Dear Carlos, Back in my earlier days of experimenting with CS, I went for a spell of probably several weeks, taking several mouthfuls per day of fairly concentrated CS (probably 20ppm or more, large particles, dark amber colored). I started to feel tired and weak, with achiness in my large muscle groups. It was starting to be painful to climb stairs, get out of a chair, or otherwise haul myself around.
Then somebody on the list happened to describe the symptoms of acute calcium deficiency, which matched what I was experiencing. I asked Rosie to go to the store and buy me a half-gallon of orange juice with added calcium citrate. After drinking a few glasses of that over the course of a day, I was back to normal. It turns out that our intenstinal flora is crucial to absorption of calcium, and I had succeeded in disrupting mine. So it can happen. CS is indiscriminate in the germs it will kill. However, it works best in a liquid environment, and least well in a solid medium. Thus it tends not to disrupt intestinal flora unless you're particularly aggressive with it. Repopulating with probiotics or other aids is a prudent measure to take, as it should greatly speed re-establishment of the healthy colony of "friendly" bacteria we so depend on. Be well, Mike D. > Hello, > > I have read many times that CS does not damage our helpful bacteria, but > recently there was a comment recommending use of yoghurt or other > acidophilous culture in order to correct the damage caused by CS to our > fermentative intestinal flora after prolongued use. > > How long and at what doses does "prolongued" mean?
