My mother developed edema in both feet and ankles in the last couple of years. I decided to take amino acids myself for general health and also gave my mother two servings a day, around the amount of protein in four eggs. I was surprised and happy to see that this resolved the edema.

Thank you for speaking clearly, hesitating & delivering great info - easy to understand. Hesitation allows time for the listener to think about the info given & develop thoughts as the story continued! Great job!

For three years I have been going to my doctors trying to find out what is wrong with me the swelling started in my ankles now it’s going right up to my thighs and I’m beside myself with worry that I’m just gonna drop dead. So glad I found you a video im taking it to my doctor . I live in Australia and we are supposed to have one of the best health care systems in the world it’s all bull.

I have experience with this and know that doctors know nothing about how to help one improve the problem with edema. They don't seem to know as much as this doctor, or they just don't want to take time to explain. No help from doctors. I think that we are moving into a total self-help situation with our medical questions.
