Guest guest Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Thanks Dana. On a completely different topic - what can you recommend for bacteria? My daughter doesn't have a yeast prob just bacterial issues and GSE doesn't seem to be helping. Is there anything specifically for bacteria?

I used Culturelle for bacteria. >> My daughter doesn't have a yeast prob just bacterial issues and > GSE doesn't seem to be helping. GSE works only for yeast for my kids. If I gave it when there was no yeast, it caused bad bacteria. > Is there anything specifically for > bacteria? When chelation was causing yeast for my kids, I would do a round when they had bacteria problems and that helped.

Hi Jacqui, It is fine to chelate every weekend if you want. You mentioned one reason someone might wait (nasty side effects)-- since you are not having nasty side effects, you don't have to consider spreading out the time in order to " rest " . Some kids and adults want a longer rest time, either for physical recovery (from chelation and chelation agents), or for recovery from sleep disruption. Sometimes it is also just inconvenient or tiring to do chelation for practical reasons. If those don't apply, feel free to chelate every weekend. And, yes, it is faster that way good wishes, Moria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 No adverse reactions, however, I use the 3/11 schedule to give my sons liver some extra time to recoup. I am not doing lab testing that often to check liver function so unless I know for sure that all is okay I will continue the 3/11 cycles.
