Health risks for humans who drink water containing high sulfate levels
People not used to drinking water with high levels of sulfate can experience dehydration and diarrhea. Kids are often more sensitive to sulfate than adults. As a safety measure, water with a sulfate level exceeding 400 mg/l should not be used in the preparation of baby food. Older children and adults become used to high sulfate levels after a few days
try building up to the 2000mg a day to adjust your body to it. Or you can take a copper supplement to aid in absorption.
BOUNCER, check johans long ass thread about vitamin C....
and start taking 20-25 grams of vitamin C ed , theyll help alot with ur joints , energy levels and overall health
