Re: "Food grade" Calcium Hydroxide! That is correct!

I do not wish to argue with anyone.

But I would just like to comment and say that just because something is put into a processed food does NOT make it safe nor a preferable substance to eat example MSG.

Also, the miniscule amount some foods might contain would seem different to me than drinking it everyday and these are foods we as sick indivuals should NOT be eating .

Now it is up to everyone as to whether they ingest it or ot. If it works for you great.

But it seems peculiar to me that we are just now finding out that there is asuch thing as FOOD GRADE calcium hydroxide. Why was this not mentioned previously?Unfortunate for those of you that consumed the non-food grade stuff.

Seems as though someone has been scouting the internet looking for info...possibly the very person that recommended this product to begin with. And isn't it a little late after people have ingested something already.

I will state as I always state...I have no problem with anyone using it. It is up to you. But a forum is designed ot trade info and trade info we all will the good the bad and the ugly so be it.

I might also add that the discussion below regarding stomach acidity makes no sense. The acidity of the stomach and intestine is not the same as overall ph of the body. Trying to alkanize the stomach makes no sense whatsoever to me. The stomach needs to be acid, it is supposed to be acid and consuming a food that is alkaline will barely have any effect and only momentarily at that as the stomach will simply create more and more acid and this does not effect the acidic level of the body of course unless you do not have any acid in your stomach then you have problem breaking down foods. I know from experience that being low on minerals can actually cause your stomach to become more and more acidic. My guess is this might be due to the body trying to get more minerals out of what is consumed.
