Chitosan question

[aidansmum]

I started taking Chitosan a couple weeks ago and I've read that you should have certain vitamins when taking Chitosan, but Vitamins are not ok when swaying pink. So, my question is, is it safe to start Chitosan this far before TTC (about 8 weeks) or should I stop it and start again the two weeks prior to TTC? I don't know how long it can be taken safely without the recommended vitamins and I don't want to compromise my health. Your input would be great! Thanks.

It's safe to take without vitamins. It saps nutrients and fat from the food you eat (helping your pink sway) but this won't do you any harm.

in the (very) long term it can deplete you of fat soluble nutrients A, D, E, K but this takes quite some time to harm you - the average person has years of these nutrients stored in the body fat. that warning is for people who take the Chitosan for years as a way to keep from gaining weight.

Thanks girls! Don't know what I would do without you!

Mine says to take no of longer than six months at a time.

Is this something I can find at a place like Walgreens or Walmart? Do I need to track it in my daily totals? How much/when are you taking it? Sorry for all the questions...I had completely missed this element in my sway! Thank you!

Hi. I bought mine on a health shop but I know they sell it on ebay. I am not sure if you can find it at Walmart, at least not here, but I am certain they sell it online in most health/vitamin shops. I am having it according to recommended dosage. 2 pills 3xday, 4 hours before OR right after main meals with 250ml of water. It shouldn't be hard to find and hopefully not too late if you want to incorporate it into your sway. for us!

I'm sure they have to put that on for legal purposes.

I prefer that you guys get pg within 6 months anyway so it's all the same to me.

only need to use it with a meal containing fat

use package directions

May be hard to find at Walgreens, I got mine at a vitamin store (I didn't use it for swaying, used it for weight loss)

Thank you...is this something I would stop using after O, in terms of safety?
