Severe Adrenal Fatigue Remedies

An acquaintance of mine just posted this on another forum and I had to provide the info here. After a few days of the watercure...I seem to be doing much better. Here is his testimony!

What makes anyone do anything for 9 months without results? I guess it's knowing at the core, the protocol contains an obvious TRUTH. How can a high mineral, vitamin and live carbon drink NOT make you better?

My story is unique from what I've seen. For years, I'd been drinking too much water, up to 2 gallons in extreme heat, and had an almost unquenchable thirst to boot. I knew something was seriously wrong. Every time I'd try the protocol, it would make my thirst worse. I knew there was something I didn't understand, yet I didn't know what. I tried several variations of kelp & ingredients, but figured that it was something more fundamental, something not related to the drink.

Over a period of 9 months, I began deprogramming my mind from the lies I'd been fed for years. One of the most fundamental, was the inaccurate perception that you can have too many vitamins & minerals (you can; if it's synthetic). That meant the iodine in kelp, vitamin d & a whole other host of things. It took a serious illness to break down one that stood in my way; 'too much salt'. We've all heard this, it's common health knowledge that you should only have a limited amount of salt each day. I was bound by this through years of programming. Besides, whenever I'd eat salt, it would always taste pleasant, yet bland.

Last week I got very ill through fault of my own. I had just moved out the country and by chance, happened to have some sea salt in my bag. During this time I couldn't eat, and felt very thirsty, yet when I started eating the salt, the thirst subsided quickly. I ate more salt, but my past beliefs kept telling me "don't have too much, it's bad for you". However my body's response told me otherwise. As I got better I thought there maybe something in this. I added large quantities of salt to everything, my drinks, food, I even ate it straight into my mouth. Eventually the salt no longer had it's bland taste, it became too strong to eat. My body was telling me I gotten enough. The thirst problem, which had affected me for around 5 years, had gone... Let me repeat that, without changing anything else apart from the salt in my diet, a health problem that affected me for 5 years of my adult life, disappeared overnight!

I was elated. Then I got even more excited. I recalled the sodium/potassium ratios balance in the body and had a great feeling that reason the drink hadn't been working had something to do with it. The recommended diet (high vegetables), when followed strictly, made me ill. It knocked me out almost to sleep. On the flipside; junk food alleviated this and made me feel much better. I thought it could be because of two things, the drink and diet were too high in potassium and my stomach acids were very low. Junk food was the opposite, it was very high in sodium and easy to digest. I reasoned that if I pushed up my sodium amount, not only would I be able to start eating much better and increase my stomach acids (which is made from the chloride of salt), but the drink would start working and I would get the coveted energy rush everyone talks about.

I knocked up a tablespoon of AN kelp, mixed with lemon juice to eat separately. I added a tablespoon of BSM & 1/2 a lemon, but I didn't have any lime water to hand. I also added as much extra salt whenever I felt a thirst to balance the potassium. When I carefully began to take it over a period of 2 hours I soon noticed a slight tingling in the back of my head. The slight tingling suddenly became a spark. My brain started to clear up, focus increased and I became very aware... In that moment, I realised that 9 months of hard work had finally paid off. The drink started working! I was almost in tears. I knew that at last, I was digesting large quantities of minerals. The real repair work had begun...

At last I can say; "the protocol works". Thank you Moreless, for you have changed my life and all those that contributed to it. Thank you to everyone else on the forum for everything you've written and I've attentively read. The regulars and non-alike. Thank you to Weston A. Price, the author of Nutrition & Physical Degeneration for originally exposing the uncommon truths to me. Thank you for my creator for giving me a brain to allow me to endure the hardships, the intelligence to figure out, giving me the faith to proceed and tenacity to stick to it when all around doubted.

I hope anyone reading this, who's been having trouble will keep researching, spending time figuring it out. There's much that's gone into reaching this point today, the hardest being changing of bad habits and creating new ones. I remember coming to the testimonial forums many times just to keep me going and moving forward. I hope my journey helps you.

