the body can adjust to almost anything, like temperature, pressure, pH,

electrolytes. Within certain margins of course, and if you give it the time to

adjust. I don't think there is any reason to worry about a mild blood thinning

ability of knotweed, there are many substances that have such an effect (or the

opposite effect), even in daily food.

IMHO NO; at least if you are not using drugs that influence heart or blood

pressure. Even at this knotweed dose, you are a factor of four or so below a

dose that has been proven safe historically. I'm guessing that just one daily

pill from an over-the-counter drug that adjust blood pressure is more dangerous.

Nothing is totally risk-free, but given the benefits I would continue using it

for some time.

If you don't notice any benefit after some weeks/month it may be better to stop

(gradually decrease dosage).

i don't personally know about knotweed blood thinning, but generally thinner

blood is good for your heart.

I finally reached 4x4 on Knotweed

As I did I got mild symptoms of light-headed, dizziness, mild heart issues

(symptoms I associate with Bart/Lyme dieoff)

And it's come to my attention that while this may be a herx - it's probably a

reaction to the herb, considering it is an anti-coagulant.

I've been told that your body will adjust - but if it doesn't to back off the

dosage.

My question is:

1) How does the body adjust

2) Do I run the risk of damaging my heart right now with Knotweed's blood

thinning ability

Anybody else at 4x4

Thanks knotweed.

The 4x4, other than that, has been amazing!!

My brain fog has completely lifted. Knotweed is so good for the head.

Now I need to work on joints (Teasel time)
