I would wonder whether kelp would provide all the calcium, potassium or other macrominerals our bodies need, but I agree that kelp products provide the richest source of the trace minerals, plus many of the macrominerals. >We have been unable....throughout the history of our researches involving mineral utilization in humans to be able to induce ANY FORM of ANY MINERAL deficiency (from among the ocean-borne spectrum)....from among our experimental volunteer populations.< I am not able to make sense of this paragraph. Brooks, please explain this a bit further. >Additionally, we have been unable to isolate or define ANY mineral not present in sea water, to be CRITICAL to the maintenance of proper health in human beings.< It has not been my impression that calcium, magnesium, potassium, etc., are in high enough quantities in kelp/sea water to satisfy human requirements. Do you believe that to be true? >ingest a heaping tablespoon of granulated kelp, divide into three quantities and consume as follows:< I like this formula. I already make a smoothy almost daily with all but the kelp added (plus barley green, eggs, chia seeds, Stevia and nutritional yeast). Would you see a difficulty with adding kelp in capsules, or simply stirring it into water/juice and drinking it? On a side note, Brooks, in your experimental investigations concerning minerals, did you ever have opportunity to investigate the efficacy of Concentrace? I ask that because the company that produces Concentrace describes it as containing all the same minerals as sea water (it coming from the Great Salt Lake), and the minerals as being in the same proportions as healthy human blood plasma. Since it comes in a clear liquid form, I add it to my smoothies (the flavor is completely hidden by the yeast). It appears to have the equivalent to what is found in granulated kelp. The hygroscopic properties of granulated kelp (which are created by granulating the kelp) are eliminated by suspending the minerals in water beforehand (in the form of Concentrace).
