    @strategist, you've been gluten free while this happened? And were you on a heavy anti biotic before this kefir episode? I had to take a huge dose of Fluoroquinolone type antibiotic some 2-3 months before the kefir use.

    Levocetirizine dihydrochloride (Xyzal)

    @Allele, thank you so much for this reply. Very good idea to reduce the dose in the beginning. I took my dose just 5 minutes ago. I can halve the pill tomorrow. They are tiny but have a dent in the middle, obviously for halving them. I can not quarter them as the pills are so small. Half a...

    Opinion piece: "McMindfulness: Buddhism as sold to you by neoliberals"

    Mindfulness can be helpful in some instances to a minor degree. But to present it as a cure is pure con. It is not even the decoration on top of the cake. Its sugar dust while the whole cake (health) is missing.
