      Um, that stuff about fixing the pH balance of your stomach is pure baloney. In all of my research and personal experience with DXM I have never heard of such a thing. I've also personally never seen anyone vomit after taking DXM (although I've read that it does have a tendency to happen sometimes), so it was probably all that orange juice that made you and your friends puke so much . Who told you that anyway?

      I would also like to add that I agree with your stance on DXM not being conducive to lucid dreaming. That sounds even more ridiculous to me .

      I'm not a chemistry major but it has to do with the base/acid content of your stomach . . . dxm is a base which means it is alkaline, your stomach is an acidic environment. Acids and bases cancel each other out and you get a ph balance close to that of water, neither a base nor an acid. (like when trying to add chlorine to a pool. . . it doesn't take much to throw the whole thing out of whack) If you disturb the acidity of your stomach too much . . . well. . . it gets pissed and you vomit. That is why people throw up when they take dxm and that is why you should drink orange juice. Orange juice is acidic. . . and it restores the natural ph balance of your stomach.
