After copper is built up (a month or two), you should be able to tolerate iodine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 CHeck out the website for Grain of Salt society to find out about the amount of iodine in sea salt. Be careful if you are Hyper.

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 > > Hi: I've been trying to find out what is the best amount of sea salt to take per day. I've been becoming more and more bloated, my hands have become very painful and my ankles and legs look much bigger! I decided to stop salt for a few days and beginning to feel much better, plus the swelling is going down. I must have been taking to much. So now it's back to the 'drawing board' again! I have reread all the great articles on sea salt but cannot find answers re correct amounts. Could someone help, please and thank you. (I know it's in there because I've seen it somewhere.) +++Hi Marjorie. First, please ensure you are taking the right kind of sea salt, which is ocean sea salt that contains over 84 minerals - I recommend Celtic brand in the US, which is available on my website via Amazon.com: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/resource/amazonprous.php Because candida sufferers have low adrenals it is important to get plenty of ocean sea salt so I recommend you have 1.5 teaspoons per day, either in Bee's Electrolyte Drink and/or on foods. If you have had similar symptoms in the past your body will " retrace " them according to Hering's Law of Cure too: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/heal8.php Good ocean sea salt will not cause water retention - see these articles about it: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/menu3_6_1.php Also see this article on Water Retention: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/water3.php The best to you, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Hi , Good ocean sea salt is supposed to be damp. Depending on where you live, a good brand that many of us use is called " Celtic Sea Salt. " I think Bee gets a brand called " Nature's Cargo " in Canada. You can buy Celtic Sea Salt from a number of online sources or you might be able to find it at your health food store. jackie > > I recently purchased a lb of Celtic sea salt - I was nearing the end of my > first small bag.

Like Jackie wrote, good ocean sea salt should be moist and also gray in color (indicates the minerals in it). Larger crystals contain more minerals than the lighter colored finer ground kind. You can grind it up in a coffee grinder, or special grinders for that purpose, or use a mortar and pestle. Ocean sea salt shouldn't be heated; that's why you should only add it to foods after they are cooked. I'm sure you didn't totally ruin it however.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Hi Bee and others, I've been noticing since I've started taking 1-1/2 teaspoons of celtic sea salt per day I've been retaining a lot of water...to the point it is uncomfortable. Is this something I can decrease some days or is this something I want to make sure I'm getting enough of each day to stay in balance with all the other supplements? I just am not sure what else could be causing all this water retention. It started when I increased my sea salt to the 1-1/2 teaspoons so it seems like it is the reason. Mainly bloating in my hands, face and stomach. Any suggestions? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloating in your hands, face and stomach aren't caused by water retention, they are caused by toxins, so be sure you are doing things that help your body detoxify, i.e. dry skin brushing, Epsom salt baths, coffee enemas, etc. I believe that getting those wonderful minerals from sea salt helped your body mobilize toxins better. If you've ever had similar symptoms in the past your body will " retrace " them during the healing process too. The best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 That does make sense. I used to eat almost all processed foods for many years and always got bloated fingers/face. I was wondering if HCI supplements would make me bloat also? I've noticed that after I take them...within about 30 minutes I get very bloated and almost have a hard stomach like I just ate an enormous amount of food even when I didn't. Could this be the HCI or sauerkraut even? They both make me feel the same...or is this toxins again because I'm actually digesting my food? Sorry so many questions. > > Hi Bee and others, > I've been noticing since I've started taking 1-1/2 teaspoons of celtic sea salt per day I've been retaining a lot of water...to the point it is uncomfortable.

Yes, it is toxins again since you are actually digesting your foods. Bloating is mainly caused by candida being killed off, which produces carbon dioxide (gas). Of course HCl and sauerkraut helps digestion so antifungal foods will be more effective. The best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
