Re: How to detox from Miralax?

[Guest guest]

This is my belief -- these 4 points are linked -- but it doesn't seem they are until you read about it.

ARI found about 20 years ago that high dose B6 and magnesium helped a high % of autistic kids.

B6 is used to mitigate the damage of ethylene glycol poisoning

Ethylene glycol causes oxalate crystals to form - especially in the kidneys -- leading to kidney damage.

Last year a link between high oxalic acid levels and autism was proven by Great Plains Labs

So, given the above, if I was in your sitution, I would give my child B6 and magnesium (Kirkman makes a chewable tablet). I would push water (no fluoride!)Please search for oxalic acid in previous posts for more information.

If you have recently removed gluten, you may be seeing a reaction to that. For some kids it is like coming off of a drug, and I believe the time frame I heard the most was that it would be 3 weeks +/- . I did not see this -- but kept on with the diet because it is supposed to help heal the gut -- whether there is a true inflammatory response to gluten or not -- sort of preventative medicine. I also removed dairy, which I believe made a big difference.

we're not sure the behaviors will ever go away. According to my doctor, they think it crossed the blood barrier of her brain, which would mean brain damage, my doctor has helped me research this and agree's these children are absorbing this more than first thought. Please read over all the old posts and the adverse reactions from the fda that other people submitted.............they will get better with time.............

Wow, that's scary. I'll research the old posts, and I wish you the best as you

try to help your

daughter.

Thanks for the suggestions and info. It's really helpful. I went ahead and

removed dairy,

too. My son was a little better today, so i'm hoping it's the gluten that is

the problem.

Thanks,

I bought a sample sized and used it, but did not buy more. I was

recommending it only as a short term detox solution. It contains

sucralose, so it's not good for long term use.

Note -- it is NOT a source of a great deal of magnesium. Most of

our kids would need additional magnesium supplementation.

Kirkmans sells sample sizes for a low cost.

Be careful with Kirkmans -- read the entire list of ingredients.

I really played it by ear. My son seemed to tolerate B6 quite well,

so I went up to 20mg per day. I had to give him a lot of magnesium

at first -- about 1000mg per day, but tapered off to now -- it's only

300mg per day.

I think Brainchild Nutritionals are worth it for awhile. They are

pricy, though.

I found a ND who does muscle testing and he tested better to SS II

with Pak. The problem is that he's 50 lbs now, so the dose is so

high - both for the $$ and just trying to hide 6tsp per day! I'm

thinking about buying the Herbathione and giving with his capsule

vitamins. I have him on Vitacost's MitoChPower for B's now.
