Guest guest Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Hi Bee... I guess it is around 10 months on the diet now and as you may recall I have not been taking any supplements at all for a couple of months or more and doing a lot better for that. My coconut oil and fats have been up there for months too and have no issues/reactions when I'm sure I have up to 10 tablespoons of VCO in a day (if I do three stir-fries that day for instance). The ol' gut is just as random and sensitive as ever so no changes there really. So after the last " attack " 10 days ago I decided maybe it was time to add some proactive steps finally. Started with mixing drops of clove oil in my meals and went off memory (I thought!) and put three drops on each meal TID - three times a day. No reactions of any kind so I upped it to 6 drops three times a day as I had thought I was aiming for 9 drops ultimately... Now I see that is a total of nine drops in the day if using three drops TID. Ooooops... Is that a problem? Is 6 drops TID too much if nothing negative happening? Not sure what Clove Oil's long term impact is, though it may be helping to calm my gut a bit like the antibiotics used to in the " bad old days " . Does mixing the Clove Oil with food at a meal dilute the effect or does it still do the job? Hope you are well... Best, M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, clove oil with food will still do the job, however there is no point in taking that much, since your body just becomes overwhelmed so it will stop the healing process. Like us it becomes overwhelmed when too much is coming at it, and also like us it just shuts down in order to stop being overwhelmed. Too much of a good thing isn't good; in other words " more is not better. " The healing process cannot be speeded up, and the body cannot be pushed to heal. Your body will take the time it needs irregardless of the numbers or types of treatments. The only thing that actually heals/cures is " proper nutrients " and eliminating toxins and damaging foods. > Hope you are well... +++Yes, I am very well. Thanks for that! The best always, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
