• It has to be balanced with magnesium if the body is to use it well.
• It has to have the right pH.
• Taking either calcium or magnesium alone is likely to cause deficiency problems with the other.
• If it doesn’t have the right pH, it can cause kidney stones, deposit in the joints and other places. In other words, it’s useless.

We all learned at school how calcium is good for bones and teeth.

Less Well Known …

• Is that calcium is also needed in the blood.
• And in the tissues. By tissues we mean muscles, organs, eyes, etc.

In The Blood

It (rapidly) helps with mood stability, the sleep cycle, pain sensitivity and correct blood clotting.

In The Tissues:

• It helps with cell repair.
• Menstruation (also other ovarian activity: puberty, before and during menstruation and menopause. At these times the need for calcium rockets sky-high and then typically women have problems with mood, sleep, pain and blood clotting.)
• It is vital for muscle function.
• It is vital for healthy tissues, particularly the gums.

Now For Magnesium

It occurs in more than 300 digestive enzymes. If you are short of magnesium you can’t digest your food properly – you’ll feel this as lowered energy or you’ll get hungry too soon after your last meal and want to eat again too early.

It works with calcium on:

• Muscle function
• Sleep cycle
• Pain sensitivity

Sensitivity

Now, magnesium is particularly involved with noise sensitivity. The reason? A function of magnesium is to coat the nerve ends. If you are short of it, there is nothing between your nerve ends and the environment and so small noises will irritate or upset you – especially if you’re trying to sleep. Excessive noise also burns up your magnesium reserves so, if you’re exposed to constant noise, you will need to keep your reserves of magnesium high.

Both Calcium and Magnesium are Alkaline

Because of this they need a little acid to get them back to neutral so they can dissolve and be absorbed. If you don’t get it like this, the calcium can form stones in your kidneys and/or deposit in your joints and other places such as behind your eyes and so on. This is a very important factor when using calcium.

We have used vitamin C and citric acid – so they are natural with no side effects. The body has to have calcium, magnesium and vitamin C – and citric acid is nice to take.

Instant CalMag-C Formulation

With this formulation we get it into the blood stream within 10 minutes. You could say instantly. That’s why it’s called Instant CalMag-C.

Back to Muscle Function

There are two main sets of nutrients “electrolytes” in the body: calcium/magnesium and salt/potassium. They are basically minerals and are the main things the body uses for smooth muscle function. Shortages of any one will cause cramping. If you get a cramp, it is almost always one of the four that is short.

Two work together as a set for smooth muscle contraction and the other set of two work together for smooth muscle relaxation. Before cramps start, you might get a slight co-ordination problem. It can start with hand or eyelid tremors and then move onto irritable bowels, restless legs and then to cramps and then chronic muscle pain.

Sodium and potassium can be short, but most of us are short of calcium and magnesium to some degree – due to the fact that modern diets are high in sugar and starch which deplete these minerals.

Sugar and starch use up hydrochloric acid in the stomach and then not enough is left over for proper calcium absorption then we end up short of calcium and magnesium because they work together.

Calcium and magnesium cover so many functions in the body that without them many little things can go wrong that are accepted as “normal” but are quite unnecessary so Instant CalMag-C makes good sense.

Dehydration usually begins with thirst and has varying degrees of severity. The severity of the symptom depends on the degree of dehydration. Please note that this applies to babies as well. A restless child who is fretting and has been fed may just be dehydrated.

Some Dehydration Symptoms:

• Thirst
• Skin flushing (not blushing but a redness that can manifest in other body parts too)
• Appetite loss
• Dry skin
• Urine dark-colored
• Dry mouth
• Lack of energy
• Inability to fall asleep
• Fatigue
• Weakness and fatigue
• Cramps
• Chills
• Nausea
• Dizziness
• Racing heart
• Increased body temperature
• Headaches – from mild to extreme
• Tingling of the limbs

Symptoms of Severe Dehydration Needing Urgent Medical Attention

• Confusion
• Vision dimmed
• Difficulty breathing
• Seizures
• Chest and abdominal pain
• Unconciousness
• Muscle spasms
• Vomiting
• Racing pulse
• Shriveled skin
• Painful urination

Sources of Dehydration

• Not drinking enough water.
• Drinking too much water without replenishing minerals (electrolytes)
• Vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Working in an air-conditioned building or flying in an air plane and getting dehydrated without realizing it (air conditioning’s job is to extract the moisture – humidity – from the environment and the biggest moisture-carrying object in the environment is usually the human body so It is literally being sucked out of you. The biggest danger is that you don’t feel it because it cools you down.)
• Heating in cars and buildings
• Exercising without adequate water and electrolyte intake
• Physical work or exercise
• Excessive sweating – from illness or physical exertion
• Too much coffee, carbonated drinks, alcohol, drugs or excessive sugars

Minerals (Electrolytes) and Their Importance

Your nervous system is pretty much like an electrical switchboard in a building. When there are interruptions in electricity, the lights may flicker in varying degrees. In an extreme case, the circuit blows and the power is cut off.

