I use TwinLabs AllergyC and get it from my health food store. Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 Have you tried a vit C from sago palm. Some who don't tolerate others do ok with this. SI was told I should be giving him 250mg of Vitamin C 4x/day. So far I have not found a vitamin C he can tolerate. I am about to try a new one but am not sure he will tolerate that much of it if at all. Will that be an issue if he can't?

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 It is a hard job to find supplements our kids can handle I wanted you to read a paper on line called Understanding Autism by Jepson MD, at cbcutah.com It helped with my confidents that I was doing the right thing... My son has his best days when chelating. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 Have you tried TwinLab Allergy-C Caps? They are buffered and corn-free from sago palm. My sons both have trouble with corn derived products, but seem to handle this one just fine... [ ] Chelation & Vitamins My son is 8yrs old & appx 50lbs. He'll be starting chelation soon & is on multiple supplements. I want to make sure he's going to be on all he should for this. I was told I should be giving him 250mg of Vitamin C 4x/day. So far I have not found a vitamin C he can tolerate. I am about to try a new one but am not sure he will tolerate that much of it if at all. Will that be an issue if he can't? I will be adding in Vitamin E, as was also suggested, which I hope won't be a problem for him. The dry caps I have are 400IU each; I was told he should have at least 500IU/day. What is the max on Vitamin E for a child my son's age & size (so I know how to dose)? Lastly, he gets 250mg (total)/day of magnesium taurate. I was told he should have much more than this, but when I try to increase, even in small dosages several times/day, he gets diahrea. Will he be fine on the dosage he is getting? Thanks in advance, Michele ======================================================= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can that cause issues for some as well? Thanks, Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 Hi, Dr. Jepson is my daughter's DAN! doctor. He is an emergency room doc who works two days a week at a non-profit clinic he started. His son was diagnosed autistic and his wife finally got him to believe that his son could be helped by medical attention. Dr. Jepson was trained (he flew down to see her) by Dr. Amy Holmes. Dr. Jepson is new to this whole thing and he has been doing this whole thing one year or so, I believe. That said, he is young and energetic and willing to try new things. I told him I was not going to follow the Dan! chelation schedule, but I would use Andy's protocol. He said fine and then the next time he talked about doing a study to compare the two protocols. He has been very cooperative. He calls things into by pharmacy if I request them and he seems to be OK with my self-directed stance. Just thought you might like to know more about him. in Salt Lake City Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 >> So far > I have not found a vitamin C he can tolerate. I use Solaray Calcium Citrate Supreme, which also contains Vitamin C and a few other vitamins, and it is the only vitamin C that my son tolerates. It seems to work just fine for us.
