I do not know and that is why I am coming to the Miracle-Mineral-Supplement forum trying to learn. I do know the intestinal problems started after taking the Miracle-Mineral-Supplement . I was on it for 7 weeks as I increased a drop each week. I was taking it 2x a day. I was only stating my experiences both Good and bad. I still believe it could be a beneficial product but I want to understand how to mix it so that I do not experience the GI issues I did before. I even considered trying the 2 drop dosage a couple of times a week. Thanks for you input.
