I have been taking digestive enzymes (with HCL) and colloidal silver now for almost 3 days. Some very significant things have changed but it's hard to say exactly why or what mechanism. i did not suffer from any digestive pain or weirdness before (maybe bloating sometimes). I didn't have constipation, though felt like i should have more bowel movements than i did. I started taking both because of a persistent cough and because i began to develop rosacea symptoms and my face just felt itchy and inflamed all of a sudden (HCL is a common rosacea treatment). My skin was going downhill very fast once the cough started. i suspected perhaps low stomach acid and bacterial infection. Low stomach acid could be encouraging bacteria to thrive.
strange things i've noticed:
1. the inflammation in my skin went away after half a day....no more flushing or uncomfortable feeling/itchiness.
2. feeling of being serene and neither hyper nor hypo consistently the whole day
3. i can go longer between meals
4. sometimes i do almost feel like i'm in a meditative state....it's not brain fog nor is it fatigue - just the ability to be in deep stillness. this is a consistent quality i can tap into. my energy feels very clean and sustained like i'm Bulletproof (TM).
5. my voice is deeper
6. i don't crave cigarettes anymore really....ok, i do....but much less....and i crave them differently....there's not a mild anxiety feeling attached to the idea of smoking now.....it's like it's more casual now. like something from the cigarettes i no longer need....but something else in them that i do.
7. much less anxiety
8. can focus on difficult tasks for long periods of time (like 10hrs. today)
9. better sleep
all of these things have been very noticeable and most certainly relevant to the supplements. i was "hoping" it was a low stomach acid issue, but i'm not sure that's the case....as i do feel a very slight burning sensation at 300mg of HCL....and the low stomach acid tests say you don't have low stomach acid if you feel burning at 1GRAM of HCL. However, there are other ingredients: Pancreatin 5x (amylase, protease, lipase), Pepsin, Diastase, Papain, Ox Bile.
Has anyone else here taken digestive enzymes with HCL before? Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas as to how these enzymes could have such a profound effect? Makes me wonder if my pancreas was struggling (i already take Taurine, which stimulates bile secretion). I doubt the colloidal silver is responsible for even 1/4 of the changes. especially because i feel some of the effects following the enzymes specifically. I was taking the colloidal silver as an antibiotic, but turns out the enzymes are a kind of antibiotic as well.
...it's confusing to me how some people recommend probiotics and some people recommend digestive enzymes - both to increase immune function.
