Re: Lurking Mommy needs help

[Guest guest]

I had a bug too this week and tried Grapefruit seed extract. Look on the

internet for the dosage. I just put a bunch of drops in juice every few

hours (tastes horrible!)...the cold lasted two days...not sure how long it

would have lasted without it. Anyone else had success with it?

For my cold last week GSE drops in diluted oj really helped with

symptoms. The jury's still out on whether it's helping my little guy's

yeast issues...

all SCD benefitting greatly from it and despising the typical

" convenience-based " North American diet even more...
