thanks for all the insight.
I figured out that ACV makes me dry too. (when you say dry you mean dry skin right?) Can I compare my dry skin to yours just to compare? Im trying to figure out if my reaction is that of actual dry skin caused by mineral imbalance or some type of fungus reaction.
When I get "dry" my skin gets flat, thin and less plump. It appears to be very smooth texture wise but this is because there is no moisture plumping out the pores, so pores are minimized (facial pores) however the dry skin on my hands actually accentuate the pores there. When I take ACV my skin gets tight and thins out-but it doesn't feel dry, the skin on my lips gets tight and then wrinkly, sometimes peels. I get flaky spots of skin build up. When I take calcium throughout the day it plumps up my lips and skin but doesn't relieve the "thinness" I think the thinness is a fatty acid deficiency while calcium seems to help with the retention of moisture in a different way. When my skin is thin it scars and calcium does not seem to help that aspect at all. When I avoid all food allergies I can get my fatty acids to absorb and thicken up my skin, adding all of the minerals has made my fatty acid balance unpredictable. I suspect magnesium deficiency too because of its releationship with the enzymes involved in FA metabolism.
Another question-did you feel that you had to have candida in control so that the minerals would work or did you find that the minerals helped control the candida?
Also do you feel that supplementing amino acids would upset the mineral imbalance? I would like to try the amino acid theanine for its effect on relaxation.
thanks again!
