Guest guest Posted June 25, 2002 Report Share Posted June 25, 2002 Hello everyone, If I have asked this question on this list before, I apologize... I am seeking high and low and everywhere to an answer for this problem. I do not produce stomach acid. I currently supplement with Thorne's HCL with every meal, but what I really would like is for my own acid production to kick in. I have been this way (diagnosed) for years, and who knows how long all in all... I believe the most reasonable explanation I have heard to date is that my body became so acidic, that I stopped producing stomach acid because my body was getting the message " enough acid already! " . Does this mean that if I could get my body into an alkaline state, my stomach acid production would also normalize - or not? If anyone has any personal experiences with this, especially if it was a long standing state of being for you, I would really appreciate hearing your input on this. My N.D. tells me that about 50% of people start producing the acid on their own after supplementing with HCL, but this has not happened for me. Also, will it be readily apparent to me when I start producing my own acid? It may seem like a stupid question... but I don't know how I'd know, and when I would need to stop the HCL supplementation. Or would I need to re-test?