The body works in pretty much the same way. The body’s electrical “switchboard” needs minerals (electrolytes), calcium, magnesium and other minerals for the “electricity” to flow through the nervous system and keep all the organs, glands, muscles, etc functioning.

Dehydration can often be caused by an excess of water and no mineral intake to compensate for the increased urination or sweating.

A slight deficiency will make one feel uncomfortable and, in varying degrees, result in severe symptoms, many of which are described in the lists above. In an extreme case, the “power” is cut and the body functions stop altogether.

Simple Solutions

• Drink enough water – not excessive
• Carry the combination cell salts (also known as homeopathic tissue salts, salts being another word for minerals) and take them as needed. You can’t overdose on them. They’re easy to carry and can be used by everyone.
• Make sure you’re getting enough calcium and magnesium. See below for more information about this. These are minerals your body is using up constantly and get lost as well. Safe for babies too.
• Get enough fresh fruit and raw vegetables.
• Avoid or reduce intake of carbonated, alcoholic, sugar-loaded drinks and/or coffee

Food Sources of Minerals

Fruits (especially cantaloupes, watermelons, bananas, apples etc), vegetables (especially celery, cucumbers, coconuts etc).

Calcium and Magnesium

These two minerals are essential for more than 300 functions in your body, such as sleep, pain, cramp and muscle spasm alleviation,  nervousness, restless leg syndrome, relaxation, alleviating stress, hyperactivity, heart function, blood pressure, blood clotting (especially important during tooth extraction, dehydration, child birth, operations and so on), etc.

In order for your body to absorb calcium, it needs to be accompanied by its partner, magnesium, in a balanced ratio of two parts calcium to one part magnesium.

Calcium contracts your muscles while magnesium relaxes them and that’s a simple explanation of what these two minerals do.

Calcium and Magnesium Need Vitamin C: As both calcium and magnesium are alkaline, they need some kind of acid before they can be absorbed. Failing to have this combination can lead to increased deficiencies of calcium and/or magnesium or the calcium depositing in joints (arthritis) or kidneys (stones). You can use apple cider vinegar too but vitamin C is usually a more practical and better-tasting solution.

Instant CalMag-C is a balanced, fast-acting calcium and magnesium supplement with the correct delivery system so your body can absorb it and you can get the benefit. Because of its formulation, the body absorbs it rapidly which means you can get the benefits instantly.

Why Instant CalMag-C Works: Unlike tablets and capsules that sometimes don’t break down properly, Instant CalMag-C has been formulated in a 2:1 blend of calcium gluconate and magnesium carbonate with vitamin C to adjust the pH so your body can actually absorb the calcium and magnesium. This is very important. It is made with boiling water and this is very important as calcium particles are large and the chemical reaction created by dissolving the powder with boiling water breaks them down into absorbable ones.

Calcium Also Needs Vitamins D & F: Most people know that vitamin D is needed to absorb calcium. This is correct but the vitamin D only absorbs it into your bloodstream. What most people don’t know is that, in order to get calcium from your bloodstream into your tissues, you need vitamin F (another name for essential fatty acids). Vitamins D and F need to be in balance with each other so make sure you take a good quality fish (or cod) liver or flax oil in your daily diet. They are very important for good hormonal function too.

We have not added vitamin D or F to Instant CalMag-C as they are both oil soluble vitamins whereas calcium and magnesium are water soluble and it’s not a good idea to mix them.

Successes from Instant CalMag-C users: we have lots of success stories of all kinds from our many customers. You can see those by visiting our Testimonials Page and looking under the category that interests you.

Disclaimer: Please note that we are not doctors. Should you have any illness or disease, please refer to your medical practitioner for the  advice. The only advice we give is purely educational but we do also recommend that you find yourself a practitioner who understands nutrition in relation to disease.

There can be many reasons for insomnia and they are listed here, along with some suggestions to overcome them.

