Guest guest Posted July 30, 2005 Report Share Posted July 30, 2005 From various test results, my son's DAN dr recommends Mini-Minerals for my SCD son, for calcium, zinc, chromium, magnesium, and iron (he is quite anemic)...each bottle contains a single mineral dissolved in distilled water, nothing else, no additives or preservatives or flavorings at all. Mini-Minerals are available via World Health Mall, ph.. This is the purest form of these minerals that I have seen to date and iron aside, I'm presuming they're SCD legal? Also, my son takes Child Essence vitamins (www.learnersedge.info), inerts are: microcrystalline cellulose, ascorbyl palmitate, capsule (gelatin and water), which we empty and discard. The cellulose is legal, but does anyone have SCD-legality info on ascorbyl palmitate? I found it described as a derivative of vitamin c, with all of that vitamin's benefits, that is less abrasive on the stomach and can be stored in cell wall lipids, unlike regular C.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2005 Report Share Posted July 30, 2005 Lynda, I know you were writing about the additive but have you read what Elaine says about iron in the vit? I'll post it here and there is more from Seth on BTVC.info. Liver is always a better choice for iron since it's the whole food. Have you tried any of it? Pearl Elaine writes: Pleeeeeze do not get vitamins with iron; they encourage all kinds of infections especially in the gut, and iron has had much research done on it re other diseases. No oral iron if you can help it. Just eat the liver pate and if you like liver, eat it at least once a week. Now, now, Marilyn and Colleen, no remarks.
