For chronic conditions that won't respond to anything you've tried, you must aggressively work on detoxifying acids from your body.

"Whey protein powder can be easily added to a smoothie. What to do: Mix one scoop of protein powder (typically 20 g of protein) with 8 ounces of water, milk or juice and ice in a blender. Add frozen blueberries or other fruit, if desired. If you are allergic to whey protein, consider soy powder—the protein in soy powder is more easily utilized than that in other soy foods.

During the digestion process, our bodies chain together various amino acids to make proteins. About 75% of our body tissue is protein. A deficiency of amino acid building materials leads to immune deficiencies and other disease problems." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.) "The resultant curds are spray dried at high temperatures to produce a high protein powder. A final indignity to the original soybean is high-temperature, high-pressure extrusion processing of soy protein isolate to produce textured vegetable protein (tvp). ... Nitrites, which are potent carcinogens, are formed during spray drying, and a toxin called lysinoalanine is formed during alkaline processing. Numerous artificial flavorings, particularly msg, are added to soy protein isolate and textured vegetable protein products to mask their strong "beany" taste, and impart the flavor of meat." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"Adding them to the protein powder after a workout is the best way to use them, because they will help move the amino acids from the protein powder into the cells more quickly to be used for growth and repair. This is the one time you want to increase insulin. For best digestion, I usually recommend that people rotate their protein powders.
