Ammonia

[Guest guest]

That's true. and maybe I'll be one them some day! never know.

Mandi, how long does it take to get lead out? I know you have a lead

problem. Also, how is the formerly broken boy? Is he knitted back

together? My daughter had so many problems because she fell off a bouncy

castle and broke her elbow. Bad place for a fracture.

Marti,

So from what you have read, how would you get out lead?

Yes, I understand that it does, but I don't know offhand why.

Isn't the ammonia a waste that the yeast gives off? I'm not sure,

but seem to remember something along those lines in the gut healing

book, or possibly the catalogue of supplements, both from Kirkman

labs. I'm away from home right now, so I can't check my copies of

the books.

My son is taking alpha ketoglutaric acid to counteract the ammonia

given off by the yeast. His OAT test showed that he needed the alpha

Ketoglutaric acid. He had very high clostridia, as well as some

yeast.

I think that the above information about the ammonia is correct, but

will try to double check on it after I get back home, just in case....

I think it is the die off, and more bacteria die off than yeast die

off.

I think baking soda is overrated, but others love it. why not use lactulose

and/or oral butyrate. They are brilliant at reducing ammonia levels. The

lactulose does it very fast. The butyrate has another positive impact on

the liver. It is hard to get down, of course, and it smells. Over at

autism-challenge they've been talking about ammonia a lot. You might want

to check it out.

Marti, And also we should mention that lactulose can have some side

effects,

it can cause bloating, gas, and stomach upset. It is good about reducing

the ammonia, I am just concerned about the child having problems with

it, now butyrate, I haven't heard of any side effects from butyrate.

I give the lactulose to my son, but I give it with milk, milk that

is fresh and that has never been heated. Milk that has never been

pasteurized. Best, Carlton

Liver problems are the typical cause of elevated ammonia, which does

lead to encephalopathy.

As mentioned earlier, alpha keto glutarate helps.

Also restricting protein intake helps.

Also any and all liver support nutrients help.

Also in case there is an intestinal cause, a large amount of

probioitics help.

There are also some things with electrolyte and with agents to acidify

the bowel so as to retain the ammonia that are discussed in standard

books on gastroenterology and liver disease. You can find one online

by signing up for a free 10 day trial of www.mdconsult.com .

There are a few reasons why the levels could be high--

gut dysbiosis is one of them...

alpha -ketoglutaric acid is supposed to bring the levels down.

Good luck with your getting your health back!! I was hoping some of the more

it? I have taken a bath using hydrogen-peroxide so things which are new to me

could great?

I have heard that ammonia can clean the mold and I am wondering about

netralizing whichever toxin is on the mold?

Please people.. DON'T DO THIS..

It sounds very bad for you... I am not a doctor, but I do know that

ammonia can be toxic..

For example, this could blind you.. People absorb quite a bit of

whatever they come into contact with through their skin.. Especially

through mucous membranes.. osmality..

DON'T IMMERSE YOURSELF IN ANY THINGS YOU WOULDN'T LET GET INTO YOUR EYES..

How did you know you had high ammonia, was it from a test? I just wonder if

that is causing my boys sour stomach. Deb

My doc ordered a routine CBC and added " ammonia " to the script.

I don't know if there are other ways of testing other than the blood.

Ammonia is caused by bacteria and parasites and is often much worse during die

off.

It can also be due to protein malabsorbtion. AKG worked wonders here.

This is very interesting. How do you test for ammonia? What can you do about it?

Is it related to ph balance?

 

My son is 18, but has a b.o. that smells like ammonia, especially if he doesn't

have a good bm every day. He can take a bath and the smell is back within 2

hours. The doctor says there is nothing we can do except get a stronger

deodorant and antiperspirant. He eats chicken nuggets and things made with egg.

Refuses any other kind of meat.

 

Thanks for any info.