Too much caffeine or sugar stuff: This results in the adrenals going into overdrive and the cortisol production to go haywire. There are times when it is supposed to be high and times when it is supposed to be low. When it’s time for sleeping it should be low. A good test here is if you’re not “switching off” mentally and your “computer” keeps going. This is usually the one where you can’t stop thinking or planning the next day.

Solution: Try taking a tablespoon or so of Brewer’s Yeast and a glass of CalMag-C.

Low blood sugar: If blood sugar is low it can cause one to wake up or not be able to fall asleep. Blood sugar has to be steady.

Solution: Eat a light protein snack such as a boiled egg, a piece of cheese, some nuts or some peanut butter. Don’t overload yourself. Avoid sugar or refined carbs as they will throw it out again and drink a glass of CalMag-C.

Dehydration: If you’re dehydrated, it is difficult to sleep. Dehydration is not only caused by lack of water but also a lack of minerals. Many people say they can’t be dehydrated because they drink so much water. If you’re drinking a lot o water, you’re diluting the minerals and losing them through sweat and/or urination so drinking a lot can actually worsen dehydration. Coffee and fizzy drinks also cause dehydration.

Solution: A good, simple solution is to take a handful of homeopathic combination cell salts* and a glass of CalMag-C. If possible, avoid coffee and fizzy drinks.

(*Cell Salts are a group of homeopathic remedies made from minerals. Two words: Cell - meaning used on the cellular level and Salts – meaning mineral or minerals salts.)

Deficiencies of calcium and/or magnesium: An inability to sleep is also an inability to relax. Calcium is essential for the relaxation of nerve tissue, whereas magnesium is particularly involved with the normal function of the brain, spinal cord, and all nerves. (extracted from Adelle Davis’ Let’s Get Well – Disorders of the Nervous System). It is important to help the body relax so it can switch off and sleep. Repair of the body occurs during sleep. Besides the nervousness and irritability that occurs as a result of not sleeping, the body just cannot repair from the ravishes of the day.

Solution: Drink a glass of CalMag-C before bed.

How it Works

Instant CalMag-C is made of Calcium, Magnesium and Vitamin C

Instant CalMag-C is a balanced calcium and magnesium supplement with vitamin C that your body can assimilate very rapidly.

“Physical health, which is the basis for mental, emotional, and spiritual development, cannot be maintained without adequate nutrition. Sound nutrition stands as a fortress against disease, a fortress whose gates are open and into which all may enter who wish. The strength of this fortress can help protect our citizens and our nation.” (From Adelle Davis’ Let’s Get Well: A Fortress Against Disease, published circa 1965)

Depression, for example, can be created in anyone who is deficient in most of the B vitamins or has low blood sugar. It is definitely not caused by a deficiency of some or other psychotropic drug (also known as medication).

Likewise, stress can be created in anyone who is deficient in the B vitamins, calcium, magnesium, minerals, etc.

I must point out, though, that we are never deficient in only one nutrient. Depression, lack of energy, stress, hyperactivity, insomnia, etc, etc are all symptoms of general malnutrition but some deficiencies may be more pronounced than others.

I have used the word malnutrition deliberately. Even though we’re living in the USA, many of us are very malnourished despite an abundance of so-called food.

Eating dead or empty foods creates malnourishment and puts a lot of strain on our bodies and increases the chances of all kinds of diseases because the body isn’t getting what it needs to function and, in addition, it has to do something with the overload of dead food, which is actually toxic to the body.

The secret is to eat as much salad and vegetables – as close to uncooked as possible and preferably organic – plus good quality meat or fish (or other sources of protein) from organic sources if possible and to get enough good quality fats into our diets. After decades of low-fat diet popularity, more people are experiencing hormonal and overweight problems. These problems cause depression too.

If we were meant to eat low-fat diets, cows, goats, fish, nuts, seeds etc would produce low-fat foods. They don’t so one can assume that perhaps Mother Nature knows what’s best for us.

It is also advisable to avoid refined (the packaged foods) and fast foods. They are health destroyers. Having said this, I also don’t believe in telling people “Don’t ….” When health starts to improve through good nutrition, most bad food habits diminish or have less of an effect so focus on getting the right things into your diet and not on the things you should eliminate. I find this a much more positive approach.

Along with the additional help of nutritional supplementation, many symptoms, such as depression, hyperactivity, insomnia, a poor mental attitude, etc, will start reducing and can disappear.

I have seen so many improvements in people’s health when they follow a good overall nutrition program – and I don’t mean taking bunches of pills etc – that faith can be restored in good nutrition. The program I recommend is so fundamental that even toddlers can consume it.

