The lemon and lime do not fit that category, and potassium is known to be effective in lowering acidic states of fluids and tissues--completely different from the Ph of the system which remains stable within a very narrow margin.
Sorry, I needed to say, as I usually do, that it works for some of us.
I couldn't find evidence of any meds that require one to avoid potassisum, but would like to know which ones do, because I'd make it a point to avoid it if possible---just for myself.
It is generally known that stress causes strong acidity and anything
that helps avoid that may have beneficial value, in my view.
As for striking your doctors in the face, I wouldn't advise that. You might find yourself in a serious lawsuit. The truth is that many doctors don't really know that much about what their medications are doing to patients who suffer serious side effects. Many will tell you that it often takes 3 or more changes in medications during treatment to reach a satisfory "coctail" to treat mental illness.
And then there's the problem of what to do about the acidic ash of those meds.
I wonder why the psychiatrists don't give us information on that? I think many probably do who are knowledgeable about what helps relieve it.

I'm very curious about all of your info. I'm going to print your response so I can research, espec. the low-sugar citrus thing. My response last night was a little pissy - my mood last night.
I've never heard of "acidic ash," so that's where I'll start. Thanks!
