Healing from stomach pain, bloating, swelling, low stomach acid, diverticulitis
I POST THIS IN THE HOPES THAT IF SOMEONE ELSE IS EXPERIENCING THIS, THAT IT WILL HELP YOU!
I have been suffering from excruciating stomach pain the past few months, prior to that, I had clues something was going on but not sure what. I am not a doctor person, they have never, ever really helped me, so I take my health in to my own hands and do a ton of research! I knew I was experiencing diverticulitis, I could feel "wounds" in 3 different places anytime I ate. So much so, it almost sent me to the ER 3 times. Sever pain in the upper chest and lower back area. I actually thought I had colon cancer. I also had symptoms of itchy feet and hands, especially at night, I learned this is the liver working but it is compromised. Also had what seemed like sever allergies after I ate, just a drippy nose, this is also a sign of low stomach acid.
If I could say 1 thing to EVERYONE, it is to protect your gut lining, morning and night! I was having severe diarrhea the end of December, the whole month of January, every single day! It started to escalate when I drank harataki water. I think this irritated my gut lining even more, without me realizing it. It was horrifying to be some where and have to run to the bathroom. And don't get me started on nuts, rush to the bathroom instantly. What helped immediately when I took it in Jan, was grass fed gelatin!! I took it once and my stomach calmed down and actually had a normal bowel movement! This helps protect and cover the lining of your stomach, as well as the papaya enzymes.
It is something I take regularly NOW & the papaya enzymes without fail! But I still could tell something was missing ... I came across a guy on tiktok that said, gut issues probably stem from low stomach acid. I was told yers prior from a holistic dr that I did have low stomach acid, but took capsules and never did again. I think this is what slowly, but surely got me to all of the pain, diverticulitis, bloating, swelling, severe fatigue that I was experiencing. Your body shuts down bc you have a missing component of stomach acid!! Your whole body is trying help to break down the food leaving you lifeless after you eat!! Then leaves your stomach and whole body bloated + swollen bc food is still in your system, just fermenting! Hence, all the burping, farting.
Dr Clarke BETAINE HCL capsules have been a LIFE CHANGER!
Low stomach acid makes you more susceptible to parasites, weight gain, bloating, bc after years of little to no stomach acid, the parasites. bacteria eat at your gut lining making tiny little holes in it, shooting everything into your system!
Sorry if this sounds like a jumbled mess but I pray whoever needs this will get the same relief I am getting. I now walk 10,000 steps a day, the BETAINE HCL are a Godsend bc I don't get bloated when I eat anymore!! HALLELUJAH!!!!! My calves and ankles don't get swollen either. I am seeing major changes in my body now that I am giving it what it needs. The allergy symptoms have all but disappeared too! I no longer have to blow my nose 20 times a day or all night.
My next step is to clear out the liver of
liver stones ... this is where the low stomach acid stems from. If the liver is overloaded, everything else in the body pays for it. Hopefully, once I start doing these regularly and heal the liver, I can wean myself off the betaine HCL. Until then, I will continue to take them! I am so happy and hope this helps someone out there that's suffering.
