Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Posted February 17, 2006 If you haven't had dairy in a year, reduce the amout and take it more slowly so your gut has a chance to adjust. Just one approach... sometimes this eager beaver gets a belly ache, too. Time for some bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) to calm things down.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2006 Report Posted February 18, 2006 Hi Katrina, Yikes, I'm in trouble, now...2 new Katrinas on the list! (I'll get to Immunopro in a minute). The other one signs her name " Kat " . I had not read your posts before and guess what unnerved me? I am Katrina from California also! Eerie, eh? I thought someone was impersonating me lol. Cause I've been the only " Katrina " here for years. (Til the monstor storm, of course). Let's back channel and compare notes, OK? About the Immunopro...I began it several years ago. I did herx (flu-ish), and can't remember what else. But bloating might be one. I had to stay soooo low for a looong time. I began at 1/8 teaspoon for some time,then waaay slowly, ramped up til I finally got to 2 scoops...remained there ever since. It seems I recall there are a few acceptable things you can do...so, I would suggest calling WellWisdom...they're very friendly...and run this past them. IP is very fragile, so you have to be sure it won't get disturbed by what you do. So, back channel me, OK? Katrina Katrina Katrina Look out, the Katrinas are coming! (Saw a couple on another list too) How many more of you are there ??? > > Hi all-- > > I started taking ImmunePro three days ago and will be up to full dose > tomorrow.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 , Thanks for this clarification. I'll check out the Renewpro. I didn't for a minute think you were hawking the product :-) Ballady > > > Katrina, > > > > > > Did you mean to say Renewpro ... or not? > > > > > > B. > > > > ***RenewPro and ImmunePro are essentially the same product and made by the same company called Well Wisdom in San Diego, CA. > > > > ***RenewPro is the more user friendly(mixability and taste) upgrade to ImmunePro.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 CS, You mean something similar to Renewpro? Sure, why not.

I take RenewPro myself, but people like my daughter--who depend on ImmunePro--will be up the creek if they can't get it. It is so sweet that it would cause severe hypoglycemia. A person I talked to at that company assured me that they would never phase out ImmunePro. Sue , Upstate New York Quote
Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 Sue- Are you saying that RenewPro has sugar in it? If so, I wouldn't be able to take it and I know that many of us are on low/no sugar diets.

RenewPro has NOT a single type of sugar or glucose added to it. Well Wisdom uses something called " lo han guo " to produce a very mild sweet taste in it, quite the opposite to what you're describing. ***Because of this, RenewPro has a zero glycemic index rating as part of its design. I think they're wanting to attract those with Diabetes type I & II among other population groups to using it as I recall. ***Maybe you're confusing some other company and product? I see no need for a call! Quote
Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 It may be an idea to check if it contains lactose and how much.. Regards CS Quote
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 It says it contains a very small amount of lactose, but that's it's below the level which should cause problems for people who are lactose intolerant. But, they say if it bothers you, you can take a lactose digestive enzyme. So I started taking Lactaid with it yesterday and it totally helped.
