Thanks Elaine for the advice. I had one probiotic drink today, but it's only my first because I am a bit squeamish of the bacteria lol (thanks to OCD, and if caused by mercury, to the fillings, I have lots of stupid phobias).

I suffer quite a bit from thrush like symptoms so I guess one will do me some good.

The lemon drink sounds good. Thanks for the suggestion <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hi Demi,

I have a lot of mercury fillings, so this may pertain more to me then you but be careful of probiotics.....don't get me wrong, they are good for people but when someone has a lot of mercury, if you take too much....too much is on a daily basis for mercury laden people. But the mercury can cause the good flora to turn into extremely bad bacteria and has an opposite effect. I learned this the hard way.......I can take one probiotic pill every other day, but I usually take it on an "as need" basis.

Also, ya'll are going to hate me.......but I was on a fungus cleanse diet (a while back) and I started getting very sick and in my research, I found that the candida fungi actually keeps the mercury from turning into the lethal methyl mercury....again don't get me wrong, too much candida is bad but a little keeps the mercury in the solid form and if the mercury turns into a vapor, it goes into the cells and brain a lot easier and fasater.

And something that is good, drink a glass of water, with a half of a squeeze of lemon in it.....no sugar. The lemon water will help to keep you alkaline.....I like to drink a glass, first thing in the morning and one in the evening, (I keep adding water to it and sip on it for hours).....you will notice a big difference in how you feel....it really is amazing....and cheap.

Elaine
