Last night I tried my first P + B shake..(no Caproyl). I've been on the leakygut/candida diet for 3 months...STRICT!! I wanted to take things slow because I'm apparently very sensitive to this process of regaining health.

I took mixed the liquid Bentonite (1 Tablespoon) with a littel distilled water..then added psyllium (1 Teaspoon)...IT was about 7pm...I ate a healthy meal at about 7:30pm. By 10:00pm I began to experience "die-off" symptoms which I've experienced many times before. Every article I've read about P + B explains that it's purpose is to adsorb toxins..and prevent die-off. I began to experience the "drugged..spaced out" feeling that I've come to know as a symptom of my leaky gut...My face became flushed..my nose became red and swollen..and I had a feeling of fullness in my ears..

I went to sleep feeling completely out-of-it...and concerned..I was totally not expecting anything like this from the P + B.

Has anyone ever experienced a "die-off" from P + B alone?

Did I experience an allergic reaction? I'm really bummed...I spent a lot of money on these products...and I know I need to clean my colon before I proceed with my healing..

I tried to read everything I could about using Bentonite w/ a leaky gut.

Can anyone offer me info/advice? Should I switch to activated charcoal? I've tolerated that in the past.

How can I safely, and gently cleanse my colon??
