Yes! If in a very stressed state. Arguably, this is because you need to start clearing the FFAs, AAs, ketones, etc., or provide glucose in the first place. Sufficient micronutrients for the macros to be used are needed.
I’ve found there tend to be two types - those who waste organic acids in urine and those who circulate/ store.
Thank you for sharing this! Very valuable. I am also on the lowering oxalate journey and have wondered about Ray’s views on the gelatin to oxalate thing as well as the intense dumping from supplemental Bs (my problem is biotin, massive dumping with very small doses). Would love to learn more!
Have you trialed the Bs individually to see which one is causing you to “dump”? I would also consider it’s not oxalate - I understand some groups are saying it is with specific Bs, but the crystals can be other things too.
With all supplements I suggest starting low, building slow, and drop dosing. If one has a negative response I take that as either the dose was too high, they need a cofactor, the fillers are an issue, or they don’t need that form, etc. currently.
I had an OAT test that confirmed my suspicions with oxalates, also showed some B vitamin deficiencies and sulphur issues.
I am taking it super slow bc I am still nursing my son. I started small with the B’s but still needed to back off for now and will try again when he is weaned.
Thank you for that, I didn’t even think of the fillers. I will take that into consideration!!
This was a great read! Thank you for sharing Kathleen! I am grateful to the Strong sisters from showcasing your amazing life story. And now to find that you are writing and sharing content! Very exciting!
Incredible collection of emails between you and Dr Peat!! Thank you so much for generously sharing. I have just discovered you…but your line of questioning inspires me.
Interesting to see him recommending a one to ten ratio of protein to carbs!
