ion - just out of curiousity - how old are you? when was the last time you were in a chemistry class?

you are saying that some of these are non-metalic... uh, a whole lot of those are elements and they fall under "metals" and they remain that way - if it is an aqueous solution, it is still a metal, if it is a liquid state due to its low melting point, it is still a metal.
so I'm not sure I see you point about them being non-metallic and how that would help.
and even then, others are organic compounds which as you say are non-metals, but they can still be bad for you.
just b/c things are found in nature doesn't mean they are good for you. snake venom is entirely natural and you won't find me drinking it....

I don't know why I bother returning to this thread.
if you are joking, very funny, you got some replies.
if you are serious and you are going to keep drinking the shit, as I said before, I hope you aren't paying a lot for it - and I'll add, I hope you have some good medical insurance.

Burning Inside-- I used to be one of those Multi-level so-and-so's selling
Cell tech blue-green alge........good product....but when my sponser started calling
my sisters at 10:30pm and agressively pushing it ,(to increase his downline) saying your brother asked me to call, I had to stop .

Happy--I really feel this stuff is harmless, and I cetainly don't want to misinform.
If you feel a board member might poison themselves with these products, then I'll delete the the
thread, that I started as sort of a humorous intro to some whole food store premium minerals.

I agree 100 % with Happy Scrappy. The majority of the elements listed are "metallic" and have radioactive values. You can see a good portion of those listed here:

http://www.ornl.gov/isotopes/catalog.htm

Depending on the element in question different versions of each element can have short to long decaying half lives, for example I noticed one of the elements was Cesium. Cesium 134 can have a half life of 2.1 years were as Cesium 127 has a half life of 23 years. Half life decay is the time it takes for the elements radioactivity to decrease by 50%. I used to work in the non-destructive testing field and had to learn about certain elements such as Iridium 192 and Cobalt 60 for Radiography. I'm not a chemist but if I were a betting man, I wouldn't drink the dirt.

Just my 02.

Isotopes of some of the elements are radioactive, but I can assure you all that cesium and barium by them selves are not radioactive unless they have been "charged up" by a neutron source or a gamma ray source. For the most part every atomic element can be found in Seawater, and the only ones that are hot are those ones created by man synthetically by atomic wastes. Granted there some of those elements in this guys brew are not my cup of tea if you will. I wouldn't use the stuff. Heavy metals like these are not what nature intended to be consummed by humans, some trace elements we have, but this shit is pretty well loaded up beyond what is healthy.
