This is some powerful stuff I am finding out.

Anyone been able to have an easy time taking this?

It didn't cause me to herx. Just seemed to keep me stable.

Just started 4 drops/2xday four days ago - no changes yet. Not sure how quickly to build up?!

It was very hard for me to take, I had to ramp up very slowly and never got to the full dosage. Strong stuff!!

Before I knew what was wrong with me but found by accident that I felt better after a round of antibiotic for what they thought might be a bladder infection. The doctors (2 different one - I changed hoping to find help!) tried to pooh-pooh that abx were the answer since I had NOTHING wrong with me. I had to DEMAND abx - I told them I wasn't going to die because of not having them... My sister mailed me grapefruit seed extract to take inbetween the times when I need anx. I took it for about a week or so but had white tongue quickly.... I'm thinking you'd need nystatin & NO sugar to take it!

I've been taking one capsule of GFSE daily for the past 6 months. I don't know if it's helping the Lyme much (im on 3 abx as well). What i do believe its doing is keeping my Herpes Simp I and Epstein Barr at bay.

I think its a great supp if you can tolerate it. No problems with yeast. In fact, i read somewhere that GFSE is very powerful *against* yeast.

No herxing off GFSE but i herx really bad after taking Artemisinin.

I haven't tried this yet but want to. Where is the best place to get good quality GFSE?

I'm beginning to think the stuff I'm buying at the local Vitamen Shoppe really isn't all that good quality!

I've been taking it for a couple of weeks (pills, not drops) and haven't really noticed any difference. I'm sure the drops are stronger?

I've been taking the drops, or the pills, for at least 2 or 3 years; the drops---- 15 drops 3x/day in tomato juice. The pills----- 1 pill, 3x/day with food.

I have no reaction that i can attribute to GSE. Nothing works against my candida-in-the-gut either ( except now rifeing works).

I take it because i hope it's responsible for keeping me mostly well, along with other herbs & supplements, but i have no reactions that i notice.

I've been doing some research on GFSE and have found it to be somewhat confusion regarding the benefits of it.

Has anyone read this article?
