Listener Question

Lara asks:

“I had an awful reaction to Ultimate Flora Women’s Probiotic 15billion, and after reading one of your articles I stopped taking it because I realized that the die-off was way too much all at once. I had migraines and fatigue for 6 days until I stopped taking them. My brain felt like it was inflamed. Now the headaches are almost gone but I feel so sick and nauseous and bloated. I threw up this morning. So I want to continue with probiotics but I’m nervous with what amount I should start with. Can I open up the capsules? And what do I do with the powder once it is open? Also, I read about neurotoxicity and that freaked me out. Could that happen with taking probiotics?

Any help would be appreciated. I’m so glad I found your site, I will be following your guidelines the best I can!”
