Guest guest Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Hi , I had walking pneumonia. I really was hardly coughing at all actually. I had pneumonia once before and it was much worse than this. I think it really depends on the type of pneumonia. In general I do not have many Samters symptoms at all, or I should say they are basically completely under control with medications, and I rarely have gotten " sick " in the last eight years at all, so I've been lucky. I think the UltraInflamX use can just be based on your symptoms. I can't tolerate taking too much of it at once because of the chalky texture, so I would take as much as I could mix in a glass of apple juice for the regular yellow powder or now I use chocolate silk soy milk and the chocolate powder which is much better. I don't remember seeing what you said it says on the instructions, I would have to look at mine at home and I'm at work right now. I think during acute symptoms my doctor had me taking two scoops twice a day. But that was always too much for me. Plus the stuff is not cheap. Then again, if you can tolerate it and you have are having symptoms, I say use as much as you can tolerate and afford, up to maybe four scoops a day. Are you talking about instructions on the canister or somewhere else? I never got any separate instructions other than what my doctor told me. I think one important thing to be aware of is that you COULD subsist on this stuff for a while, it has a fair amount of calories. So depending on how much you use you'll want to reduce your calorie intake accordingly otherwise you could gain weight. It is basically a food. I'm not sure what it tells you about changing your diet. I think it depends on if there is something in your diet that is causing the inflammation. For many people there is. But I don't know what type of inflammation you have so I can't really speak to that. I've cut out a lot of stuff for me but I still have a sweet tooth and that's definitely a big problem. But moldy foods are the worst for me -- can't eat anything that's even been near a mushroom basically. ANd some cheeses are really bad. Well, good luck, let me know how it goes.
