Thought for the Day: Hyperammonemia and Environmental Illness...

Does anyone see these as being familiar symptoms? To me, they seem like some common symptoms in CFS or exposures????

The symptoms and blood ammonia values of mild to moderate chronic hyperammemia (CH) are similar to those observed during physical exhaustion with ‘exercise-induced hyperammonemia’ (EIH). These include confusion, hyperventilation, and muscular dysfunction.....Treatments for lowering CH and EIH are similar, and include: 1) restriction of dietary
protein, 2) increasing carbohydrate (%) intake, 3) administration of amino acids (AA’s)that enhance ammonia clearance into (the less toxic) urea, and 4) correction of the underlying metabolic etiology
