Nothing could be further from the truth. Through Metabolic Typing we know that any nutrient can have opposite effects in different Metabolic Types. This is why a nutrient that can help correct a condition in one person, can worsen the same condition in a different Metabolic Type. This is why it is believed that you should only take those supplements that are right for your Metabolic Type. Every nutrient raises or lowers up to 9 other nutrients.
Nutrients are nutrients.
It doesn't matter what form they are in. Depending on your Metabolic Type, any nutrient can be acidifying or alkalinizing. Metabolic Type, calcium is acidifying, but in a Fast Oxidizer, calcium is alkalinizing. Otherwise, the nutritional supplement will at best have a neutral effect, and at worst, actually worsen your existing imbalances. Only nutrients that are right for your Metabolic Type can provide all of these factors.
