Stacie,

My son still can't swallow pills, but he learned to take lauricidin but

placing it (pushed down but still partly visible) in fresh cheese

(strained yogurt). Fresh cheese is very thick. Plain yogurt or

anything more liquid like that wouldn't work for us. I also would

say, " don't chew, don't chew " . He did chew the first time and

lauricidin tastes just awful. That helped him understand what I

meant. I started with just one, but after a few weeks he could take 15-

20 at a time.

It caused massive amounts of yeast here, so much that I was unable to

control it. I moved to other anti-virals, which still caused a lot of

yeast, but not as much as the Lauricidin.

I haven't started giving it to him yet. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for the help! I actually tried one tonight...chewed it up.

Wasn't as aweful as I thought it was going to be but pretty bad. My

son is on SCD diet and no dairy, so I'm thinking I'll have to hide it

in butternut squash or something. I like the " don't chew " idea. I

think we'll give that a whirl.

Dana,

Were your kids SCD when doing Lauricidin? We've finally gotten my

son's yeast issues well under control through diet. He's only on

biotin for maintenance. Just curious about the yeast you saw with your

kids.

Thanks

> Dana, what was your dose for Lauricidin?

I started with one pellet per day, and increased up to a full scoop.

Way too much yeast, even with just one pellet.

>>I have the pellets and the dose on the back says 1/4 tsp to 1 tsp

1-3 times a day. Do you use this instead of vira-stop or OLE? Or do

you use it in combo?

I switched from Lauricidin to OLE/Virastop, because the yeast was

uncontrollable with Lauricidin. Yeast was " a lot but controllable "

with OLE/Virastop.

200,000 iu for the last 3 days.

> Am I now supposed to back down to normal doses (ie 25,000iu a

day) for the remaining days of the month and then do the high

doses again for 2 days at 300,000 to 400,000 iu the next month?

I did high dose protocol twice. Your 200,000 IU does not qualify as

" high dose protocol " , not sure you were trying to do that or not. It

is 400,000 IU per day for two days.

No, my son did not tolerate most of the SCD legal foods.

The yeast on Lauricidin was uncontrollable, despite giving doses of

GSE that I was really uncomfortable giving. So I went to

OLE/Virastop, and then vitamin C and lysine, and I did have to use

high doses of biotin and GSE, but not so high that I was uncomfortable

giving them.
