I've HEARD that a strong reaction like that means that it is killing your yeast, but who really knows??? Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not vomiting, no, but it did give me the worst die-off symptoms of any of my antifungals (caprylic acid, oregano oil, garlic and something mysterious from my homeopath), and it tends to give me a mild but presistent migraine (without the nausea, bizarrely) on the days I take it. It makes my stomach talk as well! Here's a confession for you, though - I like the taste of it...... Sorry to hear about your car accident - hope you're feeling better soon!!

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2000 Report Share Posted October 4, 2000 >> I have tried a cup today for the first time and got very sick today (vomiting). Has anyone experienced this sort of reaction to pau d'arco? << Raen, First I like to say that from a non-tea drinker, that I found Pau d'arco tea to be very nice tasting. Prior to taking the tea I had been doing other things, so that may have had an impact on how I responded to it. My naturopath never told me to take it, I did this on my own. Sometimes I would get the feeling that I wanted to gag, but it was a kind of a mild feeling. Then one day out of the clear blue sky I had to use the bathroom real bad. After going I felt much better. This was the only time that this happened while I was on the tea. At my next visit to the doctor I mentioned what had occurred and was told that my system probably was " purging " . I am sure that I would have experienced what you did had I not already been on something prior to using this tea. My whole efforts revolved around keeping the flow coming out of the bottom and not the top. Just the thought of the possibility of what could come out totally horrified me. Take care, Niz __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 It works best when it has been boiled. I put a couple tea bags in my tea pot, add a couple cups of water and put it on the stove and bring it to a boil. Then I take it off and let it steep for 10-15 minutes. It doesn't seem to be as effective if it isn't brought to a boil, like just pouring boiling water over it. And it definitely wouldn't work as sun tea. lindaj@...

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 Hi Candace, Just skimming thru the posts and came across yours. I agree, the pau d'arco tea has quite an interesting taste - kinda reminds me of tree bark. I started steeping mine with a tea ball filled with Calendula petals and it really made it taste much better. Much more than I thought. The calendula took that barky, " dry " taste out of it and kinda smoothed it out over all. You might want to give that a shot. Calendula is also an antifungal. FYI - it has a reputation for stimulating menstruation and has been shown to posses abortificient properties. -- " My dog isn't stubborn, he's just smarter than me!

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 For me, pau d'arco tea has always been a very mild tea with sometimes subtle effects. Some of them weren't obvious until I stopped drinking it for a while. But I have attributed lack of headaches, no cough or winter cold like I have had in most of the past 50+ years, easier breathing and better circulation to the pau d'arco tea.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 I'd like to chime in on the Pau D'Arco tea, I just came down from a practically debilitating 10 day high from that tea! I started taking the H2O2 and the tea at the same time so I assumed my constantly buzzed state was just major die-off from the H2O2 so I stepped back down on that and continued all my other antifungals: garlic, coconut oil, and the tea, well my " buzz " didn't go away until I stopped drinking that TEA! I was afraid to drive I was so stoned. I am finally able to think clearly enough to write this warning, be careful with the Pau D'Arco tea! It's effects are cummulative on the body too, the first few days I drank it I felt nothing then after 4 or so consecutive days I was sailing! Shirley G. P.S. Whoever suggested the Castile soap from Trader Joe's, thank-you very much. It is wonderful. I got the one with peppermint oil in it and it is delightfully " sting-y " It was only $8.99 for a qt or so. >From: Zack Widup <w9sz@...> >For me, pau d'arco tea has always been a very mild tea with sometimes >subtle effects.

Hi Shirley, I don't think it was the tea that made you high, I think it was the toxins from the candida dying off that mimics being drunk. But definitely you would want to cut back on the antifungals a bit if you can't drive, and go slower on them. > P.S. Whoever suggested the Castile soap from Trader > Joe's, thank-you very > much. It is wonderful. I got the one with peppermint > oil in it and it is > delightfully " sting-y " It was only $8.99 for a qt or That was me, and I have used the Peppermint too with good success, but I find the tea tree soap does a much better job for tougher skin problems. The peppermint makes you feel so refreshed, it's like the feeling you get when you brush your teeth, but all over your body. It's just the cleanest feeling without being harsh at all. The tea tree oil is antifungal and antibacterial though, and is much better for tougher topical skin issues like rashes, acne and psoriasis, but is also mild, but not as refreshing as the peppermint.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 hi shirley- i also have not had any stimulated or high feelings from pau d'arco. zack's idea is a good thing to follow up on, make sure that what you got was indeed pau d'arco, and if it is, make sure its not mixed with green tea or some other stimulating tea. die off symptoms can create light headed-ness, dizziness, etc. so it could be that, how much were you drinking in a day? ~ suz > Hmm ... interesting.

I am doing the H2O2/epsom salt baths and I didn't feel good about using a cheap toxic soap afterwards when I rinsed off, it was really starting to bother me because I thought that one was negating the other so your suggestion came right on time. Thanks again. How's your mouth doing? Shirley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Just putting my two cents worth in on the Pau D'Arco - I am drinking about 6 cups of it a day (to relieve chronic hives) and it has had no effect on me whatsoever mood or reality wise!! RE: [ ] Re: Pau D'arco Tea Hey Suz, I'm not sure you can qualify this as a die-off. I was " high " high. I know this because I smoked pot when I was young and foolish. I had bloodshot eyes, cotton mouth, the munchies, I couldn't remember anything, and I was paranoid. It was exactly like I remembered from years ago. My friend had a theory, he thought the H2O2 was liberating all those toxins from my youth, from my tissues. That makes sense to me but believe me when I tell you it has stopped since I got off the tea and I am back on the H2O2. The pau d' arco that Whole Foods sells is the Frontier brand. I also bought some from a box and I will try that out on my next day off when I don't have to drive. I do have a co-worker who drinks the tea and corroborated that she too was affected similarly as I. FUNNY STUFF!!
