I've posted to the list in the past that CS kills amoebas, among the many other things that it does dispose of. I just want to pass on my latest amoeba adventure:
I ate an old piece of chicken on a Sunday night, and by Monday thought I had a case of salmonella. I started taking industrial doses of Microdyn (a swig out of a liter bottle every three hours for three days) and within 36 hours had put the "salmonella" at bay. But then it came back. So I upped my dosage and the number of days I took it, and the same thing happened. This went on for 8 weeks, and the only time I felt human was when my CS dose was maxxing. I finally went to a lab, and a doctor, and he said my intestinal tract was clean as a whistle except for amoebas. I don't know the life cycle span for amoebas, but they apparently were hatching eggs (or whatever amoebas do) on a longer cycle than my CS dosing. Or maybe CS just does not entirely kill this particular type of amoebas, just the adults. But it is clear, given the potency of Microdyn, that amoebas are pretty much impervious to CS. For the record.
