Does anyone have full details on the Vivonex protocol that Dr. Pimentel uses in California? My doctor said he would consider me trying it - but wants to see articles, documentation, etc. I've heard it involves 14 days on the Vivonex but also heard you take antibiotics at the same time as well. Has this worked for anyone? Is anyone feeling better?Can someone fill us in or tell us where people not in CA can get the details? Thanks!
