Stomach disaster!
I have been having horrible reflux issues recently and I don't know what to do about them any more. It started on and off a few months ago and now it's every day. I don't get a stomach ache at all, just chest pain, a headache, a few palpitations, and a feeling that something is very wrong... The only

Having Private Blood Tests Done. Asking for Peer Review.
I am going to have some private blood tests done. Not worth discussing what is needed with a physician who has no idea what is needed. Note: I did figure out that when a physician says they are going to order some blood work that what they are really doing is checking off boxes that show up on the

Root cause of autoimmune B12 def
Hello- I was just diagnosed with PA and was prescribed injections (cyanocobalamin unfortunately). This was from a hematology referral for low white blood cells. That turned out to be ok, but the doc noticed my B12 was "low" at 310. I was already supplementing B12 so she just said keep doing that.

Gastrin & Betaine hcl
Hi everyone, this may be wishful thinking but is it possible Betaine hcl switches off the Gastrin production ?

Taking betaine hcl long-term?
Hi, everyone, Do you think that it is safe or OK in general to take betaine hcl long-term, I mean for more than a few months? I've been taking one capsule (650 mg) with every meal for 3 months now and my constipation has literally resolved, so I'd like to keep taking it long-term.

so many supplements, so much money - any advice for lowering the cost?
hi everyone, I’ve just added up how much I’m spending on ndt and supplements and it’s an awful lot of money. I wondered if anyone had advice on cheaper options or those they think are unnecessary. I’ve got hashimotos and have also been diagnosed with ME/ CFS - these are a mixture of things recommended

Remedies for low stomach acid
Hello.This is a follow up on a previous question. I did the baking soda test this morning to see if I had low stomach acid. I didn't belch at all so I guess that could suggest that I'm low !! I thought I would try some Betaine HCI with pepsin as that is quite often recommended. I asked my naturopath

Digestive enzyme supplement suggestions
Can anyone recommend a good effective brand. All suggestions welcome. In the past I've used the Solgar Brand but I haven't noticed much difference. Likewise not much difference using Betaine HCI on its own either.

Paper on the design of B12 deficiency treatment protocols
This might be one of the most fascinating papers I've read on B12 deficiency and treatment, with several sections exploring how symptoms relate back to the particular biochemistry processes that go wrong in deficiency. The paper was produced in 2021 for the B12 Institute, Netherlands, a specialist B12

iron test results help please
I must admit that even after a few years, while I mostly understand my thyroid test results, my iron tests continue to confuse me - I just can’t seem to get my head around the significance of the different parts. So I wondered if someone who actually understands could please explain in really simple

Betaine HCl gave me more energy, but crazy IBS
I have made huge improvement on my thyroid and vitamin levels and still feeling fatigued all the time. Because I have acid reflux only at night, and so many of my vitamin levels are low despite a balanced diet, I figured I may have low stomach acid and would try Betaine. I also had noticed that my reflux
