Guest guest Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Hello, On page 97 of Amalgam Illness, Andy states that if you feel bad after taking glutamine it may be because of intestinal bacteria/yeast making too much ammonia. I about fell out of my chair when I read this (somehow missed it on my first pass through the book) as I *knew* there was some connection between my foggy/slow motion attacks and the glutamine supplement I was taking after reviewing months of journal entries. I was hoping someone (does Andy check these boards?) could expand on this or point to a research paper I could refer to. I would like to better understand the details of this process and have something to show to one of my doctors (sadly, I don't think he would take AI seriously as a source...so frustrating!). Also, it mentions glutamine is not helpful for hypoadrenal people unless they take cortisol, and again I am looking for more information/papers on this if anyone has any. I don't mean to harp on something that may not be of much interest to most of you but this is a big key for me as far as explaining some very disturbing symptoms and I am hungry to understand more. If no one has any information I understand as this is a bit of a specific request. I will keep googling in the meantime to see if I can find anything. Thanks!