I wish you the very best of health for yourself and your loved ones.

I would be happy to share this with anyone who wishes to improve their health. Just e-mail me info@CalMag-C.com.

Reduced energy or mood swings, even a bit depressed and morose or, in the case of the younger generation, too much energy of the wrong kind are all symptoms of eating too much refined sugar and carbohydrates (starches from pastas, breads, cakes/cookies etc that convert to sugar). They burn up the nutrients and can give one a “let-down” feeling.

“Starch is our major source of hidden sugar. Ample starch to meet our needs could be obtained from fresh fruits and vegetables such as bananas, apples, corn, peas, lima beans, yams, potatoes and squashes. Instead, we are deluged at almost every meal by sugar coming from cheap, starchy foods: refined cereals, breads, and every variety of breadstuffs; macaroni, noodles, or spaghetti, cake, pies, cookies, and other varieties of pastry.

“If you doubt that such starches can deluge you, try eating at a school cafeteria for a few weeks and see how vigorous you feel. If you wish to curtail your sugar intake, visualize all refined starchy foods as servings of sugar.” (From Adelle Davis “Let’s Eat Right To Keep Fit”)

What Sugar and Refined Carbs Do

Sugar and refined carbohydrates deplete your body of nutrients, particularly B vitamins, calcium and magnesium.

Calcium and Magnesium

Calcium and magnesium are vital for every single cell in your body to function properly. That’s why deficiencies in these minerals can create many different problems like hyperactivity, bad behavior, body tension, fatigue, insomnia, bad moods, colds, flu as well as many others.

B Vitamins

A deficiency of the B vitamins can induce sugar/carb cravings and these things also cause deficiencies. The best thing you can do for your family is give them a good source of B vitamins, particularly food sources like Brewer’s Yeast.

Festivity Recommendation

I would make sure everyone has an adequate calcium and magnesium intake and a good dose of Brewer’s Yeast or a good quality B vitamin. You will see how much easier it is on everyone and this means much more fun for all concerned.

“A substance containing vitamin A, visual purple, is formed in the eyes; any light reaching the eyes breaks down part of the visual purple, and the products of this purposeful breakdown set up nerve impulses which tell the brain what the eyes see. More visual purple is formed and again destroyed.

“This cycle of regeneration and breakdown continues through life. Vitamin A is therefore somewhat like the film in a camera in that it photographs what you see but the “film” is used up.

Both day and night vision require vitamin A, but night vision depends on the vitamin-A mechanism entirely; therefore a subtle vitamin-A deficiency first causes difficulty in seeing in the dark.

“You can test your vitamin-A adequacy any time you drive at night. The lights of on-coming cars destroy vitamin A in your eyes; if your ocular fluid contains ample vitamin, you can see again almost immediately; if you are deficient, you will be blinded, the length of time depending on the severity of your deficiency.

“Tests have shown that persons having auto accidents at night are pathologically deficient in this vitamin. When better lighting of highways results in fewer accidents, it is because day vision rather than night vision is used and vitamin A is less relied upon.

“There are varying degrees of night blindness. The person with a mild deficiency believes his vision to be normal but sees more efficiently in daylight. With a slightly greater deficiency, he experiences eye fatigue after watching television, for example, but he usually assumes that others have similar difficulty. If his need for vitamin A is still greater, he may suffer pain in his eyes, especially after long use, and experience nervousness, headaches, and visual fatigue.

“A severe deficiency can cause such discomfort and eyestrain that he may refuse to drive at night. Such a person is sensitive to bright light during the day and feels more comfortable wearing dark glasses; thus less light reaches his eyes and less vitamin is destroyed.

“The majority of people who wear dark glasses eat too little vitamin A to allow normal vision.

“People who work in bright light, which destroys vitamin A quickly, or dim light, which requires night vision entirely, use relatively more vitamin A than do persons working in moderate light. Typists and bookkeepers who face the glare of light on white paper frequently suffer from eyestrain preventable by diets richer in vitamin A; persons who sew, read, or watch television a great deal (work on computers too!), miners working in dim light, welders facing flashing fire, photographers working both with bright lights and in darkrooms, and people living on the desert or beach where the sunlight is reflected by white sand often have visual difficulties because their need for vitamin A is unusually great.

“Perhaps no glare is so destructive to the vitamin A in the eyes as sunlight on clean snow; trappers, hunters, and skiers are often too familiar with this vitamin deficiency. When the lack becomes severe, burning, itching, and inflamed eyelids, eyestrain, perhaps severe pain in the eyeballs themselves or frequently occurring sties are experienced in addition to nervousness and exhaustion.

