Hi, all. I'm wondering if baking soda neutralizes the "stress proteins" described by Dr. Belpomme as being overly abundant in EHS sufferers' bodies; that along w/ histamines. I'm in more pain since I took about 1/2 tsp. of baking soda this morning, but in some ways it feels like a cleansing pain. Feels like it's trying to access & neutralize the stress proteins that have built up in my connective tissue, esp. spine, lungs (scarred by mold), & my neck & jaw. I'm wondering if there's any science to back this up (???). If I'm wrong, is there anything that DOES neutralize these stress proteins (& perhaps histamines, too?) Either way, I plan to keep doing it, altho I don't know if I should avoid taking probiotics around the same time as taking the baking soda; I don't want to neutralize stuff. 

Love & blessings,
Elysia

Below is the text of the article where EHS is explained physiologically; sorry the actual link won't work:
