Sodium Thiosulfate notachemistbut (Baltimore, Maryland) on 07/10/2025
The instructions are to take one pellet or rice-grained size of sodium thiosulfate in a glass of water. The precaution is that this may drain you of your minerals if taken regularly. We need a lot of minerals every day, including about 1 gram of calcium and 400 mgs of magnesium. I'm not a chemist, but I know that molecules, being material things, have material limitations. For example, the more molecules that a molecule "wants" to bind to, the bigger it has to be. When we compare one "rice grain" of sodium thiosulfate (or any other substance) to a gram of calcium, it's really miniscule in comparison. In fact, if we use actual rice grains as the basis of our comparison, it takes about 49 rice grains to make one gram. This makes me wonder how much calcium a pellet of sodium thiosulfate would be able to leech out of someone's body. Sure, it might aggravate an already-existing calcium or other mineral deficiency, but I don't see how it could create a deficiency where one doesn't already exist. Can someone please explain this to me? It seems to me like a person would need more than one rice grain of a non-specific detox agent such as sodium thiosulfate if they're serious about eliminating toxins.
