Re: alkaline is just the first step anyway

I am curious as to where these acids are supposed be stored? And by what mechanism doe they deprive tissues from minerals. Mineral by themselves do not affect blood pH.

Building mineral reserves is dangerous. Whether Iron, Calcium, Mangnesium.... a excess, or build up will detrimentally affect health, and it is lethal in some cases.

There is also the point of Calcium Hydroxide is not soluble in water, but in Strong Acid ( say like the stomach), its a different story.

I disagree with Moreless on the idea of using lime water (it isn't an ionizable form of calcium-- thus it is scarcely physiologically usable in the body).
Me too. It shows how a horrible idea can be twisted, from lack of correct information.

Most people do not need remineralization. The foods we eat are well fortified with vitamins and minerals to achieve this. Now, if your diet is so horrible that you need this, it is really out self-malice.

Lime, and chalk (calcium carbonate), and other inorganic minerals are too bulky and particulate to ever reach the inside of cell, nonetheless be absorbed through the brush border cells of the intestines.

Right! We need aquaeous ions, not a suspensions which is nothing more than floating dust.
