Warning:<br />
Stay away<br />
from<br />
dangerous<br />
trees<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
ABOUT 30 of the 100 trees on the South<br />
New Brighton Domain estuary edge<br />
are at risk of falling at any time, says<br />
Coastal-Burwood Community Board<br />
deputy chairman Tim Sintes.<br />
He believes it is a serious health and<br />
safety risk, especially<br />
for people who<br />
use the domain<br />
walkway.<br />
“It’s not if, it’s<br />
when . . . those 30<br />
trees could fall down<br />
today, tomorrow or<br />
in five months time,”<br />
said Mr Sintes.<br />
City council head<br />
Tim Sintes<br />
of parks Brent Smith said the trees are<br />
being monitored.<br />
“One fallen tree on the beach of the<br />
estuary and five large tree stumps have<br />
been removed,” Mr Smith said.<br />
“There is a group of eight dead pine<br />
and macrocarpa trees near the boundary<br />
fence which will be removed due to<br />
safety. Treetech will also remove a<br />
number of broken branches in close<br />
proximity of the main walkway.”<br />
The work is expected to be carried out<br />
within the next two weeks. However<br />
Mr Sintes does not believe that is fast<br />
enough.<br />

YOU DON’T have to be a rocket scientist<br />
to work out the trees in South Brighton<br />
Domain are dangerous (see page 1).<br />
With any luck the tail end of Cyclone<br />
Gita will do its handy work overnight and<br />
the 30 or so trees community board member Tim Sintes says<br />
could fall at any time will be down.<br />
The city council has been working on the problem and more<br />
is to be done over the next fortnight.<br />
The photos tell the story, and the wind and water in the estuary<br />
will move and unbalance them further.<br />
So until they are cut down, stay away.<br />
Needless to say, the trees are rooted.<br />

Call for pedestrian crossing<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
HALSWELL residents may<br />
soon be able to walk across<br />
Ensign St “safely” if a pharmacy<br />
owner’s bid for a pedestrian<br />
crossing gets across the line.<br />
Karen Frater is worried someone<br />
will get hurt crossing the<br />
street outside<br />
her Halswell<br />
Pharmacy due<br />
to speeding<br />
vehicles.<br />
“It is a<br />
50km/h road<br />
Mike Mora<br />
but everyone<br />
seems to be in<br />
a hurry these days, I think that<br />
happens on every road, but then<br />
you’ve got a narrow road and<br />
people who are not necessarily<br />
100 per cent well,” she said.<br />
Mrs Frater said many<br />
residents park at the Halswell<br />
Medical Centre and then cross<br />
the road to the pharmacy to get<br />
medication.<br />
She said the street kerb is<br />
“precarious for someone elderly<br />
or with a walking frame.”<br />
There has also been a few “near<br />
misses” and residents have seen<br />
a need for a crossing on the<br />
street.<br />
“So if we could get something<br />
that slows people down in this<br />
area, that would be a bit better,”<br />
Mrs Frater said. She is also<br />
worried about Oaklands School<br />
and The Lighthouse Pre-school<br />
pupils crossing the road.<br />
She expressed her concerns<br />
at a Halswell Residents’<br />
Association meeting last month.<br />
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board chairman<br />
Mike Mora, member Ross<br />
McFarlane, and a city council<br />
staff member paid Mrs Frater<br />
a visit to see the problem firsthand.<br />
As a result, Mr Mora raised<br />
the issue at the community<br />
board meeting last week. The<br />
board asked city council staff<br />
to investigate a pedestrian<br />
crossing.<br />
Mrs Frater is pleased with the<br />
progress and the “proactive”<br />
approach from the residents’<br />
RISKY CROSS:<br />

