Guest guest Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 " What is quercetin chalcone? I know quercetin is a bioflavanoid (I used it for allergies some years ago), but what is the chalcone bit? " I found this on Wikipedia: Chalcone is an aromatic ketone that forms the central core for a variety of important biological compounds, which are known collectively as chalcones. They show antibacterial, antifungal, antitumor and anti-inflammatory properties. They are also intermediates in the biosynthesis of flavonoids, which are substances widespread in plants and with an array of biological activities. Chalcones are also intermediates in the Auwers synthesis of flavones. " I would be a bit suspicious about getting joint pain from it. I don't trust " detox reactions " . " My ND didn't like this either and took me off it once. Then I got a toxic reaction to some local honey (dizziness for 1 1/2 weeks until I finally figured out the source and removed it), and she placed me back on it. This time the joint pain was more mild and lasted longer. The first time it lasted 3 days. This time it lasted weeks and even still gives me mild pain here and there. It is always in my lower back, like where it meets my pelvis. She said it sounded like my body isn't keeping up with the detox and wanted me to slow down or quit the MediClear. It is difficult for me to listen, when I am craving it so much! Honestly I am not craving it at the moment, but consuming the green clay did something for me. I suspect that is why I am not craving this MediClear right now. Now I have stopped the clay, so we'll see. -Olif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe mix up some rice protein powder along with taking your supplements and see if that fills the craving? You could also try adding some of the ingredients in the MediClear one at a time and see if you can identify what it is your body needs (and maybe what is causing the joint pain). -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