“Mucus may accumulate in the corners of the eyes; ulcers or sores sometimes appear on the covering of the eye, or cornea.”

(Excerpted from the works of Adelle Davis)

Editor:  The best source of vitamin A is liquid fish liver oil from a reliable source. Capsules are okay but the quantity needed is much greater than when taking the liquid. It can be taken with a bit of juice, yogurt or milk. (E-mail info@CalMag-C.com to enquire about our Cod Liver Oil.)

It is important to note that one should consume adequate amounts of vitamin E as well as it prevents destruction of vitamin A in the body. Besides an adequate intake of vitamins A and E, a good balanced nutritional program is vital for your body to function properly. No-one is deficient in only one nutrient. It is usually multiple.

This data is presented as education on how the body works and increase understanding so that readers can become self-sufficient in the care of their body.

The body requires balanced nutrition so don’t take this data out of context and assume you only need to take vitamin A – or any other vitamin, for that matter – to solve problems with your body. A balanced intake of all nutrients is required.

That brings us to calcium and magnesium. These two minerals are vital to the proper workings of the body and in order to be used effectively by the body, they need to be in a body-friendly form and appropriately balanced, hence Instant CalMag-C.

“Most of the other vitamins are needed more by certain tissues than by others.

“Because these vitamins are needed equally by all cells, a deficiency can produce severe damage before the condition can be noticed. The damage is nevertheless real. Instead of one organ showing abnormalities, as do the eyes during a vitamin-A deficiency, the entire body degenerates.

“This overall abnormality is difficult to recognize in an adult, but severely stunted growth makes it markedly noticeable in the young.

“Only when the deficiency becomes quite severe does one group of cells show greater damage than another. For example, when a person feels below par, he automatically decreases his activity and may spend much time sleeping; thus most of his cells do less work, and their need for B vitamins decreases. The heart, however, works continuously from birth until death; even though the deficiency is already severe and every cell has been equally damaged up to this point, the first deficiency signs may now appear in the heart.

“It has become increasingly clear that since the B vitamins occur together in food, no person is deficient in any one B vitamin without being deficient in all of them.

Your Tongue “Tells” All About Your B Vitamin Status – Check Yours to Ensure Good Heart Health

“In a general way you can tell how adequate your intake of B vitamins has been by looking at your tongue.

“It should be moderate in size, an even pink in color, and smooth around the edges without coating or indentations showing where it has rested against your teeth. The taste buds should be uniformly small and cover the entire surface and edges. If you can find a healthy child, you may see what the normal tongue should look like.

“When the B vitamins are under-supplied, many changes take place in this organ. The first change appears to be enlargement of the buds at the front and sides of the tongue. Later these buds become small or even disappear, making the tip and sides smooth, whereas the buds farther back will progressively enlarge. These buds have a flat appearance like button mushrooms.

“As the deficiencies of these vitamins become more severe, clumps of taste buds fuse and grow together, pulling apart from other clumps and thus forming grooves or fissures. The first groove usually forms down the center of the tongue.

“In a severe B-vitamin deficiency, the tongue may be so cut by grooves and fissures that it looks like a relief map of the Grand Canyon and surrounding territory or a flank steak run through a tenderizing machine.

“When the deficiencies are still more severe, the taste buds literally disappear. First the tip and edges become smooth and shiny; then the buds disappear progressively from front to back. This extreme condition is found most often in elderly persons whose diets have been inadequate for years; they complain that their foods has little flavor. In some cases such tongues are intensely sore. In other cases, personals having extremely abnormal tongues are surprised to find that they differ from normal.

“The size of the tongue also indicates deficiencies of these vitamins. The tongue may be large, beefy, and full of water (edematous). Often such a tongue shows scallops around the edges where it has rested against the teeth. The beefy tongue is so named because it has the appearance of beef and is usually an intense deep red.

“On the other hand, it may become too small, or atrophied. Other tongues may have a purplish, or magenta, cast, and still others may be a brilliant red. Often the tongue shows a combination of colors with perhaps a red tip and a magenta center. The color and texture vary depending upon which B-vitamin lack is mot prominent.

“For example, a magenta tongue (the color seen most often) indicates that a deficiency of vitamin B2 predominates over the other B-vitamin deficiencies.

“A beefy tongue is thought to show that pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is particularly undersupplied. When deficiencies of vitamin B12 and folic acid are most prominent, the tongue becomes strawberry red and smooth at the tip and sides; it is often shiny and not coated.

