Guest guest Posted January 29, 2001 Report Share Posted January 29, 2001 Penny, I've taken HCl which I bought at the health food store and had no negative side effects.. I chose a brand without the pepsin (because I'm vegan) but that's tough to find. Don't know about safety when chelating. S -------------------------------------------------------------- My friends son is having difficulties digesting his food and her doctor wants to prescribe hydrochloric acid. Does anyone know anything about this? Is it safe when doing chelation? Thanks, Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 29, 2001 Report Share Posted January 29, 2001 Leaky gut (dysbiosis or malabsoption) can look like failure to digest. S -------------------------------------------------------------- A failure to digest food can sometimes indicate a lack of the neurotransmitter, Gasprin, which is caused by an excess of Homocysteine which indicates a lack of Folic Acid. Stated in order of occurrence=>A deficiency of FA can result in an excess of HC. The excess of HC suppresses the production of essential neurotransmitters including: 1. Dopamine = The " feel good " neurotransmitter 2. Serotonin = The " good mood " neurotransmitter 3. Gasprin = which calls for stomach acid. A good indicator of a Gasprin deficiency is an urge to eat a lot of meat. The failure to produce enough acid to properly digest meat causes a B12 deficiency which actually causes the urge to eat more meat. 4. Secretin = which calls for pancreatic fluid to neutralize stomach acid in the intestine. A good indicator of a Secretin deficiency is chronic diarrhea and/or acidic stools. 5. Melatonin = which causes sleep and is used by the liver to remove toxins and cleanse the blood. If your child shows multiple deficiencies as listed above, you might see the problem fixed by giving 800mcg to 1600mcg of Folic Acid daily in the morning (an evening dose might prevent sleep).

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2001 Report Share Posted January 30, 2001 Betaine HCL might just kill 2 birds with one stone- it would lower homocysteine AND increase hydrochloric acid in the stomach!! Depending on your genetic makeup, folic acid may completely solve the problem, or it may not. Alone, it doesn't touch my high homocysteine, but I have mutations on both copies of the MTHFR gene. I need folic acid, B6, B12, and TMG (Betaine HCL is a different version of this) to keep it under control. I also take choline. High homocysteine is a dangerous condition, and I would encourage everyone on this list, including the adults, to ask for this test next time they are getting bloodwork drawn. High homocysteine leads to or is a marker for heart disease, stroke, repeated miscarriages, placenta attachment problems and preeclampsia in pregnancy, and offspring at risk for neural tube defects or Down syndrome. G I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once. -- Unlimited Re: [ ] Use of hydrochloric acid A failure to digest food can sometimes indicate a lack of the neurotransmitter, Gasprin, which is caused by an excess of Homocysteine which indicates a lack of Folic Acid.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2001 Report Share Posted January 30, 2001 My son uses Pepsin HCL (Hydrochloric acid) along with a prescription medicine called Lipram (creon is the generic, I believe) to help with digestion. He takes it with every meal and I don't think there is a problem with using it while chelating.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2001 Report Share Posted February 3, 2001 Maybe she should try EnzymAid, by Kirkman and it is casein free. They claim it activates the DPT4 enzyme which doesn't work for autistic kids. Thats really all I know about it, bought it at the Dan conference.
