Supplements & Stomach Acid

[Guest guest]

I've started to have burning pain in the 'pit' of my stomach after

taking supplements & am concerned there is too much acid from them.

It's a burning feeling & results in bloating and, well, lots of

belching! It's also started to nauseate me & feels worse if I eat,

and that's how I've concluded it's acid & stomach related.

I use ascorbic acid for Vitamin C (with bioflavanoids) and wonder if

that's the problem, or if most of the supplements are quite acidic and

contribute, such as aminos (lysine, arginine, glutamine & taurine).

Right now, I'm afraid to start another round, considering the

chelators are 'acids'.

If anyone has experience or recommendations on this, please advise!

I'm also seeing my doc for a regularly scheduled appointment & will

report back on what she says. For now, I'm eating very little

(alkaline foods) and avoiding most supplements to see if it improves.