“If the deficiency is predominantly the B vitamin, niacin (vitamin B3), the tongue may be fiery red at the tip and may appear to be either too small or too large and so coated that it is fuzzy with debris. The heavy coating is caused by the growth of undesirable bacteria; it usually indicates much putrefaction in the intestine. Since valuable bacteria in the intestine produce B vitamins, such coating probably never occurs if bacteria growth is normal.

“Studies indicate that 60 – 100% of the persons showing severe tongue changes are unable to produce sufficient amounts of hydrochloric acid in their stomachs; their output of digestive enzymes is far below normal. In such cases, digestion is so faulty that unless tablets of hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes are taken temporarily, much gas, flatulence, digestive disturbances, and discomfort may be experienced.

“In fact, if your digestion is so faulty that you have intestinal gas after you add foods rich in the B vitamins to your diet, you can be sure you have been deficient in these vitamins.

“All the B vitamins dissolve in water and for this reason cannot be stored in the body. Just as a sponge can be slightly moist or dripping wet, however, so can the cells hold little or much of each B vitamin, depending on the amount offered. To maintain ideal health, the offering of B vitamins should be sufficient for each cell to take all it can use to advantage. Any B vitamins not needed are excreted in the urine.

“It appears that all B vitamins work together; this co-operation is called the synergistic action of the B vitamins. The taking of one or more B vitamins increases the need for the others not supplied, probably because any one B vitamin alone can increase the activity of each body cell. The group in its entirety can be obtained only from such foods as liver, yeast, and wheat germ.

(Please note that due to a high phosphorus content in Brewer’s Yeast it is important to balance it with calcium. See more about calcium and phosphorus here.)

“To discuss the deficiencies of the B vitamins separately is as unrealistic as to believe in men from Mars. Such deficiencies exist only in an experimental laboratory. A deficiency of one, however, often predominates over others. If the first symptoms of deficiency are recognized, they can serve as a warning that unless your nutrition is improved, great deviations from health can be expected.”

Best Source of B Vitamins

One of the best and most practical sources of the B vitamins is Brewer’s Yeast. It is loaded with B vitamins, protein and many minerals.

I have helped a lot of people with sleep issues, inability to switch off at night, cravings, and many other issues using a combination of Brewer’s Yeast, calcium and magnesium.

Brewer’s Yeast is food so you don’t have to worry about dosages. It is a good source of some minerals including phosphorus. Because of this, it needs to be balanced up with calcium so you don’t get wired like a race horse and that’s where Instant CalMag-C comes in.

Many believe it’s a genetic problem. In some cases this might be true but it really is largely to do with diet – the lack of some important nutrients. The thyroid could also be the source of the problem and, in most cases, this still comes back to nutrition.

Here are some excerpts from the works of world-famous nutritionist, Adelle Davis, on the subject of losing hair and its color.

“…. I saw a colony of black cocker spaniels whose diets were identical except for pantothenic acid (vitamin B5). The well-fed animals were beautiful creatures with sleek fur and boundless energy; although fully grown, they were like pups which could not be trusted with a bedroom slipper. Their litter mates without pantothenic acid appeared to be miserable old animals of extreme age; their hair was coarse and grey; their heads drooped, eyes half-closed. When pantothenic acid is given to such animals, the normal color and texture of hair are restored, and the appearance of youth is to some extent regained.

“In addition to liver, yeast, rice polish, and wheat germ, pantothenic acid is found in kidneys, soybeans, and peanuts; egg yolks and whole grains are fair sources; muscle meats contain little; the vitamin is lost in refining of flour. The richest sources are adrenal glands and royal jelly, the food of the queen bee.”

“…. Loss of hair often occurs in animals deficient in any one of several B vitamins or certain amino acids.

“…. Deficiencies of at least four B vitamins, PABA, biotin, folic acid, and pantothenic acid, appear to affect hair color. One scientist who had conducted years of research on these B vitamins and has repeatedly produced gray hair in dark mice, rats, silver foxes, and black dogs even states all gray hair is probably a symptom of multiple nutritional deficiencies.

“….I have never seen the color of any person’s hair restored by the taking of synthetic B vitamins. I have, however, seen a dozen or more cases of persons whose hair color has been remarkably restored after they began to take adequate diets unusually rich in these vitamins

“One was a fairly young woman whose hair was white; she became so enthusiastic in applying sound nutrition that a year later she had almost no gray hair. Recently I saw a man of 76 whose hair had been white for years; after he followed a good nutrition program for a decade, his hair is black.”

