Guest guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 Dina I'm sure that will answer as well but just wanted to again stress that the only two things that seem to matter for most are dosage and hydration. who has 2 apraxic children 5 and a half and 7 and a half both on NV is going to be sending me an update later explaining the difference between her two sons. Her younger son who was profound apraxia went to mild/moderate apraxia in 3 months on NV (and in therapy of course) and it's written into his report that it must be the therapy and NV...but I want to know any SLP out there in the world who has knowledge about apraxia -and I don't care how much therapy and who the therapist that on therapy alone a child will go from profound to mild apraxic in 3 months! Now her older son was on the same 2 heaping scoops a day- which figured out is closer to 2 and a half to 3 scoops. Her 7 and a half year old is a tall child already and was more mild apraxic- but his surges were not as great as her little one. Her and I spoke and I told her that by 7 or 8 years old many of the parents have gotten approval or even encouragement from the doctor to raise the dosage up to 3 scoops (which ends up being 3 heaping scoops soon after) and see greater surges. She just did that and has a report that she will be sharing again later about the sudden surges her older son just had -and she only raised the dosage up 1/2 a scoop!!! told me for anyone only seeing minor surges as she was with her older son -to consider raising the dosage a bit. Talk to your child's doctor and please note the product is 100 percent water soluble and all the essential amino acids and nutrients are from whole foods. This is why I changed what is written under dosage here http://pursuitofresearch.org/faq.html#dosage Dina it's difficult sometimes the first week or so to get the dosage in to them -but once they get used to the taste it gets easier -and I know I promised you recipes for vanilla NV- can't recall if you saw this page here http://pursuitofresearch.org/serving_suggestions.html And here are a few recipes we'll be adding up to the page soon- and if anyone has more please share Mom Liralen's Yummy NV Butter! Cream a scoop of vanilla NV into butter and make NV butter. It's good as regular buttered toast, or make it into cinnamon toast! The butter is also good on pancakes and won't discolor the syrup like NV does if you mix it into the syrup. More of Mom Liralen's NV tips: You can also put a small mound of NV on bread and rub it into the holes in the bread and then on top of that make any kind of sandwich. For example you could mix chocolate NV into nutella or blueberry or raspberry jam for a blueberry chocolate peanut butter sandwich. When I make the no bake cookies I use the same recipe others use: 1 Tbsn peanut butter some chocolate syrup or honey 1 scoop choco NV But I cream the NV in as I do with making the butter....it takes a while, but you want the peanut butter/syrup to be dry and not quite crumbly. I press this into silicone muffin cups and push m & m's, nuts, raisins, chocolate chips or whatever into the top. I store them in the fridge in a lidded container to keep them fresh and dispense like other treats. The forbidden aspect makes them tastier. I have yet to try it, but I've considered melting chocolate and dipping the formed peanut butter/choco NV mixture into it to make Nutriiveda peanut butter cups. Mom Sharon's Thicker Juicier NV Shakes! We found a brand of juices that are thick and strong enough that they seem to mask the flavor of NV pretty well. My son, -3yrs, started NV at 30mos and he was REALLY picky too. We used either Bolthouse or Naked brand fruit juice/smoothies. They are bold (but good) flavors and are thicker than say, apple juice. Any of their red or blue flavors mesh well with vanilla. You can find them: Kroger: in produce refridgerated area next to specialty salad dressings and pre-bagged lettuce/salads. Wal-Mart: refridgerated section with milk (small small selection though) Whole Foods/Fresh Market: same as Kroger. We also started with 1/2 tsp and worked our way up. It took a week to reach one full scoop. AND, we mixed VERY VERY well. I used the smoothie attachment on our handheld blender. Just somthing more than a spoon. Good luck! Sharon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wise advice from parent Jess if all else fails! " My little one has a lot of feeding issues and he wouldn't take it in any food. I tried and tried. Finally I just started making it thin enough to use a syringe and I just squirt it in his mouth as if a medicine. And because I thought it was so important to give NV a chance based on all the reports here, I felt it was kind of non-negotiable, again, like a needed med. We just sat and waited until he'd take it down. And with in a few days, he grew to like it and now I just put a couple scoops in a bowl, add enough water to make it pretty thin, (if not thin enough, it's sticky like pb and he gagged on it), and spoon it in. I used to offer a reward of a cookie, which he didn't even like, but requested every time, then carried to the compost bucket. The different batches have slightly different flavors and this month I've had to " encourage " him a bit more to take it, but it's really helping him so we just have to get it in before we can go on to the next thing in the day, and I try to make sure it's something fun to be motivating. So in short, my advice based on what worked for us was to thin it enough to syringe it in like a medicine. Good luck, Jess http://pursuitofresearch.org/serving_suggestions.html#Recipes -new recipes to be added soon Also if your child has constipation issues considering mixing the vanilla NV with the nectars (pear, papaya etc.) which is classic constipation advice from my son Tanner's pediatric gastroenterologist Dr. Lawrence out of St 's Hospital here in Palm Beach Florida from years ago -as we haven't needed any help in this area in years. NV makes the child regular too And to Jannette...we do have members from this group that order from Switzerland -maybe I can put you together with them? If you are interested in ordering you would order from this page https://nutraeasy.com/pursuit/order_pursuit_intl.html (international page) instead of https://nutraeasy.com/pursuit/order_pursuit_new.html What is NV in brief? a 100% natural whey isolate protein shake with added whole food nutrients from slow growing ayurvedic vegetations (fruits, leaves, roots) that with each shake provides one with ALL of the essential amino acids needed per day as well as all the nutrients one needs per day and 100 percent from whole food sources which is the purest and most easily digestible form of supplementation. There are no added vitamins and minerals -again all nutrients in it are 100 percent from whole food sources and the entire product is 100 percent water soluble. In addition every single whole food in nutriiveda is individually tested to be free of any heavy metals, herbicides or pesticides. This is important to note because if lead is in the soil it will be in every aspect of the vegetation and nutriiveda contains all slow growing vegetations. The amalaki tree takes 15 years even before it produces it's first fruit! Nutriiveda is 100 percent gluten, casein, fat, sodium, caffeine free and once again 100 percent natural. It would be considered by our FDA a product that is 100 percent food as again the nutrients are all from whole food sources. Here is the ingredient list which can be found here http://pursuitofresearch.org/ingredients.html If anyone has any other questions please ask...I just can't wait to get this validated already because it's a no brainer this appears to be working for most everyone's child. ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 Thanks for update--I look forward to seeing what happens w/NV and nate. How long did it take before you saw results--I know you started in July--so it has only been two months---pretty awesome!
