Hi Judy,

The advice of 1/2 a cup a day to start with for your Mother to drink

would have been fine. Your Mum must have liked the KT, it seems, but

drinking too much at the beginning very often causes a nauseous

reaction, some folk come out in rashes.

That is nothing unusual. It's called a 'healing crisis'.

However, a very important question here: How much water does your

Mother drink during the day? Water is an absolute must whether you

drink Kombucha or not. Kombucha is diuretic (draws extra water out of

the body) and leaves you dehydrated unless you put water back in.

If your Mum didn't get enough water the detox symptoms would be

much worse.

Tea, coffee and other diuretic drinks don't count as 'water'.

Preach water to your Mum. It's a life style that often needs

deliberately practising.

An average adult human is supposed to drink about 1 1/2 litres

of water per day (about 6 American cups).

I try to get this routine established myself (and I don't find it easy!)

by putting a labelled bottle aside with name on (your mother's name on)

a bottle that holds approx the amount of water she needs to drink.

It's easy then to see, whether she is meeting her target.

Another point, it is important to take any medicine at about 2 hours'

distance from drinking Kombucha that the Kombucha will not interfere with

the drugs your mother takes.

Hope that helps.

kombuchaly,

Margret:-)

Hi Margret,

Thank you very much for the advice. I don't know how much water she

drinks, it's not my mother, it's my friend's mother, but I will find

out and make sure she drinks more.

Good morning,

Judy was talking about my mother. These are the meds she takes.

Lipitor 10 mg. and Allegra-D. I told her to start out with 2 oz. a day

for about a week, but " mom's know best " and that first day she tried

to drink another 2 oz. about 4-5 hours later. The first 2 oz., she

was fine, but the 2nd 2 oz she had drank about 1 oz. of it and got

sick to her stomach. The next day she tried only an oz. and got a

upset stomach, about 30 mins after she drank it. The first day was

with food, the second day was on an empty stomach. As for her water

intake she already drinks 4 - 6 10 oz. glasses per day.

Hi ,

It's about time you put your 2 cents in:o) Read the posts on water

and also about drug interactions from Bev, they are very

interesting. Side effects are caused by drugs, not by foods and the

posts about nausea being caused by not enough water I believe.

Whenever I have a problem with my stomach I drink water and it goes

away.

Hello and all.

I took Allegra last year for just a short while and also experienced

nosebleeds so I threw them out!

After reading all those side effects, I can't believe anyone would

actually take this junk. It's dangerous to have too low cholesterol

to start with. But then, after all I've read about what the drug

companies do to get us to take their drugs, it's no wonder everyone

is brainwashed.

When used as prescribed, prescription drugs kill more people than terrorism, car

accidents, AIDS and street drugs combined.
