Re: Olive leaf extract question

[Guest guest]

Thanks Dawn for the information. I don't have uc but i didn't know that about

caprylic acid in relation to uc so that's good to mention for those who do.

Coconut oil is high in caprylic acid isn't it? Weird that i can take Capryl but

I guess coconut oil creates major die-off for me because the last time i tried

it it bothered my stomach and gave me lots of joint pain. I want to try it

again at some point - going really, really slow though. Thanks.

1 Capryl capsule the first 2 wks - i have taken this before with no problem and

thought it'd be safe to start off with, 1/2 candidase for 5 days then full

capsule each day the rest of the second 2 wks). This past Tues. i started

taking 1/2 capsule of olive leaf extract (OLE) and have felt more energy, bm's

better- sorry tmi but have been having pellet-like bm's every other day (had

black specs in it Tues & Wed - die-off?)and felt better mental clarity. My

stomach soreness/pain has increased and have had some lower back pain/stiffness.

I took 1/2 capsule Tues & 1/2 on Wed. but didn't take any yesterday and am

debating on taking it today. Does anyone know if i should back off of it until

my stomach pain eases up or just decrease to 1/4 capsule maybe...every other

day? I guess the stomach soreness/pain is die-off? I've read OLE is very strong

so maybe it's just a lot stronger than the Capryl and Candidase and i need to go

a lot slower with it. I really have felt more energy and overall much better

using the antifungals so i do think they're helping. Thanks for any

information!

Yep, coconut oil is high in caprylic acid and you are welcome. I just thought

I'd throw that out there because we have been talking about candida a lot

lately!

What brand of Olive Lead Extract are you using? I took 1 capsule for 1 week, but

didn't feel any different. Maybe it's not potent enough. This week I'm doing

garlic. Next week I think I'll do GSE.
