Guest guest Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I have no idea what causes it, but I have had the same reaction. Maybe some sort of detox?

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 When you take it in a gel cap, it melts and the salt is sitting in a pile in one spot of your stomach. Are you drinking lots of water with it? At least 8 oz? We have had that problem with various supplements over the years, and have learned to either run for a banana (can chew and swallow fast) or gulp lots of water, and then dance around to mix up the contents of our stomach. Go ahead and laugh, but it has saved my family from throwing up many times!! J Donna in IL Hello all This past week I have been taking 1/4 tsp celtic sea salt AM and PM. I put it in gel caps cause can't stand drinking the taste. Twice I have had terrible nausea, abdominal cramps and wretching (literally hanging over a pail trying desperately not to throw up) 5 minutes after taking the salt. Once was in the AM once in eve. Both times I had food in my tummy. Fortunately it only lasts about 5 miserable minutes then I'm fine. Any ideas what could be causing this reaction? Thanks as always Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Hmm Lack of water definitely isn't the issue- I take it with at least a full glass and had food in my tummy already and then was in the process of eating dessert when it hit last nite As to the suggestions to jump around- oh dear when I'm about to throw up that isn't gonna happen!! I'm such a wimp if nausea strikes! Anyways maybe I'll take it all by itself with lots of water and see what happens (and pray too!) Glad to know I'm not alone in this (misery loves company!)

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Like any protocol, work up to it gradually; take a week, or a month, if need be, to get where you want. That will lessen the shock to your body. Reactions like you all describe are probably shock from sudden exposure to something the body is not used to. lyme photos.com talk about a maximum of 18 grams, but worked up to gradually.They use pure salt, so using Grey Celtic, one would use about a 70% ratio, since it is 70% sodium chloride. So 15 grams would be 21.5 of Grey Celtic. I would experiment and "listen to your body"as to detoxing ala Herxheimer reactions, etc.We have use a ton of Grey CS for ten years, and can take a lot without nausea. Similar reactions are infinite in MMS literature. MMS is a salt, sodium chlorite NACL2,(table salt is NACL, SODIUM CHLORIDE) BUT ACTIVATEDWITH CITRIC ACID TO MAKE CLO2, Chlorine Dioxide. Results are the same if you take too much, too fast- nausea, diarrhea, vomiting. rashes, etc. The body needs to dump the toxins created by dead "bad guy" organisms be they virus, bacteria, parasite, etc. Salt sterilizes, ie killls bad guys, so expect to detox the crud. Just do it slowly.The only exception, is in an acute, life-threatening condition; appendicitis attack, extreme flu case, cancer etc. As long as the body can get rid of the crud, it will heal much faster. Repeated 6 to 8 drop doses of MMS, or high salt intake will possibly kill the flu or infection in 12 to 24 hours. You might just spend a bit of the healing time in the restroom. The article below says; "In any case, a cleansing & purifying process is underway, and stored wastes are in a free-flowing state." LOL it is normally called diarrhea & vomiting. Jerry http://falconblanco.com/health/crisis.htmThe Healing Crisis AKA: The Cleansing Reaction, The Detox Reaction, and The Herxheimer ReactionWhat is it? Also known as the "Herxheimer Reaction", this reaction occurs when the body tries to eliminate toxins at a faster rate than they can be properly disposed of. The more toxic one's bodily systems are, the more severe the detoxification, or healing crisis. It is characterized by a temporary increase in symptoms during the cleansing or detox process which may be mild or severe. You may feel worse and therefore conclude that the treatment is not working. But these reactions are instead signs that the treatment is working and that your body is going through the process of cleaning itself of impurities, toxins and imbalances. Such reactions are temporary and can occur immediately -- or within several days, or even several weeks, of a detox. Symptoms usually pass within 1-3 days, but on rare occasions can last several weeks. If you are suffering from a major illness, the symptoms you experience during the healing crisis may be identical to the disease itself. Sometimes discomfort during the healing crisis is of greater intensity than when you were developing the chronic disease. This may explain why there may be a brief flare-up in one's condition. Often the crisis will come after you feel your very best. Most people feel somewhat ill during the first few days of a cleanse because it is at that point that your body dumps toxins into the blood stream for elimination. With a more serious condition there may be many small crises to go through before the final one is possible. In any case, a cleansing & purifying process is underway, and stored wastes are in a free-flowing state. http://www.lymephotos.com/printableprotocol.htmlThe Salt and Vitamin C Treatment The Essential Treatment is basically Body weight in pounds/10 = total daily consumption in grams, so 1 gram of Salt, and 1 gram of Vitamin C for each 10 pounds of body weight. Use pure salt (sodium chloride) without any additives such as aluminumsilica, oriodine If you use powdered salt or Vitamin C be aware that 1 teaspoon (tsp) = 5 grams, thus1 tablespoon (tbs) = 15 grams. One should space out these into three or more doses each day. For example, a 150 pound individual would swallow 15 grams of each in total as 5 grams of each in the morning, 5 grams of each at midday and 5 grams of each in the evening. Total daily consumption should not exceed 18 grams of each per day. Drink lots of water. High doses can be very hard on the stomach. Experiment; start with lower doses, such as 3 grams each 5 times a day to get your daily total. Again, drink plenty of water.JerryFrom: wally.kathy33 <wchopee@...>Subject: Re: celtic sea salt and nausea?iodine Date: Wednesday, October 28, 2009, 10:51 AM Hmm Lack of water definitely isn't the issue- I take it with at least a full glass and had food in my tummy already and then was in the process of eating dessert when it hit last nite As to the suggestions to jump around- oh dear when I'm about to throw up that isn't gonna happen!!

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Hi, this may be due to a potassium deficiency. I am right now doing quite some research on this subject, and it seems people that do have a lack of potassium do not tolerate salt very well. Even though a lot of potassium is in our diets, the average salt intake compared to the average potassium intake is way to high. And guess what, salt depletes potassium in the body. I've read in the answers of this thread that bananas help - its because they are one of the highest sources in potassium. Celtic sea salt does contain potassium too, but its nothing compared to the natriumchloride part. I am still in the process of researching this, but the best option is to eat a lot of vegetables and fruits that are high in potassium. Supplements containing potassium may cause problems, while the same amount consumed through organic food does not - I do not know why yet. But I can say one thing for sure: salt loading should be balanced by some (natural)potassium source like eating a banana prior to salt loading. dont forget that we have a very bad salt to potassium ratio in the average diet, and that is without the salt loading. > > Hello all > This past week I have been taking 1/4 tsp celtic sea salt AM and PM.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I learned to do the juice of 1/4 to 1/2 lemon lemon juice (from real lemons .. not RealLemon) and about tbs. of salt or more in BIG glass (20 oz to 32 oz.) and drink it (or major portion) first thing in the morning for energy and cleansing and some throughout day.

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Thanks so much, Bruce, for suggesting this terrific website. Lots of good info on several nutritional issues, including thyroid related and different forms of magnesium. That was especially useful to me, as I'm " magnesium sensitive. " She really has pulled a lot of info together in one place, making it much easier to plan your own, personal program.
