I started the Q Sciences Q Core yesterday and I was surprised to feel some slight change in my body. Although it was minimal, after taking the AM packet I was delighted to feel more alert with some natural energy besides the low dose of caffeine from my decaf green tea. I definitely felt good and I noticed I didn't feel as tired as usual so that's a plus! I was able to concentrate on the tasks I was doing without brain fog and just felt generally a bit happier than usual :)
At night I took the PM packet after dinner and I must say I definitely had a stronger reaction to something in that combination. I'm suspecting it was the probiotics. I felt a little bit headachy and then my GI tract was going crazy. I wasn't sick to my stomach but I felt like a lot was going on in there and I might need to use the bathroom. It was borderline uncomfortable for a few hours but nothing crazy. These are good symptoms though despite them not feeling good. This is because it's a signal that my body really needed the extra help and I have a lot of things that need to get out. This would be referred to as "die off" when bad bacteria or parasites get destroyed so the resulting effect is headache and unpleasant GI sensations or gas. Overall I'm really excited to see what the next week brings! These seem like some quality supplements so far and they are absolutely a power house. The real challenge will be to see how well they help me through my PMS bc I am six days away from my period. This is usually when my skin gets really inflamed and irritated and I start to get gassy and bloated and moody! So let's hope the supplements can help 🙌