Pipeline will<br />
stop wastewater<br />
discharge<br />
in harbour<br />
TWO NEW submarine<br />
pipelines will stop wastewater<br />
being discharged into Lyttelton<br />
Harbour.<br />
Untreated wastewater from<br />
Governors Bay and Diamond<br />
Harbour will be carried through<br />
the pipelines to a new pump station<br />
on Simeon Quay<br />
It will then be piped through<br />
the Lyttelton Tunnel to the<br />
Woolston pump station and onto<br />
the Bromley wastewater treatment<br />
plant, where it will be treated and<br />
discharged out to sea through the<br />
Christchurch Ocean Outfall.<br />
Local iwi carried out a blessing<br />
in Lyttelton last week ahead<br />
of construction work which is<br />
scheduled to start at the end of<br />
<strong>February</strong>.<br />
Deputy Mayor Andrew Turner<br />
spoke at the blessing, which was<br />
led by Rapaki representative Rewi<br />
Couch.<br />
Cr Turner said the new pipelines<br />
were essential to improve<br />
and future proof wastewater<br />
services in Lyttelton, Governors<br />
Bay and Diamond Harbour, and<br />
the project had important cultural<br />
and environmental benefits.<br />

About $1600 has been raised<br />

The specialist mental health<br />
services librarian at Hillmorton<br />
Hospital suffered two debilitating<br />
strokes at the age of six.<br />
Fifty-four years later she is still<br />
seeing progress and wants others<br />
to know they can too.<br />
Although the six-week long<br />
bike ride is “a particularly big<br />
challenge” and costing her<br />
money, Mrs Milne says “I’m up<br />
for it”.<br />
“I believe in raising awareness,<br />
especially for people who have<br />
had a stroke many years ago, and<br />
their families, who maybe feel<br />
stuck and don’t think that they<br />
have a chance of improving.”<br />
“I want to let them know that<br />
I am living proof that you can,”<br />
she said.<br />
Three years ago, Mrs Milne<br />
said she was “a mess”.<br />
After a back surgery, she could<br />
hardly put one foot in front of<br />
another.<br />
Her “good” leg wasn’t working<br />
very well and “all I had left was<br />
my good arm,” she said.<br />
So she bought a Fitbit and<br />
started walking.<br />
“I had no balance and was so<br />
unfit. I began by taking my car<br />
three quarters of the way to work<br />
and walking the other quarter.”<br />
In a year, she was walking<br />
70km a week, her heart rate had<br />
decreased, and she had managed<br />
to walk downstairs, something<br />
that was particularly difficult.<br />
Mrs Milne says initially she<br />
was “terrified” of riding a bike<br />
because of her balance issues.<br />
“I had to persevere and work<br />
really, really hard.”<br />

Villa Maria marks centenary<br />
IT HAS now been 100 since the<br />
Sisters of Mercy first welcomed<br />
pupils to Villa Maria College.<br />
The birthday was celebrated<br />
by more than 1500 guests over<br />
the weekend, culminating in a<br />
special mass and morning tea.<br />
“We are proud of our humble<br />
beginnings, we are grateful for<br />
the hard work given freely by the<br />
sisters throughout our history,<br />
and we are delighted to celebrate<br />
this special milestone with our<br />
community,” said principal<br />
Deborah Brosnahan.<br />
“The college was thrilled to<br />
see past pupils travelling from<br />
all over the world to be part of<br />
the celebrations, reconnecting<br />
with their friends, teachers and<br />
school staff. There were stories<br />
shared, memories relived, many<br />
laughs, and moments of quiet<br />
reflection for those who have<br />
passed,” said Ms Brosnahan.<br />
The weekend was opened with<br />
a live show, complete<br />
with music and drama, and<br />
a choir performance by past<br />
pupils.<br />
The show was followed by a<br />
reception outside in the college<br />
courtyard.<br />
On Saturday, the college<br />
hosted a family-friendly fun<br />
day, functions for past college<br />

