To this day...
I have trouble looking an egg in the eye.....they were pretty much my "go-to" food during treatment. Glad to hear he's still holding up, he must be pretty close or past the half way mark.

High PH waterahollie said:what is that?
never heard of that..what is it and where can i get it..ill try anything! thanks!
You can find it in some grocery stores but certainly more often health type food stores. Essentia seems to be a brand with national reach. Just head over to bottled water and hunt around for a few that are clearly labeled as high PH. I even saw some at CVS so it is around. Good luck

Ahollie,
While I commend him on eating, he can switch to a protein drink diet if necessary.
I drank lots of “regular” tap water (filtered sometimes) during treatments and continuing today. It was a habit picked-up by reading Skiffin (H&N Guru)prior to starting treatments.
Hang in there!
