Guest guest Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 Hi, We started enzymes about 10 days ago. We started with Zyme Prime (a dusting) and I build it up to 1/3 or 1/2 cap a meal (3x a day) - on this only, my son was doing a lot of noise (verbal stim) and we saw a little bit of aggression. About 4 days after we started GABA (morning) and Cod Liver Oil (mid afternoon) - He was doing SOOOO WELLL, with behavior. About 3 days ago we started Peptizyde for lunch and dinner, first a dusting, today we went up to 1/3 cap. All together, this are the supplements he is taking a day: 1 cap. GABA 1 cap. Zyme Prime 1/2 cap. Peptyzide 2 caps Kirkman's CLO (about 2500 units Vit. A) He gets really silly, impulsive and aggressive about 1 hour after taking Peptyzide. Yesterday he stole a piece of chewing gum. Everything that I ask him to do, he answers NO!!! Even keeping his seatbelt fastened is a challenge now (this kid used to insist on everyone using a seatbelt!!!) I know this may all expected, but could it be that we are moving too fast with the enzymes and supplements? Other than behavior, his stool seems so much better now (less " flat " ). Today he didn't have a BM yet (we upped Peptizyde yesterday) which is also " normal " . I am thinking that I should give him activated charcoal, but don't know HOW MUCH??? Would it be a pill after each meal, or before each meal??? Or should I give him more GABA (supposed to help with the impulsivity!) Thanks for your help Coral SCD (almost 8 weeks) J (ASD, 9y/o) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