HANGING ON: Tim Sintes said damaged trees in the South New<br />
Brighton Domain are a health and safety concern.<br />
Warning issued over dangerous trees<br />
•From page 1<br />
“They might have a few more<br />
to repair if this bad weather<br />
comes through . . . at this stage,<br />
they aren’t going to do it between<br />
now and the next few days, so<br />
if they all come down, they are<br />
going to have to move quicker<br />
than that.’’<br />
High winds and heavy rainfall<br />
is predicted for Christchurch this<br />
week, as the tail of Cyclone Gita<br />
hits.<br />
There is no signs or taping<br />
around damaged tress to warn<br />
the public of danger.<br />
“I believe there should be,” said<br />
Mr Sintes.<br />
Last month, a 30m tree with<br />
rotten roots toppled into the<br />
Avon River and sunk a Shirley<br />
Boys’ High School rowing boat.<br />
No one was injured.<br />
Mr Sintes said a lot more<br />
damage was done recently by<br />
the king tides and strong<br />
wind.<br />
However, he believes the cause<br />
relates to damage and erosion<br />
along the estuary edge, which<br />
was previously protected before<br />
the earthquakes.<br />
He is pushing for the estuary<br />
edge to be protected from<br />
erosion, which he believes<br />
would stop the trees from being<br />
damaged and falling.<br />
“If you look at some parts of<br />
the estuary edge that weren’t<br />
damaged in the earthquakes,<br />
there’s no problem at all,” said<br />
Mr Sintes<br />
It’s quite obvious that we’re not<br />
talking about climate<br />
change here, we’re talking<br />
about how there was something<br />
to protect them before the<br />
earthquake.<br />

Bid to get multiple sclerosis treatment in Russia<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
KERYN ASHWORTH needs<br />
$100,000 for a treatment which<br />
will enable her to “do the simple<br />
things” in life.<br />
The owner of Sharna’s Doggy<br />
Day Care and Dog Grooming<br />
in Hornby has suffered from<br />
multiple sclerosis for more than<br />
10 years.<br />
The disease, which damages<br />
nerve cells in the brain and<br />
spinal cord, causes symptoms<br />
such as numbness, impairment<br />
of speech and muscular coordination,<br />
blurred vision and<br />
severe fatigue.<br />
Ms Ashworth says a<br />
treatment available in Russia<br />
called hematopoietic stem cell<br />
transplantation could change her<br />
life.<br />
“The drugs I’m on at the<br />
moment cost the Government<br />
$50,000 a year. It’s ridiculous,<br />
absolutely ridiculous, and they’re<br />
not working,” she said.<br />
Ms Ashworth said, in the last<br />
five years and especially last year,<br />
her health has deteriorated.<br />
“There is just no drug and<br />
New Zealand doesn’t do HSCT.<br />
They’re not so much against it,<br />
they just want more proof of<br />
long-term results,” she said.<br />
She is planning to go to Russia<br />
later in the year for treatment.<br />
Natasha Musson and Lisa Fisher,<br />
of Burwood, as well as Northwood’s<br />
Lauren Smith are also<br />
planning to travel to Russia for<br />
the treatment.<br />
The $100,000 will cover return<br />
airfares for herself and her son<br />
Scott, medical costs, accommodation,<br />
and food expenses for five<br />
to seven weeks.<br />
She said Russia has been<br />
preforming the treatment for 18<br />
years and has had “phenomenal<br />
results.”<br />
But it isn’t a magic cure. Ms<br />
Ashworth says it “halts” the<br />
disease and, in some cases, it can<br />
improve a person’s condition.<br />

Brave by rose McGowan<br />
“My life, as you will read, has taken me from one cult to another. BRAVE is the story<br />
of how I fought my way out of these cults and reclaimed my life. I want to help you<br />
do the same.” - Rose McGowan. A revealing memoir and empowering manifesto -<br />
A voice for generations Rose McGowan was born in one cult and came of age in<br />
another, more visible cult: Hollywood. In a strange world where she was continually<br />
on display, stardom soon became a personal nightmare of constant exposure<br />
and sexualisation. Rose escaped into the world of her mind, something she had<br />
done as a child, and into high-profile relationships. Every detail of her personal<br />
life became public, and the realities of an inherently sexist industry emerged<br />
with every script, role, public appearance, and magazine cover. The Hollywood<br />
machine packaged her as a sexualized bombshell, hijacking her image and<br />
identity and marketing them for profit. Hollywood expected Rose to be silent and<br />
cooperative and to stay the path. Instead, she rebelled and asserted her true identity<br />
and voice. She re-emerged unscripted, courageous, victorious, angry, smart,<br />
fierce, unapologetic, controversial, and real as. BRAVE is her raw, honest, and<br />
poignant memoir/manifesto-a no-holds-barred, pull-no-punches account of the<br />
rise of a millennial icon, fearless activist, and unstoppable force for change who<br />
is determined to expose the truth about the entertainment industry, dismantle the<br />
concept of fame, shine a light on a multibillion-dollar business built on systemic<br />
misogyny, and empower people everywhere to wake up and be BRAVE.<br />
Supercharge Your Gut<br />
SUPERCHARGED FOOD by Lee Holmes<br />
Eat your way to better gut health, increased energy and<br />
happier moods. The research is in and the facts are<br />
undeniable: the gut has an immense influence over our<br />
health - directly impacting immunity, weight, sleep, mood and<br />
overall wellbeing. Yet many of us race through life ignoring<br />
this incredible ecosystem, until something wakes us up.<br />
The good news is that healing and maintaining a healthy<br />
gut is not difficult or time consuming. This simple two-day<br />
maintenance plan is supported by deliciously nourishing<br />
recipes, handy tips and information to enable you to enjoy the<br />
countless benefits of a happy, healthy gut, for life.<br />
The Cage by Lloyd Jones<br />
A powerful allegorical tale about humanity and dignity and<br />
the ease with which we can justify brutality. Two mysterious<br />
strangers turn up at a hotel in a small country town. Where<br />
have they come from? Who are they? What catastrophe<br />
are they fleeing? The townspeople want answers, but the<br />
strangers are unable to speak of their trauma. Before long,<br />
wary hospitality shifts to suspicion and fear, and the care of<br />
the men slides into appalling cruelty. Lloyd Jones’s fable-like<br />
novel The Cage is a profound and unsettling novel.<br />

