Hi8 chiron,
Your questions: very droll...
Since you said the best source is the top quality foods, and I answered that I do eat a lot of that already, I wondered if the drink would balance out with the food, in the body...over a whole day, say. But okay... I'm pretty sure that might be a bit like putting on your head only when you want to look in the mirror, or tell a joke, right? :-)
seriously though, Moreless, when i water fasted recently, there was something about the look of the calcium buildup on the inside of my limewater bottle that made me a little uncomfortable.
Answer: Just put some vinegar or Lemon juice in your bottle that has been holding the Lime water and see for yourself that the Lime water coating will be -NO- More ! If the Lime water did not Solidify when it reaches High enough Concentration, How do you supposed your body could make Solid Bones? Alkalinity builds Matter, but Acids Tear down Matter and make it -NO- more ! End.
But would you say -seriously- that's of no concern, because the lemon chelates that, so to speak--and it doesn't build up somewhere like in the digestive system, say? I mean, none of us have yet seen what the inside of our body looks like after a number of years on this drink, have we? --and we are unlikely to, let's hope! I'm not that great with physics and the fine points of anatomy either--so maybe you have some information from over the years that you(or others have taken this drink).
How many years have you taken it, btw? Do you also know others who've taken it for many years? I'm only aware of those of us who've taken it for a couple of years at most...now that I'm past 50, I'm interested in growing younger, (being a late bloomer n lots of ways)and my health IS close to being the best it's been in a long time.
Remember the old arguments about the calcium hydroxide being essentially rock dust?
I realize it's changed when it's in solution, and then changed further when it mixes with the lemon and BSM, but can we be absolutely sure it doesn't build up somewhere where it's a detriment to the body?
*Answer: This is one of the Reasons WHY the BSM is use, as it provides Stablization by Live Carbon source to make the Calcium Hydroxide in the Lime water like Organic Calcium from a plant source ! End.
btw, I know you've mentioned that CH is found in lots of food before: the fact that Tropicana puts it in orange juice or that it's found in other typical store-bought food doesn't mean much to me--after all, such orange juice is pasteurized and essentially dead, and, we don't know how little of this they actually put in--could be almost nothing, considering profit; the public can be easily duped and comforted by the thought that there is any 'calcium' added at all, and, there are all kinds of things that are considered safe in packaged food that are certainly not--you know the long list. Essentially, I'd prefer to eat nothing form a jar, carton, box, etc.
One thing I HAVE always had faith in, is the fact that Cayce suggested the use of CH, and that's the reason I decided, against all the nay-saying, that I'd take the ML drink. I've *always* appreciated the cost of it too--especially these days. And I have felt like the drink's been good for my health overall.
There's just this nagging image of the CH in the jar that sort of struck me, while I was cleansing. That's what made me think of switching calcium supplements for awhile, to something else that might be more generally considered bio-available. To see how my body might react to it.
We who drink this drink (and take your pH ideas seriously) have always been a bit on the fringes of what most would consider well-advised. And yes, I know that 98 percent of what people think is right is not, so I'm okay with being in the minority.
I'm not trying to start a debate. Just being straight up, and wondering about other good sources.

Answer: For more info about the Calcium Hydroxide you may use the search engine and re-view the Many Past posts !
If that does not satisfy you, then try another Calcium source and find out that it will take a lot more to do the same job as the Lime water !
Cause and Effect !
Smile Tis your choice.
