Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Ruth, I have glutathione suppositories for my son. The administration has been unsuccessful. I have heard from friends that they heard great things about increased langauge from raising glutathione level. I have also heard that mercury toxic individuals have low glutathione and because of this they have a high viral loads, EBV, CMV, HVV6 ect. and by increasing the glutathione level you are dealing w/ the viruses. So if that is the case you are correcting a disfunction caused by mercury and the benefits are lowing viral titers but I do not know if this is true. But I am pretty sure your not chelating out the mercury. I think I may get some of the lotion. One thing I do believe. There are no coincidences!

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 > I've since realized my son has MAJOR sulfur oxidation problems. Ruth, How did you determine this? We were using the cream and thought it was helping but I was advised to stop. Any ideas on how to figure out the sulfur oxidation problems would be appreciated.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Ruth - I'm new to this group. I have two ASD sons, who is 7 yo and who is 5 yo. My oldest will not longer take any supplements by mouth, no matter what I do. Can you please tell me where you get your glutathione suppositories? We've tried the lotion, but it broke him out. And, because he's also Asthmatic, we tried an inhalation version, but the stuff still smells like rotten eggs. A suppository may work for him. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Thanks . We do have a couple of local compound pharmacies - traditional and alternative. I'll check around. But if there is already a pharmacy out there that is doing this, I'd love to know about them. Sylvia Re: [ ] Re: kirkmans transdermal glutathione lotion Sylvia wrote: > Ruth - I'm new to this group.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 How did you know your son had major sulfation problems? My son doesn't eat any of the foods that contain sulfur for me to find out. He also gets real hyper if I add epsom salts to his bath. Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks, R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why would he get hyper from sulfate, so it must be the magnesium? Valentina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 , My son gets real hyper with epsom salt baths. The sulfation also triggers viruses. My son has tested positive for stealth virus, similiar to CMV, herpes type of virus. He has benefited greatly from acyclovir, 4x's aday and I recently started monolaurin. You might want to check these things out. nne --- In @y..., " & Jack Rawlings " <jamaraw@m...> wrote: > How did you know your son had major sulfation problems?

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 A couple people asked how I knew my son had problems with sulfur oxidation. First I want to mention he has a problem with sulfites, not sulfates. The way I fist started realizing he had a problem was when I realized he had a problem with phenols. They make him really hyper. And I started to use the Epsom Salts bath to get sulfates into him. The Epsom Salts calm my son down a-lot. Then I tried stuff like MSM and he reacted horribly to it. Plus, he reacted horrible to the ALA, DMSA chelation. One of his eyes would turn right in. He would act as if he was losing his mind, frightened of everything, grabbing his head. This happned with the MSM too. Through some online detective work I found out some kids with Autism cannot do sulfites or they overload on them easily (probably because of the mercury poisoning, I read it screws up the whole sulfur oxidation/detox proces in there bodies) So now we avoid high sulfur foods(oinions, garlic, cabbage)along with high phenol foods (especially bananas, they make him crazy hyper) And if and when I go back to chelating him, I'm going to take it really slow. Really low doses. Maybe even only one day a week or two days every two weeks, something like that. Although I'm not sure if one day a week would do anything but mix things up. That's why I was thinking this lotion is a great idea. It seems to be working well for him. And if it's helping his body to naturally detox the mercury all the better. I just wish I could afford one of those mini steam room type machines to help him sweat it out too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, eventually,somehow you've got to get the mercury out right? I'm just a mom. I'm not a doctor or a scientist or anything. I'm just personally uncomfortable with using these drugs/supplements for my son because he is so sensative to them. I've heard people who have problems detoxing sulfites can have seizures and such if they get too much of a build up of them. So that scares me. My son's doctors attitude is that any kid with mercury tox problems is going to have problems with sulfites. But it will get better over time with chelating. He feels when we start chelating my son officially (not sure if I'm going to do it though) That he avoid sulfur containing foods and we just go slowly, with minute doses. I personally feel that if this glutothione lotion is doing it, even if it's doing it at a really slow pace. I'd rather go with that. But that's just me.
