Thanks for posting that list. I notice right away it's somewhat similar to my own. But, I see some differences and I am still going to do that inventory Saturday, when I have more time. I'll probably post some questions here looking for suggestions or advice.

Lindy, thank you very much for that list. I have been following the thread for a few months now and have been adding these supplements as I learn more about them. I notice that Calcium is not on your list. I am curious as to your reasoning. I think I know why, given the reading I have been doing on arterial "calcification", but I am interested on your thoughts.

FWIW, since I started taking D3 I do think that my blood calcium levels have dropped, because my workout pumps are not as strong as they used to be. (this could also be due to a lowered carbohydrate consumption as well)

I still take 1000mg of calcium a day, plus whatever I get in my multivitamin and my diet.

LB,

OAT BRAN - TWO OUNCES PER DAY.................Supresses inflammation

While looking at the nutritiondata.com, I found a value for inflammation. When I looked up oatmeal originally, last wek I remember seeing large negative value:
nutritiondata.com

When I was looking up Double Quarter Pounder with cheese, I also found a large negative value:
nutritiondata.com

And realized that negative means inflammatory. Oatbran, raw is also inflammatory:
nutritiondata.com

So while oat bran may be good for something, it does not appear to be anti-inlfammatory. Only if you look at it from the point of view of oatbran replacing somethig that is a lot more inflammatory.
