Re: Fairly positive results cangrats!!! (Question)

Hi

Mpdela posted this recently from the U.S. National Institute of Health TMAU treatment guidelines:

which says that:

6. Using soaps with a moderate pH, between 5.5 and 6.5. Trimethylamine is a strong base (pH 9.8), thus soaps with pH closer to that of normal skin help retain the secreted trimethylamine in a less volatile form that can be removed by washing. Here's some info on LACTULOSE. I got this info from


http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/medmaster/a682338.html.

Note how most tend to raise the pH of the skin, and if you have TMAU, the goal is to lower it to a healthy skin pH of 5.5 - 6.5. The normal skin pH is 5.5-6.5, which is a little acidic, and trimethylamine is very alkalosis. So, it stands to reason that the goal is to get the alkalosis down to the normal skin pH by using soaps that are closer to the normal skin pH – and to use them regularly, especially after perspiring. Here is a good website that has info on skin cleansers.


http://www.skintherapyletter.com/2003/8.3/1.html.

A chart in this website indicates that soaps, superfatted soap and beauty bars, dermatologic bars/cakes, and antiseptic and antibacterial washes tend to raise the pH of the skin. It states that cosmetic liquid cleansers generally have a pH similar to skin. It’s best to call the various cosmetic companies like Olay, Loreal, Neutrogena, etc., and ask them what the pH is on their cleansers.



I’ve been using the following but I think any PH balanced products would work the same:

Johnsons Baby Shampoo
Coconut conditioner – supermarket brand

Dove soap and Johnsons body wash

Thai Rock Crystal deodorant stone with Dove roll-on deodorant – sprays seem to exacerbate odour

Non-biological washing powder


Hope that's helpful.
