Hi William (and others) I explicitely said a couple of times, that I'm only talking about Cystic Fibrosis patients - this is the only place we have tested the CS so far. In the Nutritions Book says that CS is "similar to antibiotics" so with Cystic Fibrosis people it shouldn't be used for more that 10-15 days. In their case the Pseudomonas eventually kills them by forming a colony in the lungs. The colony can't be stopped by any antibiotic (including CS). Additionally as far as I have read all the lab tests with CS (and BTW the majority of the antibiotics) against bugs are on a single platonic cell. But the bug biofilm that is formed in CF lungs is much 'stronger' than an autonomous cell and thus the antibiotics (including CS) have weaker effect (in some cases none). So far I have only found 1 paper that tests antibiotics on a biofilm, not a planctonic cell. Did I manage to confuse everyone :)? Oh, also some doctors have recommended CF people to not use CS for more than 10-15 days (implied resistency). Again I'm only talking about CF patients her.. Cheers Maia
