You should do the alkaline stuff on an empty stomach. My dad took Malox all the

time and his spinal bones weakened until he was bedfast. You need acid to absorb

some vitamins and minerals. Betaine HCl pills are recommended for older people

having trouble digesting their food. (athan ) and he's about as good

on alternative as they get.

I'm not particularly educated on adrenals but it makes sense bc The

Acidic Danger by Wolfgang Auer ( Acidic Danger book link

& lt;http://www.swansonvitamins.com/ProductDisplay/catalogId/10051/productId\

/17150/R/12861 & amp;saleCatalogId=10051 & gt; )

states incorrect pH as the cause of all disease.

Btw that book is short (less than 100 pages) and good. It's main

recommendation seems to be to add alkaline powder to your diet. Right

now I am taking sodium bicarbonate pills plus alkaline powder (from

Swanson Vitamins online) daily.

& gt; Jess - did you know that acidosis can be related to adrenal & amp;

endocrine

& gt; insufficiency? I think you talked about kidneys ... but I didn't

& gt; realize how adrenals have a part in this too.

I think it best to even take a day or two off per week. For example if you are

taking large doses of C you may run short of B as it doesnt make it through the

environment. I dont recall which one of the B, should be on the web hopefully.

Wish I had a program that would retrieve things, a data base that worked.

Hi Steve:

What do you use to measure your DHEA levels?

Blood work, DHEAe blood work to be more specific. I often order blood

work from the Life Extension Foundation (LEF, www.lef.org). The labs

used are always the same labs used when my doctors order blood work.

The LEF has an annual sale on blood work that just ended. There is a

male suite of blood test that includes DHEAe, T, Free T, Estrdiol, PSA,

CRP, Homocysteine, Cholesterol, Trigs, CBC, CMP, Uric acid, and a few

others that costs for members 299 but during the sale is 199 USD. If

your doctor order them and you didn't have insurance, you would be

looking at well over $1000.

Even without the sale, one can order tests individually at a discount.

I usually get the CBC/CMP/Uric/Cholesterol/Trigs lab work every few

months and cost is $35 or so. When I didn't have insurances and still

often when I do, I order this simple test and bring it into my general

doctor or cardiologist which eliminates most needs for a follow up

visit. When I didn't have insurance, it was much much much MUCH cheaper

to order labs myself rather than use a doctor's order. LEF has already

negotiated discounted pricing and there are other web sites where one

can order many other tests also at discounted pricing, some deals are

even a lot better than LEF's prices.
