Calcium and vit C

I think my doctor wanted me to get total 1000mg a day of Calcium. To be brutally honest, I have been terrible about keeping up with Calcium supplements.

I can add sardines and extra greens to my diet, but the other foods on that list are off limits due to my dietary restrictions. I estimate that I can get about 500mg calcium through food alone, so maybe I will supplement 500mg/day until I start to heal and can tolerate new foods.

Also I have an unrelated question.

I read that vitamin C can act as an Antibiotic and I thought it would help with the infection in my gut, so yesterday I started a very large dose.

The excess vitamin C caused me to have very uncomfortable lower back pain, which I realized must be my kidneys. I think months of undetected fructose malabsorption must have made them weak.

I assume Iodine will help with this but I thought this but I also thought I should try to do some kind of cleanse/flush.

I've never done a cleanse before, so I was wondering if you know anything that could point me in the right direction? Tweet
