yes. taking too much of one can stop uptake of another.

the rule of thumb in pharmacy is that vitamin tablets "can hurt, cant help". and no i didnt type that wrong

multivites are really a waste?

for the average person, according to the advice put through to me through the board as per pharmacy newspaper, yes

(pharmacy newspaper = bunch of academic pharmacists reviewing research in teh context of what we should tell people as professionals, funded by government with actual health (not sales) as the objective. trustworthiness A+)

I know you all probably heard of AST Multipro 32x...
why are these so popular when taking the recommended amount (2 a day) is very close to overdosing on a lot of the vitamins?

for the average person yes ....eating balanced diet is the best way to go ...but since thats nearly impossible ...i "supplement".

read the book "Genetic Nutritioneering"

it provides a pretty in-depth answer to that.

i agree.

what i was getting at was the humor in comparing giving yourself chelation therapy to oblivion with giving yourself such a hypertonic alteration you end up with a potassium level of .45.


basically how NOT easy it would be to do.

true enough. there arent exactly a whole lot of studies done on your average fina guzzler.

on the other hand though, if you supplement, youre eating a whole lot more of everything than the average dude

make up your own mind, i dont think anyone in the world could answer

cheers
