Re: Calcium rich recipes now vitamin E

Not heard this.. are you thinking about organic iron?? needing e... Ranges vary depending on who you are reading...If you compare the RDA of 15 IU (males) and 12 IU (females) with levels recommended by a variety of other sources you will find a huge discrepancy. For instance, the Alliance for Aging Research (a non-profit research organization) recommends 100 to 400 IU for adults. The RDA is designed to prevent deficiencies and has, in fact, been reduced over the years. However, a normal diet will not allow for consumption levels beyond approximately 20 - 30 IU While studies show 15 IU will prevent deficiencies, many of the antioxidant benefits will not be achieved at levels this low. Recommended levels of 100 IU to 800 IU are common in the medical literature. At these levels, toxicity for healthy individuals is minimal (see note on high blood pressure).

natural Vitamin E is better than synthetic Vitamin E. While this is true, it is only for Vitamin E (not other vitamins such as A, B, C, etc). This is because the molecular structure of Vitamin E found in natural sources is not exactly replicated by synthetic manufacturing methods. As a result, our bodies do not recognize, retain, and utilize the synthetic version as effectively. In fact, there are ever-growing numbers of studies that indicate you must take 60 IU of synthetic Vitamin E to get the benefit of 30 IU (Daily Value set by the Food and Drug Administration) of Vitamin E that is derived from natural sources. Wheat germ oil is the richest, healthiest food source for vitamin E, Vitamin E facilitates the absorption of vitamin A, but megadoses may actually

interfere with this absorption. Vitamin E may also be harmful if high blood pressure is a problem The amino acid lysine is needed to help calcium absorption. Too much calcium can interfere with absorption of zinc. Insufficient vitamin D intake or excess phosphorus and magnesium hinders the uptake of calcium.

I also heard that vit E is necessary for proper calcium absorption. Is this correct? The USRDA says 30 IU's daily for it.

Could be. I wondered that myself after I posted. Peace, love, laughter “This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.”Suzanne <suziesgoats@...> wrote: Not heard this.. are you thinking about organic iron??
