Coconut aminos/vinegar, die-off?, phenols, and my pathogens

Hv, I need your awesome advice:

I found Coconut Secret Coconut Aminos and Coconut Vinegar at the healthfood store (These are WAY healthier than the Braggs stuff...plus, I'm allergie to apples, so I can't use ACV, which makes this coconut stuff even more awesome, not to mention that coconut is just pure evil against pathogens!)

There is a lot of awesome health benefits in these products. Here is the website:
Aminos: http://www.coconutsecret.com/aminos2.html

Vinegar: http://www.coconutsecret.com/vinegar2.html


My question is:
-one of my pathogenic strains is Citrobacter, which thrives on FOS. The vinegar contains FOS, which is vital for the good flora to prosper....but it also would be great fuel for the Citrobacter (and possibly the other strains). If I use the vinegar, would I be doing more harm than good?

Also, do the Aminos contain FOS? How do the Aminos support good bacteria?

I need to support the good guys, but I don't want to give the bad dudes any more fuel than they already have. Any opinion?

Another queston: I've been experiencing massive cramps, gas, bloating all day long for several days. Is this die-off? I haven't really changed anything, except I changed to a more potent probiotic (but it is grown on dairy/soy)...so am I reacting or is this die-off? It's really uncomfy.

Lastly, I discovered I'm very sensitive to phenols/thiols/sulfur...most likely due to the mercury toxins (many people have issues with phenols if Hg toxic). Any advice on this? I'm bummed b/c garlic is such a good thing to eat, as well as tumeric and eggs...but they really bother me.

Thanks, as always!
