did not have pleasant experiences.

==>Hi wordracer. Root canals are actually quite dangerous.

I sometimes (infrequently) take Centrum Forte supplements, but have

not taken anything else.

==>Most of the supplements I take are from Natural Factors. We are

trying to put together a list of some brands but it is a big job. At

this time it would help you most by posting a message with your

country and location to get the help of other members.

and " ascorbic acid " and some reviews say " ascorbic acid " is not the

same as the REAL vatimin C you naturally get from fruits and

vegetables.

==>Yes I'm aware of that. Ascorbic acid is recommended by

Orthomolecular Physicians. They even give it intravenously to cure

cancer. You should be taking 1,000 mg per day of a tablet that

contains bioflavonoids, rutin, etc. per my article and our

supplements list.

==>I have probiotics on hand to take whenever I need them which is

Natural Factors but since I don't have candida I'm not concerned

whether it derived from dairy. I think Trophic has one that is non-

dairy and contains no soy, wheat, gluten, sugar, preservatives, etc.

==>You shouldn't be having any dairy except butter. Unfortunately

there are nutrients in red meat that are very important for the body.

==>You are welcome. May I ask that you please trim your messages;

see our group's files (left menu) and look in the folder " Candida

Group Info " for how to do it and why. Thanks a bunch.
