I am sending this on to n Kane, who is a fatty acid expert, she will

answer your questions about EFA and why they are not converting after a

yes, buy a reverse osmosis machine, usually at your home stores for around

200.00

Hi Kathy, In reading your article on Iron overload - I had the following

thoughts:

-during pregnancy I drank coffee - I seem to remember that this interferes with

Iron absorbtion.

-she does have a low grade fever when she is having sz's and I find that a dose

of paracetamol brings her temp down and temporarily stops szs. This would

indicate a compromised immune system I gather?

-she has an enlarged frontal horn - I wonder which neurotransmitters this is

associated with.

-has responded *immediately* to pyridoxine and to EFA's on separate occasions -

leading us to believe we'd found our miricle.. only for sz's to return after a

few months despite continuing to supplement. At one point her diagnosis was

'pyridoxine dependancy' and she was the talk of the hospital. Similarly when we

started with flax oil.

-I need to get a copy of her hospital notes so I can check blood levels etc...

can't believe I haven't done this already.

-she doesn't have a lot of typical iron rich foods - doesn't like meat and there

is no iron in her supplements - could be a deficiency?

Thanks for the kick up the arse Kathy... I had become quite despondant... I now

see I have other avenues to explore. Thanks so much.

Thanks Kathy - I appreciate it.

How do you stop your kids ingesting fluoride when it is in the water supply? Is

there a filter you can get for taps?
