CAA is manufactured by a reputable company NZN Nutraceuticals Ltd in Tauranga. They have a state-of-the-art factory which complies with the highest modern manufacturing standards. CAA also complies fully with currently approved standards of ingredient quality and amounts of each nutrient. These amounts are set by medical health professionals. For example the arthritis-preventing mineral Boron in CAA is not approved for use in human supplements in Australia.

All nutrients in the CAA capsules are natural to the body and are in normal daily amounts. So they should not react with medical drugs. The symptoms the drugs are treating however may gradually disappear, or reduce over a three month period as you take CAA. The drugs could then possibly affect you abnormally. This aspect would need to be monitored with your doctor. Click here to see a list of some testimonials to give you an idea of the excellent results users are getting with CAA.

Once toddlers are eating solid food they should be able to take one CAA capsule every second day, or half the contents of one capsule every day. This can be mixed with their food or in baking if they don't like to take a capsule. But monitor this carefully at first to make sure there are no reactions. During teenage growth spurt years, the need for minerals skyrockets. See similar questions...

Yes, very much so. It is even more important to take CAA while attempting to become pregnant, so as to have all required trace minerals during first two weeks following conception. This is when the foundation of a healthy child is laid down. By the time you discover you are pregnant it can be too late. NZ farmers have found that supplementing their animals prior to breeding provides excellent, healthy progeny. See similar questions...

There should be no risk of overdosage on CAA as all the ingredients are those found in normal wholesome foods. The several minerals that could be toxic in excess, Selenium, Boron, Copper and Iron are well within safety levels. even if five capsules a day were to be taken. See similar questions...

A doctor who owned the company that formerly manufactured CAA for us, has suggested that reactions to natural minerals such as found in CAA can sometimes be the body healing itself. He advised that rather than stopping altogether, it would be better to cut down the frequency for a few weeks, perhaps just one every three days, and see if the symptoms die down, and then try resuming the full dose.

Percy Weston did not include Calcium in his powders, perhaps because Calcium was not a deficient mineral in the very early days of acid fertiliser use in Australia. It is however nowadays a seriously deficient mineral, with typical levels in most crops having dropped about 50% over the past 75 years. The 1997 NZ Health Dept diet survey found that Calcium was the most deficient mineral of all the minerals surveyed in the NZ diet, especially among non-milk drinkers. See similar questions...

Speckling is caused by dampness entering the capsules through the joins. NZ homes and especially kitchens are comparatively damp places as a rule. Because the minerals in CAA are highly absorbable, they are also necessarily hygroscopic, or readily inclined to absorb moisture, or dissolve in water. This problem can usually be avoided by keeping the lid screwed on tight, or better still, storing the CAA in the fridge which is much drier than the household air. See similar questions...

No guarantee, but it does seem to be the best bet by far. CAA was developed by 100 year old Australian farmer Percy Weston over a 50 year period. He started off curing his sheep of Arthritis, and then cured himself of serious Arthritis during his late 30's. When he turned 100 years old in 2003 he still had no Arthritis. However this is a two part program, it is necessary to keep your Calcium intake from food above your Phosphorus intake. See similar questions...

Yes. I have followed Percy Weston's approved formula in the amount of Vitamin C contained in CAA, but more can often be useful. However research has shown that just one apple a day, eaten with the skin, can provide the equivalent Vitamin C anti-oxidant action of 1000 mg of Vitamin C. Yet an apple only contains 10-15 mg of Vitamin C, but it is greatly multiplied by the flavonoids found in the skin of the apple. See similar questions...

Nearly all foods naturally combine minerals that have been reported to conflict with each other under unnatural conditions. These unnatural conditions commonly arise during laboratory experiments involving human volunteers taking minerals on empty stomachs, or in the form of tablets that do not break up immediately in the stomach. Under these unnatural conditions, minerals travel together in a small clump down the narrow 7 meter length of the small intestine and can compete with each other. See similar questions...

There is no direct correlation between iu's and mcg's and mg's, it varies with each vitamin. My book "Stay Healthy by Supplying What's Lacking in Your Diet" has a conversion formula for each vitamin. One mcg of Vitamin D equals 40 iu. Therefore CAA which contains 5 mcg of natural Vitamin D would supply you 200 iu. Our CoQ10-Omega3 also contains 5 mcg/200 iu of natural Vitamin D per capsule. I strongly suggest sun bathing as the best way to make up any shortfall of Vitamin D. See similar questions...

We have had reports of CAA reducing Cholesterol, nevertheless high Cholesterol appears to be more often due to ongoing mental stress, rather like high blood pressure. A balanced diet providing all trace minerals and vitamins is essential for the optimum levels of Cholesterol in our body cells and blood. The correct mineral balance also helps to minimise stress as some minerals, such as Selenium, Calcium and Magnesium are natural relaxants. See similar questions...

For Gout we recommend taking Colloidal Silver and CAA together. This combination has cured painful long-standing serious gout with two of our local Maori customers. Yes, excess Phosphorus, which is found mostly in high protein foods, does block the uptake of Calcium in food. You can avoid this by limiting your Phosphorous intake to no more than 500-600 mg a day (use our yellow $5 Phosphorous-Calcium booklet as a guide) and ensuring that your Calcium intake is 700 mg or more.
