Guest guest Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 A Herxeimer Reaction is a sudden exacerbation of symptoms caused by a flood of circulating dead organisms(fungus,candida,microorganisms,etc.) when starting any treatment that kills these organisms(antifungals,antibiotics,etc.) Symptoms are flu-like and usually last a few days.

I found that my supplements were upsetting my stomach,so I divided them morning and night so everythingdidn't hit my stomach all at once.You'll learn to tell the difference between a herxeffect and others if you listen carefully to yourbody.It's been my observation that the women who stopped adetox program at first indication of herxing, didn'tprogress at all, in fact, they have gottenprogressively worse. The worse herxing is usually during the first fewdays. Start with small doses and let the herxingimprove before adding more. When you recognise thedifference between getting sick from a product andherxing, you will come to appreciate the herx becauseyou know you are making progress.Hugs,Rogene__________________________________Do you ?

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 Had a VERY bad herx when I was treated for my Candida a year ago...ughhh ! No flu like symproms, but all the candida stuff multplied by 100, especially the fatigue and loss of balance and the slurring of my words. Felt brilliant afterwards though.....
