OPC liquid versus capsules

[Guest guest]

In theory the capsules should be every bit as effective as the

extract. The reason I prefer the extract is that is what has

established a track record of success (outside the powdered Anvirzel)

while the capsules are still relatively new.

 

Until I see some long term successes with the capsules I will continue

to prefer the extract. Once Marc is able to document successes with

the capsules I will wholeheartedly recommend them equally as much, if

not more, than the extract. As it is, I am not at all saying to not

purchase the capsules, just being conservative and preferring the

proven form.

Why? Is the liquid more effective? or does it get faster results?

Is it absorbed better? Marcia

resultsin diarrhea, I would recommend using the liquid form (which I

prefer)and if you have problems with that, try additional filtering.I

have used a very strong concentration of oleander in amounts up

togreater than the maximum doseage, but which I also filtered

anadditional time with a few layers of coffee filters, and I have

neverhad diarrhea. Looser stools, yes, but never diarrhea.It should be

noted that those who did not filter the homemade " soup " as greatly in

the past normally adjusted to all of the relatively mildside effects,

including diarrhea, in short order as they worked theirway up from 1/4

to 1/2 a teaspoon all the way to 1 tablespoon threetimes daily.If you

take the capsules over a long period of time and do not adjustto them,

I suspect that something may be causing it besides the largeorganic

compounds found in the liquid that has not been

thoroughlyfiltered.Tony oleander soup , " lewis "

same problem. I willcontinue to use the OPC along with my other

supplements (did notchange any supplements when I started on the OPC

), but I make sure Iam close to a bathroom and if I am going some

where the next day, I donot take the OPC the night before. I did stop

using the second bottleuntil I got back to normal. I started using it

again until I used upthe bottle the bottle, and the problem returned,

that is when I wentto the capsules and I am using 4 capsules/day. Jim
