Title: Other positive effects of kudzu
Post by redhead on Feb 6^th, 2007, 11:28pm

I am mainly posting this for Floridian's reaction since I cannot send him a message, but other chemistry/pharmacy experts are invited to reply too. My recent CH episode is gone thanks to kudzu and tapered completely off the kudzu with no problems. However, I noticed that the kudzu also helped with another medical issue and when I tapered off....that issue got worse again. I expected it to help with periodic irritable bowel and it really does, but I also have an eye dystrophy that causes me to have very dry eyes at night. Other supplements that have been recommended for this have not helped me (flaxseed oil, etc.). However, if I take 2 kudzus a day....I find that my eyes are not as bloodshot and don't need nearly as many lubricating drops. As soon as I remove them from my daily regime, the red scratchy eyes are back? The Kudzu Recovery works the best for this and it does have a few other minor ingredients. Any ideas on what is working here???