Best Source of B Vitamins

One of the best and most practical sources of the B vitamins is Brewer’s Yeast. It is loaded with B vitamins, protein and many minerals.

I have helped a lot of people with sleep issues, inability to switch off at night, cravings, and many other issues using a combination of Brewer’s Yeast, calcium and magnesium.

Brewer’s Yeast is food so you don’t have to worry about dosages. It is a good source of some minerals including phosphorus. Because of this, it needs to be balanced up with calcium so you don’t get wired liked race horse and that’s where Instant CalMag-C comes in.

Instant CalMag-C

Calcium Needs Magnesium: In order for your body to absorb calcium, it needs to be accompanied by its partner, magnesium, in a balanced ratio of two parts calcium to one part magnesium.

Calcium and Magnesium Need Vitamin C: As both calcium and magnesium are alkaline, they need some kind of acid to adjust the pH so they can be absorbed. Failing to have this combination can lead to increased deficiencies of calcium and/or magnesium or the calcium depositing in joints (arthritis) or kidneys (stones). You can use apple cider vinegar but vitamin C is usually a more practical and better-tasting solution.

Why Our Instant CalMag-C Works: Unlike tablets and capsules that sometimes don’t break down properly or are not correctly formulated, Instant CalMag-C has been formulated in a 2:1 blend of calcium gluconate and magnesium carbonate with vitamin C to adjust the pH so your body can actually absorb the calcium and magnesium. This is very important.

What You Can Do

Take anything from one teaspoon to several tablespoons daily of Brewer’s Yeast along with a couple of glasses of Instant CalMag-C.

Children and constipation: “One more thing that I have found with the CalMag-C. My children have had occasional problems with constipation. Since we’ve started the CalMag-C, no more problems and I’ve even stopped using my natural supplements for constipation. Wow!
Thank you for the help in getting this great product.” Mother of 10

Intestinal Health

A prerequisite to good health and a strong immune system is good intestinal health. Restoring intestinal health can eliminate such diseases as arthritis, allergies and high blood pressure, to name some.

The toxic end products of an unfavorable intestinal environment include such organic waste products as histamine, peroxides and guanidine, to mention a few. They are produced by rancidity of fats, putrefaction of proteins, and fermentation of starches. This process is greatly accelerated in the intestinal environment, particularly in the small intestine where most absorption takes place.

What happens when these toxins reach the blood stream?

The stress is first upon the detoxification system – mainly the liver and kidneys. When these can’t carry the overload, the skin, glands, and other eliminative organs are brought into the picture. The result is metabolic overload, lowered resistance, diminished vitality, and disruption of the metabolic balance. The result: gas, bloating, fullness, indigestion and constipation – and metabolic disaster such as arthritis, allergy, or other disease.

Vigilance required

The “therapeutic measures” now come into the picture. Things like antacids, laxatives, breath-sweeteners, are merely symptom-dulling remedies. The intestinal environment cannot be improved in the face of the continued consumption of white flour, refined sugars, synthetic fats and cooked foods, especially when they form the basis of a daily diet.

Basic remedy

To resolve intestinal complaints successfully, one must begin with the natural law: unrefined, natural foods, unaltered by man’s tampering, provided by Mother Nature (as close as is possible nowadays) not only to please the taste, but also to nourish the body adequately. Whole grains, whole meat (organic, grass fed), whole fruits and vegetables – with all parts intact – should be eaten in as natural a form as possible (uncooked). This is one of the few remedies most sufferers from indigestion do not try!

We dare you to resolve your digestive issues this way.

Making Choices

The primitive races, provided with only their native diet, don’t have to think too much about what to eat; they only need to eat what is on hand. Not so civilized man. He has the choice of good or bad in selecting foods – and the wrong selection can certainly open up Pandora’s box.

This is the unique responsibility which faces us. We make our choices in life.

Natural solution

For a person who is very constipated, drink four teaspoons of Inositol Powder with a glass of Instant CalMag-C first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.  Only eat one hour later!

Once there is bowel movement, take two teaspoons of Inositol with a glass of CalMag-C every morning before breakfast and feel the difference! Remember that magnesium is a natural stool softener too.

Add Brewer’s Yeast to your diet and see how happy your digestive system becomes.

Calcium Needs Vitamins A & D

We have not added vitamins D or F to our Instant CalMag-C as they are both oil soluble vitamins whereas calcium and magnesium are water soluble and it’s not a good idea to mix them. They are very important and should be in your daily diet.

