Actually, I'm A. You can buy dulse at a natural food store, or in a grocery store. It's often where the fish counter is, in a little bag. It's classified as chollera, or a sea veg. I use it because it's a great natural source of vitamin B12 (I'm vegan), and iodine--great for the thyroid. I guess it's a type of seaweed...lots of enzymes and aminos and great for the brain. But it does clean you out. I don't use a lot of it--a little goes a long way. I might toss it in a soup or smoothie or salad or sauce or any appropriate recipe. I guess it tastes a tad fishy/salty. But, it doesn't cause me cramps or anything nasty. It just adds a certain inexplicable "something" to vegan cuisine. I just notice, though, from journalling and trends in my log that well...if I have a little twice a day, I go two or three times, with painless effortless non-spasmodic ease--no joke! So, I've been testing it for the last few weeks, and I think it's a factor in not giving a poop about the poop so much--except on D daze/weeks--of late. Heck, you could even add a few snippets to a sandwich--just moisten the dulse a tad or
chop it up ultra fine. If anything, I hate a C streak after
D. Note: algae/chollera/sea vegetables ARE NOT LAXATIVES...they are foods--superfoods. I don't think it's ever given me D. You can also buy chollera powder. Chollera, algaes, sea veggies are common ingredients in a lot of green drinks/powders. I am really liking this clean feeling--it's not D...it's just a good clean out feeling. I don't know how else to describe it. Is that at all helpful?
