Re: Starting over - have a question

[Guest guest]

-HI Terri,, What are your bowel problems like?? I am asking

because I beleive some of my digestion problems are lead

related.. I am no where near better but with the right

supplements I am able to eat again..

I found that on the very first DMSA round I noticed a change

in my digestion.. I had done the ALA first but it was not

until the DMSA that I noticed a dramatic improvement with my

mood and being able to eat flesh proteins again //

I am not familiar with DMPS>?

I am thinking that the DMSA probably triggered the -reaction. I have

had chronic bowel problems since having my gallbladder removed several

years ago - probably due to mecury poisoning. I was managing the

digestive system very well with diet and supplements until I started

chelating. I think that my liver is at issue here - what little stool

I have is pale, pale - almost more white than yellow - and my belly is

bloated and distended. I have been reading Andy's recommendations for

the liver but there is so much information that it is hard to take in.

Did I mention that I am sluggish - mentally and physically - and

depressed as well?

Pale stools indicates poor bile flow. What is usually recommended is

taurine, glycine, milk thistle extract and phosphatidylcholine 4 times

a day (to increase bile flow), Ox bile with meals (to give bile which

will increase bile flow).

Yes all of the below are recommended. Terri this was a

problem I had for over 30 years.. I still have pale stools--

low bile flow/production/ and I think it did get worse my last

chelation of 50ALA/50DMSA.

I found/find great relief from lecithin , now just experimenting

with in its place phosphtidylcholine and inositol . I mean great

relief.. ONe meal without it and I can in a crisis for a

week.Does anyone understand the parrallels between lecithin

and these others.. What are the proportions??

I am today starting to experimnet with higher doses of the

amino acids.. Starting with glutamine, glycine, taurine !! --what

a coincidence..

Milk thistle is good too but I took that for many ,many

years and it was not until the lecithin I got releif..

I shall keep you posted on these amino supplements affect on the

bile production..
