Subject: Re: Vitamin doses I am just sharing the info i got from a professional qualified to treat epilepsy naturally. Yes, 1,600 iu of vitaminE IS alot for a child,as well as the calcium doses are high. That is why i made it clear a child 6-12 is only suppose to get HALF the doses i had posted, and a child 1-5 only gets ONE FOURTH. as neuro was involved and agreed the doses posted are healthy. It is hard to overdose on vitamins. I do not understand how we can push poison a.e.d's in our childrens mouths that cause HORRID side effects, then have a problem with vitamins. If anyone would like sights that explain the outcomes of vitamin depletion due to a.e.d.'s, please ask, and i will look them up for you. Alot of useful info .. .. >>>> I just lived through hypercalcemia with my son, watching for not only seizures but heart failure due to too much calcium in relation to magnesium. Hypercalcemia is frequently seen with certain cancers. I sweated bullets for several days over this very unexpected development as Charlie had been receiving supplemental Mg for quite a while..... Mark's comments are sound and should be considered. mjh http://foxhillfarm.us/FireBasil/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Grace, Sounds about right. Just make sure the form of calcium isn't carbonate (like Coral Calcium) or with magnesium oxide or hydroxide.

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Oh man, they are exactly that. Is that really bad or just that it won't absorb as well as others. What forms do you recommend? Thanks Mark! Grace Mark Schauss <schauss@...> wrote: Grace, Sounds about right.
