But Tony, didn't your uncle feel much improved on his ARB? I think it has something to do with the way our disease manifests whether we get results or not.

has decreased 5 fold since starting benicar, by the way. I see there's a study on that interesting phenomenon, which Mark cited in his piece). As you know, I'm also one of the people who absolutely cannot tolerate minocycline which is the mainstay of the MP.

Penny,

I am now thinking, as of reading Mark’s

overview of Recuperat-ion, that it is a very different protocol than salt/C. I

am thinking that high levels of sodium chloride would be a very different thing

from a relatively low intake of sodium citrate.

Hey, Mark, wanna do a review of salt/C????

a

But Tony, didn't your uncle feel much improved on his ARB? I think it

has something to do with the way our disease manifests whether we get results

or not.

I would love if the salt could do the same thing for me that benicar

does. I'm going to try getting more serious about that now that I've read Mark

London's analysis of the MP as well as the 2 salt protocols that people are

raving about.

But as we've discussed many times, Benicar has been a huge life saver

for me. You know I don't tolerate drugs that don't get results, and the fact

that I still spend $200 a month on Benicar almost 2 years later must tell

you something.

I've also defied the official protocol by increasing my D intake rather than

decreasing it, and I know with certaintly that I feel best IN the sun, not out of it (except when I

have a migraine - a symptom which has decreased 5 fold since starting benicar,

by the way. I see there's a study on that interesting phenomenon, which

Mark cited in his piece).

As you know, I'm also one of the people who absolutely cannot tolerate

minocycline which is the mainstay of the MP. I was so happy to see Mark point