teams to compete overseas.<br />
Archers picked for<br />
transtasman team<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
GREY GOOSE Wing Archery<br />
Society members Julia Harrison<br />
and mother and daughter<br />
shooters Maria and Lauren<br />
Tucker have been selected for<br />
New Zealand teams to compete<br />
overseas.<br />
Canterbury University’s Harrison<br />
along with Burwood’s Lauren<br />
have made the Archery New<br />
Zealand transtasman team.<br />
They will join the 24-strong<br />
team which will shoot against<br />
an Australian team in Morwell,<br />
Victoria, from April 19 to 23.<br />
Lauren, a year 12 student at<br />
Christchurch Girls’ High, will<br />
compete in the cadet women’s<br />
compound section while Harrison<br />
will shoot in the junior<br />
women’s recurve.<br />
Lauren’s mother, Maria, 54, will<br />
shoot for the Archery New Zealand<br />
World Cup team in Shanghai,<br />
China, from April 23 to 29 in<br />
the senior women’s recurve.<br />
All three are members of the<br />
club based on Ferry Rd. Maria<br />
and Lauren are coached by Colin<br />
Tucker, who is the president of<br />
the club, Maria’s husband and<br />
Lauren’s father.<br />
She qualified for the event<br />
for the first time at a meet in<br />
Rotorua last week and will join<br />
the 16-strong team to compete for<br />
a title. The rain and wind made<br />
things difficult for two days, but<br />
Maria persisted and was named<br />
in the side.<br />
“It is pretty awesome. Always<br />
wanted to do it, really quite<br />
stoked about it,” she said.<br />
She has also qualified for the<br />
Oceania Championships in New<br />
Caledonia from July 9 to 13.<br />
Also included in the transtasman<br />
team is North Canterbury’s<br />
Rebecca Jones and Ellesmere’s<br />

