Sorry this is GSE and SSRI

[Guest guest]

From Dana's view-

I use GSE [grapefruit seed extract] for my son's yeast issues. It works GREAT!

Eliminated his yeast issue in 2-3 days. I use the concentrated drops from

Nutribiotic, which I buy at my local health food store. There is available a

capsule form of GSE, but I have never used that so I do not know if it is

equally as effective. There are a few potential negatives to GSE that I know of,

one is that it does have phenol effect, so start with 1-2 drops in the morning,

then watch to see any phenol-type reactions. Also, if your child is using SSRI

medication, then you should not use GSE, because it slows down liver metabolism

and affects levels of medications like SSRIs. And in individuals with liver

metabolism which is already slow, they would want to avoid GSE, or if for some

reason GSE is required, it is recommended to avoid strong-flavored foods and

spices, and that will help.

Does anyone know about this whole GSE with SSRI problem?

How dangerous and serious is this?
