Re: Side Effects

Thanks for the info; I wiki`ed the malic acid to find more info; I now understand why I digest food so much better with red wine as grapes contain some.
I have read a few of your posts about the importance of our stomach acid and bitters for digestion; I find them very informative.
Is this about right ; when the body produces HCL acid is taken from the cells / this is how the cells get rid of acid and therefor can maintain their alkalinity ?
When people have heartburn / gerd it is because their stomach acid is to alkaline and the surrounding tissue is to acid because of lack of bicarbonates/ alkaline minerals ?
