However, normally my excess lactic acid in my muscles is caused by mitochondrial dysfunction -- my cells don't produce enough oxygen. Semething that helps for that, quite a lot is creatine (yes, the amino acid that body builders take for their muscles). I would think that would help even if the accummulation is caused by die-off. (It's tricky to find creatine without additives, but I've found a brand I like a lot, made by Axis Labs (creatine ethyl ester), in capsule form (I personally dislike taking it as a powder). n-- Now available.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Does any one understand the chemistry of why die off would produce thefeeling/achiness associated with accumulation of lactic acidin the legs? My guess would be toxins released by the bacteria as they die. Peace =)Alyssa 15 yoUC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Chinese Herbs (not legal but helping!)

But why? Etc. Mara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
