Guest guest Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Here is the CSM Protocol from Dr. Shoemaker. I followed these directions religiously and NEVER missed a dose. I had some heartburn and constipation in the beginning but nothing else. Milk of Magnesia also works well for the constipation. Sue CSM Protocol 1. On an empty stomach, take one scoop of CSM (9grams), mix with water, or juice, 4-6oz. ( I used Crystal Light, Peach Tea) 2. Stir well and swallow. Add more liquid, repeat 1 above until done 3. Drink an extra 4-6oz. of liquid 4. After 30 min., you may eat or take meds (wait at least 2 hrs. before taking thyroxine, digitalis, theophylline, coumadin & others, ask your Dr. for info) 5. Take CSM 4 times a day! 6. If you eat first, wait at least 60 minutes before taking your next CSM 7. Reflux, constipation, bloating & bowel distress are to be expected 8. Use acid blocking medications as needed 9. Use sorbitol, 70% solution, 1TBSP 3-4 times a day to relieve constipation Sue B, I think 30 minutes before is what is recommended for lowering your cholesterol, but I think for detoxing per Dr Shoe's protocol, that is too close to a meal. I believe he wants you to eat something fatty 30 minutes after to stimulate bile production but not much or CSM will be used to absorb fats totally and nothing left to absorb toxins...I THINK!! It says not to take medicine for 4 hours after CSM because it can absorb medicine still that long after taking it, so it must act for a long time.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 My understanding is that you take the CSM 1/2 hr before or at least 1 hour after a meal/supplements (that's what I'm recalling from the sheet which I have stashed somewhere, but will also leave behind when I move). I follow the protocol that Teitelbaum recommends since I also take thyroid medicine in the morning which has to be taken before/away from anything else as well: https://www.endfatigue.com/home.nsf/Basic?OpenFrameset & Frame=main_frame & SRC=Edit\ able+Documents/Useful+Articles?OpenDocument (if this link doesn't work, this is the " Neurotoxins-Treatment Information Sheet " - it's listed under the " Useful Artices " from the main page at www.endfatigue.com.) I take my supplements with the meal as many things I take need to be taken with or even before food (like digestive enzymes). I also take fish oil with every meal. I did increase the amounts on some supplements as I do think the CSM is binding some, but I don't have an alternative in terms of needing to take multiple supplements several times a day, so I couldn't possibly manage not taking them until 4 hours after the CSM. B -------------- Original message -------------- From: " nippernine09 " <nipper_nine@...> The directions that come with the drug say to take your other vitamins and drugs at least 1 hr before or 2-6 hrs after. But that's about time for the next dosing. Dr. Shoemaker I'm pretty sure says to take them at least 1/2 hr before or 1/2 hour after. I'd trust what he says first. I think the vitamins and supplements that you'd have to be concerned with are the fat soluble ones (vitamin E, A, fish oil caps, or any other oil based gel cap), as they might get soaked up by the resin if there isn't enough fat from the meal. So I would take them after the meal and even wait a bit longer. I think having a meal or something with fat (a handful of nuts at least) 1/2 hour after taking CMS is a great 1, 2 punch and awesome part of the detox process. Does anyone have the CMS literature that Dr. Shoe gives out at his office? I had to throw mine out due to contamination (such a cruel illness!). n , bbw <barb1283@...> wrote: > > B, I think 30 minutes before is what is > recommended for lowering your cholesterol, but I > think for detoxing per Dr Shoe's protocol, that > is too close to a meal.
