Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 Perfect timing Suzi. My sister has been told to get more calcium into herself. She does not want to take pills and I told her about lemon-egg calcium. I will give these to her too. As always, thank you!

What does this mean? This means your body can utilize this form of silica, converting it into calcium, much more easily. -- Peace be with you, Don " Quai " Eitner " Spirit sleeps in the mineral, breathes in the vegetable, dreams in the animal and wakes in man.
