I HAVE ALWAYS RECOMMENDED THAT PEOPLE TAKE THEIR MINERALS AS CITRATES.
I HAVE ALWAYS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL PROTOCOLS CONTAIN CITRATE.
I ALWAYS RECOMMEND PEOPLE ACTIVATE MMS WITH CITRIC ACID.
SURELY, YOU CAN FIND AN ARGUMENT HERE AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN FIND A TICK ON A BLOODHOUND,... BUT YOU CANT ARGUE WITH THESE FACTS:
CITRATE IS NEEDED TO BURN GLUCOSE USING OXYGEN (KREBS.)
THIS IS WHY THEY CALL IT CITRIC ACID CYCLE.
BUT WHAT IF YOU HAVE AN EXCESS OF CITRATE ON BOARD? IS IT AN OXYGEN DONOR?
TAKE A GANDER AT THIS CITRATE ION. TRY NOT TO SMILE WHEN YOU SEE WHAT THE SUBUNITS ARE!

What timely information, thanks Bret. I have been supplying information about Cantron and Protocel on my web site alternativecancer.us for about ten years. Just recently there has been speculation in both camps that Cantron and Protocel work by reducing the pH inside cells. And that acidic bodies might be responsible for preventing these alternative cancer treatments from working. However, as many of you know pH can be difficult to bring into the more alkaline region. This is what I have recently learned:
Due to widespread calcium deficiency many of our bodies have made themselves as acidic as possible in order to extract as much calcium from our food as possible. This acidic tendency may make it difficult for Cantron or Protocel to turn a cell alkaline. What I have found with a few clients is that calcium in combination with minerals causes the body to stop trying to be so acid. The minerals seem to be an important part of the process because the calcium can’t be used by the body without a collection of minerals needed to build bone. A healer I work with started to combine chelated calcium and plankton. The results were astonishing. A number of the body’s cleansing systems came on line so hard that the die-off was creating uncomfortable side-effects for his clients. The dosage was reduced to two caps a week and the side-effect went away, but the amazing results continued. For example, I had struggled with an adrenal problem that made me dizzy. I have tried many things with limited success, but after four of these calcium/plankton pills my dizziness was almost completely gone.
One of my cancer clients had been trying to bring their urine pH up from 5.0 for months by using diet, but had had no effect. In less than two weeks using these calcium/plankton pills, his pH went to 6.4. You can find more about this in the Alkalizing Diet section of my Home page.
Hi
Coral Calcium is primarily Calcium Carbonate.

Coral calcium is a salt of calcium derived from fossilized coral reefs. Living coral reefs are endangered and cannot be harvested without significant damage to the ecosystem, and because of this, coral calcium is harvested by grinding up above-ground limestone deposits that were once part of a coral reef. Calcium from coral sources needs to be refined to remove pollutants of the source environment. It is marketed as a dietary supplement, but its benefits over other calcium supplements are unproven and biologically unlikely.[1] Additionally, coral near Okinawa has absorbed relatively high amounts of lead and mercury, leading to concern that these unregulated supplements may be contaminated.[2] Further, coral takes millennia to grow, leading to environmental concerns.[2]
Coral calcium is composed primarily of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), with small amounts of magnesium and other trace minerals. Calcium carbonate from coral is similar to calcium carbonate from other sources, with varying amounts of trace minerals.
Much attention has been given to calcium carbonate's ability to change the pH (or alkalinity) of water-based solutions to which it is added. With respect to pH and alkalinity, the calcium component is less important than the carbonate component, which is chemically similar to the bicarbonate in baking soda. Coral calcium is a source of calcium, which is an essential mineral for human life.

I think that it is not the actual amount of calcium that is important here but the alkalinity. Pickling lime is very alkaline. It is this small amount of additional alkalinity added to the water that makes a difference.
It is not just the absorbtion of a mineral such as calcium or magnesium the counts. While the minerals themselves are important, if the mineral is taken in an alkaline form, it will remove acidity from the body.
When calcium is taken in the form of pickling lime, almost 100 percent of it reacts with hydrochloric acid in the stomach, becoming calcium chloride which is highly absorbable. When calcium is taken as calcium carbonate, this reaction with stomach acid is only partial at best, and because it is already a neutralized form, it does not remove acidity.
I do agree that getting your minerals from natural foods is best, pickling lime does help.

What you can do is compare by yourself.
Coral calcium with the elements as suggested by JustinL and then later the Moreless alkalizing drink which has a whole spectrum of minerals. It would be better if you could measure your urine and saliva's pH.

To me it's about the citrate.
It's been proven that calcium does not enter cancer cells until cancer cells reach their metabolic peaks, then due to higher energy in the membrane, calcium can pass through the membrane, hence cancer has a buffering mechanism involving calcium which prevents cancer from buring itself out or up.
Citrate, actually has been proven to stop glycolysis. What an important point relating to citrate.
Cacium, potassium, magnesium citrates are awesome.
Citrate- part of Krebs cycle, inhibbits glycolysis
