Guest guest Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 I don't know how many have hit it but there are 18 members. Wish there were more! But have directed one mom there and she got her son off Miralax only one day after being put on it. Well, that's what she told me anyway. She's a friend and I hounded her...maybe she just said that to shut me up! Great Job Tracie, how many people have hit the site?

Her doctor is having her take an ENTIRE bottle of Miralax tonight to prepare. Scary. PEG is a polymer made up of identical ethylene glycol subunits. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is made from ethylene glycol (ethane-1,2-diol), the main ingredient in antifreeze. When ethylene glycol (molecular weight, 62.07) polymerizes, reacts with itself (in water), the reaction yields a variety of products containing varying numbers of ethylene glycol units. These products are all called PEGs. The general molecular formula for PEG is H(OCH2CH2)nOH, where n represents the number of ethylene glycol units contained in the PEG polymer. PEGs have many industrial, food and pharmaceutical usesRead more: What Is Polyethylene Glycol? | eHow.com http://www.ehow.com/about_6369028_polyethylene-glycol_.html#ixzz1gTHW52MQFrom: Anne To: miralax Sent: Tue, December 13, 2011 10:58:39 AMSubject: Lemon juice natural cure for oxalates & renal calculi The renal toxicity from PEG seems to be paramount.This quick fix of drinking lemon juice/lemonade needs to be shouted to the world.The sad thought of all of the children who have taken a dose or two of Miralax at some point in their life, developing kidney stones later in life is another medical scenario we look to physicians to fix. The conundrum will continue to line the pockets of those most ill equipped to address the problem. Western medicine has let us down in so many ways.The major human adverse event related to high PEG exposure is renal toxicity. Renal toxicity has also been observed in the monkey at high dose, indicating that similar toxicities occur across species (Fruijtier-Polloth, 2005). http://dmd.aspetjournals.org/content/35/1/9.full Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
