O/T:melatonin and typical adolescents

[Guest guest]

I get very anxious at night. I make myself a mug of StsWort tea (with 1

teaspoon of herbs), let it cool down and put in a bottle. From there I fill a

dropper bottle. I use between 1 and 4 droppers before I go to bed, add a minute

amount of honey and a little hot water. This helps me calm down and go to sleep

easier.

[ ] O/T:melatonin and typical adolescents

Does anyone have any opinions on a typical healthy female adolescent

child--12 years old--who has anxiety issues-- who has had good success with

1.5 mg of

melatonin to help her sleep? The melatonin really works well but everyone

from the pediatrician to the local pharmarcist has cautioned the parent (my

sister) about giving melatonin to an adolescent girl because of the usual

hormonal

changes.

Thanks,

I would recommend that you get the 12 year old's hormones tested (saliva) before

quitting the melatonin. Best test is from ZRT Labs (www,salivatest.com). Also,

if she has gone through puberty, I would consider giving her natural

progesterone cream - after hormone testing. Progesterone cream (which can be

purchased over the counter) really helps anxiety & other emotional problems.

Our environment is awash in estrogenic pesticides & hormones that contribute to

anxiety (and many other problems) if NOT balanced with natural progesterone.

This affects men, fertile women & children, not just menopausal women. Using

the cream bypasses the Cytochrome P450 liver detox enzymes which most of our

children are already deficinet in - so don't let any doctor talk you into taking

pills or synthetic progestins which make emotional problems even worse.

Check out Lee, MD's website at www.johnleemd.com. I would recommend that

all women read his books, WHAT YOU DOCTOR MAY NOT TELL YOU ABOUT PREMENOPAUSE.

Most of the progesterone a woman makes is when she ovulates. Due to our

environmental hormone toxins, many young girls and women do NOT ovulate (you can

still have periods and not ovulate) so they don't make enough progesterone.

Also, fat cells produce estrogen in men, women & children and their bodies don't

make enough progesterone to balance the excess estrogen. That's why overweight

men & boys have " boobies " . Also, beer is estrogen. You can take the Hormone

Balance Test for men & women at:

Janet, I think this [natural progesterone cream] is what my 18yr old needs too.

She was freaking out (swearing, throwing & breaking things) and out of

desparation I put some progesterone cream on her and she was a totally different

person within an hour. Could you tell me what brand of the other product you

mentioned you use. [CALCIUM D-GLUCARATE which restores the body's ability to

remove excess estrogen that gets blocked by an enzyme produced by over 500

species of gut bacteria. This helps the phase 2 Glucuronidation liver detox

pathway.] Andy Cutler mentioned that to me a few months ago when I told him I

thought she was having seizures [progesterone cream also helps hormone related

seizures] and I haven't been able to locate it. Thanks again. Michele
