Jenn,
Thank you . . . can you tell me where I can find the Pau d' Arco tea?
When you say yeast products, are you referring to bread as well? I would
think this is the case. . . also, have you tried eliminating
caffeine? I don't drink too much of it, but I think it may also
contribute to this.
I appreciate your comments!