GREAT food<br />
BROUGHT TO YOU BY...<br />
Your fresh food people<br />
LAMB LOIN CHOPS WITH<br />
KUMARA, TOMATO AND<br />
LEMON<br />
Ingredients<br />
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil<br />
1 pinch sea salt<br />
1 pinch black pepper<br />
6 lamb loin chops<br />
2 red onions, freshly sliced<br />
2 cm root ginger, grated<br />
4 garlic cloves<br />
1 red chilli, finely chopped<br />
1 tbsp ras el hanout spice mix<br />
5 tomatoes<br />
800g kumara<br />
2 tbsp lemon juice<br />
1 tbsp soy sauce<br />
1 tbsp honey<br />
1 cinnamon stick<br />
500g rice<br />
1 handful coriander leaves<br />
CHICKEN WITH<br />
NECTARINES<br />
Ingredients<br />
1kg chicken breast, cut into<br />
generous bite-sized pieces<br />
25g butter<br />
1 cup chicken stock<br />
½ tsp fresh thyme, finely<br />
chopped<br />
½ tsp fresh rosemary, finely<br />
chopped<br />
1 tsp curry powder, mild<br />
1 tbsp cornflour, or arrowroot<br />
dissolved in 2 tablespoons of<br />
cold water<br />
½ cup cashew nuts, chopped<br />
3 nectarines, peeled, sliced<br />
1 pinch salt and pepper<br />
Directions<br />
Melt the butter and brown the<br />
chicken pieces.<br />
Add the chicken stock and<br />
the herbs and poach the<br />
chicken gently until cooked. Set<br />
aside.<br />
Add the curry powder and the<br />
dissolved cornflour to the liquid<br />
and warm to thicken.<br />
Add the nectarine slices and<br />
the chicken pieces to the sauce<br />
to warm through.<br />
Season with the salt and<br />
pepper.<br />
Finish with a squeeze of fresh<br />
lime or lemon to zing up the<br />
flavours.<br />
Garnish with the cashews.<br />
Instructions<br />
Preheat the oven to 180 deg C.<br />
On an element heat the olive oil<br />
in a flameproof casserole dish<br />
over a medium-high heat. Season<br />
the lamb chops liberally with salt<br />
and pepper, and brown on both<br />
sides. Remove the chops and set<br />
aside.<br />
Drain off all but one tbsp of<br />
oil from the casserole dish and<br />
reduce the heat to medium. Add<br />
the onions and cook, stirring,<br />
until softened, about 5min. Add<br />
ginger, garlic, chilli and ras al<br />
hanout, and stir for a couple of<br />
minutes until fragrant. Add the<br />
tomatoes and stir over the heat<br />
for another 5min.<br />
Add the browned lamp chops,<br />
kumara, lemon juice, soy sauce,<br />
honey and cinnamon. Pour in<br />
about 400ml water, enough to<br />
cover the chops. Put the lid on<br />
and cook in the oven for two<br />
hours.<br />
Uncover and skim off any<br />
excess fat from the surface. If the<br />
sauce is too thin, reduce over<br />
a medium-high heat for a few<br />
minutes. Adjust the seasoning -<br />
you may need an extra squeeze<br />
of lemon juice. Serve with<br />
steamed rice and some coriander<br />
leaves.<br />

Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or<br />
could it be mainly my muscles?<br />
The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham sees clients with<br />
a range of symptoms but many of their middle-aged and<br />
senior clients visit complaining of pain in one of their joints.<br />
Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests<br />
that a major part of the pain could be due<br />
to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.<br />
“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason<br />
for the pain may be the muscles around<br />
the joint,” she explains. The images show<br />
how a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back<br />
muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain<br />
are the red areas in the drawings), a knot<br />
in a muscle on the back of the shoulder<br />
blade can give a deep pain in the front of<br />
the shoulder and a muscle knot all the way<br />
near the groin can give an ache in the knee<br />
(especially at night in bed).<br />
Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year<br />
old client with severe arthritis who walked<br />
with a stick, told her, “I will end up in<br />
a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight<br />
through my right leg due to pain in my hip<br />
and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she<br />
was walking with her stick but without the<br />
severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was<br />
one of the factors that made her muscles<br />
spasm but the other was that older people<br />
move less and the flexed position the hip<br />
is in when we sit is particularly bad for<br />
the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that<br />
although the client was 89 and could have<br />
been “given up on” or told to live with the<br />
pain, she made a difference to her health<br />
and wellbeing.<br />
The same lack of movement can be the<br />
reason for your knee pain or your shoulder<br />
pain and the same few treatments could<br />
make a huge difference for you.<br />
At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques<br />
(massage and triggerpoint deactivation<br />
techniques) are used to release the muscles.<br />
The client also gets a home exercise<br />
program designed to mobilize and stretch<br />
the joint, strengthen the important core<br />
muscles and increase general strength and<br />
SHOULDER<br />
PAIN<br />
KNEE PAIN<br />
balance. They teach a movement sequence<br />
that stretches the joint in all directions<br />
whilst the client is able to lie safely on their<br />
bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients.<br />
In many cases having the muscles<br />
released and being taught how to maintain<br />
it, is enough to stay on top of the problem.<br />
HIP PAIN<br />
(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)<br />
If severe arthritis is the underlying cause,<br />
some maintenance therapy may be<br />
necessary, but that is often more affordable<br />
and, for older patients, better tolerated than<br />
surgery. In very few treatments the client<br />
will know if it is going to work for them or<br />
not, without financial commitment.<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Modern diet<br />
leads to illness!<br />
It’s not what you eat but what you absorb<br />
Two Australian Naturopaths Stephen<br />
& Shane noticed at the end of the <strong>20</strong>th<br />
century more & more of their patients<br />
were experiencing gut, bowel & digestive<br />
issues that were often leading to more<br />
serious chronic health conditions. Being<br />
Naturopaths they wanted to find what was<br />
going wrong & began extensive research.<br />
What they found was although their clients<br />
were generally eating good food they were<br />
not obtaining all the nutrients required<br />
for good health from this food. Further<br />
research showed one of the main problems<br />
was the digestive system, “it’s not what you<br />
eat but what you absorb.” Another wellknown<br />
problem is the soils the crops are<br />
grown in have been depleted of many trace<br />
elements & other nutrients that are known<br />
to be essential for good health & therefore<br />
the crops & food are also depleted. If we do<br />
not obtain all the nutrients we require the<br />
body will compensate to some degree but<br />
a lack of too many nutrients will eventually<br />
lead to health issues.<br />
Based on this they developed VITAL<br />
GREENS, a nutrient dense powdered<br />
formula that provides superior absorption<br />
as well as comprehensive nutrition. They<br />
decided on a powdered formula that<br />
could be made as a great tasting drink<br />
because liquid nutrition is the easiest<br />
way for the body to absorb nutrients<br />
especially if digestive issues are present.<br />
The formula provides 76 vital ingredients<br />
that work together in synergy optimising<br />
each other’s absorption & benefits. Vital<br />
Greens contains a carefully balanced blend<br />
of nutritionally rich greens, vegetables,<br />
fruits, minerals, vitamins, essential fatty<br />
acids, plant & herbal extracts, superfoods,<br />
powerful antioxidants, probiotics, essential<br />
amino acids, digestive enzymes, fibre plus a<br />
uniquely alkalising pea protein. It provides<br />
superior nutrition to a multivitamin &<br />
anyone will benefit from it. It is designed to<br />
provide all the nutrients the body requires<br />
for good health. It is also ideal for those in<br />
poor health, those recovering from injury<br />
or sickness, children, athletes, poor eaters<br />
& the elderly. It is also suitable for people<br />
with dietary restrictions & is gluten, wheat<br />
& dairy free. Vital Greens will help remove<br />
toxic waste from the body while supporting<br />

Are you Magnesium<br />
deficient?<br />
Minerals are the building blocks of<br />
good health. Some minerals are only<br />
needed in trace amounts where others<br />
like magnesium are need in much larger<br />
amounts & on a regular basis to prevent<br />
deficiency & maintain optimum health. A<br />
large number of us do not obtain sufficient<br />
magnesium from our diet & may notice<br />
some of the common signs of deficiency.<br />
Some of the more common symptoms that<br />
may be caused by insufficient magnesium<br />
are: leg & muscle cramps, twitches, muscle<br />
pain, muscle fatigue & weakness, tremors<br />
of hands, blurred vision, restlessness, poor<br />
sleep, raised &/or unstable blood pressure,<br />
poor circulation, irregular heartbeat,<br />
shortness of breath, swallowing problems,<br />
dizziness, headaches, anxiety, agitation,<br />
irritability, seizures, poor concentration &<br />
many more.<br />
Although many young people now show<br />
signs of magnesium deficiency symptoms<br />
generally worsen as we age due to our<br />
digestive system being less efficient. Taking<br />
a magnesium supplement of sufficient<br />
strength may be a sensible option to top<br />
up our vital magnesium levels. Not all<br />
magnesium supplements however are<br />
well absorbed by everyone. Luckily a new<br />
marine sourced magnesium has been<br />
found that offers good levels of absorbable<br />
magnesium as well as many trace nutrients<br />
that are low in the diet but essential for<br />
good health.<br />
