Kudzu Update?

Hello,
 
Ive seen a few post here about a pill form extract for Kudzu.
 
Ive looked into it as something else to try but I would really like to get the input and feedback from those who are using it and how it continues to work for them.
 
Someone had gone 2 weeks with only 1 hit?  
 
Has anyone tried it and it not work?  
 
I was skeptical of the whole Redbull thing till I sucked one down and then hit after hit it stopped em dead.  
 
So if your are trying or been using please post here the good and bad.
 
Thanks,
 
Marine1

Hi Marine. I haven't used it in a while...but here's a collection of most of the early kudzu testimonials. There are links at the beginning of the thread to a bunch of other threads. Hopefully, newer testers will be along with more info.

when i first started taking it, it helped a lot. it immediately made my pain less intense. the longer i took it, the more it helped. i had to get on a routine with it. then it ended my cycle. i think i grew immune to it though. this cycle it hasn't helped at all. i was taking a small dose daily, for about four months in between cycles. when this one hit, i started taking more kudzu without any results. i may try again once i've been off of it awhile. so i guess i would say use it only when in a cycle, and then stop when you're in the clear.

I took it for 9 months...
 
It worked great for me.   Justa little info....I took Nature's Way...I took 2, 3x's a day without fail.  Important thing is take it at the same time every day.
 
The first couple of weeks on it, I got some pretty bad hits.   After that, my hits were far less severe, and less in number.
 
It appears to have had a long lasting effect for me.   I quit taking it Dec of '05.   I'm able to control 100% of my CH with 02.    What hits I get are still less intense...and they've been farther apart than ever.    
 
Kudzu doesn't work for everyone....but it's the best thing I ever took for my CH.
 
Wishing you lots of good luck....and lots of PF time.

Hi,
 
Last Fall after my cycle went "on"! I decided to quit taking any meds except Zomig spray to abort the one that woke you up at night to switch to Nature's Way Kudzu at a doseage of (2x) 613mg three times a day and it reduced my attacks from (1x) Kip10 a night to about 2 a week! It had better result on me than Verapamil that i took 2 years ago when i got diagnosed!
 
Since my 2 last cycles started exactly at the same date a year apart, this year i've started to take it a week before the date from last year so we'll see!
 
A lot of PF day is the dream of every CH!
 
See ya!

Sempre Fi Marine 1!
 
I've been chronic for about the last 3-4 yrs.  Started taking Nature's Way Kudzu 3x a day about 5 mos ago.  Within a couple of days I saw a significant decrease in the level of hits and in about 2 wks they were gone!  I've been basically PF for the last 4 1/2 mos now with only an occasional breakthrough of a shadow.  I haven't had anything higher than a K3 in 4 mos.  For the last month I have cut back on the dosage to 2x a day with out any significant difference.  Haven't had a Red Bull in over three months other than to try to stay awake to drive.  (That doesn't even work for me anymore Sad)

I don''t know who it was that discovered this works for CH, but I owe you a big one!  Also to Nani for her work to educate us about it.  Hope to meet you someday soon and express my thanks personally!

Kudzu rules laugh
Up to date no sign of the Beast... Some small shadows not even close to the kip scale!
 
Diagnosed periodic, 3 years ago, i've tried meds like Verapamil, Imitrex pills/nasal and Zomig nasal... I discovered Kudzu 1 year and 1/2 ago but did not feel the full effect because my cycle was already started... Undecided
This year i started a week before my cycle was suppose to start and by the grace of God it kept the Beast away... Still feeling the sour neck but i could deal with that for the rest of the cycle with ease! Grin
 
For me 2 pills 3 times a day did the work, that's the maximum intake recommended by the company so i tried the full intake to start and noticed a change after only 1 week! Shocked I recommend to try the Kudzu root extract pills to anybody that i know who have to deal with the pain we suffer when in crisis!
 
Lots of pain free days to all of you!!!
