Guide to OPTIMISE with Supplementation

The Rationale for OPTIMUM Nutrient Supplementation

It is our educated belief from our research and personal experience that we are simply not receiving enough of the essential vitamins and minerals (nutrients) for our immediate needs, let alone long term needs.  They are no longer adequately available in our food supply, certainly not in the heavily promoted and recommended dietary guidelines - the food pyramid,  which appear to have been developed in the absence of any thought about nutritional content or micronutrients. 


Dr Abram Hoffer et al highlighted this. He posited the idea that long term nutrient insufficiency will lead to nutrient dependency (see article: "Editorial, Vitamin Dependency"), and that this group will require significantly higher levels of all nutrients permanently to reestablish and maintain health adequate health.


Step 1: Take ALL Essential Vitamins and Minerals

To OPtiMISE it is critical that the body receives ALL the essential Vitamins and Minerals in optimal amounts. Each nutrient has very complex interrelationships and interdependencies upon one another and operate synergistically - simply speaking they need each other in order to work effectively to repair and maintain the BODY and MIND. (See Research Paper: "Nutrient Interrelationships Minerals — Vitamins — Endocrines" for more information.  We also strongly recommend that you read more than just this paper to get a full understanding about Nutrients and their complex relationships.  This field is complex, and somewhat contradictory, so read wide).


Step 2: Optimise Dosing of all Essential Vitamins & Minerals

What amount is the right amount for each individual?  For guidance on what to take, and how much we refer to the Orthomolecular Society. The Orthomolecular Society forms the foundation for many of our recommendations. But as with everything in life, the responsibility starts and finishes with YOU - you need to ascertain what works best for you, considering your current state of health, and stressors - both internal (underlying conditions) and external (environmental toxins). These two factors, and many others, have huge bearing on each individuals nutrient requirements.  


In our research on optimal nutrient doses, it comes back time and again that OPTIMAL dose studies have not been done; associated with multiple calls in the nutritional literature for such research to be done.  One may refer to the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) - but this appears to have no scientific foundation, and according to the Orthomolecular Society published articles, is the minimal amount of each nutrient to prevent the associated nutritional deficiency becoming clinically apparent - that is visible symptoms. It is commonly stated that the RDA's are far far too low to be of any value what so ever, particularly when the body has been subjected to a long period (years) of nutritional insufficiency.  (see article: "A Critique of Nutritional Recommendations")


Step 3: Frequency of Dosing

To OPTIMISE, it is recommended that all our recommended vitamins and Minerals are purchased and taken together following each main meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner).  Our rationale for this is that, in an ideal world, we should be obtaining all our vitamins and minerals from our food, and in food all the vitamins and minerals come combined, not separated.  Therefore logic dictates that one should generally consume supplements as part of food and let the body sort it out.


Step 4: Potential Detoxification Symptoms

Be aware that when changing diet and nutrition, the body may start to detoxify itself from the historical build up of toxins from historical poor diets and toxin exposures.  When this happens, it can cause what feels like an illness with flu-like symptoms.  If concerned, consult your health professional and educate yourself.  Read "Personal Experience" next paragraph for more details.


Personal experience - Ian

Back in 2017, overnight I switched from the standard western diet (which has been rolled out throughout the world, and stems from the Standard American Diet, appropriately shortened to SAD - introduced in 1980) to a Low Carb, High Fat, and as organic as possible, diet (see video presentation: "The benefits of a Low Carb High Fat (LCHF) diet for Elite Athletes" by Professor Tim Noakes on his video page) - a type of diet that previous generations ate before the industrial revolution.  (Subsequent to the industrial revolution, industry started pulling food apart at increasing rates and recombining it - now known as processed foods, which are largely empty toxic carbs, which are then fortified and called food).  (see article: "Comparison of Traditional Indigenous Diet and Modern Industrial Diets and Their Link to Ascorbate Requirement and Status") Within a few days, the body went into what is described as the "Keto Flu".  Effectively I believe that the body took the opportunity detoxify itself from accumulated toxins.  This created flu-like symptoms.  Associated with the Keto Flu, I also developed a high thirst.  I subsequently discovered through research, that the thirst was not diabetes (had this checked by my GP also), but what I suspect was the result of a trace mineral imbalance.  A Keto forum (link lost) recommend the drinking of a full mineral salt one to two teaspoons per day sipped slowly with water to rebalance the trace mineral elements, which allows water reuptake by the cells - it worked within hours - thirst was gone.  (See video presentation: "The importance of Salt & Water" & "Are we blaming Salt for what the Sugar did?" ).  Never felt better, eating as close to what Nature intended, and supplementing optimally to help the body undertake repairs from the years of damage from toxins and nutrient insufficiency

We suggest that each person use:

1) SPACE energy - pure Ascorbic Acid

2) SPACE energy - pure Niacin

3) SPACE energy - B 100 Complex

4) SPACE energy - Magnesium Complex

5) SPACE energy - Vitamin D3

6) SPACE energy - Tri Zinc

7) SPACE energy - Multi Max

8) Obtain & use a full mineral salt

(In addition to the above, we suggest obtaining a full mineral salt such as Pink Himalayan Salt for trace minerals.  Do not use standard table salt (sodium chloride) as this will cause imbalance.  

