Guest guest Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 , Thanks for reminding me about aloe. Didn't know about its lowering effect on high lactic acid level. Thanks for sharing! I used to take it in a liquid form (high tech extraction and $$$) and need to see about trying it again. Have plants around because I use it for burns. Maybe I'll try it that way first.....considering it's FREE! So sorry to hear of your daughter's experience with abx still causing problems. Such a shame. I just had one thought. Yudo Erasmus makes an probiotic (acidophilus, etc.,) that he recommends you take by opening the capsule and then " chewing " the contents, making the beneficial probiotics available to the mouth (especially for thrush), esophagus and stomach. I believe most probiotics are just designed to re-introduce benefical flora to the intestines. Wondering if one could do the same thing with other brands of probiotic capsules, but don't know. << Goldenseal btw works as a natural antibiotic. Since you had problems with it, it is probably because you have a problem with antibiotics period.>> I'm not sure this was my problems, because garlic and grapefruit seed extract (ParaMicrocidin) are also natural antiboitics and I don't have probems with them . I'm guessing that the problem I have with Golden Seal might be related to its potential to lower blood pressure. At the time I tried it ,mine was already " in the cellar " . It's so wonderful that nature has given us a number of natural antibiotics in her cupboard and there are so many potential alternatives to abx that people can try. Thanks and Best Wishes, Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 I did not know about aloe and the loweing of lactic acid. Mine is always high. (I have MELAS). Used to have aloe vera plants but when we moved did not get more. Have the gel but will go to the natural foods store and see about getting some liquid or capsules.
