Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Two years of diarrhea brought me to Dr. Skip for help. Avicel, a wood product, was Skip's suspicion. I've switched to acidophilus and no more allergy! God bless Dr. Skip!

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 According to the last conversation I had regarding the fillers, the reason Dr. Bihari was using lactose was that was what Inmet used in the original trials. According to the manufacturer less than 0.01% of the total population would have symptoms. This symptoms would be classical allergic reactions: ie redness some where. Avicel is basically cellulose, so in order to have an allergic reaction, one would expericence the same reaction with paper. If you can read a newspaper, then you can take naltrexone with avicel. Some folks have had coincidental problems, but the vast majority > 99.99% should not have a problem. Dr.Skip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 The tiny wood chips of Avicel caused two years of diarrhea before phoning Dr. Skip for help. My prescribing doctor ordered a stool sample, plus several things to take while attempting to persuade me I was allergic to LDN. I was very sure I wasn't giving the LDN up but didn't have the sense to phone Skip and change filler. shylotz --- dina feldon <ddko.ms@...> wrote: --------------------------------- Avicel is basically teeny tiny wood chips.
