What made you stop eating lots of blackstrap molasses? Any particular reason?
I'm wondering if I might be deficient in Iodine now that I'm looking more into various minerals. In the vertical diet, Stan efferding seems to be a big fan of cranberry juice to get your daily iodine requirements. I may hit up some cranberry juice and see if its beneficial for me at all. Cronometer doesn't seem to track iodine so I'm not sure.
I think what may have contributed to my magnesium problem was also the fact I have calcium fortified OJ now, so I have way more calcium which could cause magnesium deficiency. The calcium fortified OJ is here to stay though (probably), because I am quitting dairy, and it's very difficult to get the calcium I need relative to phosphorus with just blackstrap molasses.
