I love dandilion in the pill form because I always drop a little water while I'm on them. It gives me a hard look. If I could I would take them all year round. I was just wondering if the dieretic effects of this herb could be bad for me if takin all the time? ------------------ "IT'S LIKE MIND OVER MATTER...IF YOU DON'T MIND, IT DON'T MATTER" John Gotti when asked how he felt about his life sentence Flash� version--> http://www.geocities.com/richmaffei/index.html None Flash� version--> http://www.geocities.com/richmaffei/pages/home.html ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I think so. It's also the main ingredient in taraxatone along with vitamin B-6. I also take 800mgs of B-6 a day and that helps with water retention. ------------------ "IT'S LIKE MIND OVER MATTER...IF YOU DON'T MIND, IT DON'T MATTER" John Gotti when asked how he felt about his life sentence Flash� version--> http://www.geocities.com/richmaffei/index.html None Flash� version--> http://www.geocities.com/richmaffei/pages/home.html ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Yeah I know! Thanks for your concern. They dandelion didnt do shit for me. I am glad it does for you. I will try to get aldactone none my sources can get it. So I will probably try to get it from a Doc. If I can't get the aldactone I will take like 20mg (pill) of lasix 6 hours before contest. I will probably try it like 2 weeks out to get used to it and figure a good dose for me. So I don't get flamed I will clarify. 2 weeks out I will take 1 or 2 pills on that day just to see how I react to it. I will not be using lasix for 14 days [This message has been edited by DREXX (edited September 29, 2000).] ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I switched to regular bottled water the last 2-3 days only. With a reduction in sodium and an increase in potassium that is fine. Send me your contest prep info. I heard you have it all written down! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I have used dandelion before----in order for it to be maximally effective you need to limit your water intake with it.....since you cannot constantly do that, i dont think it would work too well year round....my .02 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Traditional Uses: Dandelion is also known (revealingly) as piss-in-bed. Traditionally it has been used as a digestive tonic, blood cleanser, mild diuretic and laxative. Modern Uses: Do Scientists Know How It Works? Safety: ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
