Reply to "Alkaline system vs acid stopping pouch infection"

Thank you Jan and CTBarrister for your response.

I'm aware and attempt to constantly learn more of the currently understood science of bacteria in the digestive tract and it's impact on a jpouch. I have always thought a more acid system was healthier than alkaline. Science is saying this is not the case. My sense is that it is more than just sugar reduction that is keeping me 'straight'.

I'm a big a skeptic when it comes to changing treatment or altering daily steps to prevention of inflammation (what we call infection) because everything I've attempted though the years has been ineffective and often expensive.

I'm aware when my system starts to shift towards needing antibiotics. I have felt that a number of times during this 7 month period. Usually once it starts it's not long before antibiotics are required. But each time it has corrected just by continuing the lemon juice and my probiotics.

I will keep posting as to my condition as months progress.

As always I am grateful for your input.
