JD's persistent URI--is it possible L-lysine is making it worse?

[Reg]

Hi again Hazel:

Glad to hear that JD's stools are tightening up. Hope things are a go for Tues.

I found my SEB today. I think I've had it in the house between 8 to 10 years, and it's the same brand as Longblades - Organic Traditions. It's been stored in its original bag - which is a metallic ziplock - and in an airtight container.

Curiosity got me so I brewed a small batch to check its texture and flavour. Texture was excellent and the flavour was just about non existent and non descript. So I'd say it was good. There was no "best before" date on the bag and I think the powder - if properly stored - could keep indefinitely. The only thing one would have to do is test it to see if it had gone bad.

Sorry about the Holisticats web site. Sandy's site was hacked and she is working at getting it back together. I shall let you know when it is up an running again.

As far as doing the PM bit, I don't mind doing it at all. We've done the dial up before, so we know the frustrations it can cause when you're trying to get pertinent information. And I have the time - I'm permanently out of work - that is to say, retired
