My son did not tolerate rice, even with enzymes. He did okay with the small amount of rice in the HNI enzymes, but not any more than that. Popcorn was a definite no-no, even with enzymes. But your child might do okay with No-Fenol. The problem with the vitamins is a real sign of phenol issues. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Taurine-an amino acid is calming for many. Liz D. Need help Hi all, I need some input from you all. I have a nine year old autistic son, who is presently on the GFCF diet. I tried enzymes for him last year for about 8 months and did not find much improvement. He is on Calcium, codliver oil, nystatin,folic acid, vitamin B complex, vit C (since about six months), along with Tegretol for seizures (since about 2years) He is able to speak mainly for requests, no spontaneous speech or questions. He is at present in grade 4 in a regular school and goes to school with his own aide. He can do simple math (adding subtraction, multiplication and division, just starting fractions) His comprehension is very poor. Since about two months he has started some digusting behaviours. He is constantly rubbing himself on furniture, cushions and people. Has started touching others on the face, chest and crotch. He has also started screaming when he does not get his way. He screams very loud. I dont want to start him on any medication which will leave him 'drugged' and zombie like. I am lookimg to start him on some other supplements or herbs to calm him and reduce his gross habits. Any suggestions? Thank you all in advance. S.Nag India Education Special: Study in the UK now.

Have you tried giving him a drop of GSE twice a day (in a cap if he can swallow them) or a drop of oil of oregano twice a day....My son does the rubbing thing too, and the screaming, and GSE and OoO help tremendously.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 Sounds a little like yeast to me. There are different types of yeast problems, and the Nystatin may not be having the affect you need. Have you ever tried GSE? GSE can amp up a med. so I'd be careful as far as timing it away from the seizure med. Need help > > > Hi all, > > I need some input from you all.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 No Fenol will help for the phenol aspect of the problem, but not the amine, at least as far as I know. My son also couldn't handle carrots, tomatoes, etc. etc. He still can't handle orange juice, but we gave him a banana the other day and there wasn't a meltdown, just dark circles under his eyes. Either he can't handle the amines, which I suspect or the banana feeds something in his gut that is bad for him, also a potential answer. Either way we avoid orange juice still and that banana was the first in many months. All foods have phenols, but some of them I call the phenol big guns, like tomatoes, cocoa etc. are now well tolerated by my son on a daily basis. Has made cooking and his subsequent health much better. Hope this helps. Need help > Hi all, > > My 3 year old is on SCD for about 5 months.

