Guest guest Posted June 15, 2001 Report Share Posted June 15, 2001 Rose: I would cut out ALL sources of manganese. Which I have done for my son. this will cause problems with most chelation protocols...Citramin II contains it....so I have resorted to individual minerals, etc. Very difficult (and, for us, impossible...) to get the entire suppliment protocol into him each and every day doing it this way. But it is worth it. Do you have a pool? High copper and manganese is VERY TYPICAL in most pools...copper from algaecides, etc. Our local Swim Shop just started carrying a " Pool Water Chelator " !!!!! Takes out copper, manganese, and two other typical minerals from the pool water. Also, they carry a pool stain remover from the same company that removes mineral stains/deposits from liners, tile, etc. Just a thought.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2001 Report Share Posted June 15, 2001 My son also had high manganese from the Doctor's Data's red blood cell test. The report spoke of " manganese madness " with symptoms of euphoria, hallucinations, and inappropriate laughter. This scares me a little because my son does seem to be somewhat like this. Meg ---------- From: rfeurer@... Subject: [ ] high manganese Date: Thu, Jun 14, 2001, 2:27 PM Has anyone ever heard of high manganese being a problem? Lab reports from Doctor's Data test of red blood cell elements I just received showed highest levels of these for my 5 year old son Ben. They alerted me to articles about neurotoxicity for this because it was so high. What chelates this? Is there a problem with detoxing if one has this? They mentioned liver problems. I can't figure out any sources for this for him, not on any manganese or other vitamin/mineral supplement with high levels of manganese, so it is alarming. Thanks.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2001 Report Share Posted June 15, 2001 Thanks! My son goes swimming 4x a week. wonder if this is the culprit. It's a pool that doesn't use chlorine, but rather uses a hydrogen peroxide-based cleanser. Does anyone know of any dangers therein? I thought because it wasn't chlorine, it would be safer. > Rose: > I would cut out ALL sources of manganese.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2001 Report Share Posted June 15, 2001 Hydrogen Peroxide IS MUCH SAFER...and, from what I hear, therapeutic. Our pool had a hole in the liner (due to extreme moisture from rain) when we went to open it for the season. I am hoping, when the liner is replaced, to convert it to a safer hydrogen peroxide solution...just have to research exactly how that is done.
