lol I am part of the club....
AFTER? Just after?
i feel bad 4 hours after only...
It also seem that it is necesary to take the right amount of enzyme and balance with Bhcl.
if your stomach acid is at a normal, healthy level, b hcl will make your stomach burn and feel uncomfortable not long AFTER ONLY 1 OR 2 CAPS. I've been taking 10 and not feeling anything. a lot are reporting the same but I also see people saying that it gives them digestive issues off the bat. from your symptoms, I'd say you're probably hypochlorhydric as well canari. if there are people here that have stomach burning after only a couple caps, i'm guessing that you are not lumped in having the same problems as many of us here and might have a different issue altogether. who knows. but this is definitely what gbolds current protocol is getting at- our bodies aren't taking in anything and we're severely out of whack, for many reasons, one of them being that our digestive health is in a very bad state, another because of our habits, fin, etc etc. enzymes are also very much rec'd by people in the know about stomach acid issues, along with a few other helpful tips that i haven't seen being rec'd much.
a shot of ACV before meals helps with digestion a lot. seen mattyb talk a lot of ACV.
I thought I got my out of whack digestive issues under control months ago, turns out it's still not corrected, just improved. and I hope to continue improving it.
i'm sure this is why the immediate digestive/energy issues resolve after long periods of fasting. fasting helps with many things, but the healing of your digestive system will be one of the heavy hitters we will notice quickly. of course, digestive health coming back online will balance a lot of other things, just like has been suggested.
I'm certain this is why I've been having much more prolonged energy throughout my days these last few months. if your cfs symptoms don't improve with this protocol and everything else we should be doing to support digestive health, ie small meals, chew thoroughly, don't do anything that'll damage stomach, then you may have a different issue(s) causing the chronic fatigue, no matter what illness you have. (directing this at everyone.)
there are of course a lot of factors here, but this is one of the big ones that I've personally seen a lot of progress from that's why I'm making a big deal out of this. gbold, I know you've said most of this before, but it's important to put it many different ways, as it may be hard for some to fully understand, I know it is for me sometimes.
