Without feedback from one's body, how does one determine the dose? c) Which minerals & in what ratio? d) What is the cost? Buying pure ascorbic acid in 3 pound jars, I am paying about $12/lb which works out to less than 3 cents a gram. Since my body wants me to take 20-30 grams a day, the cost is moderate. But if I were paying 10 cents a gram or higher, the cost increase would tempt me to cut back on what my body wants. And this, imo, would not be a good thing.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2003 Report Share Posted July 31, 2003 At the moment, I buy it at my local General Nutrition Center (a national chain store in the US). Prices fluctuate. So I look on the internet to see if some other source is cheaper that month. The place I used on the internet this past Spring was http://www.bulkfoods.com/search_results.asp?txtsearchParamCat=ALL & txtsearchParam\ Type=ALL & txtsearchParamMan=ALL & txtsearchParamVen=ALL & txtFromSearch=fromSearch & tx\ tsearchParamTxt=4704 The URL is very long. If your mail program breaks the URL, be sure to repair it before pasting it into your browser. I used to buy the 7 pound (gallon) container.
