Guest guest Posted December 11, 2001 Report Share Posted December 11, 2001 Michele, The hyperness in the beginning that eventually subsides is more common with the Peptizyde, not the Zyme Prime. I would consider waiting on the Pep until you figure out if he is intolerant of something in the ZP, since this is an unusual reaction to it (I do know of a few that had difficulty with it, though). Another option is dropping the ZP for now and starting slowly with the Pep. You can always stay the course with the ZP, but I would probably go slowly with the dosing. Is he on any other supplements, particularly vitamin B? If so, has he been on them less than a month before starting enzymes? This is an important factor, too. > So maybe it's better to just keep going, not back down, & get through it > quickly... > > He's very hyper right now on 1/4 of HN-Zyme but maybe I'll go up anyway. > Should I just up it to a whole one at each meal or is that maybe too much? > > Also, when about did everyone add in Peptizyde?

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Hi , He's not on Vit B but in the past month has started omega 3s & CLO. He was on colloidal silver for 10 days but that's over now. He's been on his probiotics a good 2 mos now. I added some extra folic acid in the past couple of day for hyperness; no help, that's for sure yet. Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Since he's been on probiotics for a while, even from the beginning of the diet when we saw initial improvement, I think I'll keep up with those for now. The EFAs & CLO are new though, so that could be a culprit as well. I think I will stop those for a few days & see how he does on the enzymes without the oils. This poor child - seems like he's my little science project as my husband said. And I was never good at science - ugh!

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Thank you Patti, , , Dana, & everyone (sorry I forget all the names) for your support, especially during this which is probably the most challenging time of my life - & of 's.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Michele, You have several options. You could stop the ZP while staying on all the other supplements. You could stop or reduce the omega 3s and CLO and stay on the ZP to see what happens. You could reduce the ZP and go slower or stop it altogether and try the Pep. If you didn't see a significant improvement from the omega 3s and CLO, I think I'd drop those for awhile and try one of the enzymes (my unmedical opinion). I know we've had some parents report their children could not tolerate EFAs or CLO. I would be curious to see what happens if you drop them while continuing with the ZP or starting the Pep. Good luck deciding what to do! > Hi , > He's not on Vit B but in the past month has started omega 3s & CLO. He was on > colloidal silver for 10 days but that's over now.

I have to provide all kinds of evidence before he'll let me try anything on poor #1 boy. I wasn't great at science either, and kind of wish I hadn't nodded off in there. I remember thinking I would do anything in my power to never ever set foot in a chemistry class and I certainly wouldn't need that stuff some day. Oops. Be sure to let us know how it goes.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 --Michele, Just remember we are all going through this together and are all in one stage or another. My son reacts terribly to efa's. He was agressive and tantrumy on fish oil and flax oil. The only thing he tolerates well right now is enzymes,calcium, magnesium and pro-biotics. We tried a multi-vitamin and eventually that started to get to him as well. I know how you feel.
