I'm like you and think that it is necessary to supplement, no matter how well we think we eat. All minerals DO come from rock, water and soil! We need to get these minerals pre-digested through plant sources to be able to absorb them more readily. (rock: 10% absorption vs. plant-sourced: up to 100%). I take a wholefood supplement that uses a patented technology utilizing highly concentrated, plant-sourced minerals derived from healthful, hydroponically grown mustard sprouts. Although, the calcium and magnesium is gotten from red algae, Lithothamnium. This Multi has natural vitamin complexes (food matrixes, not isolates) also ---- very important!, along with fully standardized phytochemicals and glyconutrients.
hey gabe what kind of coral do u take the pill version or the kind u put in ur bottle of water i also take vitamin e that kevin t recommended in the back of his 2nd book i think its 4spectrum .us is the brand name
It is from Ultra botanicals. With magnesium from coral cal and from okinowa. Pill form. Robert Barefoot says the kind u put in water doesnt give the complete package, or as much good stuff
Bob Barefoot is considered the father of CC. He has over 40 years of calcium research behind him. He has travelled the world and studied the populations around the world, including the Okinawans, and has published his findings about how their calcium consumption affects health. His exclusive products are the best, period!
Hi Treesha,
Yes, there has been A LOT of controversy over Bob Barefoot's research. He has cured thousands of people; that's very threatening to the ftc (really the drug industry). He has never claimed to be the cure all! If you are serious about your question above, please take some time to read about Bob -who by the way is a scientist and chemist, not a Dr. That page doesn't have their facts straight. http://www.barefootscureamerica.com/FTC-Barefoot.htm
This I know, JD ---- it is a wonder (and quite sad) how you can almost know when something is of such great importance to our health and welfare --- it is dissed the most on the web!!! Threatening --- you said it!!
Cliff,
Yes, I take coral calcium and I love it! I use the coral cal sachets in my water to help alkalize my water and infuse it with calcium. I get my coral calcium and also Solarcal D supplement from ITV Ventures. They are the infomercial company that promotes Kevin T's books and Bob Barefoots products as well as other high grade natural supplements that positively impact peoples lives. There is a link to the ITV website on my profile where you can watch KT or Bob Barefoots infomercials or purchase their products if you want to take a look. Good luck! Karen
