Salt-Cers

My july has been pretty decent with respect to dieoff... much better than may and june. The fatigue is still there, but not debilitating.

I've been taking 1 ts salt and 4 g vitamin C, three times a day for quite a while. Today I'm moving to 1 ts salt and 3 g vitamin 3, FOUR times a day. I want to experiment with the notion that more frequent doses is more effective. I'm planning on staying at 12 g vitamin C daily.


wow dpd, had no idea you'd gone up to 12 gms/day. good for you... way to go... notice any weird neuro-herx at all?

I'm doing so-so. I can only seem to go up to about 3 - 4 grams/ day and even then I am uncomfortable.

Alot of the time, I feel dehydrated, almost a hung-over feeling, even though I am drinking plenty of water. This feeling can intensify with my dose until it turns into the outright shakes and tremors.

It comes and goes though. Sometimes I can take 4 grams and not get that at all. Its weird. Taking the Resveratrol helps.

I had to take two days totally off the salt/c recently, due to the "herx" or whatever it is getting too bad. But I'm back to around 3 - 4 grams for the last 5 days.

Today, I felt really decent. One of those "salt holidays". Really nice.

But last night I did have a sort of "neuro-herx" where I felt sorta dizzy and trippy. It was weird.

Today I tried using 'Emergen-C Lite' to mix with my salt. Its got a 1000mg of C plus other electrolytes. It tasted delicious. I figured the extra elecrolytes couldn't hurt.

Also, started adding in 3 drops/ day of Cat's Claw (had to work up to even that small a dose - the first time I took it I really herxed)

I notice the Cat's Claw does give me an initial herx and then a feeling of well-being. Its nice.

Still trying to figure out the shakes thing, but mostly I do notice improvements, slowly and surely, so I'm sticking with it.

Maybe next week I'll experiment with a day at a full 7 gram dose (the max for my body weight) and see how I feel.

But maybe I'll be able to get well just using 4 grams / day? Why not? No one knows if the protocol doesn't work just as well on low doses, do they? Its all uncharted territory.

Oh, and I notice when I feel real good, like today, I feel like going back to Dr. G and starting to Zithromax/Artemisinin combo.

Its funny, when I feel strong, I feel like I can handle the abx no prob. Its when I'm "herxing" that I feel unsure about the abx.

Anyway, thanks for asking. Keep on keepin' on and updating us. Great to hear about progress. These sure are interesting times.
