Re: Zeolite drops-Has Anybody Heard About This?

Thanks, Foghat. I have some personal experience of bad effects from certain parts of the body becoming too alkaline. I followed Andy's advice of taking small amounts of baking soda last summer to alkalize the urine. The net effect of this after a few days was the formation of kidney stones. I suspect they were calcium phosphate stones. One contributing factor was probably that I was taking small amounts of vitamin D.

I had a kidney stone that got blocked years ago, and it is unbelievably painful. I had been free of them for many years since. So it was a scary experience, but I got over it in a little over a week. I of course stopped taking baking soda, but still didn't grasp the big picture.

A little over a month ago, I woke up with soreness in my kidneys. I managed to get up and drink some water and then I felt a little better. The night before I had eaten a dozen tangerines for dinner. But the big picture was that I was taking Oxypowder regularly, plus still taking a vitamin D pill once a day. My urine was becoming too alkaline, and that led to the formation of stones, and then a mild kidney infection which I still have. I don't know if these were struvite stones or calcium phosphate stones. I could actually feel one of them move through my kidney.

Anyway, I haven't been able to chelate in about a month, and it may be another couple of weeks or more before I do so. I'm learning about the kidneys and how to care for them. I will be ordering some Renafood, which I had never heard of until I spent some time researching this, and have been experimenting with different herbs.

I'm not trying to build a counter-argument that alkalinity itself is dangerous, only that it can be, and the alkalize or die hype blinds people to the damage that certain substances can cause partly due to their alkaline nature.

The body is a lot more complex than eating certain types of fruits or whatever because they are more alkaline.