Although my journey back to health is far from over, I feel incredibly blessed. I'm in my mid 20s, I'm already very successful for my age and this will allow me to give so much more back to humanity in the years to come.

EC: Hi Faithinhealing,

Can you let us know what forum your friend's testimonial was published? If something has been copied, we need to provide the reference.

Thanks!

Answer about origin of post

*** To EC ***

The text comes from a post from sicknesshope.com i. E.

I know this because I post on that website (and as well as in curezone and many of my posts are on pH balance).

Unlike curezone or earthclinic, people cannot view the post unless registered. Which is a very simple process.

The post and thread relates to the importance of the potassium/sodium ratio.

However there is more. Of importance are the other ingredients of the "Moreless alkalizing drink" i.e. BSM, kelp, ACV, Epsom salt and calcium hydroxide.

I, myself, referred some of my posts in EC to the older AskMoreless forum in curezone.

And lastly, FYI, I was introduced to pH balance with Dr R. Young's books. Later I found Ted's formulas. And later I found the Ask Moreless forum. I can say that I learned a lot from Moreless. His alkalizing drink, which was developed 4-5 years ago, is IMO the best. Moreless knew Dr. Carey Reams, the creator of Reams Biological Theory of Ionization (RBTI). http://www.Newtreatments.org/reams

Anyway, I wanted to let EC know where the original post came from and why I know it.

Thanks again EC for your website.

Alain from Ottawa

To Faithinhealing -- I suggest that the amount of water being consumed may be the real problem as I have had a similar difficulty. Last summer I fainted and was found to have a very low serum sodium level. When I got out of the hospital, a month or two later, I thought I'd cured myself with sea salt and blackstrap molasses for my low hemoglobin that had also been found. This summer both of these blood levels are low again and I went to an endocrinologist to get her insights. Turns out after reducing my liquid intake dramatically for 6 days (one to two quarts total liquid including btw all juices as well) my strength seemed to be returning and in fact the blood level of sodium was up to 131 from 127. This Wednesday the level will be checked again (2 weeks more now on the reduced liquid) - we'll see. Low thyroid or cancer may also be involved based on the SIADH diagnosis - but we'll see. Perhaps just the much too high intake of liquid is the whole issue. Normal intake should be much more in the range of half your weight in ounces of water per day. 180 pounds - then 90 ounces.

Latest 2 week update - After the two additional weeks on the reduced liquid intake, my sodium has risen to the normal zone - 136 and my red blood cells are also normal now. My hemoglobin and my hematocrit have continued to rise and are closer to normal.

I am only suggesting that it may be simply too much water intake leads to excretion of sodium, and correcting to a much reduced fluid intake may allow the sodium levels in the blood to return to normal.

Thanks for your experience on lowering fluid intake. How has your health improved????

Because of water retention I try to drink plenty of water but someone else suggested NOT drinking too much water because it does mess with the sodium/potassium ratios just as you've stated! Another solution is a sea salt bath WITH PEROXIDE which helps the body detoxify... Or the baking soda bath WITH PEROXIDE! For whatever reason they seem to provide more energy and clarity throughout the day... Quite possibly balancing the lower sodium to potassium rations perhaps indicative of Adrenal issues! The recipe is 1-2 cups of Baking Soda or Organic Sea Salt to 1 Quart of Hydrogen Peroxide.... Also taken from the curezone ask Moreless forums!

I, too, had a serious problem with thirst (would wake up every 90 minutes at night to guzzle a quart of water). I had been limiting my salt intake because I was sick in other ways and was trying to "eat healthy."

Randomly, I would eat a burger or a soup and sleep through the night and feel better. Finally, I realized it was the sodium! I increased my salt intake dramatically and that IMMEDIATELY solved my 2 year thirst problem. Hope this helps somebody!

It is characteristic for people with adrenal fatigue that liquids go right straight through them. Taking too much liquids simply washes out your minerals and we all lack them.
