Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 I get headaches unless I take the ALA every 3 hours... I can't even go 4 hours at night or I'll be headachy the entire next day. I would definitely try using it more frequently next round and see what happens. So, you are just opening a capsule and rubbing it in to the skin with emu oil? Any idea how much is actually absorbed?

I got headaches when I tried dosing at a 6 hr interval instead of the 3 hr interval recommended by Andy. Try taking it every 3 hrs (4 hrs at night) for 3 days minimum and see if your headaches go away. Also, 1/4- 1/2 mg per pound of body weight, and start on the low side.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 I weigh 143 lbs so I guess I should use 36mg-71mg. I was trying out on 6 hourly basis. I really dont know how much is absorbed - trying it on myself. Initially when I applied onto my calf, I can feel the sandiness of the oral substance - probably that's the fillers but after a couple of hours, I don't feel that tiny granules is there anymore - I guess the large molecules would have dropped off the skin when emu oil dries off. Yes, one of my tooth has almagam but does it matter if I'm doing it transdermally? I thought it's only harmful if I take it orally. Gee, I think I'll stop first.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Also, upp your magnesium and make sure you are supplementing yourself with enough minerals, etc. and lots of water. My kids have gotten headaches while chelating but upping the magnesium has resolved it very quickly. Oh, and my kids have also gotten " pulling " sensations in their heads--no kidding!

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Definitely stop due to that amalgam. Orally or transdermally, once it is in the bloodstream it is all the same.

If the ALA is pulling metals, it is likely to cause yeast overgrowth. Try increasing your yeast protocol, see if that helps. Are you sure you tolerate the emu oil?

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 I guess I'll stop for now as I have one tooth with amalgam. Yes, I've been taking 4-8 capsules of PB8 probiotics (14 billion CFUs per capsule) daily for the last 1 month. I'm sure I tolerated emu oil - this is the very same brand & bottle of emu oil that I applied onto my back when I got backache last year Oct - on all occasions I dont get headache.
