Please respond to

I'm trying again because I have not rec'd any responses yet. Could

someone PLEASE show me where to read about Vit E supplementation for

apraxia? I've read of the different doses that people here on this

list are giving but I'd like to read the reasons why and if there is

any research behind it's use at those levels. I've been told not to

give my 5 year old son anything over 300 IU's a day so I'm trying to

research this and so far I'm getting no where. I tried

writing to you privately because it appears in some posts like you

initially posted about this? I can not find the initial posts with

the search engine though. Please, I'm not trying to be a pain in

the neck, I am trying to help my son and when I read articles like

this one:

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/11/10/health/webmd/main654887.sht

ml it makes me very cautious. I am not the type to read of someone

giving 2 400 caps a day and just run out and do it because I read it

on the apraxia list. I was very comfortable giving the EFA's

because there is no indication of possible harm but there is

information suggesting harm at higher doses of Vit E.

Many will come into this conversation late being new to apraxia,

just as I've watched over the past 3 years or so people ask about

the EFA's over and over again. As I said I was without my computer

and missed the initial posts, I'm now asking for information to help

me understand something that can potentially help my son and it's

very frustrating not to be able to find the answers.

As someone who just joined this list yesterday and who is learning about vitamin

E for the very first time (and who tried, last night, to find just what is

asking for here without any luck), I too would appreciate a response to this.

Thanks for any input. I am glad to have found this listserv.

There are no studies on this. At this point, it is 100% anecdotal.

This is not to say that someday there will not be studies, and if

can get some funding, she may start them soon. However, to

the best of my knowledge, there is NO ONE outside of this group that

even talks about giving Vitmain E to apraxic kids.

However, just because it is anecdotal does not mean it does not have

merit - just as the fact that there are no peer reveiwed/published

studies regarding the use of EFAs for apraxic kids does not mean there

is no merit. It just means it has not been medically/scientifically

" proven " ...yet. Our job as parents is to know (guess?) which things

to try while the " jury is still out " on research. Everyone will come

to different decisions on that.

By the way, I can understand why has not had time to answer

you yet. She must be getting bombarded with questions!

There is no research or writings about Vitamin E and apraxia. This is

still in the baby stages so the reports at this point are all

antidotal. Folks aren't disregarding your question, there simply isn't

an answer to provide. The reason that vitamin e came up as a topic is

because noted that the signs and symptoms of vitamin e

deficiency are very similar to the signs and symptoms of apraxia.

Another indication that vitamin e may have a positive effect came from

noting that children seemed to respond differently when they were given

straight EFA's versus EFA's that had some vitamin e in them as well

(I.E. Nordic Naturals ProEFA).

I know it is difficult to do but go through the archives. The vitamin

e thing started being discussed around the 20th of August. From that

point you can get a feeling for the rational, the physiology involved,

etc. I can't tell you to use the vitamin e or not to use it. I can

tell you that asking someone in a health food store is a bad idea. To

get that job you only need a pulse, no training or education is

required. I'm an ARNP and I read the information provided, read some

more about vitamin e through various sources, discussed it with my

husband and made an informed decision. That resulted in my daughter

saying sentences for the first time, having such a verbal explosion I'm

wondering if all of the apraxic symptoms could resolve over the next 6

months and I can't keep up with this child who has gained so much

muscle tone that she feels she is invincible. All of this occurred

within 4 weeks.

Regarding not receiving a response from , I think her inbox is

flooded with questions that she simply does not have the time to

answer. Remember, is here as a mom, not a physician. She

graciously shared her findings with us but we need to respect that she

cannot give us medical advice. The things she was seeing in her son

were just too remarkable to not inform other parents.

Hope this helps a little bit.

Kris thank you for giving me a date to work with to do the search.

Also to the person who gave a link, although it was not the correct

link, giving me the " Vit E harmful " phrase to search with helped

too. Honestly I didn't think of using the negative term, " harmful "

to search the messages regarding a post for something helpful and

this post did not come up when I did " Vit E " .

