4 *Note: To Fix Calcium Metabolism everyone needs K2 also to balance other minerals. *Remember: Calcium is used to slow the oxidation rate *To Raise Calcium: Copper and Vitamin D are used. In an inversion zinc is also needed. Magnesium Take both an oral supplement and use transdermal. Transdermal helps to effectively raise tissue levels more quickly. Transdermal Magnesium How To: 1 2 Epsom salts baths per week if tolerated, better for detox and not for rebuilding tissue stores. 3 4 Magnesium Oil or flakes foot baths per week: 1 2 ounces oil in hot water to cover toes in a small foot bath/basin AllVia brand magnesium oil from Zechstein source more affordable option than Ancient minerals. Or Life Flo Pure Mag Oil Magnesium oil gel or spray applied daily at bedtime on feet or anywhere. 8 sprays = 100 mg of elemental magnesium on the skin. Many do not tolerate this at first, best to do the chloride flakes in bath or foot bath. Refer to Magnesium Bath recipe Different forms of Magnesium do different jobs: Magnesium malate gives energy and detoxes metals. It is used in fibromyalgia. Since malate is a substrate in the cellular energy cycle, it can help improve ATP production. Magnesium L threonate crosses readily into brain tissue, delivering it right where brain cells need it. Magnesium Orotate good for heart health, gets into mitochondria more effectively. Use when client has diarrhea to avoid the possible bowel purging effect many of the other forms have. Magnesium Taurate is very calming and great for cardiovascular health. Combination of magnesium and taurine. Taurine helps with copper metabolism. This is a good combo option for Fast 4/ Four lows who also really need the taurine. Magnesium glycinate helps to raise RBC magnesium

5 Magnesium Citrate detoxes OXALATES among other things Magnesium Brands Priority One Vitamins Magnesium Orotate Jigsaw Magnesium with SRT this is magnesium malate Jigsaw MagNow (powder) great for slow oxidizers with low magnesium, sodium and potassium. Contains 200 mg of magnesium per scoop. Also contains sodium and potassium bicarbonate and boron. Metagenics Magnesium Glycinate Douglas Labs Magnesium Taurate 400 mg tablets Ecological Formulas Magnesium Taurate 125 mg capsules Life Extension Magnesium L Threonate (I have not yet used this option or brand) Mega Quinone K2 7 this K2 product also contains 400 mg of magnesium (as magnesium citrate, malate and glycinate), along with 320 mcg of K2 (as menaquin 7), Vitamin K1 (200 mcg), zinc gluconate (30 mg) and boron (80 mcg) Magnesium dosing Too much magnesium can have a lowering effect on sodium, manganese and phosphorous. Slow Oxidizers start with mg daily (depending on age/weight and how low sodium is) Fast Oxidizers start with mg daily (depending on age/weight and how high sodium is) If more magnesium is used in a slow oxidizer to help with bowel purging be sure to support a low sodium with sodium raisers (and assess phosphorous and manganese as well). Potassium Everyone needs potassium but wait on it in sky high potassium folks with fast digestive tracts do not need it. Potassium orotate ~200mg 2x/day Potassium citrate or glycinate ~ mg 2x/day Advanced Research Potassium Orotate 175 mg capsules Priority One Vitamins Potassium Orotate 99 mg capsules Pure Encapsulations Potassium Citrate (contains small amount of ascorbic acid) 200 mg capsules Allergy Research Group Potassium Citrate 99 mg capsules

6 Also list of Potassium Rich Foods with low potassium folks Goal is 4,500 mg per day for adults. Iron Be careful that you are not recommending any supplements containing iron to men unless they are iron anemic, and that you are doing testing to ensure they do not develop iron toxicity. ProFerrin heme polypeptide, highly absorbable, non constipating Boron Supplement in anyone with low boron. Boron improves calcium, phosphorous, and magnesium metabolism, and reduces the loss of these minerals through the urine. Boron plays a role in the synthesizing of estrogen, vitamin D, and other steroidal hormones and protects these hormones from rapid breakdown. In addition, boron strengthens the connective structure in bone matrix. Boron nutritionally promotes the proper utilization of many vitamins, minerals, and hormones which are crucial to the optimal functioning of the human body. Anyone can take boron safely. Pure Encapsulations Boron (glycinate) 2 mg Douglas Labs Boron Plus 6 mg Trace Minerals Ionic Boron Mega Quinone K2 7 and Biotics Multi Mins also have some boron Phosphorous Supplement in anyone with tooth decay and out of balance Ca/P especially low calcium people. Use when phosphorous is low and does not rise on repeat tests.

Silica CellFood Essential Silica Formula look into this as an option. Biosil = too much silica can cause too much detox. Best taken in lemon water so it absorbs (or citrus).

Concentrace Mineral Drops have lithium this is one way to suggest folks get some lithium. OrthoMolecular Products Lithium Orotate 10 mg per cap

9 Molybdenum Best used in slow oxidizers as it can help raise sodium and antagonize copper effectively as well as can help reduce copper elimination symptoms. Avoid using in anyone with low copper as in fast oxidation. The RDA for adults is about 45 mcg, however according to Elson Haas a safe amount is anywhere from 150 to 500 mcg for adults and 50 to 300 mcg for children over 1 year of age. Endomet Moly Cu can be used in copper elimination 1 per meal Douglas Labs Molybdenum 250 mcg Multi Mins contains molybdenum Glandulars Allergy Research Group has excellent glandular products.
