i already wrote u 2 messages long time ago, but anyhow

i have the same problem. i have been a raw foodist for over 1 year, and now cant digest anything. food comes out as it went in. i researched and tried alot. i came to conclusion that it must have something to do with a lack of special minerals and especially salt! salt is natrium chloride, which the body requires to make stomach acid (hcl).

how long is it now since you have given up your raw food diet? and your digestion didnt get any better?

it is now 1 year since i gave up my raw food diet and my digestion is the same as when i was raw. i read on tom billings website that he had the same problem, and that this problem resolved after 2 years on itself. but 2 years is a long time for me, i mean so i have 1 more to go but thats horrible.

i found one combination that seems to bring back my stomach acid, and that is salty food in combination with raisins. when i eat this, my stomach produces stomach acid again, and i get horrible burning diarrhea. i seem i get diarrhea because my body hasnt got the right minerals to produce bile, which neutralizes the acid, so i get diarrhea. the problem now is that i cant eat raisins anymore, lost appetite for it ^^.

i am now considering taking betaine hcl ... ordered some today and i´ll see how it goes. Tweet
