shipping!!! They gave me a discount but was

still around $45!! to me that 4 days of progurt!

so i googled around to see where else i could buy

it and i found a woman in the US that sells it

I called she is very nice, she knew someone who

was using it with benefit and started carrying

it, she sai dshe uses it and it taste awesome

but she didnt see any benifet from it but she was

already very healthy, eats well no chronic illness issues etc

but others were seeing a great improvment with it

here is her site, give her a call she said she

had some progurt machines she could sell at a

discount which might help a few that want to try

it but couldnt afford to order from AS, her site

www.betterway2health.com/index.html and for

anyone already using it, this will save you on

shipping her shipping is around $4!!!!! thats alot!

she orders it from AS she talks to Robert all the

time, this is the same stuff!! and agian I make


NO MONEY WHATSOEVER I pay what you pay for

progurt i was hoping to give people another


option to save some money!

Not to take away from the great find...but, I was just wondering if Byron S Bell was evicted from Lymenet because he posted a link to a vendor.

You might want to be careful.

Kelmo....what are you talking about!!! I see

posted LINKS all the time to "vendors" ...if i

didnt post it what would you like me to do give

subtle clues to search around and maybe find it

GiGi posted links to allergie-immun and no one

said anything about having her "evicted" I

really dont get some of you on here who throw

a tantrum or have a stink when someone post

something that could benifet someone and

in this case save some money in the process.

SORRY to rain on anyones parade but people make

money anytime you buy anything rather it be a

toothbrush, a LLMD apt, crappy supplements and

guess what even the GOOD ONES that work

make money off of your illness imagine that and anyone that

doesnt get that just doesnt get it! there are

people out there that take advantage and make a

buck and thats not right but i know there were

people on here that wanted to try this who couldnt

afford it and thought this might help them save

some money, thats it...

I use progurt everyday and have had hue overall

benefits including i was prediabetic at 27 and

this stuff has somehow put my blood sugar back

into normal exceptable levels. everytime i post

anything I get flack for it with comments that just

arent benifecial to anyone...I swear regadless of this

crappy illness there are some lymies that are the

most negative people i have ever meet. and i know

other people with other just as bad chronic illness

and cancer that arent that way. You cant post this

dont promote anything or say you take it or that

means you make money off of it and heavn forbide!

so what are we supposed to share on here id really

like to know what is exceptable "lymechat"

discussions maybe its bowel movements or the wheather

I dont know but if someone knows a place for people

with lyme disease where you are alowed to share

and help each other and discuss more natural

approaches please let me know so i can go there becuase it sure as heck isnt here!

thanks alot, as always i wonder why i keep coming back here

Dear Whatayear,

Thanks for the post!!

Glad you put up what you did on Progurt!

Since you made it very clear you get no $$ from posting a link to this woman, I don't see what the problem could be.

I posted a link to Tropical Traditions about coconut cream concentrate, because I LOVE IT! It helped me a LOT when I was taking Mepron, and had to consume 14 GRAMS OF FAT each time! Whew!!

So, please keep coming back, eh?

Love,

Cass A

Thanks, whatayear! Very much appreciated.

This is NOT a violation of the forum rules, though they can be a bit confusing.

Here's the actual order page - looks like the incubator is out of stock.....

I talked to the owner today. Used incubators are selling at $20/pop but will probably run out fast.

She may not sell incubators in the future, just satchets

Do you need a incubator? Can you use an excaliber dehydrator?

These can be used to make 24 hour specific carbohydrate yogurt.. you just time them for whatever time you need.. at temp you need.. and in jar of milk and "grains".

also r62 it has to be thier machine becuase of the specific process with the milk, you have to use long life whole milk pref organic that is the best you can use soy and goat milk but it does have to be full fat and most importantly is that it says ultra pasturized or long life

Whatayear.. thank you. It seems to get started, order from the Progurt company directly then replenish here? The site said "while supplies last."

Wonder if raw milk is out because of competing bacteria, although that has not been a problem with kefir grains.

I ordered from Aus I havnt ordered from this other site yet but you could do either and still get the same help through the progurt company the only thing is you will need the prebiotic syurp and i dont know if she sells that im goign to see if she will start carrying it. she said if she can get orders she will carry it and it would save a boat load on shipping! and quikcer delivery time!

Whatayear, it wasn't a personal slam. Byron was a good kid who was banned by posting a link to something he also didn't profit from.

I wasn't trying to start a war, just saying that the moderators might not care for it.

Hey whatayear,

It's OK.
You were posting that you used a product / service / etc and you liked it or benefited from it so you provided a link to the website. NO problem.

The issue is that LymeNet rules prohibit solicitation. We have seen numerous instances where a user posts a "testimonial" that turns out to be a solicitation ie: the user is profiting by pushing a product or service.

There's a fine line and it is often difficult for us to determine whether post(s) are solicitation or not but, after reading thousands of posts, your post does not appear to be a solicitation.

Take care,

--------------------

R62, where did you see the 'while supplies last' message on the website? I can't find anything about Progurt except on the order page.

I checked our main grocery store - NO ultra-pasteurized or UHT milk of ANY kind (except half and half).

I was surprised. You would think UHT milk would be convenient for farmers, ranchers, and hunters - folks who may not get to a grocery store very often. But no such luck. I'll check the other stores today.....

I don't own Amazon [lol]

WildCondor, you can't culture this stuff yourself. It isn't like ordinary probiotics.

Oh, thanks R62 - I hadn't clicked on the actual product.

Nana, I DID miss your earlier post - thanks very much. That saved me some time digging around for a source.

I couldn't get the e-mail contact link to work on the website so I tried calling the betterwaytohealth lady on Friday. No answer, so I left a message on her machine - never got a call back. Guess I'll try again today.

Meanwhile, I WAS able to find both ultra-pasteurized whole milk locally at one store, and found the UHT whole milk at another store! I did notice that the UHT milk was all outdated by a few days, though, so I'd probably have to ask them to get some fresh product. But still! I'm very happy to have a local source or two for the milk.

I also saw some quarts of goat's milk at one store, and I think it said it was ultra-pasteurized but it was too high for me to reach to be sure. I would like to try goat's milk at some point just to compare.

I'd forgotten about the prebiotic syrup, so that's something that would have to be ordered from Australia. Sounds like FOS or inulin don't work well with the Progurt.

the prebiotic syurp will last forever!! and it only has to be used the first couple of times so its not something you will have to keep reordering.

Whatayear, I don't understand why the prebiotic syrup doesn't have to be continued along with the Progurt.... and I can't find anything on the website about that. Where did you hear that?

Also, I still can't seem to connect by phone to the owner of this website. I'll give it one more try tomorrow.....

This is pretty much the only sugar tested by my doc that didn't feed candida.

Manuka honey, agave both no-go. Sucks because I wanted to use Manuka for biofilms

Whatayear or anyone, I'd still like to know where the info came from that the prebiotic syrup only needs to be used for a couple of times at first....

I've given up on contacting the woman from this website. Maybe she is on vacation or something. I've called 3 times, left 2 messages, told her I would like to purchase some products and that some aren't listed on her webiste, and I've received no response.

I give up. [Frown]
