Hi Elle,
I believe that you are suffering from a rapid pathogen kill by the CS which
removal from the body requires time & patience--(herxheimer effect)--Many
suggest that at that time, you reduce your CS intake by 1/2 till unpleasant
symptoms disappear, then gradually increase your daily CS intake.
For the Candida, some sufferers have suggested CS as a vaginal douche 2 or 3
times a day in addition to the oral intake.
Best regards,

Subject: Re: CS>CS and Intestinal Bloat
I haven't. I take CS partly for intestinal candida as well, but I don't
think I have the bacterial infection you have.
In fact when I've eaten too much of something that sets off intestinal
upset, I'll sip between 6oz to 12 oz or so of CS, sometimes in gatorade.
Even when I've had as much as a quart of CS I've never had any adverse
reaction of any kind. Maybe I'm just lucky.

Hello List,
I'm new here, as you know. The reason I wanted to try CS in the first
place
was to address what I believe to be a bacterial infection in my gut. I
have
tried taking large amounts of various probiotics but it hasn't addressed
the
problem. I once had a stool analysis which found staph aureus. Also, I
may
or may not have candida.
I brewed my first batch of CS on Saturday and started taking about 2
Tbsp.
twice a day (total of 1/4 cup). I believe the brewed solution is
approx. 24
ppm. I find that around two to three hours after ingestionr I get gut
aches
and my lower abdomen bloats. Although uncomfortable, it's not
impossible to
bear. I'm wondering if this might be a sign that the CS is working to
kill
off pathogens. Has anyone else had this side-effect from taking CS?
thanks in adavance.
