5 Point Comments - It Helped Me a Lot

For a period, foods rich in fatty acids made my ME symptoms worse. A quarter tsp of ALC completely blocked that effect. Eventually (many months) the problem with fats went away. ALC didn't provide any other benefits.

I followed the doctor's ramping-up instructions but it still made me very ill from the very first dose, with horrible gastrointestinal problems that lasted long after I stopped taking it.
