Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 I can't take it all in, in terms of remembering every little bit, but as applies to the autistic kids therefore many lymies and others with chronic infections: 1) methylation defects leading to impaired ability to quiet viruses and make new dna 2) heavy metal, esp mercury, also lead. metals coexist with chronic infections. strep, herpes and rubella, she said something about the same receptor taking all 3 in. she has seen strep boils in kids as they detox heavy metals 3) glutamate is the big baddie here, too much is a nasty excitotoxin; upregulated by strep and i'm sure lyme (she actually did mention lyme, good for her). i haven't gotten to the direct supplementation advice yet but its clear you need to supplement with glutathione--its always low when glutamate is high. 4) glutamate the gun, calcium the bullet that actually causes neuronal death. magnesium reversibly inhibits the calcium so, supplement with magnesium 5) green tea helps too but she didn't explainw hy yet (guess its the theanine i mentioned a few days ago) 6) she's big on niacinamide, helps protect trytophan therefore serotonin and melatonin, also is antibacterial and she said anti lyme guess i should start supplementing with that 7) dependng on your genetics, too much b6 might increase the excitotoxicity so start slow (I forget why) 8) she likes nadh because the body uses nadh to recycle glutathione, supposedly. i however never had a good reaction to nadh. but others might want to try it? avoid glutamine, stuff like msg, hydrolized protein, any malted products, she has a list in her book apparetnly, all these are glutamate/excitoxins I'm definitely going to start neublizing with glutathione. I already get IV magnesium I guess I'll investigate b3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
