Advice needed on products for organ regulation

Posted By Charlotte (Simpsonville, Sc) on 04/27/2011

I have been very sick for 6 years with water retention, mental confusion, uncontrolled blood sugar, the list goes on and on, but I did find out several years ago that my adrenal glands produce too much aldosterone. I have never been prescribed potassium, but potassium sparing diuretic drugs instead which cause intolerable side effects. I have found that drinking orange juice with each meal has helped dramatically to regulate my blood sugar. Getting adequate levels of potassium each day is paramount to my health despite attempts of today's medical professionals (17) trying to help. If the body needs potassium give it potassium not ACE inhibitors, etc.

My pancreas produces large amounts of insulin so for those who do not produce insulin I would be careful with the orange juice. The orange juice has worked incredible for my digestion. I need a source for potassium bicarbonate preferably pharmaceutical grade. I purchased some from a compounding pharmacy in my area but would like to purchase online for myself if possible. Any suggestions?

This is a terrific site. Thanks for everyone who shares their results. I am currently doing castor oil packs on my kidneys and abdomen to see if I can get these adrenal/kidney and pancreas regulated. I will share back if I can get my potassium to regulate without the use of potassium bicarb, this would suggest that the castor oil packs have done their job. Does anyone have a source for pharmaceutical grade potassium bicarb or having good results with the source they are currently using? Thanks.

HI U CHARLOTTE, I do potassium bicarbonate with my morning lemon juice, ACV, and Iodine, inlieu of baking soda. Most of us don't need anymore sodium. I get my pharmacy grade potassium bicarbonate from the internet at any number of wine supply sites. The wine makers use it to adjust the pH of their wine. It will alkalize you also. =====RH========

Hello Charlotte from Simpsonville,

Hope you are aware that monosodium glutamate and aspartame are both known to cause excessive insulin production. If not, you need to research excitotoxins and also look for names processed food manufacturers hide monosodium glutamate (MSG) under and start avoiding products containing one or both of the above.