You need to consider reducing his ENTIRE phenol load, not just a few items http://www.danasview.net/phenol.htm Or consider No-Fenol enzyme http://www.houstonni.com/ > I have pulled banana's from his diet a long time ago because I > thought he might not be tolerating phenols, but he is still > stimming. What sort of stims? I'm going to give him some banana today and see what > happens. His paediatrician thinks he may be sensitive to amines and > saciliates ( I know I haven't spelt that right but hope you know > what I mean). Yes, amines and salicylates are both subsets of phenol. >> Whilst these are present in tomatoe, they are also > present in carrot & spinach. He eats a lot of this. I am loathe to > pull anymore foods from his die. My son did not tolerate tomatoes, carrots, or spinach with No-Fenol enzyme [they are orange/green/red], but he did tolerate most nuts, bananas, apples [peeled], and several other fruits with No-Fenol. > Is there any other enzyme somone could recommend to help him digest > foods with phenols, amines & saciliates. No-Fenol is the only one I have used. But like I said, it did not help with certain foods. You can try removing those foods and using No-Fenol with the rest of them, see if that helps your child. Chelation removed my son's orange/red/green problem http://www.danasview.net/chelate.htm Good luck. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way you put this makes it seem likely he actually does have one, but that he doesn't have a sophisticated doctor. Would you like to go check http://home.earthlink.net/~moriam/HOW_TO_hair_test.html and see if he has a mercury problem or not? Remember, most kids with mercury problems have unusually LOW hair mercury levels. If you have a Hair Toxic Element Exposure Profile instead of a Hair Element Profile you simply don't have enough infomration to decide yet. Nobody with any sense is going to consider heavy metals ruled out without a trial of chelation anyway. Sometimes they just don't show up - lead is notorious for this. > I would like you all to > suggest any doctor or treatment center any where in U.S, I can take > him to find out the underlying problem in him and for treatment.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Hi Doris. I would be afraid to immunize my child at all until she is four or older. To get over chicken pox is easier than to get over autism. I do believe that you should continue with breast milk as it is far more superior food. Candex only works on yeast, so if you see yeast symptoms you could try it. Symptoms are: Night waking spacey Red rind around anus or diaper rash diaper rash if you have any of these for a baby, you may want to treat it. Spitting up (reflux) need to be looked into. I would recommend that you add digestive enzymes and probiotic to her regime on routine basis as will as a little bit of cod liver oil. best, Haleh --- Doris Izuwah <dorisizuwah@...> wrote: > Hi all, > maybe am immaginig things.I have a 4yr old son who is autistic although he > is doing well. > > Now i have a baby who is 9months old and sometimes i do get frightened > about her.she looked exactly like my son when she was born.because of my > son,i had to space her immunization schedule more than required.i feel she > is small for her age,weighs 8kg although she is a fussy eater and throws up > quite a lot after feeds.she does not tolerate mashed food so i had to be > blending her food into a puree.She does not like baby milk so still on > breast milk. > She is about to walk but sometimes when she stands up,i feel that her toes > are curled inwards and i try to strenghten them. > > She had a high fever last week with raised white blood cell count and her > doctor prescribed an antibiotic.I and my husband had to give her probiotic > to be on the safe side > > We live in Nigeria and autism biomedics is not common and most doctors > here do not understand them nor the protocols. what should i do? should i > give candex which my son is on?

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Hi Doris: I notice you already have several posts telling you to stay clear of vaccines. My first child is partially vaccinated and my second is not vaccinated at all. Because you live in Africa where the risks of disease are different than in North America, and in some cases the laws are different as well, I would never presume to tell you how to make that decision! However I do agree that very wide spacing is safest if you choose to continue and I very much hope you have thimerosal free versions of vaccines available and/or can order them (for example if you choose to do MMR, space that into 3 separate vaccines). I am of the understanding that many of the exported vaccines are still not thimerosal free (not that thimerosal is the only issue with such vaccines as you know, but it is a key one after all). With regard to your general question I have a number of thoughts: * Whatever the 'final' cause of your son's autism there were likely contributing causes/factors and among these is probably a genetic predisposition, perhaps an impaired ability to detoxify so of course your daughter is in a higher risk category than someone without ASD in the family. On other lists I encounter families with 1 NT kid and one ASD kid but maybe have run some tests on the NT kid only to find that s/he suffers from some of the predispositions and nutritional deficiencies as the ASD kid - but to a much milder degree. I think you are very smart to think about it now and think about prevention. * Apart from metals in the vaccines, are you sure you have tackled other possible sources of heavy metal exposure for your family (oil industry?) Some of us are at higher risk just by virtue of the industries we live near, the prevailing winds (for example Midwestern plants contaminate the air in East Coast US cities; coal fired plants release mercury, etc etc) etc etc. If you have exposures (even soil) you want to be extra careful and make sure you have a lot of antioxidant support for the whole family * When it comes to heavy metal toxicity that your son has - it is likely it also came from you in utero as well. Many moms have this issue as a contributing factor and the metals cross the placenta and add a risk factor of their own. If you have any metal fillings in your mouth this is a definite contributor. * If your daughter is spitting up after her breast milk, she is demonstrating an intolerance to something you are eating and/or a yeast issue. To my mind, she is showing early signs of " leaky gut " and you can treat that and some of the rest of the things you are worried about should follow. * I don't know of any " test " you can do, but you can look for other things. At 9 months what else is the baby doing? Does she have good eye contact? Does she smile? Is she easily soothed? Is she doing imitative babbling? She should be pointing clapping and waving by 12 months if not before (or at least these are the indicators here - I have no idea whether these are culturally specific but I 'suspect' not). * Whatever you decide to do about vaccines, one thing I DO feel comfortable suggesting is that you hold off until you straighten out her tummy. SO much of the iummune system is in the tummy and, though docs always say they wont give vaccines to immune compromised kids, they don't ever seem to count reflux/stomach upset. If you are giving vaccines at all you need to make sure she is very strong when she gets them. This is what I would do: * I would never feed cow milk to a baby under the age of 2 - and I wouldn't do it AT ALL for a child in a family where there is an ASD child. I MIGHT try goat milk, if there were a safe unpastueurized source, but probably not. There are other ways to get the calcium * Your message implied that you may want to stop breast feeding, but many have found that - even if the mom is somewhat toxic and the baby is not tolerating things in the breast milk of the mom - it is still of great benefit for the baby's immune system for the mom to continue. I am sure you saw the thread this week where moms claimed their kids regressed after weaning. I would make sure you have her tummy straightened out before you decide to stop nursing if this is at all possible. * I am also a nursing mother and I take many probiotics as well as the Houston enzymes in order to nurse my (now almost 12 month old) son who is so far NT and has a great tummy. In addition I do not feed him gluten or casein. I will try him on it eventually - but not quite yet. If taking the enzymes yourself is not a possibility I would seriously consider eating a GFCF diet for as long as you continue nursing. * You say you gave the probiotic for the after effects of the antibiotics and that's terrific, but since she is spitting up regularly you may want to consider giving the probiotic on a regular basis. I do - not because I think my sons stomach cant stay populated with the good stuff but because he has to endure whatever he gets from MY immune system when I nurse. I hope this is helpful. Please feel free to ask me any other questions Josie Daughter - just turned 4 and on all DAN type supplements and now NT) Son - about to turn 1 this week and GFCF and NT so far) need help Hi all, maybe am immaginig things.I have a 4yr old son who is autistic although he is doing well.

