Allergic Reaction?

[goodck]

Hi Shelley,

I've been following the slow liver flush protocol along with the candida protocol. Have been taking the following:

cal mag capsules 3 x per day
acidophilus a.m.
kefir with 1 T. lecithin
protein shake w/ 1 T. lecithin
800 mg. malic acid with 2 meals per day (I have some burning in my chest with them)

Today after lunch I took 500 mg. of taurine. With dinner I took it again and in my soup I had 3 T. of nutrional yeast flakes. Shortly after I had a horrible reaction. My face, knees, hands and elbows all turned bright red and began to burn. My chest started burning inside. It was really frightening. Did I do something wrong? Am I doing too much? What should I do at this point?

Thanks,
Janie

hello!

The reactions you got, the burning might have been the 3 tbl of yeast flakes you ate. There is plenty of niacin in yeast flakes and niacin is known to give you a "flush" in the small blood vessels. I had the same reaction after I had taken lots of yeast flakes, several tablespoons and I had the same reaction.

Stick to one tablespoon of NYF, it's very strong stuff!
