chanca piedra in the archives

[Guest guest]

if you guys havent searched the old posts from this forum, it would be worth

your time. So many people have been in the same boat as us years ago and have

learned even more info since then. Most of these people don't post anymore so

I've emailed some of them to see how they are doing and what has helped them.

Here's a post in 2002 about Chanca Piedra tea which is apparently pretty potent

stuff:

The following comes from http://www.cfsn.com/chanca.html

Chancatea

1 - jar, 125 grams (makes 125 cups)

Suggested Use:

Drink 1-3 cups per day on empty stomach

To Brew Tea: bring 3-4 cups of water to a boil, add 1 tablespoon chanca

piedra, bring to a boil, simmer for 15 minutes, strain and drink when

cooled to desired temperature.

This product has a diuretic effect so drink plenty of chlorine free water.

Supplements of magnesium and vitamin B6 may further enhance excretion of

calcium oxalate.

***Prolonged use may cause temporary symptoms of hypoglycemia.*** Taking

the tea in the evening before bed can ameliorate this side effect. If

hypoglycemia persists when not drinking the tea, discontinue use.

DO NOT USE IF PREGNANT OR NURSING
