Are you taking magnesium OXIDE in any of your products?

This is a laxative. Magnesium from OXIDE is not appreciably
absorbed.

Brick Top,

The only supplements than can cause diarrhea are the vit C and magnesium oxide. Mag citrate is better. You have to take a lot of vit C to get diarrhea, usually 4 to 10 grams a day. This is a vit C dosing check know as bowel tolerance. Some suggest taking vit C until you have reached your bowel tolerance than back off. I use a different system. I take enough vit C that I expel it in my urine. This shows that there is more than is being metabolized.

You also may just be shocking your system.

Are you taking a multi that has zinc in it ? Zinc can help with diarrhea.

You can start with the D3, B-12, B-complex, and Omega 3 fish oil. These will give your brain a start.

My best to you.

HI,thank you

Thank you Mark
 

I've finally worked out what I think is a good supplement regiment and it's making a world of difference. It's taken over a year and a lot of research to really find the right combination.

Your advise helped so much...Thank you for sharing.

Hi thanks for this thread. I heard that we should always look for multi vits without iron, zinc, and aluminum because these are linked to Alzheimers and Parkinsons. (therefore it makes sense not good for our brain in excess?)
I am also curious about the comments about veg diets since I thought the current thinking was that plant based diets are superior to the normal western diet? I am a near-vegan and I have noticed several improvements in health conditions since improving my diet and to my way of thinking there are more important factors in the diet (such as getting plenty of fruits, veg and other whole foods) than whether or not one eats meat.

The essential amino acid that are found only in meat protein are just that, essential.

Aluminum is a brain toxin. Zinc is needed but in a very small amount. Iron is needed for proper blood function.

It is rare to find aluminum in vitamins. There is no reason for it to be there. Aluminum is very common in antiperspirants. It is also used in vaccines as a adjutant to cause an immune system reaction to the vaccine.

The studies show a markedly smaller brain mass development in vegan and vegetarian diets.

Ovo-lacto-vegetarians can get a lot of what they need. Omega-3's are hard to find in a vegan formula. The algae based formulas have very limited potency. There have been strict rulings by the FDA and Canadian authorities about promoting algae based supplements due to their low nutritional value compared to their cost. If the cost per nutritional unit is high, the authorities consider it a drug and not a food supplement. Plus, the microcystin-related health risk has not been resolved even though microcystin levels have been found to be low.

Ground flax seed is a vegan source of omega-3s. Get a little coffee grinder, grind up 3 tbsp of flax seed, and drink it in juice in the morning. This is a daily dose of omega-3s plus tryptophan.

For more information on plant-based diets, see the documentaries Vegucated and Forks over Knives. Both are available in the USA on Netflix Instant Streaming.

New to the forum. Still working of finding my way around. I have a TBI from a blast injury-explosion. Haven't had much help on getting the proper info on supplements and dosage. I wrote some things down from earlier posts, but would someone help me thru them again please. I get confused by the info on the posts. Or point me to where I can get good information. Thanks for the help.
