There is a medication given to dialasys patients called Phoslo, aka Calcium Acetate. It's purpose is to bind the excesive phosphate. (that oddly enough effects us much in the same way as Chams) It tends to be a problem for people in kidney failure making it hard for our bodies to process calcium resulting in weak and brittle bones. It is also used as a food aditive in candy.

Just wondering what ya'lls thoughts are on using some of this dusted on the crickets the essentially negate the high phos in the crickets.

Hmm I'm not up on my chemestry so I'm not sure if this would also possibly be a substitute for Calcium dusting.
