Your Questions Answered.

I take FermPlus and I feel great, have loads of energy and my digestion is definitely better.
However when I first started I felt tired and grumpy. Was I having a healing reaction?

A Healing Crisis or Herxheimer Reaction is a reaction that occurs when the body tries to eliminate toxins at a faster rate than they can be properly disposed of. This can happen when you start a diet, probiotics, a detox or supplement program.

The more toxic one's bodily systems are, the more severe the detoxification, or healing crisis. his can be characterized with a temporary increase in symptoms – mild or severe - while the body goes through the process of cleaning itself of impurities, toxins and imbalances. This temporary reaction can occur immediately, within several days, or even several weeks later with symptoms usually passing within a few days.

If you intend to go on a cleansing program have a medical check up first and don’t assume if you have symptoms of ill health that you are in a healing crisis: you may have a medical health problem.

Temporary signs of a healing crisis are:-

• skin eruptions
• headaches
• sleepiness
• unusual fatigue
• constipation
• diarrhoea
• or any way the body uses to loosen and eliminate toxins

Good health begins in the colon. Building a healthy population of beneficial bacteria in the intestines is helpful to clean up the system, preventing the build up of toxins which can overwork the liver. Regularly eating Fermented Foods or taking a good Probiotic Powder can be very helpful. Lastly if you are experiencing a healing crisis do not be discouraged, you can be assured your body is making positive changes towards improved health.

It was great to meet many of you at the Coeliac Society Show in Sydney (10,000 visitors) and the Irresistible Gluten Free show in Melbourne (15,000 visitors).

More people are understanding our message - that when you go on a gluten free diet its not just about replacing bread, pasta, cakes, chips and biscuits with gluten free versions. These foods are often even more highly processed and have very high levels of sugar - not good for your health, digestion or waistline! A new diet is a great opportunity to include nutritious gluten free foods in your diet.

Of course we love FermPlus probiotic wholefoods which offers so much concentrated nutrition and 13 strains of friendly bacteria. But it was good to see a few new companies offering health foods low in sugar and high in nutrition.

Five winners
