What are you absorbing

Being at this Biosignature seminar opened up my eyes to something. It is not what you eat that is important but what you absorb. In the class we all had to take a test for stomach acid levels. Stomach acid breaks down your food so that you can absorb it. If you can't absorb your food then all of the good nutrients and any supplements that you are taking are wasted. How do you tell if you have low stomach acid. Well lets just say that everyone in the class failed the test and Charles Poliquin has only seen 2 people in ten years that have passed the test so the odds are pretty good that you would also fail, but some signs are heartburn, burping(fish oil burps), bloating, gas, bad breath, trouble sleeping, low testosterone, and indigestion. If you would like to have your stomach acid levels tested then let me know it is a very easy test to perform.
