A question for Andy Cutler/ your suppl's & Amy Holmes suppl's

[Guest guest]

We've been trying to avoid bad side effects by using the necessary supplements (along with our 10 yr. old autistic son's chelation/ using 100 mg. DMSA & ALA every 3 hours for 3 on 4 off days). Andy, we read an old post where someone asked you which supplements you personally used.....I noticed: lecithin, TMG, choline, arginine and foreskolin, which are different from what Holmes or Cave have on their general list for Mercury chelation. May I ask you how these help you? In what circumstances might they be appropriate for kids who are over 10 and chelating?

Lastly, I noticed that hydergine is used for improvement of mood. This is exactly what my son has problems with. Sometimes he sounds depressed and sometimes he is laughing all over the place. What might be effective for kids over 10 who have such mood fluctuations? I noticed that

one person has mentioned Vinpocetin.....is that similar to hydergine? Can hydergine ever be used for a 10 yr. old autistic/mercury toxic child?

As always, thank for all of your help. We really appreciate it.

we read an old post where someone asked you which supplements you

Support methylation. Most mercury toxic people need this. A few get

worse from it.

>arginine

Improve growtho hormone levels. Children generally don't need to do

this.

>and foreskolin,

Increases cyclic AMP, and thus energy, mood, motivation and hormone

levels. THis may or may not be good for your kid. People are brand

sensitive so if you want to try it you switch brands if you don't like

what it is doing.

Vinpocetine and hydergine have some similiarities and some

differences. I don't know of any reaosn hydergine can't be used in

children, but as it is usually prescribed for things like alzheimer's

you might have fun finding a doc who will Rx it. Or you can get it by

foreign mail order.
