RE: Re: Acidosis/Betaine HCL

[Guest guest]

There's been a lot posted here recently about " abnormal pH " . I thought that

some background information on blood pH might be helpful.

This is an outline form of a lecture given at the Sydney, Australia, Medical

School. Shouldn't be too hard to follow.

For those who want the very short version, many infections cause an acidosis

or low pH by triggering the formation of lactic acid. So does heavy

exercise, and so does CFS, probably due to reduced exercise capacity.

A good short term treatment is 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in water. Don't

do this more than about twice a day.