She is about to walk but sometimes when she stands up,i feel that her toes are curled inwards and i try to strenghten them.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Also, Doris, if it is helpful or reassuring, your daughter is much less likely to develop autism from vaccines than your son because estrogen is protective against mercury neurotoxicity and testosterone is quite the opposite. So she has a good chance. I wouldn't rush putting her on any other form of milk. Peace, Kathy E. > I would begin taking enzymes and probiotics myself, and then see if nursing her, she holds the breastmilk down better.

My son doesnt know how to swallow capsules.. Is I haven't heard this is a problem. I have seen caprylic acid in tablet form - doesn't appear to be coated in any way, so I'd be surprised if you could not crush the tablets. The other thought I have is that coconut oil contains caprylic acid. You could use coconut oil in cooking and/or melt and mix with food. I suppose it takes a lot of coconut oil to get a comparable dose, but it might help. > this okay? If so , what is the recommended dose ? Does this cause > bad die off's .

In my experience, die-off effects are not so much related to what agent you use, but how much yeast/bacteria you are killing.

I think the problem is that normally caprylic acid tastes quite awful. There is a Canadian product, Caproil by Inno-vite, that has caprylic acid in an olive oil base. It doesn't taste too bad. Virgin coconut oil is a great idea for a lot of reasons, and for me at least it is very powerful. When I tried to use more than about a half a teaspoon at a time, I got some wicked symptoms that I *think were die-off. If you choose to use coconut oil, try to get the good quality virgin kind and start slowly. Tropical Traditions is supposed to be a good brand, and of course there are others too. > > > > My next option is GSE with no-phenol.

I think that GSE can make bacteria problems worse. It clears out Candida, but too much will give bad bacteria free rein. take care René Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For my son, itching meant something he did not tolerate, or viral " die off " . Did you do anything different yesterday? Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B12 and especially B6 made my son VERY grumpy. You could try reducing the dosage or take them away and see if he improves. Nell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
