Re: Ester-C question...Vitamin dosing in the Welcome to the autism mercury group

[Guest guest]

I am not sure what the file says, but citrates are a good choice because they do

increase the pH (makes the urine more alkaline). This helps the chelators to

avoid dropping the metals into the kidneys. Using an Ester C will also raise

the pH. You want the pH to increase.

Shelia, what were your son's Vitmain E levels? I have not heard the connection

between high levels of Vitamin E and an alcoholic's liver, as many alcoholics

are actually deficient in Vitamin E. How much Vitamin E were you giving? If you

have to, you may be able to increase other antioxidants instead of using the

Vitamin E. Also, did they suggest anything else about his liver? You may just

need to support the liver.

" Giving vitamins in the citrate form can raise pH levels and make the urine more

alkaline, which prevents the chelators from dropping the metals into the

kidneys, a problem you would want to avoid. It can also be helpful to give

Vitamin C in the Ester form, as this also can raise pH levels. "

This is what the file says. It's not clearly written, but the advice isn't

meant to be conflicting. Both citrate form and ester C are recommended because

the do the same thing--make the urine more alkaline to possibly preven the

metails from dropping into the kidneys.

Ah, okay...it's the " dropping the metals into the kidneys " is the " problem you

would want to avoid " , not the rise of the alkaline. Got it. It was a matter of

sentence construction. Thank you!
