HV, ... My mom has no cartilage around her hip joint. She is hardly able to walk most of the time. She limps around everywhere she goes. She is 65 and this just recently started about 2 years ago with no prior issues. The only other issue she has is she is hypothyroid. How would she address the her hip problems? What would be the causes/or the treatment you would suggest. Her doctor is telling her she needs a hip replacement, but she doesnt want to go that route. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If anyone else has suggestions that would be great also. [End]

Amla & Acerola powder are very economical and are supposed to have alot of vitamin C. I cant tolerate any kind of ascorbic acid either(even with bioflavanoids) I find that nutritional yeast plus pantethine is a great way to get ALL the b vitamins without worrying about throwing off the balance of the b’s. I tried just taking pantethine and my body felt like it was missing something. i feel the same when i dont take pantethine. Are you still doing paleo? Are you eating soaked grains or potatoes yet?

Which is your favorite prebiotic. I have rice bran & inulin. Seems the Inulin is giving me gas. The rice bran doesnt seem to bother me. Wanted to keep it going with the inulin if you think its beneficial, hoping the gas will subside. Also, I know you like seaweeds to feed the flora, i have hasimotos so have to keep them to a minimum. I read in a book (cant remember the name) that if you dont have enough probiotics in your gut then the fiber has nothing to feed on and can make gut issues worse. Is this why you suggest to always use the prebiotics with probiotics, or was the book incorrect? [End]

Some people think cal/mag have a synergistic effect, others think they are antagonistic. You could try calcium in the morning and magnesium at night or go for the combo, just record how you feel. I feel better with them in combo. If you have a calcium rich diet in things like bone broths, raw milk, sardines, etc then magnesium might be all you need. Take at night if it makes you tired. If you have loose stools maybe start slow with epsom salt baths. Then work up slowly with the citrate. Avocado’s and green leafy vegetables are great sources of magnesium also. [End]
