Not sure why the link did not work. Try taking the Phosphorous off the end and you will get an index page: http://www.brandywinechiropractic.com/minerals/
You can click on phosphorous from this page and it works. Must be their server. 10:4 is 5:2 or 2.5:1 if you reduce it. That is close to 1.2-2 : 1 , and about as accurate as you will get under conditions that include a variety of metabolisms and conditions. It is a range and there is no absolute values for many reasons. But people like absolutes and guarantees so scientists try to comply, they also like to get published and differing with another work is one way to do it. It is "common" knowledge as in there is no proprietary inforamtion of copy righted publication involved. It can be stated over and over without specific refernces since it has been known and widely accepted by investigators for many years. Guess it comes down to semantics, but I think you mis applied the terms I use. I assume a certain level of familiarity here with the "jargon". You expect someone to back up everything they say? On an internet list? WOW! You must be disappointed quite often. I simply do not have the time but would hate to quit posting because someone expects full documentation. My time is valuable and I contribute much of it for personal reasons. But I do not plan to start documenting everything I know. That would take a very long time and you would acutally be quite bored if you got through even half of what I said about my sources. Again the nutritional values of food and RDAs are just that recommended allowances, not hard and fast absolutes. There are too many variables, like what kind of stress the individual is under, metabolic differences, toxin exposures ...
