Vitamin C v. Ascorbic Acid & corn syrup

[Bubblingbrooks]

Bought some camu camu powder. Drank it in water last night. Tastes fine. Made my scalp tingle! LOL Kefir did that too so I will take that as a good sign. The bottle at Vitamin Cottage was tiny (just over an ounce) and expensive ($13), but if it works, I can get it way cheap online. According to the manufacturer, results should be seen in a week or so. Results in my case would be no constipation and fewer digestive issues. I will report back later.

Red Raspberry Leaf Tea relieves constipation as well. And its a kidney support. Can be very useful while healing the gut.

Also, as far as cost, Acerola Powder from http://www.radiantlifecatalog.com/product/Acerola-powder/raw-milk-infant-formula is 6 ounces for $10.95 and it has 47 servings.

Could be a coincidence. Everyone around here is sick and people have been coughing on me all week.

It sounds to me like you're allergic to the camu camu.

 

[Wifezilla]

I did consider that, but this is not how I normally react if I have a food allergy. I usually break out in hives. No hives.

Hard to tell with colds all around. Roy brought home sick. If I get sick after this cascade, I'll be annoyed. I doubled my vitamin d lol.

I've been wanting to lay out but can't

I will have to take D tonight. I think I still have some pills left from last winter.

I HATE COOTIES!!!

Scratch the NOW brand of Acerola. Has ascorbic acid in it
Mountain Rose Herbs sells pure Acerola powder, 1 pound for $33.
They are fast becoming my favorite supp and herb company.

WZ! let us know how you feel soon!

Went off all supplments for several days. Felt better. Decided to give the camu camu one more try. Woke up feeling like i had a combination of the flu and pms. Obviously i am reacting to the camu. Did some research and large doses of C interferes with progesterone production. Duh. That explains a lot.
