Mimi,Helen, Re: About to start diet - yoghurt?

[Guest guest]

Hi , yes, I am on CFS Experimental. My doctor has me on two

B12 shots a day, so getting a lot of that. If you can get Immunocal

or Imuplus, they are lactose-free, I read recently. My doctor

specifically wants me on ImmunePro so I will have to risk the small

amount of lactose.

When I came on this list I asked about kefir and someone sent me some

links, if you search on this list on the word kefir you will find

some information about it. That's another thing I want to try down

the road.

I hope you don't get the die-off. What I am doing is slowly chucking

things out of my diet before I go on it, to make it more gradual.

take care,

Helen
