Can anyone please describe the right way to take the sauerkraut cure? I have started to eat the raw cultured sauerkraut and have started to feel a little better and my appetite is much bigger on the days I eat the sauerkraut.

But I also have some negative symptoms. The first couple of days I started to eat sauerkraut I ate it without food, just a teaspoon at a time. For the first three days I felt like I had the flu. Achey all over, circles under my eyes, weak and tired. But at the same time that I was feeling bad I could also feel that some things were improving. My mind started to feel more clear and I could concentrate longer. I also had an inner feeling of peace. Since then I am taking a couple of teaspoons at a time once or twice a day without food but I am not feeling any further positive changes. And there have been some negative symptoms, like having to get up a couple of times a night to urinate, and a strange itching sensation inside my penis but not on the outside.

So what is the proper way to eat the sauerkraut? With food, before or after meals? How much should I eat a day? What are the symptoms that others have had during the first few weeks of eating sauerkraut? etc. Thanks for all your help.
