Guest guest Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 Peptizyde is what I use Wait a few more weeks before you try this as you may get quite a dramtic reaction in the form of die off of bugs. Waiting a while gives some more time for healing to take place and to chip away at any gut bug issues. Pep will also help with viral issues. Why are you planning on doing this in particular ? Mandi in UK In her book, DeFelice talks about taking proteases between meals in a smoothie or drink. Would I give the Peptizyde or Zyme Prime since they have proteases or a seperate protease product.

Would I give the Peptizyde or Zyme > Prime since they have proteases or a seperate protease product. Peptizyde is the strong all-protease product. Use that one for between meal protease benefits. I put on in my drink and just sip on it all day. Usually one drink in the morning and one in the afternoon. Some products recommend around 4 capsules at a time. Copious amounts are given for more severe injury or healing. A fibromylagia group I was in discussed 45 capsules a day as a good dose. You can play around with it and see what works out best. I just don't want you to be afraid of going much higher. >>>>> Also, I am giving Peptizyde and Zyme Prime at the same time right when he starts eating, is that right? Absolutely correct. Enzymes themselves can be given together. Sounds like you are off to a great start. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 My son is 3 months old, his birthday is 11/8/05. I noticed his flat spot at about 5 days old and it has just continued to worsen with time. At his two month visit my wife had me push to have him seen by a cranio facial plasic surgen at Children's Boston. The Dr. said to have our son helmeted for 6-10 weeks as at this early of an age helmeting is short and very effective. Adding to that my cousin is the Chief of Plastic Surgery in the Rockville MD area however he does not do pediatric work. He also recommended the helmeting at an earlier age rather then later. is now on his 4th day with his new band and it doing very well with it. We are using photography to track his progress as the day to day change is going to be very subtle if you are with the child every day as parents are... With regard to the different types of bands, another doctor who is a personal friend and an ER pediatrition as well as a research doctor specializing in pediatrics stated that the treatments are all very similar and one helmet isn't necessarily better then another. So long as you are seeing results you are doing the right thing. I can not answer the questions about other complexities as the plagio/tort are our sons only symtems in addition to minor facial asymmetry.

Rick, Is this the same doctor you spoke of here who thinks the homemade NOPCO band is better than the STARband? I assume not, but I wanted to clarify.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Different doctor. This doc is/was my parents across the street neighbor who used to work for Hasbro Childrens in Providence, now works for Childrens Boston. With all the questions raised here I called him to get his " inside " scoup on Dr. and NOPCO. Youv'e already read his comments.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Group, I just recently joined to learn more about LDN. I was diagnosed with MS over 4 years ago. I started on Avonex and had several exacerbations, so I recently switched to Rebif. My symptons are mitigating fortunately. My main question is can I combine LDN with Rebif? If so, what are the risks, and is anyone currently on this type of combination therapy? Thanks for any input. Raleigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Hi Raleigh, No, the two are not OK together. You could use copaxone with LDN, but not Rebif. Would you like me to send you a copy of the welcome e-mail for LDN?
