strange kind of headache, 2 days later I had big gain in energy.

idea what would be the advantage of using extract, but maybe there is.

Thanks for the reply, interesting to know a Dutch herbs supplier. They indeed

have good prices for some of the herbs.

My guess was that olive leaf extract would be better for dealing with yeast on

the tongue, as the active ingredients are available right away. Chewing on olive

leaf (powder) for some time is probably unpleasant?

I also posted another message(considered spam?) about mangosteen juice, found a

another dutch seller, also does chinese herbs etc etc, just ordered some

knotweed there ; winkelcentrum.ailing.nl/

Also: gekruid.be has lot's of nice stuff.

Interesting! haven't heard that, but seems very plausible. The way I take it

helps for my gut but indeed doesn't work so much for the mouth; for that I use

the cloves (yes, kruidnagel). Some sites state you need fresh, preferably

organic cloves, but I think any will do: if they are older you just need more;

you'll notice.
