Re: phase 0 rotation and betaine hcl program for INDIGESTION/candida
it sounds like you are eating something your body does not like/ is not prepared to digest with all the acid reflux...
before anything you have to isolate and avoid intolerant foods (
Rotation Elimination Diet ).. eat much more vegetables...
if your reflux happens direct after meals you do not want to take any more hcl as you are already being burned and it can burn you more...be very careful
if your reflux doesnt happen till quite a while after meals--30mins-hour then it is likely a lack of stomach acid and your body is responding to indigestion with emergency digestion methods..in this case betaine hcl might be very useful to get you to a functioning place again whereupon you can use bitter herbs to stimulate your bodies own digestion
i would focus on eating small healthy proportioned meals of foods that you are sure you can digest well and lots of veggies..and tasting bitter herbs 10 minutes before mealtime
the heavy meat/oil candida diet can cause much acid...maybe see if you can incorporate some fruit (alone-far in between meals) and see if that doesnt reduce it...(eating fruit with meals will probably make it worse)
theres so much advice in the above posts that i think if you follow it you will figure out what is going wrong...
good luck
you are strong
a loving community is behind you
and if you want healing
you will have it
love
