Hi @MeSci what diet did you go onto to improve your acidosis? Thanks

Also wondering if anyone has had any success with improving symptoms by reducing supposed acidosis?

Very interesting theory.

Best wishes

I think the best thing I can do is recommend this thread, where there is lots of discussion on leaky-gut diets and supplements, and I detail my own regime and results, as do others. The treatments for leaky gut are essentially the same as for presumed acidosis.

@MeSci Many thanks!

I find your bicarbonate soda experiment quite interesting. I will take a teaspoon in water today and monitor my symptoms.

Best wishes
