Re: A trend I've been noticing among testimonials, still has be hesitant to try EM...

Hi animalcollective, its understandable to be hesitant but the only answer is to try it for yourself. I'm one of the ones who felt worse after several days but that probably says more about the state of my body than the EM itself, given the small amount I was taking. I'm very new to EM and in the experimental stage and finding what works for me.

I know other people drink it with no problems. I felt bad yes, my gut got worse as if I had more of an overgrowth....not the worst I have ever felt no, plus I'm dealing with lots of issues. I went back to my 'normal' state when I stopped taking it. I used the food grade one yes. If you think about what its used for....cleaning out dirty ponds etc....its extremely potent so if you have an overgrowth it will start to shift things fairly rapidly, then whether or not candida or other dysbiotic bacteria 'fight back' I dont know. Depends on the general environment within your gut I suppose.

Now I'm just sticking to 1 tspn every day or every other day depending on how I feel, I'm having increased bowel movements again but still a slight feeling of fullness so i'll just monitor things. I'll keep you posted. But if you have systemic candida or other gut issues just take it slow.
