Dear Mike,
Thank you very much for your very kind response. I will take it very much
into consideration, and therefore be on the watch for equivalent sympthoms.
My normal diet consists basically of an abundant supply of raw fruts and
vegetables of all kinds. I also include fermented or germinated beans,
lentiles, chick peas, peas and other leguminous seeds, corn, almonds,
walnuts, hazel nuts, cashew nuts, sesame seeds, coconut water and pulp, and
about 3 times a week fresh raw fish, which I can easily get here in
Margarita Island, Venezuela, where we live. I avoid eating gluten (wheat and
barley, except germinated) and dairy products, soy beans (except
germinated), sugar, canned foods. Don´t smoke, never ever use coffee, soft
drinks. In some special ocasions I drink one or two cups of wine with my
family or close friends. I exercise every day (73 y.o.), normally before 6
a.m.
Except for my chronic ehrlichiosis, I never get sick, not even a cold.
Since I am new in the use of CS, I have been very precautious but as my
product gets better I am gradually increasing my daily intake almos every
day. In the meantime I keep learning with the great help that you and others
are giving me.
I value very much the great service you do by helping others improve their
health through this excellent list.
Again, thank you very much.
Carlos

Subject: Re: CS>Intestinal flora damaged by CS?
Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2006 18:12:56 -5
Dear Carlos,
Back in my earlier days of experimenting with CS, I went for a spell of
probably several weeks, taking several mouthfuls per day of fairly
concentrated CS (probably 20ppm or more, large particles, dark amber
colored). I started to feel tired and weak, with achiness in my large
muscle groups. It was starting to be painful to climb stairs, get out
of a chair, or otherwise haul myself around.
Then somebody on the list happened to describe the symptoms of acute
calcium deficiency, which matched what I was experiencing.
I asked Rosie to go to the store and buy me a half-gallon of orange
juice with added calcium citrate. After drinking a few glasses of that
over the course of a day, I was back to normal.
It turns out that our intenstinal flora is crucial to absorption of
calcium, and I had succeeded in disrupting mine.
So it can happen.
CS is indiscriminate in the germs it will kill. However, it works best
in a liquid environment, and least well in a solid medium. Thus it
tends not to disrupt intestinal flora unless you're particularly
aggressive with it.
Repopulating with probiotics or other aids is a prudent measure to
take, as it should greatly speed re-establishment of the healthy colony
of "friendly" bacteria we so depend on.
Be well,
Mike D.
