Likewise Fledgeling, good fortune!

*smile* My cleansing is definately going to be a gentle process, since the amount of dental work to be done is pretty much in every molar, but one of the things reported on the vitaminDcouncil facebook page by another alternative-health-conscious woman was her tooth enamel growing back. That gives me incredible hope! I'd have to say one of the best ways I've tried yet of balancing out minerals is a little bit of kelt and fish sauce soup each morning. Baths and magnesium-rich foods defintely seems to be the best way to refresh the magnesium levels, since tablets.. well, both I and my friend on facebook can confirm that even magnesium citrate gives a sleepiness. It can certainly benefit me at bedtime though!

Hwuff.. When we talk rock salts and mineral salts there are several caches here in Denmark, but the least expensive I have gotten ahold of so far is mediterannean french Sea Salt . I used that two months ago for a bit of tending my feet, but I haven't tried it on a weekly or daily basis.

Hrm.. on the question of protiens and carbohydrates, my thoughts wander into a few areas of body theory. It seems that the best answer is more or less a smart diet of foods very gently cooked in olive oil or as fresh and raw as possible. We're actually quite -made- to live off of slow-release carbohydrates, and you still can't beat seed-base and bean-base foods for their nutritional content. However, the ratio at which they're consumed can leave out some of what we really need - the building blocks of new cells and bodily enzymes which are produced by the breakdown of protiens. The body can easily adjust to a high-protien diet, but as I've experienced, if it's done too fast or without the right foods like papaya to help up the digestion of protien, it can give ze burning butt.

My sister's experience on at least one egg each morning confirms what I've read on a nutritionalist's site- protiens do help reduce blood Sugar swings in the mornings, and she reports that they contribute to a better sleep at night. My current thoughts on food are still pretty simple-

Protiens with each daylight meal, small amounts of cracked-grain or bean-based carbohydrate, 1-3 pieces of fresh fruit, and a good salad in the evening to avoid packing too much down in the gut at night.

If you're looking to loose weight, try reading up on D3 and magnesium yourself, and consider the effects listed on appetite/how high-carbohydrate diets drain the system: http://www.krispin.com/magnes.html

When we're talking about D3, it's best to either use d3-plus, the one with all the helper nutrients included, or below 3500 iu of D3 total a day. D3 is reported to help up to 125% with weight loss and the like. I can say though that it's best simply to do your reading quite thoroughly, look at the science, judge and take things in small steps.

Food is simply one of the -best- ways to help the body balance itself, but sunlight (Body produces D3 in it with proper, slow tanning procedures) is one of those things majorly difficult to obtain via diet (unless you're into eating major amounts of fish or seal and whale blubber). It's certainly awoken some interesting thoughts for me as to why traditional eskimos, fish-loving japanese and brits have had such good results from the sea!

I can confirm that cutting out milk products has majorly cut down on Acne for me. :)
