Guest guest Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 This is our first week of using soy-free Vit E (Dr. Ron's Unique E) and it is not lasting as long as the only other Vit E that we've used in the past (a combo of Vitamin World High Gamma Tocopherol and Soloray Vit E, both soy-based). He's been on it since Monday. On the soy-based Vit E, I would get 5 good hours before his major seeking behaviors would creep back in. On this no-soy version - we are only getting about 4 hours and at that 4 hour mark - look out, he becomes Mr. Hyde. An hour after his next dose, sweet little guy again. The no-soy is working, but not the same. I'm hoping after this trial of total elimination of soy for a few weeks we can see if he can tolerate the soy oil despite testing positive for soy allergy on skin-prick test and go back to the soy- based version (if for no other reason the cost). > > I have been using a CLO/vitamin E regimen.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Liz, I am fanitical about good quality Vitamin E. I use Perfect E by Len & Joe. Vitamin E - Perfect E 400 iu Comprised of: Mixed Tocopherols 536mg d-gamma tocopherol 400 mg d-delta tocopherol 91 mg d-beta tocopherol 45 mg Tocotrienols (frompalm) 40 mg Gamma tocotrientol 21 mg Delta tocotrienol 6mg Alpha Tocotrienol 12 mg Beta tocotrienol 1mg I give 800 iu daily. Although I cannot speak to why E works so well and which ones work and why, but I can encourage you to check out www.Lenandjoe.com. They are Homeopathic MDs who understand both nutrition and the medical side. Bridging eastern and western medicience together. They have radio shows nationally that you can call into for free ( you will be live on air ) and ask this question. Or you can have a private appt. They really know their stuff on developmental delays such as apraxia and have helped tremendously. You may also want to go back and see if any of their past shows you can listen to. Just a thought. Colleen [ ] Vitamin E assistance needed from E experts...help! I have been using a CLO/vitamin E regimen. It stabilized things and my observations show me it may be helping him absorb Bs better because he is actually confident and seeking out and trying to talk to kids he used to shy away from. It is a joy to watch. The E I use is soy based but I have a no soy E (Twin Labs) that I have used in the past. Today I used it with 1 EFA and got a ridiculous amount of clearer speech.The speech therapist was nuts over his session today so it was obvious. I never got that with Pro EFA and the soy E but I did get it with this E before and only now see that. Obviously I'll test this E and I am getting convinced that E absorption or assistance or something to do with E is part of our deal. I suspected it all along because even on the fluoridated multi he did well and when he was on that he was E deficient in diet. Anyway, I recall a discussion of who processes what Es. Can anyone tell me why one would work over the other besides a soy allergy which I did not think we had? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Colleen, When you say Charlie's speech took off, was he not even trying to talk before this? In reviewing old posts I am trying to be sure I have in diet what needs. Since he was a big milk guy he got choline and plenty of it. He was always trying to talk but there were issues from inability to make sounds and slurring which I believe was malabsorption so I am not ready to add choline or anything else just yet until we get more testing in case it is still in him and simply a matter of getting it where it needs to go. But I am curious what Charlie was like before all of this...did he try to talk? What were his issues before getting diagnosed and beginning this journey? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Liz, I am going to email you in response to this off line with my journal notes that I keep. That will tell you what I have done. Although I have not updated it from The Second DAN! visit. I still need to do this.
