Angry Re: Digestion

Thanks again "Whitecrow",
A couple weeks ago I observed sweling all over my body, and was diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome or Oedema. After a battery of test and examinarion in the local hospital, (and a huge medical bill) I was informed that my kidneys was outputting too much protein about (880gms I think). I had a renal biopsy done and is awaiting the result. I was always very healthy, working out regularly, I juiced and drank fresh fruit and vegetables, and ate fairly healthy foods. I however consumed a tremendous amount of whey protein supplement and concentrated amino acid. The swelling is now concentrated to my lower body, from my waist down to my toes. I am on a low sodium/low protein diet, with a dieuretic and medication for high blood pressure (which I never suffered from previously). I really do not like taking drugs, and it is now making me feel very sick. Even when the swelling started, I never felt sick, now it is different.
Since you seem to have a great handle on "health via Digestion". Can you advise me on a non-drug direction that I may follow'
Thanks again for your timely post..
with peace profund
John