For a good understanding see Barbara O'Neills video: "The importance of Salt & Water" & Dr David Unwin's video: "Are we blaming Salt for what the Sugar did?".


Ian's Vitamin Routine

1) Ascorbic Acid:

5,000mg 3 x day following meals - breakfast, lunch & dinner (Total:15,000mg/day).  5,000mg is one 5ml teaspoon - I slightly raise mine as this stuff is great.  I mix it with about 2 inches of water (and Niacin powder - see below) and use it to swallow the other vitamin capsules.  I do put more water in the glass to swirl down the residue - don't like to waste it. (This is around my bowel tolerance, but will up significantly if need to depending on how I am feeling, or what I have been doing - toxic risk.  Interestingly I have not had to for reasons of illness coming on - no illness what so ever in years)

Additionally, Sometimes I use 2500mg (½ metric teaspoon or 1.25ml) between meals - so morning tea, afternoon tea & kind of before bed.  For these Ascorbate doses I use a full glass of water and stir till dissolves, then sip on for an hour or less.  This gives me a total of around 22.500mg/day.  (See articles: "The Gift of Vitamin C" and "The Method of Determining Proper Doses of Vitamin C for the Treatment of Disease by Titrating to Bowel Tolerance")

2) Niacin:

1,000mg 3 x day following meals (3,000mg/day).  1,000mg is ¼ metric teaspoon measure 1.25ml - I level this spoon off to keep dose accurate.  I mix it with about 2 inches of water with the Ascorbic Acid as above as taking all together, but you can use separately - tastes lemony like Ascorbic Acid.  (See article: "Negative and Positive Side Effects of Vitamin B3" and more in Knowledge section)

(3 - 7) Vitamins &

Minerals above:

I take one capsule/tab of each of the listed Vitamins & Minerals three times per day following meals, swallowing them down with the Ascorbic & Niacin blended water.  NB: Magnesium can also cause bowel tolerance issues, and confuse the cause with Ascorbic Acid.  However, I have not experienced this with the dose of Magnesium I take.

8) Himalayen Salt:

I mix a shaken off teaspoon (not measuring teaspoon) slightly raised with a full glass of water and sip away on it first thing in the morning.  Takes me about ½ hour to drink, and usually sip away on it with my ½ resistance training session.  I repeat this in the evening with my second ½ hour resistance training session.  (NB: Resistance training is latest phrase for weight training)  I find that without it, I suffer cramp in my feet when you curl your toes up.  And as mentioned above, since my insatiable thirst - I keep it up.  We need a full mineral salt.  For a good understanding see Barbara O'Neills Video: "The importance of Salt & Water". Also see video by Dr David Unwin (GP) "Are we blaming Salt for what the Sugar did?" for an introduction to the interactions of sugar and salt.


Side note: South African indigenous peoples have gathered and drunk sea water for generations - just sipping away on a glass or two per day.  If you search the internet about drinking seawater you will receive around 90% negative information.  However, anyone who has spent a day at the beach sunning and swimming will know how great one feels that evening. And the many generations who have grown up by the sea have never suffered any ill effects from exposure to sea (salt) water no matter how much you swim in it.

Scott's Vitamin Routine

1) Ascorbic Acid:

3 x 2500mg daily Morning, noon & night - I mix in about 1 inch of water (with Niacin powder – see below) and take like you would a shot. Straight down the hatch, then repeat a couple times to get residue from bottom of glass. I then fill the glass and take the other vitamins, see below), rinsing my teeth in the process ( to wash the ascorbic off my teeth, as it is slightly acidic) (See articles: "The Gift of Vitamin C" and "The Method of Determining Proper Doses of Vitamin C for the Treatment of Disease by Titrating to Bowel Tolerance")

2) Niacin:

1,000mg 3 x day following meals (3,000mg/day).  1,000mg is ¼ metric teaspoon measure 1.25ml - I level this spoon off to keep dose accurate.  I mix it with about 2 inches of water with the Ascorbic Acid as above as taking all together, but you can use separately - tastes lemony like Ascorbic Acid.  (See article: "Negative and Positive Side Effects of Vitamin B3" and more in Knowledge section)

3-6) Vitamins &

Minerals above:

2 x Tri Zinc (one morning, one with lunch); 

2 x B 100 complex (one morning, one with lunch)

2 x Vitamin D3 (one morning, the second is dependent on how much sun I’ve been exposed to during day)

1 x Magnesium Complex (night)

1 x Multi Max (morning)

Himalayen Salt:

As per Ian, I regularly drink 1 - 2 teaspoons per day mixed into my drinking bottle when training and travelling.
