sea salt

(I tend to have a low heart rate and blood pressure). Occasionally I

take ConCentrace liquid ionic minerals. I've experimented long enough

that I only take 150 mg of calcium and 450 mg magnesium on a regular

basis; sometimes I take a little bit more calcium (75 mg) and another

150 mg magnesium, depending upon my diet and my muscle reactions. I do

not have a thyroid so that interferes with some functions, but I've

been able to compensate for it (I take natural dessicated thyroid

tablets 3 times a day).

For when I get stressed, run down, or feel like I need a boost I have

these things on hand: oil of oregano, clove oil, peppermint oil, raw

ginger, acidophilus, and white willow bark capsules. Of course I

always have coconut oil and a good goat's butter daily. I also use

lemons and garlic in my foods.

These are what I make homemade: bone broths (from pork hocks or feet,

chicken, chicken feet; when I can get them), kimchi, mayonaise and

salad dressing.

Hi ,

welcome back. See if post #49372 doesn't answer all your questions.

I have never used lithium orotate, but at my house, the symptoms you

listed above, were usually related to yeast overgrowth. Since these

happen " off " round, also consider possible mineral toxicity issues.

Or, are there any supps you give " on " round that you don't give " off " ?

Dana

[Guest guest]

My DAN has me giving several different supplements. My DAN doesn't want me to

give my son a multi vit., but he is not getting any calcium, and my son eats

poorly and isn't getting many nutriets. I wanted to put my son on the brain

child vit and min (which has everything my DAN has me giving my son but more.. I

would still continue the cod liver and the EFA oils, the probiotic, and the zyme

prime). Does anyone have exprience with the brain child nutriants?

Also has anyone tried the cell food that they sell? From its description it

sounds like something that would benefit my son.

Thanks,

> I am beggining to order more supplements and have some questions. I have been

taking the nutritional yeast....do I also need a seperate niacin?

+++Hi Arianna. No, you don't need extra niacin.

For the vitamin C do I need both the crystals and the 1000 mg tablets or

capsules. If not what is the difference?

+++No, you do not need both the crystals and the tablets. I suggest you only

take the tablets or capsules and not the crystals.

How do I store the eggshell calcium?

+++Before soaking it in lemon juice, just keep it dry. After soaking it in

lemon juice keep it covered and in the fridge so it doesn't dry out or become

moldy.

The vitamin E, comes in 400 I.U....do I take it just once per day as opposed to

the reccomended 200 twice a day.

+++Yes.

When I order these things, as well as the old world cod liver oil...how much

should I buy at once? How quickly will I be going through these things? I want

to make it worth it as far as shipping costs go....

+++Most supplements contain a months supply and sometimes more. You can

calculate the number of tablets/capsules and figure out how many days it will

last you, i.e. if the bottle contains 90 capsules and you need 2 per day, it

will last you 45 days, etc.

You will need to order more Cod Liver Oil since it lasts less than 2 weeks (you

take 2 tbsp. per day).

All the best, Bee
