Guest guest Posted June 13, 2000 Report Share Posted June 13, 2000 Quick question (or two) - Before selling to the general public, have you tested the bejeebers out of the soap? Refined your recipe, etc.? Do you have insurance? That's another " must " in my book for selling. In this day and age where people sue each other over hot coffee, it only makes sense to cover your tush. Also, have you discovered your " look " - both of the soaps and your information (brochures, labels, etc.)? Have you checked with your State to discover what the requirements are for beginning a business - if you're selling, it's a biz so you need to be sure to get that straight. Ok, off for me to get coffee. I just wanted to double check. If you've done all this, sorry. I've missed a lot recently on this list, much to my unhappiness. ~ ..:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2000 Report Share Posted June 13, 2000 Here is what I do for labels: We have a cannon creative program that has all kinds of label sizes. But I use the simple letter writing program to make my wrapped labels. Then I cut and paste what I forgot to put on (which always happens) and head to the printer. I get 3 to a page and he showed me how he can print it on colored paper, then I cut it apart with pinking shears. This weekend was the first showing for my bigger bars and this labeling and it was recieved well.

I do still have one amalgam, but I am scheduled for its removal at the end of the month. I will read through your suggested links in the meantime. Will this help me figure out appropriate supplementation? Thanks again! Jeni Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supplementation can help a lot and is > > important also. You can start there if you want. Hi TK! I have read the information on Moria's links concerning Andy's recommended supplementation, but I think I need help fleshing this out a bit. He says: " Most importatnt: C & B vitamins 4 x day. B - 12.5 - 25 mg 4 x day. " 1. Is this ALL B vitamins or a particular few? Can this amount (or some of the amount) be included in a daily multi-vitamin? 2. There is a range in the dosing here. Can someone tell me the daily dosage for a 96.5 lb. mom, a 40 lb. girl, a 38 lb. boy, and a 22 lb. baby? He also says: " 50 Magnesium several times a day - 10 mg per lb. spread throghout day adjust if getting diarrhea. " 1. What is 50 Magnesium? Does this refer to the amount of mg per capsule? He also says: " Vitamin A - 5 RDA's per day CLO is an OK source as are vitamin A supplements of any other kind . . . . " 1. According to what I can determine, that means ingesting 25,000 IU of vitamin A per day. Is this correct? It seemed like an excessive amount to me, so I wanted to make sure I had this straight. 2. Does the 5 RDA's per day of CLO pertain to children as well (because if it does, my children are getting drastically less), or does this statement solely pertain to adults? Thank you again for answering my non-ending list of questions. Jeni Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you tend to be on the diarrheoa side magnesium chloride is the best absorbed of the current forms and does not cause the diarrhea. > > He also says: " Vitamin A - 5 RDA's per day CLO is an OK source as are > vitamin A supplements of any other kind . . . .

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 You might want to check out the list below for supplement recommendations for children (by weight): http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/autism-mercury/ There is a " Supplement File " in the Files section there. Even if your kids are not autistic, if they have problems requiring chelation, then these supp recommendations will be helpful. -- > > . > > > Read through the rest of the information on Moria's links about > the > > > protocol, dosage, timeing, chelators etc before starting and I > would > > > suggest getting Andy's book.