I do realize that the EFA's use with our children was and still is

rather anecdotal but please note that there was, and to the best of

my knowledge continues to be, no data or doctors indicating possible

harm with their use as there is with high levels of Vit E. It is

the potential harm that lead me to want to research it more fully

and bring the information to my son's doctors.

I also appreciate that is most likely over loaded with

questions and was not meaning to sound critical. I certainly have

enough computer problems that I would understand if she disappeared

off into the ether. I simply was trying to say not to tell me to

write to , as I had been told to do before, because I had

already tried that. Hopefully my being a pain in the neck will get

people reading it here instead of contacting her in private. I hope

that she is able to continue with researching this. I for one am

interested if it will help children that are not low tone.

Below I've copied and posted what appears to be 's post

regarding 's initial post. It was that post that I couldn't

find, and was trying to ask for. Those that are attempting to set

up a FAQ on this, bless you, because it was difficult to get and I'm

sure will be asked for MANY, MANY times.

I hope that people will please remember that we are ALL trying to do

the best for our children. I really am not asking for medical

advice, I was only asking for help with the search on an initial

post. I've been on this list (when my computer is working!) for a

number of years now, I really hope that people can continue to ask

questions without feeling criticized for missing the initial

information, or not understanding, or needing more data or just

needing a virtual shoulder.

Hello,

I was wondering how others are giving their kids the vit E. I've been

giving it to me son along with the fish oil in a juice, or a yogurt

smoothie. I just poke a hole in the capsules and squeeze them in. So

far so good, has doesn't object to it. But I was wondering if there is

a powder form for the particular vit e we're talking about w/ the gamma

etc. Just curious.

I have noticed a difference since he has been taking the vit e, so I

guess I should comment on that. I read about some of the others

experiencing hyperness or bad behavior. We didn't have that, but I did

see an energy that wasn't there before. It's kind of hard to describe

but it's like his movements and timing could be much quicker. Like

when he is jumping on his bed I could see the difference. Plus I could

really see more of his teeth when he smiled! I think he smiled more

with his mouth open before. Now I am seeing smiles with his teeth set

together. Looks great to see that bright smiling face! Makes brushing

his teeth much easier too.

Another thing with his speech since the vit e introduction is that he

started saying Daddy instead of Dadda!! That was astounding, and

sounded wonderful. Plus he is saying Mommy now, instead of Momma.

Last night he said Thank you instead of thanks. I love when he thanks

me, it's such a joy. Also last night he said Bob the builder,

his " Bob " sounds perfect, the rest wasn't but he said it! And that was

probably the first time he has stung three words together.

Have a great day,

mom of Trey, who will be three in December

Dear ,

I was out of town for a week...its taken days to catch up on email,

and you can imagine in addition, how many new messages have posted

on this site. I almost missed this one. Anyway, hopefully some of my

posts today will answer your questions. You will not find anything

to read on vitamin E and apraxia, because there is no data. This is

a totally new observation...and now a growing case series of apraxic

children who are doing better on vitamin E plus fish oil. But if

you google " Merck manual and vitamin E deficiency " , you will see a

nice table of symptoms of vitamin E deficiency. The symptoms overlap

those of apraxia/dyspraxia and SID. This is the table that nearly

gave me a coronary back in July, when I first started to look for

info on vitamin E after ph surged when switched to omega 3

capsules from liquid, only to start to regress again several days

after switching back to the liquid. The only difference in the

liquid and capsules was the vitamin E, and on the high doses of

omega we are using...he was getting only 100 IU extra E a day for

about a week, and we saw some amazing and obvious changes that I

needed to try to explain. So improvement was seen even with small

addition of vit E, but when I started to supplement him with higher

doses, that is when we began our road to recovery. But it was

reading the Merck manual website that made me suspect that a vitamin

E deficiency might be playing a role in apraxia...at least in my

son's case...a discovery that has changed our lives. -
