@caledonia Yes, I have your document downloaded, but what I recall is the pills. I'll have to revisit it and look over the liquids. I do recall Johnmac discussing his own titration via Freddd for LCF, starting with the 98, or was it 99?! drops of water to 1 of the LCF.
@ahmo I did take xifaxan for sibo a couple of years ago, but ended up wondering if it had done anything at all. After the antibiotics I want straight for the probiotics and sauerkraut and that's part of my diet still. But what really knocked me for a loop was what in retrospect was probably a methyl-trap or block of some sort where my ratio of Folate to MeB12 was totally wrong--all because of a B-Complex vitamin. Now when I approach the wrong ratio, I really begin to feel it. that happened this week when I transitioned to the Country Life MeB12. The absorption must be lower than the Enzymatic because by last night I had a headache and very tight face. What helped--no surprise--was popping an Enzymatic at night. Twice. But despite some relief, it was not a great night. A great night for learning, maybe, and reinforcing what symptoms mean in my body.
I know both of you rely on self-testing and I haven't reached a point where I trust it.
Well, a good night's sleep would go a long way...
