Coral Calcium

[Guest guest]

I myself take Calcium Citrate, I guess because I read it is easily

absorbed in the body.

I do not know about Coral Calcium, but I found out the chemical name

for it is Calcium Carbonate.

The health benefits of calcium are tremendous. Also, calcium

deficiencies are common among people causing some problems as colon

cancer among many others.

I know next to nothing about any of this, not being a heath nut (and that’s

meant in the nicest, most PC way, knowing I should be more of a ‘health nut’

myself, more about nuts in a moment), but the name “Coral Calcium” worries

me. I read that our coral reefs are already being badly depleted and I

understand, though I may be wrong, that they play an important role in our

oceans ecologies. What that could specifically be I haven’t a clue, however,

the mental image of the supplemental health industry sending out an army of

trawlers, belching black diesel fumes behind it, to rip up pristine reef

beds in the name of the latest dietary fad sends a chill up my aging

calcified spine.

I think I’d rather get my calcium from milk, but then there are the PCBs in

the milk fat. OK, non-fat milk then, but on the other hand the cows are not

raised in a really warm and caring environment are they? So, there’re always

pills, but who knows what else are in the pills? OK, broccoli! But then you’

re faced with the rather unpleasant task of actually having to

eat…well…broccoli. I think I’ll pass on the calcium and just move on to

dessert, thanks.

Back to nuts. About 10 years ago Loma University (big vegetarians over

there) announced the results of a long term study on colon cancer and found

that eating ¼ cup of walnuts three times a week drastically reduced (by

about 70-80% if I remember correctly) a mans chances of contracting colon

cancer (it totally eliminated the possibility of contracting Colon ,

thank gawd). The study didn’t say what nuts women should eat but for my

money munching on walnuts is one heck of a lot more pleasant than trying to

choke down broccoli or gnawing on a branch of coral.

The advertisement stated that the " Genuine Coral Calcium " was different from

the " other " kinds from being 1.) harvested underneath the water or ocean

floor not from " surface " coral. and 2.) it has more zinc or magnesium.

To many late night infomercials. :-) (LOL)

>Hi, I have taken coral calcium from dr. barefoot for about 3 years

now. I wanted to let you know many of the kinds that are available from

walmart-(drug stores) are imposters using his name to sell products.

He has had numerous battles in courts with people using his picture on

calcium pills etc claiming to be the " genuine coral calcium " We order

direct from his son in law each bottle is $40 something a piece. We

have his books and my husband talked to his daughter and son-in law.

Please beware of this before you think you are getting a legitimate

product. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but wanted you to be

informed. If you want more info from a reliable source please let me

know. Jodie

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone is taking coral calcium for

cancer or other conditions? If so, what is the best

brand? Appreciate any thoughts on this positive or

negative.

Blessings,

I read from somewhere it said coral calcium is hard to digest. You can image how

hard coral is. Sorry I cannot give more details.

I use Coral calcium in gel cap form.(Fine powder) Most calciums are going to

come from a " hard " source unless you can eat a Vegetable form of calcium.. I

have no complaints about coral calcium. Blue

> Anyone else tried coral water?

I recall having a horrible reaction to some coral calcium

product mixed in a glass of water. These days, I take

calcium lactate, which requires the fewest amount of

biochemical reactions to turn it into something the

body can use (or so they say)

I haven't heard of coral water, but I've been taking coral calcium capsules.

My applied kinesiologist says that the kind of calcium you should take

depends on your Ph level. I forgot which was which, though. Most people

will absorb the regular ones better (calcium carbonate or calcium citrate),

but some need the coral calcium. I recommend getting professional advice

from a holistic practitioner to select the best type.

BTW, some natural food stores don't carry coral calcium because of the

damage it does to the coral reefs in harvesting (I found this out later on).

The only reason I continue to take the coral calcium is so that I can finish

the bottle. I figure it would be even more wasteful to throw it out.

Regards dosages of Calcium you need to take,

Amie, Tennant also suggests dosages depending on your pH,

pH of...

below 6.0: 7700 mg coral Ca or 1540 mg Ca carbonate

6.0-6.5: 5500 mg coral Ca or 1100 mg Ca carbonate

7.0-7.5: 3300 mg coral Ca or 660 mg Ca carbonate

> 7.5: none

A salivary pH of 6.5 suggests a cellular pH of 7.2. Thus one has to adjust the

cellular pH numbers by about 0.7.

In Tennant's pdf this is explained on page 15. Tennant's

86-pages-you-definitely-must-go-and-get-for-free-pdf is downloadable on:

http://www.tennantinstitute.com/TIIM_MAC/Patient_Forms.html

(Click on how to stay well booklet)

I think it's best to test how much Calcium you feel good or better with. And

make sure you also take Magnesium (otherwise it doesn't matter how much Calcium

you take).

Regarding this point, the Magnesium Miracle book by Carolyn Dean, MD, recommends

a calcium to magnesium in a 2:1 ratio, and mentions that most people overdose on

calcium relative to magnesium.

It has been shown that microwaves result in calcium efflux from brain tissue.

* You need magnesium to properly absorb calcium.

* Calcium constricts, magnesium relaxes.
