<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi One and all, I have realised that one one the major problems due to malabsorption is the loss of key Electrolytes, minerals and salts. This leads to salt and PH balance problems. This causes low blood volume, low energy, fatigue, etc, etc. The whole system gets out of balance! One can improve upon this by eating alkaline forming foods and drinks, taking sodium bicarbonate tablets and most importantly SEA SALT. Cheers, Anand D. Singh.
