So is this reference to HCL actually hydrogen chloride?!?!?

It's the weirdest thing, and I don't even remember how it first dawned on me that HCL was clearing up the 'want to cry' feeling that came out of nowhere. I then start taking it regularly with meals and after "so many" days, I end up with acid symptoms elsewhere (like sciatica, for one) and have to stop the HCL and use a bit of bicarb for a couple of days. Before long, the whole merry-go-round starts all over again. Thank you for putting this here, Melly, it keeps me from going over the edge with the feeling that my body is the weirdest one ever born! Sharon Another possibility is low in HCL. As we age, we can be pretty low in HCL. The symptoms of this one, makes you think you will die soon from heart attack, depression with no explanation - just like as if your whole mind and body is so very sad you want to cry, can't get up in the morning, jittery, cold, can't breathe, headaches, etc. I underwent all this and went to MD and he gave me antacid which made it really far worse. I mentioned it casually to my chiro, and he handed me Nutri-west product called Hydra-D. In half an hour i was renewed and fully recovered. He advised me not to take high doses of HCL otherwise body will get "lazy" in producing it. Hope he fully recovers. Melly
