Not too surprising, I suppose. Wonder if something like Lauricidin would help, since it clears viruses and such?

Has anyone tried Dr. Mercola's diet? Was it successful?

I tried South Beach a while back and only lost 4 pounds in 6 months,

Texas,

I'm glad you mentioned Dr. Mercola. I too am interested to see if anyone's tried his diet.

He just also came out with a probiotic that he has supposedly worked on himself in conjunction with a company and he touts it as the best porbiotic out there. Wondering if anyone has tried this.

I looked at the details that I could find, but it didn't look better than Theralac to me.

I do really like a lot of his stuff though, the krill oil is amazing.

Just wondering . . .

Alison

The above link is from Dr Mercola. Check out the Theralac/Culterelle thread for info on his probiotic. Someone mentioned having tried it.

Sizzled....good move! [Wink]

Hi! I've been taking Dr. Mercola's probiotics and I like them much better than Tharalac, which did nothing for me.
Have been wondering about his krill oil... how do you find it's superior to a good fish oil supplement?
Also - new book out - the fat resistance diet by Leo Galland - to combat leptin resistance. I just started it today.

I was a patient of Mercola and he couldn't even find the lyme years ago.

I tried the diet and at the time - no such luck but who knows.
I haven't tried it recently

Homemade kefir is the best probiotic I have used!!

Way better than anything in a botttle. It is live cultured food ........ probiotics in their natural state .......... the way food should be.

Search Kefir on this site. It has been discussed previously.
