Lauricidin

Yes, I take it, but as Monolaurin from Inspired Nutrition, which is the same thing. I take it because it kicks my butt. By that I mean that it targets Lyme, Candida, lots of viruses such as EBV and I think it is mildly effective against Bartonella as well.

I have been on it a few times and each time it gives me such a huge herx so I know it works great. I learned to take it a few pellets at a time and ramp up slowly, it's the only way that I can tolerate it. I am now taking a cup full of it. The cup comes included which is the size of maybe a tablespoon.

about 30mgs per pellet. They vary in size a little.

Okay. I did it. opened a capsule, sprinkled some in watet and swallowed. I'll know tomorrow if it caused a reaction.

Then again, I also took 5 extra drops of houtty and ate a clove of garlic today, neither of which I usually do.

UPDATE Mon 7/30/18:
I took some 3 days in a row. Still haven't finished a whole capsule. Felt unusual tiredness yesterday afternoon. Also have had slight surges of pain in top of head, increased sound sensitivity, irritability, revved up feeling, nervy feelings going through my body when awoken by noise. I'm wondering if it does something to bartonella. Feels like it. Aside from the tiredness, those are all prior herx symptoms for me. I do have viruses and myco, too.

Some say you have to eat them right after a meal so that your digestion slows down enough to absorb them. Or you can chew or crush them up a little before taking them.

I saw many people say the pellets just went straight through because I guess they saw them in the toilet maybe? I've never experienced that but I do chew them a little before eating them sometimes. I don't think they taste that bad. Kind of hot tasting.

I updated my post above after 3 days using monolaurin.

I've been feeling almost normal a lot of the time, and I almost never get herx reactions, but recently I switched from the cheap brand of monolaurin (I think it was solgar or solaray) I was taking to the Lauracidin brand.

I'm only taking 3 or 4 pellets (the full dose is a whole scoop full of pellets), but I'm definitely noticing a significant increase in brain fog and I am much, much sleepier than I usually am. It seems like very strong stuff.

The brain fog always makes me very weird to talk to. I start conversations the same way all the time with whatever idea I happen to grab onto first, which isn't usually very relevant to what the other person is saying.

Wow, I took the max dose of lauricidin and got nothing. Maybe it's because I was already doing pretty well on antibacterials. But I was really hoping to have these strong reactions people are reporting.

I'm pretty much symptom free and I just take a few things in addition to the inspired nutrition monolaurin (1 scoop). Cinnamon, boron pill, olive leaf, one pill a day of each and diatomaceous earth (1 teaspoon). Oregano oil occasionally.

Inspired Nutrition product literature also claims it has some effect on Babesia as well. I wish there was solid documentation that it has an effect on bartonella and babesia.

I have reflux though it seems mostly gone now, i am under the opinion that all my throat problems are from yeast/candida issues.

dbwilco, out of curiosity, are you taking 2 or 3 scoops per day.

thank you, do you recall any noticeable benefit or improvement over say 3 scoops versus 1 or 2 scoops.

It takes a few months to fully take down some of the symptoms. I went through 2.5 months of "unpleasant" herxing. My symptoms seem to line up with bartonella mostly but I haven't tested positive for anything.
