The right Phosphorous-Calcium balance lays the foundation for your good health

For best health protection, 97 year old farmer Percy Weston (see his important and highly readable book Cancer: Cause and Cure) recommends that our Phosphorus intake be less than our Calcium intake from food.

In most NZ diets, we get far more Phosphorous than Calcium.

This makes our body cells acid and lowers our ideal pH level. It also lays the foundation for numerous health problems.

To help you balance your Phosphorous and Calcium intake, and lay a good foundation for health, David Coory, author of New Zealand's top selling health book "Stay Healthy by Supplying What’s Lacking in Your Diet" has compiled this easy-to-use, colour coded booklet listing the Phosphorus and Calcium levels of 500 NZ foods.

By using the simple charts found in this $5 booklet "Phosphorous and Calcium Levels in NZ Foods" you can ensure that your Phosphorous intake from food is less than your Calcium intake. This helps you maintain the pH of your body at the optimum level.

 You may however find that you need to boost your Calcium intake.

How to use this booklet

The booklet lists approx 500 common New Zealand foods, in typical serving amounts, and displays alongside each food the Phosphorus and Calcium levels in mgs (milligrams). 

When a food is is evenly balanced in Phosphorous and Calcium, the food is given a ~ mark. If a food is higher in Calcium it is given a tick a .  If higher in Phosphorus it is given a cross x, as in the chart below. 

Just because a food has an x or xx it does not mean it is not a good food, only that it is out of balance and needs to be balanced with a high Calcium food.

aa High Calcium, over twice the level of Phosphorus.

a      Balance good, Calcium and Phosphorus within 10%.

 ~      Balance OK, Calcium to Phosphorus within 50%.

 x      Balance poor, Phosphorus more than double Calcium.

xx     Imbalanced, over 10 times Phosphorus to Calcium.

The critical Phosphorus - Calcium - Magnesium
 balance of your body

Phosphorus is essential for our body, but can become a deadly poison when not able to combine with Calcium, or if our kidneys are not able to excrete the surplus fast enough. (Excess Phosphorus is used as a poison for rodents.) 

The optimum amount of Phosphorus for lifelong health appears to be about 500 mg a day for women, and 600 mg a day for men.

(Body builders and those involved in strenuous muscle sports may require more, but they should at the same time, also increase their Calcium and Magnesium intake.) 

The ideal ratio of Calcium, Phosphorus and Magnesium (the three bulk minerals which work together in all mammals), is 4 - 2 - 1, ie, 4 parts Calcium to 2 parts Phosphorus to 1 part Magnesium.  

In our meat-based New Zealand diet, (and also because of the widespread use of super-phosphate chemical fertiliser which tends to increase Phosphorus levels in food and depress Calcium levels) this intake is more like 1 - 3 - 1, ie, 1 part Calcium, 3 parts Phosphorous, and 1 part Magnesium. 

This imbalance lays the foundation for many modern diseases and is why we are in the midst of a serious cancer epidemic in NZ. 

Successful cancer-cure diets all high
 in Calcium and low in Phosphorus 

All successful cancer-curing diets in the world involve low Phosphorus and high Calcium foods, which tend to be vegetables and fruit. Whereas meats are very high in Phosphorus and contain little or no Calcium. 

This little booklet shows you the Phosphorus and Calcium content of 500 NZ foods.

How to supplement your Calcium

 You can increase your Calcium intake by taking our high quality Coral C calcium capsules.

When you bring your Phosphorus and Calcium into balance, ideally as mentioned above, one part Phosphorus to two parts Calcium, and take Percy Weston’s famous trace mineral formula as contained within our CAA capsules you should achieve the balanced blend of minerals your body requires for optimum health.

These include the important trace minerals such as Selenium, Zinc, Copper, Chromium, Iodine and Boron which are lacking in our New Zealand soils but are found in the New Zealand formulation of Percy Weston's mineral formula. These minerals are essential to good health and a strong immune system. NZ farmers have proved this beyond doubt for years.
