I find it hard to understand that they say most paitients have troube with CSM,

I never have had, and no one I have personally talked to ever has.but I tried

the plant sterols, and got none of the good effects from it that I had come to

expect from CSM

Cholestyramine causes bloating, digestive discomfort and constipation in most

patients. We have experimented with plant sterols in the form of Cholestepure (2

X 3) with very good results and little or no negative effects. C-Food from

Precision Herbs (4 X 3) also works well for toxin removal. Plan on taking one to

two months for this. Stay away from moldy places and moldy foods.

UltraInflamX, Kaprex, Kaprex AI, and Biotics KappArrest. Homeopathics for mold

and Lyme would help.

A doctor I go to here recommended to me plant sterols. Dr Marinkovich had a

product from the sea. Can't remember it now. Does anyone know what I am

referring to?? Not seaweed! Just can't remember it. It comes in such tiny

packages though that I thought it might run up into a lot of money. I tried the

plant sterols and the sea product? but didn't notice as effect but didn't really

take much of them nor for very long. I had CSM already and when I got any

disturbing symptoms that I thought were from toxins, usually skin swelling at a

pulse point over blood vessel w rednes, I took the CSM and it helped BUT I did

have digestive trouble w it. A sign amt to start w, less later on. It may have

to do w condition of digestive system. I think I was full of Candida and that

probably causes inflamation in gi tract? and make it more easily irritated. I

couldn't keep it down when I first tried to use it, then stopped and didn't try

it again until almost a year later, half packages instead of whole pkg.

You can find bad things about many drugs. It depends on the person.

For me it caused nausea & bloating. I have gastritis history, so sens. to

citrus, spicy foods.

I understand it's helped many, supplement fat vitamins, listed at bottom.  I

don't know about the plant steroids. I got help w Nystatin, Now w these enzymes

 Enymedica w virastop helps digest viruses, along w 2 candidaise for yeast,

enzymes.  Don't know if they will help you. Kathy

Most common reaction is constipation

Less Frequent  Reactions: Abdominal discomfort/ pain, flatulence,

nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, eructation, anorexia, and steatorrhea, bleeding

tendencies due to hypoprothrombinemia (Vitamin K deficiency) as well as

Vitamin

A (one case of night blindness reported) and D deficiencies, hyperchloremic

acidosis in children, osteoporosis, rash and irritation of the skin, tongue

and perianal area. Rare reports of intestinal obstruction, including two

deaths,

have been reported in pediatric patients.

may prevent absorption of fat-soluble

vitamins such as A, D, E and K. When QUESTRAN is given for long periods of

time,

concomitant supplementation with water-miscible (or parenteral) forms of

fat-soluble
