Does OLE also kill good flora? Where can I fit the dosage in my med schedule? Can I take it along with supplements?

7 AM - ABX & Nystatin
10AM - Probiotic
2 PM - Vitamin, fish oil, B-100, milk thistle
7PM - ABX & Nystatin
10 PM - Probiotic

Thanks,
Jen

Yes it does. You can take it with your ABX it it's not too much on your stomach or you can even take

your probiotic at 2:00 with the rest of your supplements and squeeze the OLE in somewhere in between with a meal.

Many doctors recommend taking probiotics after your meal.

jen,

your schedule looks good. [Smile]

my health food advisor always recommends taking probiotics alone (not the same time with any other supplements or abx). this doesnt mean food tho.

olive leaf is an antifungal and could be taken at 2:00 pm with all your other supplements.

im almost sure the antifungal could lose effect if taken exactly at the same time as abx. but you can always wait an hour and then take it.

Thank you. Olive leaf extract is a pill (not liquid), right?

OLE is an anti fungal, bacterial and anti viral. Yes, it's a pill that I am referring to.

It can be taken with other supplements but not with probiotics. It can be taken with meds that kill off pathogens.

In general, I think it is best to take meds alone and supplements alone.

I would think the supplements you are taking at 2:00 are being taken with food, if not they should be taken with food. B Vitamins are often taken at bedtime. They help with sleep.

I was told to take OLE with my antibiotics because its a natural antimicrobial, if you done want to do that you can always take it alone around noon. It will kill probiotics. If OLE interacts with any of your antibiotics or supplements you need to space it out two hours apart from everything just like probiotics. The more supplements you take with it the less it will be absorbed and many supplements interact. How many times a day will you be taking it?

--------------------
"One day at a time"

Current:
-1.2 IM bicillin three times a week
-1.25 IV Vancomycin every day
-IV glutathione and IM B12
-Byron White since Jan. 2011
-ALA, Yasko protocal, Adapten-All, thyrosol, Pekano, phosphalipid exchange, probiotics, oregano...

I thought once a day was adequate. Should I take more?

absolutely!

of course this is from my own experience. if you are only taking one type of antifungal, you can easily take the pill form 2-4 times a day or as needed.

i used OLE in combination with oregano, so I do 2 of each per day to help kill off the fungal organisms--and that is what worked for me.

from personal results, ole was not as powerful as oregamax or fungal defense,

For me, OLE used by itself was virtually useless and didnt do a thing to fight against candida, but everyone is different.

usually its trial and error in finding what's right for you.

probiotics should also be replenished often!