It’s actually as simple as that. But, how can you tell if it is a B vitamin deficiency and not something else? That, too, is simple. In her book, Let’s Eat Right to Keep Fit, Adelle Davis provides a simple tool for checking by an inspection of your tongue.

“Studies indicate that 60 – 100% of the persons showing severe tongue changes are unable to produce sufficient amounts of hydrochloric acid in their stomachs”. You read this right. It’s low stomach acid that is the culprit.

”…their output of digestive enzymes is far below normal. In such cases, digestion is so faulty that unless tablets of hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes are taken temporarily, much gas, flatulence, digestive disturbances and discomfort may be experienced. In fact, if your digestion is so faulty that you have intestinal gas after you add foods rich in the B vitamins to your diet, you can be sure you have been deficient in these vitamins.”

“All the B vitamins dissolve in water and for this reason cannot be stored in the body. Just as a sponge can be slightly moist or dripping wet, however, so can the cells hold little or much of each B vitamin, depending on the amount offered. To maintain ideal health, the offering of the B vitamins should be sufficient for each cell to take all it can use to advantage. Any B vitamins not needed are excreted in the urine.”

“It appears that all B vitamins work together; this co-operation is called the synergistic action of the B vitamins. The taking of one or more B vitamins increases the need for the others not supplied, probably because any one B vitamin alone can increase the activity of each body cell. The group in its entirety can be obtained only from such foods as liver, yeast, and wheat germ.”

Brewer’s yeast is the best source of the B vitamins.

“In fact, more nutrients are more concentrated in yeast than in any other known food. The use of yeast alone could correct the majority of the world’s nutritional problems: the proteinless meals of China and India; the B-vitamin needs in the Orient and the tropics; the iron starvation of women the world over; and the trace-mineral deficiencies of both sexes of all ages of every nationality.:

“Yeast contains almost no fat, starch, or sugar; its excellent protein sticks to your ribs, satisfies the appetite, increases your basal metabolism, and gives you pep to work off unwanted pounds. If any food could be said to be “reducing”, yeast is that food.”

“Powdered yeast is preferable to flaked yeast which usually has a lower vitamin content, weight for weight. Moreover, 1 tablespoon of powdered yeast is the equivalent of 5 to 9 tablespoons of the light flaked. Yeast tablets are quite all right; 90 tablets are equivalent in mineral, protein, and vitamin content to 1 heaping tablespoon of powdered yeast. (Note: Uncooked bakers’ yeast grows in the intestine, grabs the B vitamins supplied by other foods, and refuses to give them up; it is dangerous to take. Please be sure you don’t as this article is referring to Brewer’s Yeast.)

“Just as you may not have enjoyed your first taste of coffee, you may not enjoy your introduction to yeast. The best way for a beginner to take it is to add no more than 1 teaspoon to a large glass of fruit juice; increase the amount very gradually as you become accustomed to it.

Some taste so bad that no human being should be expected to swallow them. If you dislike the yeast you have, feed it to the cat and/or dog, and buy a different brand. Some varieties, to one who is used to yeast at least, are quite palatable. (Editor: my personal recommendation is the Lewis Lab’s brand of nutritional yeast, which we sell as well.)

“One reason for taking yeast in small amounts at first is that, in case your digestion is faulty, yeast may blow you up like a zeppelin. Since faulty digestion is usually the result of inadequate B vitamins, the more gas you get from yeast, the more deficient you can know that you are in the B vitamins, and the more you need the yeast.”

“You might eat sugar by the cup and get no gas because it cannot support the growth of bacteria. Yeast is an excellent food, however; hence bacteria thrive on it. If you lack hydrochloric acid in your stomach or produce too few digestive enzymes, much of the yeast remains undigested, and your intestinal bacteria have a feast; they form the gas. The healthy person digests the yeast completely and has no gas or feeling of fullness from taking it.” (taken from Adelle Davis’ “Let’s Eat Right to Keep Fit”)

So, to summarize, be sure to start on a very low gradient and if you do get any of the reactions described above, cut back the dosage – even to half a teaspoon – and add in digestive enzymes until the vitamin B deficiency starts to become less.  As soon as you’re comfortable taking the small dose, increase it slightly and if you’re okay with that, increase it even more. Brewer’s Yeast is an excellent food and is okay for all ages.

Don’t forget, any of the bad reactions mean you are very deficient. Look out for other articles on B vitamins and why they are so important. When taking yeast, make sure you’re getting adequate calcium to balance up with the phosphorus content of yeast.
