I find this fascinating. I would love to hear what others have to say about something like this. My problem is if I EAT I want to sleep. Of course it's not the Algin for me, because I just started taking it today. So far, so good. For the last several years (even before I knew about the mercury), I knew something was wrong. As soon as I'm done eating, sometimes the last bite, up to 15-20 minutes after, I literally fight to stay awake. I feel like someone's grandpa, after a big Thanksgiving dinner, wanting to go grab a recliner and take a nap. It is a miserable life. If I know there are places to go, or things to get done, I starve myself. I know if I eat, most but not all of the time, I am DONE for the day. When I starve myself I get sick, when I eat, I pass out. It is a hard way to live. People want you to come over and eat dinner...hubby forgets and fixes me something to eat, then wants to continue our day, and it just doesn't work for me. I'm done. Your post reminded me that I've never asked anyone about this, and now I am intrigued. Is there something in that pecan pie, that I normally eat on a regular basis (maybe don't even realize it), and it's doing this to me?? Maybe it's not the Algin, but something in the pie that reacts with a mercury laden system, or something.

By the way, Sittingduck, how much Algin do you and your wife take? Just starting today, I've done the 2 capsules, 3 times a day, like it says. Was wondering if I should be doing more, or different and what others do? Do you also take the doses with the full 2 glasses of juice, or does anyone ever use other liquids? I've heard juice is best, but wondered what everyone else does.
