I agree for the most part. Guaifenesin is now an OTC and so is the other

ingredient in her plan. Dr St Armand developed a protocol helpful to some

using guaifenesin with dietary restrictions on salicylates which he says use

the

same receptor site on the kidneys as does Guai. Lots of herxing as I

understand.

I think it is healthier to change one's diet to deal with acid reflux and

perhaps use MAGNESIUM instead of Calcium (Tums) as an antiacid. Most people

are Mg deficient and especially those with FMS. Adding more Calcium just

increases the imbalance.

Just my two cents.....

Hi Jennie,

No, it doesn't make sense. And Hillenbrand will not provide any proof that

is does work --

it's all theory. She also removes questions from her message board that

asks for proof or

disagrees with her " discovery " . Doesn't want anyone rockin' the boat.

Keep in mind she's not a doctor, yet she's claiming to have found a cure for

fibro, and

offers advice on prescription drugs to people desperate to get well. (Also

recommends

TUMS, a calcium supplement loaded with artificial colors and flavors. Not

good.)

If anything, her so-called protocol just suppresses symptoms for some people

with too

much stomach acid, it does nothing to actually treat or cure fibromyalgia.

Just my two cents,

Dan
