Coral Calcium

The other night, a recent infomercial caught my attention. Without mentioning any names, all I can say is that it was concerning calcium, coral calcium, to be precise. Following my anciently-acquired retrieval instincts I cruised the Internet till the wee-hours of the night(hmm... morning that is) with an adequate supply of coffee. Wow! Lots of good information was unearthed, and, I was even more impressed how many people were beating their drums to sell the stuff.  Immediately, I called a friend of mine, Don, a registered nutritionist working at a university hospital -- no slouch, mind you. "Don," I said, "what do you think of coral calcium?" Don did not even share my enthusiasm (one of my contagious habit). Needless to say that this lead to all sorts of "alarm bells" going off. Hey! Wait a minute!!! I thought I was a true vicarious "Missourian" skeptic; I had to be "shown."  How the <explotive deleted> break through my mental-firewall. Ha!, yes, a fatal flaw! ... I let my emotions take over and forgot that, no matter what there are always people beating their capitalistic drums. What did it? It was the quality of the infomercial and the enthusiasm and a lot more (hmm!!!.)

So what's going of with coral calcium? I invite you for an eye-awakening visit to Dr. Michael T. Murray site at:
