Hi Grz,

Your post and question: Last night my son stated he was not feeling well. Even said sipping water made him feel sick...

He would never do the alkalizing drink so...

I mixed him up a liter of water with a bit of calcium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, magnesium citrate, Real Salt and told him to sip it through the night.

By morning he was feeling better and went to work WITH another liter I mixed up for him.

Tonight, I think his energy is going to run me ragged. I suspect the mix helped to re-hydrate him among other things.

I was REALLY impressed with the results and so was he.

I have a couple of questions though...

Calcium carbonate and potassium carbonate or bicarbonate is available through wine and beer making supply houses at very reasonable prices. I would imagine this product is good to use this way if it is good for wine and beer, correct?

Quite honestly this was a souped up version, with the calcium carbonate, magnesium citrate, and sea salt (and cheaper too), of Alka-Seltzer Gold... Interesting.

I suspect I could make a lifetime supply with a few pounds of each ingredient on my own for less cost than a few boxes of manufactured product.

Any problem with this for occasional use for the kid or family members who WILL NOT even entertain the idea of the alkalizing drink ?

Answer: You are touching on the major ingredients needed more by weight and Volumne by the body, which many people get short of or out of wack with !

And a mix of sorts may be much Better to use than some of the Drugs on the market !

The Biggest problem may be in choosing the Correct ratios of the Sodium to Potassium and then not getting any of the other much needed Alkaline Trace Minerals ?

But those items in your mix may many times be used by the Medical establishment in some form or the other to try to control the electrolyte balance in the body !

What we forget to understand may be the Importance of some of the Trace Minerals, without, which the body cannot go long without running into Health problems !

And this may be one of the Biggest problems I would see with this !

But hey, it is better than some of the Drugs people use !

And who knows what the person trying it may start to consider other ideas as time goes on, which may help them more ?

Smile Tis your choice.

Sometimes I get so tired of taking everything by mouth. Can you bathe in this solution with any good results?
