I haven't. I take CS partly for intestinal candida as well, but I don't think I have the bacterial infection you have. In fact when I've eaten too much of something that sets off intestinal upset, I'll sip between 6oz to 12 oz or so of CS, sometimes in gatorade. Even when I've had as much as a quart of CS I've never had any adverse reaction of any kind. Maybe I'm just lucky. paula ----- Original Message ----- From: silversurfer1952 .
Hello List, I'm new here, as you know. The reason I wanted to try CS in the first place was to address what I believe to be a bacterial infection in my gut. I have tried taking large amounts of various probiotics but it hasn't addressed the problem. I once had a stool analysis which found staph aureus. Also, I may or may not have candida. I brewed my first batch of CS on Saturday and started taking about 2 Tbsp. twice a day (total of 1/4 cup). I believe the brewed solution is approx. 24 ppm. I find that around two to three hours after ingestionr I get gut aches and my lower abdomen bloats. Although uncomfortable, it's not impossible to bear. I'm wondering if this might be a sign that the CS is working to kill off pathogens. Has anyone else had this side-effect from taking CS? thanks in adavance. Elle
