THANK YOU FOR THIS INFO!!!!! Both of my boys(7yo Aspie, 4yo nt) have

chronic sinus problems(4yo just came off a 3 1/2 week run of

antibiotics and HE IS NO BETTER!!). This little paragraph answered

soooo many questions. And I'm happy to say that we are already

taking Olive Leaf Extract that will kill the candida.

THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN!!!! Like I said above, we began taking Olive

Leaf Extract a few weeks ago, which kills candida. After my 7yo

Aspie ds had been on it for a week he stopped having what I

call " thinking days " . On these days he is, well, " spacy " all day. We

can't do anything 'cuz he can't focus and he is highly irritable if

we, as he puts it, " move around alot " on those day. This again

answered another question, which was " why " is the Olive Leaf helping

him. Now I know.

I just can't thank you enough for posting this.

Thanks,

Lea
