Why do Kolorex® Capsules make me feel unwell?
Occasionally, it has been reported that some individuals may experience a
felling of nausea after taking Kolorex® Capsules, particularly for
the first time. This may be due to the naturally hot Horopito (similar to
cayenne pepper), or it may be due to a Herxheimer (yeast die-off) reaction.
This feeling is usually mild and transient. We recommend however that if this
feeling persists, that you consult your health care professional.
I used to be able to buy Kolorex® Capsules in a different form.
