If your water kefir is 'tangy & fizzy', it's KEFIR!    Then yes I got me some kefir ! and before I got a chance to read this message I went ahead and drain the liquid off and started a new batch .. I drank it all too! it had that molasses taste and could have been much better I guess but it was ok ..I think I can drink anything I if can drink epsom salts !! cause that stuff is the nastiest tasting stuff ever ..glad I dont have to fool with that stuff anymore.

At this point, if you want to do a second fermentation to 'add flavor', then take out the grains and add whatever fruit, juice, ginger root, etc., you would like...put the lid back on and let it ferment another 2 days (more or less).    I did .I put a paper towel over it and screwed the band on ..I am using a quart jar . that stuff expands so much ! glad I didnt use more than 2 tblsp of grains

You don't *have* to rinse the grains, you can take them right from one batch and put 'em into another batch...or if you want to rinse them, put them in spring water (not distilled or RO, and NOT TAP WATER) for 12-24 hours. I think most folks recommend against rinsing/soaking them, unless they start smelling or acting funky.    I did use filtered tap water and it was successful .. should I use spring water instead if what I am doing is working? 

The one thing I didn't see on your plan? Making sure you're having 2-3 bms daily. You've GOT to get "downward flow" going strong for your body/stomach to heal itself...no matter what herbs you use. yep true ..I dont go much when I dont eat much though .. I need the IF#1 and #2

IF#1...and if you can't tolerate that, then prune juice'll work.   yep I got me plenty of prunes and prune juice . although today I have been suffering from diarreah and rumblings in the stomach .. maybe from the garlic I ingested this morning which by the way I done ok with that . just 3 small cloves that would probably make 1/2 of a large one

Btw, have you ever tried opening up a capsule of IF#1 and just taking the powder, rather than taking the capsule? That works like a charm for some people.  yes I tried emptying the capsule into the IF#2 and adding more slippery elm to it and it was just too much for me ..it caused pain and loss of appetite again .I really feel like a juice fast would help me out here but since I can't take the IF#1 then what else can I take? prune juice ? organic smooth move tea? if there is anyting else that will work then I would give it a go .. made me some awesome carrot/celery/parsley/spinach and apple juice today ..think it was the best I ever made .. It was a good pint and that was my breakfast ..havent had anything but some potatoes and broccoli since .. can't even tolerate lemon water which is my favorite with a little stevia ..

 It does seem that when I do the castor oil pack I wake up and I am just so low on energy and feel like crap for  a while and it takes me a while to recover  .. can you explain this? do I need to do morning coffee enema ? no doubt it would be better if I could do the whole protocol but was wondering if I was stirring up things in my liver too much or something .

by the way I seen doc today *the surgeon* no scope though!  and he said that the blood test would always be positive since I have had the infection and it would only show antibodies  so that was not reliable and suggested I get the breath test to really see if thats it .. I may not have it . it may have just been taking the taurine that did it .. he said it was up to me and I said ok I would have the test just to see what  I am up against here ..if I dont have it then great ! if I do then hopefully I got me some good herbal medicine to get rid of it. or  I got me a bad case of inflamed stomach to deal with .. It does seem better ..at least the test in non-invasive ..just gotta blow into a bag ..LOL.. I can do that ! told him what  I was doing to help me and he said that he would give me 2 weeks maybe a month then he was gonna have to do something .(he thinks that anyways).so I wanna go in there and show him how much I have improved on my own without taking drugs ..he told me I needed to be on some meds for reflux and I said no thank you .

The amounts on DGL have been 2 chewables before eating  .. which I dont always eat so I would say about 2 times a day is more normal for me now .aloe vera juice -big swig in the morning and evening probably about 3 -4 oz .. mastic gum I just got in the  mail so plan on trying that tonight .. my daughter has company over so I am waiting for them to leave ..just dont like to try new things when company is here in case of reaction or whatever . when I drank the kefir about half way in my hands started getting real cold and after a bit it subsided and been feeling ok ever since .feeling kinda bloated though is that normal??.as I said I drank it all and started a fresh batch .YAY!Can you tell me what the root beer herbs are for ? can I flavor the kefir with them ? they smell awesome and would love to use them

I know I gotta get my liver and digestive system straightened out and I am sure a lot of my problems will resolve on their own .. I am trying UNY ! I really am .You have told me this forever I know but I am finally stable enough mentally to get my head wrapped around some of the things I need to do here .I am more able to focus now for whatever reason .

Heal ON!   thanks so much :)
