@Bernadette_Abraham the dose per a capsule is 648mg , NOW supplements.

Hmmm,ok. 😅 thank you , now there is only one way to find out and that’s to keep betaine and increase the dose and see.

Ok , great. Thank you. @Bernadette_Abraham

Well actually I tried both, apple cider and betaine one time and didn’t feel anything, the only time I always feel burning in the stomach is with cayenne pepper. So is it possible that my acidity is that low or betaine that I have already expired even if expires in August this year 🙈 something is wrong here , if this isn’t strong enough for me then I doubt bitters can help. But the truth is I never went more than 3 capsules on betaine and plus digestive enzymes contains betaine too

@Bernadette_Abraham Thank you for the answer. What about benign fibroadenomatoid hyperplasia (breast cysts) , as they can also grow at some point, is L glutamine safe in this case too?

Also, any alternative for boosting hcl without supplements, something like lemon, cayenne pepper, apple cider vinegar? I’m getting tired of all the supplements, can any of these be effective? I take 3 betaine hcl plus digestive enzymes , don’t feel anything and never tried to go more than this dosage, today I took berberine hcl 400mg plus ox bile 500mg and got diarrhea straight after.

Glutamine and cancer: metabolism, immune microenvironment, and therapeutic targets - Cell Communication and Signaling

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in human serum, and it can provide carbon and nitrogen for biosynthesis, which is crucial for proliferating cells. Moreover, it is widely known that glutamine metabolism is reprogrammed in cancer cells. Many cancer … Continue reading

@Bernadette_Abraham somatic breathwork I don’t think I have ever tried, I found it now and will try for sure 👍 Thanks

Yes I can join, let me know when it will be. And I will definitely watch this episode. Stress reduction has to be a priority, still don’t understand how this garage app works?

@Bernadette_Abraham Ok, ordered now everything and let’s see how it will go! Thank you. Yes, I can definitely say I have chronic stress since my childhood(that’s a long story) I worked with psychologist in the past but even with her I was always stressed, I don’t think there are moments I can be fully relaxed, I have inner stress , don’t know how to explain, it’s not that when you see me you would say I’m stressed, this is hidden stress. I’m doing red light therapy, breathing exercises, meditation, massages, stretching and while I’m doing it I’m fine but during the day the “stiff” feeling is always with me, unexplained…

I miss the nature so much, it’s been 4 years I’m in Dubai and I lost contact with the nature, think few months in the woods would restart my vagus nerve and activate parasympathetic NS. 🍀

Here are the results of SIBO test , clearly negative and I don’t feel like overgrowth is back , last time I had it I knew it immediately with all the symptoms, but now my stomach is warm and no pain, bloating, nothing… but stool isn’t good yet, and clearly I don’t absorb anything yet how I should and can’t gain weight, never been more skinnier than now…😢

@Bernadette_Abraham Thank you very much for quick reply. Do I understand well, I need to supplement with B12 even of it’s high? You think it’s inactive? That part I stil don’t get, before I order supplements just to be sure 100%. 🙈

Also this part on the test where they said iron deficiency , all points that I’m not iron deficient… and part about kidneys, which I saw something is also high, can I be dehydrated , my sodium is also on a lower side, few years ago I switched from table salt to Celtic sea salt , table salt has much more sodium than Celtic and not sure am I taking enough salt?!

For thyroid I will do a full retest after this supplement, I like it, thank you. 🙏

And which dose of vitamin D3 you suggest daily?

@Bernadette_Abraham will definitely watch everything, that’s why I have to unlock everything first, I want to see all the 11 courses. Well from all my investigations and experiments I can definitely say not enough acid is one of them for sure, but funny last time I complained on acid reflux to my gastro I immediately got tablets to reduce acidity, on a long term that’s created more problems for sure. Bile flow also, definitely, with ox bile supplement my stool became normal so here and there we know what’s the problem, also digestive enzymes helps, but I don’t want to be on this forever, that’s when it becomes hard, how do I go back to normal like before when nothing of this happened… no never, only TSH, t3 and t4, but not free and reverse…. This is what I did yesterday and waiting for results, but again only tsh,3 and 4….

Aghh, from our previous conversations I understood 1000mg 1-2 x day , so I took 1000mg immediately, saw the Swanson too but was looking for 1000…it’s ok , the body tell us everything 😅

But why I didn’t have any reaction on an empty stomach, can be it was just limonene without PC so it wasn’t that strong?

Anyway, thank you, I feel so much better in general and hated to see this happened today, but now I know. Also, can I ask, I can’t gain weight, now when all the symptoms eased , no SIBO , think I found my ok food that don’t cause any problems for my GI, I still can find I digested food in my stool, and is this related due to nutrient malabsorption so no matter how much and what I eat it just weight can’t go up? 😰

I understand it will take some time to go completely back to normal, but it’s frustrating…

@Bernadette_Abraham thorne should be a great brand , as for limonene brand I never heard, first time I bought this brand, limonene 1000mg ,PC 420mg. It’s just horrible feeling, guess it will take up to 24 hours to clear out? I don’t think I want to drink this ever again, not even a smaller dose 😂

How about milk thistle and NAC?

Thanks for the explanation

For the membership I will have a look and text you if I can’t change it.

Good morning @Bernadette_Abraham how are you?

So I started supplementing with D -limonene and phosphatidyl choline , I took one gel of limonene yesterday alone without food, I felt nothing. Today, immediately after breakfast I took both supplements together and I felt awful, nauseous, burping, my whole mouth was smelling like orange peel, stomach discomfort and unable to focus, it was just horrible. As I’m taking other supplement for a few days already and everything is ok, I can tell this is reaction on limonene. I was also listening some podcasts with dr Michael Ruscio, and I think he said with all this natural experiments ,you have to feel unwell at first to feel well , so should I continue with this and what this tell for my liver?

I’m still waiting for blood test results, they called me from hospital to say my SIBO is negative, waiting to see the diagram as well, but think the nurse said it was 2ppm, hydrogen gas.

Also , please about membership, is it possible to pay a difference for this month to unlock everything monthly payment without being double charged, and to continue to pay monthly all inclusive, easier to unsubscribe when I’m not using the platform and to subscribe again after summer break as I’m not gonna be using anything for July and August for sure.

Thank you in advance ☺️

Yes , let me know how to change it, thanks 😊

Thank you, I need to subscribe on better package to be able to unlock half of the things you shared today 😅

Yes, was tested on celiac too, negative 🙈 all tests I have ever done was negative, after talking to my cousin and explaining symptoms, as he has copy/paste he said test on SIBO and imagine, the only thing I wasn’t tested for was the thing 😅 but still this is just a symptom, it’s hard to tell what’s causing it for sure.

Is there anything from the tests you would add to check to be more sure?

But definitely, all the supplements I’m taking plus food I’m eating now I see the improvement, also one thing, my stool is normal now, the only thing it’s a bit more “greenish “, can this definitely be bile related issue?

And also , sorry, I’m boring now but just remember few things, as I definitely see the improvement after taking oregano oil, can my SIBO be actually fungal based? Also, the color of the tongue 👅 which was more white before can tell about digestion, right?

Thank you very much for everything . Yes I had ultrasound multiple times, nothing there. I did full endoscopy too, nothing there either. Which is great actually, as it some point I thought I was dying,all the symptoms together were horrible, weight loss, brain fog, anxiety,depression,bloating,pain ,reflux … Now I’m doing much better after all experiments I’m doing, but definitely trying to stay away from the doctors as only they know is to prescribe the medicine to treat symptoms…I will order these supplements now to try 💪🏻
