"Thanks Pat! That was really informative to help me figure out whether what I did was a disaster!
However, it doesn't really matter - the first batch seemed to turn out pretty well, but then when I went to brew my second batch, everything went…"

"I forgot to clarify, that you are correct that *too much* kefir (at one time) could also cause die-off of microbials in the gut, releasing dead microbial toxins. But, not the same as releasing mercury when killing off candida. Any large shift in gut…"
"Thank you :-). Very much. "

"Oh wow! Learning so much here, thank you for your original question Tracy, and for clarification, Pat.
I too am a nursing mother and have been worried about mercury mobilisation and dumping toxins into my son's milk. To this effect,…"
