Guest guest Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 phenols, or high yeast wouldn do that in our house What is causing my son's hyperactivity? Yeast? Ammonia? I can't figure it out. He is very hyper, in constant motion, and "crashing" into everything/everyone. At first, I thought of yeast (he takes zithromax weekly), but then I was wondering if it could be high ammonia? Back in Nov. he tested high for ammonia and I started Alpha Ketoglutaric Acid. Recently, however, I had to decrease the amount of supplements he takes b/c it was becoming a battle. AKA was one of the first to go b/c of the horrible taste.Is there anything else that could be causing this hyper/crashing behavior? Also, any ideas of how to give AKA so that it tastes better? I have tried chocolate syrup, maple syrup, grape juice...he just hates it (and he's usually a pretty good trooper about supps). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 Phenols...I hadn't thought about that. Would oxalates do that, too? Do phenols cause vocal tics, as well? > > phenols, or high yeast wouldn do that in our house > > What is causing my son's hyperactivity? Yeast? Ammonia? > > > > I can't figure it out.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 well he has pandas but we have it under control at the moment. I can tell it is something other than pandas causing this hyperactivity and tics. I am going to keep going with the diflucan but at your suggestion I am going to cut back on the phenol intake and see if there is a difference. I bet you anything that is playing into it b/c he has been eating a lot of apples and berries lately... > > > > phenols, or high yeast wouldn do that in our house > > > > What is causing my son's hyperactivity?
