Symptoms point to lack of vitamin K; vitamin K is needed to maintain healthy blood coagulation, maintain calcium in solution (an imbalance of vitamin D or parathyroid issue could also be possible).

That’s certainly a big factor in candida - candida thrives in alkaline environment so the lack of acid in the stomach will not only compromise digestion but trigger a shift in gut flora because of the shift into alkaline pH. Antifungals do nothing long term because they do nothing to alter the pH of the gut - candida will always come back as long as the pH is favorable (alkaline), which staves off friendly flora growth (require acidic environment). There is a nice relationship between having blood type A and lack of stomach acid. This may manifest into dysbiosis downstream like candida.

Certainly one aspect of mitral valve prolapse is the decreased ability to properly form collagen structure in which copper is critical. This copper deficiency can result in weak valves and result in leaky heart valves, hernias. This is commonly seen in underweight people (tall and thin) typically with skin problems and decreased energy. I fit all these (MVP, hiatal hernia, fatigue, dry skin) and hair analysis does show very low copper. Low energy levels are due to limited absorption of iron due to low levels of copper. Copper is your friend! (I have been supplementing it at low doses ...

I would recommend: 1- Work on getting your digestive track pH back to balance - mineral deficiencies are due to pH imbalances. Lack of stomach acid goes hand in hand with candida/dysbiosis and mineral deficiency. Betaine HCl, Digestive enzymes, Lact-enz (standard process) are very beneficial on incidences with candida and weak digestion. Ionic minerals/chelated minerals can be supplemented until digestion is strengthned. 2- Look into hiatal hernia - so many conditions are actually caused by this condition: heartburn, bloating, dysbiosis/candida, heart fluttering/arrythmia, fatigue et ...

The little levels in iodoral do not compensate for a diet low in potassium. Most potassium supplements offer low doses as it is dangerous to take high dose at one time. Proper ratio of sodium and potassium are needed for normal nervous system activity; low levels of sodium reflect depression and fatigue, while low potassium levels can reflect nervousness, irregular cardiac rhythm, muscle contraction issues. Proper ratio of calcium and magnesium also plays an important role in above conditions. Diet rich in fruits and vegetables will help increase potassium storages. Mike   [End]

According to Dr Flechas, high levels of iodine are concentrated in the stomach lining and is used by the parietal cells to concentrate chloride ions, a component in stomach acid. Niacin is great in aiding digestion if there’s lack of stomach acid. Two likely mechanisms in which niacin is used for stomach acid production - first it releases histamine (causing skin flushing) and histamine is required to trigger stomach acid production. The other mechanism is that niacin is required in energy production inside the mitochondria (niacin is precursor to NADH) - the production of energy as ATP ...

I would change the focus to treat nutritional deficiencies before trying to attack an intruder. You may be overloading you detoxification pathways as you struggle to eliminate any infection you might have but do not have the nutrients required for proper detoxification and immune activity. I can almost guarantee you are critically low in several aminoacids. Many studies (metametrix as an example) show a direct correlation between aminoacid deficiency and fatigue/anxiety. Aminoacid defiency and mal utilization is likely due to improper diet and weakened digestion - specifically protei ...

That usually indicates decreased bile out put from liver/gallbladder. This may contribute to fatty acid deficiency (check for greasy stools). It can also be connected to mineral absorption, specially calcium and iron - these need acidic medium to be properly ionized and absorbed. Sluggish liver/gallbladder may indicate a decreased output of stomach acid, whether by restricted/wrong diet or nutritional deficiencies. Vegans may not produce and liberate a lot of stomach acid due to the smaller amounts and types of proteins they ingest. This may or may not snowball into decreased output of bil ...

I agree that consciously avoiding fluorine is probably good since there are many sources of exposure nowadays. Homeopathy relies on vibrational frequencies of the substance in question to trigger a response in the body, so the effects of actually ingesting a quantifiable amount of it are not typically experienced when dealing with this practice. I believe the website lists the minerals in its elemental form for ease of reference (not everyone is exposed to the various ionic forms of these elements)- however most of them need to be in ionic form to have some biological significance (lik ...

I was expecting this question: As far as fluorine is concerned, I doubt that they account for the ingested amounts of fluorine in processed foods and personal care products. Although I too disagree with the fact that fluorine deficiency is common (more like excess), fluorine does play a biological role in human body - homeopathy takes advantage of it’s properties by using it in small quantities. As far as chlorine is concerned - the discussion is about the ionic form of the chlorine element - chloride. Sources include table salt. Chlorine is harmful to organisms in it elemental for ...

I believe colloidal silver is targeted for single celled organisms and is mostly efficient against anaerobic bacteria. You may want to look into using a few drops of wild oregano oil with a carrier oil like coconut oil to massage the scalp and see if it helps. Mike   [End]

The alkaline/acid principle is rooted on proper diet and digestion. Stomach acid and digestive enzymes are required to liberate the nutrients that are required to maintain proper pH levels in all tissues/fluids. Minerals which help with this process are alot more easily absorbed if they are in ionic form - stomach acid ionizes minerals from the food you eat, subsequently allowing for their absorption. If you lack stomach acid and have further impaired digestion downstream, you are not obtaining the nutrients required for a balanced healthy state. Smart & temporary supplementation along wit ...

Glandulars can be useful but you need to make sure your digestion is up to speed. Protein, fat metabolism are specially compromised when adrenals are under stress; your whole digestion is affected though because your parasympathetic nervous portion is weakened and the fight or flight response will shut down digestive track secretions. Sugar regulation is also affected (first hypoglycemia, then diabetes) since there is a lack of nutrients that helps regulate blood sugar (along with decrease in pancreatic function). Useful test would be 24hour saliva test for cortisol, dhea fluctuations. ...
