Guest guest Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 Thanks for re-typing the reply, . I gave her 1 AFP with her yogurt yesterday afternoon (she usually has 1/3). About 15 - 20 minutes afterwards, she said she was tired, needed to rest, was hungry (she also says she's hungry shortly after taking Candidase - it must mean her stomach is unsettled) and became cranky, negative and noncompliant. It was a complete turn-around that lasted a couple hours. Does this sound right? Obviously I can't give her extra capsules at preschool right away! It's actually strange - I've given her 1 AFP & 1 Zyme together and then she hasn't eaten her meal, but don't remember getting this clear of a response. Might Zyme Prime actually help balance the effects during the adjustment period? For her to get over it quickly, would I need to do it 3 times a day for a couple days, or do you think that once a day for a few days would do the same thing? I really appreciate your help!!!!
