Anyone else giving this a serious shot? I'm curious to trade strategies, wondering if mine is the dominant one and this is a competition of research or a competition of strategies.
My strategy: recommending basically no supplemental minerals, except where indicated by testing.
I've given up on it. I'm deeply unimpressed by what mineral research I've looked at - it all seems like my original comment, that they are useful chronically during development, but not acutely after you're a grown adult (except in rare cases of major deficiency like iron deficiency for pica or anemia, which is equally useless).
You should turn what you've done into a post at least.
I didn't keep terribly good notes, so I'm not going to bother; people can just see what the contestants produce.
