Ammonia comes from protein in the diet, and there is some evidence that shows people with high levels of ammonia do better when they get their protein from vegetables (beans, lentils) and from dairy products (eggs, milk, yogurt) instead of from meats.

Looks like for some people, shortness of breath could be caused by high lactic acid levels, but the source of THAT looks like a difficult-to-detect, acute liver injury from the virus that disrupts the urea cycle and leads to a back up of ammonia, which is itself a neurotoxin that creates an anaerobic environment which leads to the high lactic ...
The only drug out there that would help is Rivicti. There is also a lower cost version but the sodium in it causes blood pressure problems.

I came across an article about SIBO, in one of the scientific journals which states that, "High levels of ammonia deplete alpha keto glutaric acid, which is needed to detox ammonia out of our central nervous system, which then allows ammonia to build up to toxic levels. High levels of ammonia can overload the liver and kidneys and may produce a ...
From what my GI doctor has told me that the Chromogranin A Level can be high if you take proton pump inhibitors (meds like Prilosec, etc.). Also, liver, kidney, or heart problems can also raise the CgA levels. I have had surgery for 3 NETs in the digestive tract and my CgA levels have been in the 400's but the other tests have been normal and ...
