Agnes/ Bob - please advise re: Intestinal formulas
Hi
A few months ago, you( Bob) advised me to use the Intestinal Formulas of Dr Schultz. I don't live in the States, but have now gotten hold of them. I do need some advice however.
Over the last few months, I have had continual bouts of diarrhea for days at a time. Whenever I've thought it is Ok to go back to eating a little bit of fat etc, I land up back at square 1 with a new bout. So for the last month, I've been eating only bland food such as bread/ toast, potato, oats, steamed veggies, egg whites and plain steamed fish. That is all without even olive oil. At least this way I have been able to get through the day without an "interruption" and have regained some strength. I am able to work out a bit, but obviously am a few kg's underweight. My system is now working once a day.
With this background,
Question 1: should I start the cleanse using Intestinal Formula 1 or 2? The site says to use Formula 2 if one has diarrhea already. I would suppose I am already in that boat seeing I can't eat normal food.
Question 2: Can I take probiotics during the cleanse. eg reuteri, interflora. Are these counterproductive, or will they be beneficial?
Question 3: Will I be able to work/ function almost normally during the day while doing the cleanse? I have about 10 days holiday now.
Question 4: Is it Ok to continue with the diet I am on now while on the cleanse?
Thank you for your help and suggestions in advance.
Mark
