Hi metbull,
Your question: Does the ratio of calcium water to BSM to kelp to ACV (or lemon juice) matter alot? I pre-mix the calcium water and add the epsom salts to it (1 TBL of pickling lime and 1 tsp of epsom salts to 1 gallon of water), so that ratio stays pretty much the same per drink. The ML protocol starts out with 2-3 TBL of the calcium water, 2 TBL of the ACV or lemon juice, 1 TBL of the BSM and 1 tsp of the kelp.
I am pretty loose with the amounts as I use a soup spoon for the BSM and ACV and I use a regular spoon (heaping) for the kelp (I measure the lime and epsom salts when I make the water in a gallon container) and I pour about 4 ozs (or more) of the lime water in a glass. So, my question is this: while I am getting the proper alkaline minerals from the drink, am I not getting full benefit because my ratios are loose? Or is it ok to use more of some of the ingredients? I don't really want to measure this all the time but will if it is deemed beneficial.
Thanks,
Metbull
Answer: What is Very Important is the pH Balance between the Acids and Alkaline Minerals in the drink !
This may be most Important between the Lemon Juice(Acid) or ACV(Acid) and the Lime water(Alkaline) !
One may take the Kelp and or Epsom Salt on the side, but the Lemon juice or ACV should be mixed with the BSM and Lime Water !
This Lime water should be added to this Basic Mix til the Weak Acids are Mostly Neutralized by the Lime water, but not enough to make the drink taste chaulky !
The Kelp may be mixed in or taken on the side in Capsule form !
The Epsom Salt may be mixed in or taken with each meal in water or as I do, by mixing Epsom Salt in "ALL" the water I drink !
Under normal conditions one may start out slowly, the Sicker one is the Slower one should start !
The small pinch of Epsom Salt with each meal 1st to get the Liver and Kidneys working to Remove the Excess Nitrogen Toxins from the body !
It is a Good idea for a person to take an ACV Enema(Tablespoonful or several Oz. to the warm water) to Clean their Colon out to speed up Recovery !
The amount of kelp and Kind or Variety of kelp is going to need to be determined by the person as time goes on, but 1 Tablespoonful per day to start with is generally enough, if it is good Kelp of the Correct Variety !
If one has Infections, then the kelp may be Increased to whereever is needed to help the body overcome the Infections, then one may back off the Kelp to what ones body tells a person works Best for them !
But, a person cannot get rid of an Infection, unless they are drinking enough Clean water and "Stop" eating Too much Proteins at least 4-6 hours before Bedtime and are taking enough Epsom Salt ! This needs to be done in addition to taking more Kelp ! One cannot take the Higher amounts of Kelp, without doing the other to have the Best Success of Beating an Infection !
The Basic Drink of BSM, Lemon juice or ACV with the Lime water, may be taken several times a Day as needed, but most folks will not need 1 Full Tablespoonful of Good Kelp each time one takes this Basic Drink !
Thus one may take a Teaspoonful or so of kelp if they are taking it with the drink and drinking more than 1 drink a day !
The Kelp is Real Important, but it needs to be understood that not all Kelp is the same, nor will all Kelp provide the same Positive Results, thus one needs to try Different kinds of kelp, til one finds what Kind and variety may work Best for each person, and this may change from Summer to Winter with the weather changes, as to what Varitey of Kelp to use?
Lamaniria Digitata Variety of kelp may work Better for some folks in the Hotter times of the year and the Ascophyllum Nodosum may work Better in the Colder times of the year because of their respective Sodium to Potassium ratios !
Here is some info about Different Kelps:

A person who is Sick and Diseased and jumps in whole Hog and starts taking too much of the Drink and Kelp may find that they become Sicker, if they do not Learn additional ways to help their Lymphatic Fluids Dump the Toxins, which become Loaded into their Lympahtic Fluids from their other body Tissues as a Result !
Just remember when we go to the in-door Flush Toilet and do our business, but Fail to Flush and keep comming back and adding more Waste, but not Flush, pretty soon we may end up with one Big Stinking Mess !
Our bodys are the same way, unless "WE" help our Lymphatic Fluids to be able to Dump or Flush the Excess Toxins that become Released into our Lymphatic Fluids and they become too Acidic, then "WE" shall Suffer from this Failure !
Cause and Effect !
With this in mind, this is where the Detox Baths may come in Very Helpful to help take the Load off of our Lymphatic Fluids and Improve our Healing time !
"WE" are What "WE" Eat !
