This may be a silly question . . . .re: ProEFA

[Guest guest]

As I have written before, we are in the process of getting ready to embark

on the introduction of the ProEFA for our son (3 years, 5 months). We were

waiting for the holiday break to possibly do this, but, yet again, our house

has been hit with the " germ " bug (fortunately this time basic headcolds (so

far).

Now my silly question, should ProEFA not be used (or, should you discontinue

use) when the child is sick and/or taking medication (Dimetapp, prescription

cold/cough medicine, etc.). I saw someone note they stopped the supplements

when their child had the flu and this is something I have been thinking

about as we were getting ready to introduce the ProEFA.

Thanks . . . and a Happy New Year to all of you!!!

My daughter does not stop taking ProEFA when she is sick. However,

when she started the ProEFA, she got a cold and then a series of ear

infections. She was having lots of temper tantrums, and it was hard

for me to tell if it was due to the ProEFA or if she was sick.

So, we stopped the ProEFA and waited a few months until after the

cold and flu season. She then had no problem with the ProEFA.

Good luck!

Hi Debbie,

I had mentioned on list that I had stopped the supplements with Quinn

when he had the stomach flu, only because he wasn't keeping much

down, and expecting him to keep fish oil down was sort of out of the

realm of possibility. (clear liquids and soda crackers is about the

extent, and we wanted to make sure THAT stayed down).

When he has a cold or a bug where nausea isn't an issue, we continue

to supplement.

Hope that helps!
