Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Sorry, Tim... I meant to send this to your email, but it got posted instead... Re: [ ] Nutriiveda and sleep Yeast. I agree with Ms. . has lots of things going on. Here's one possibility: the antibiotics kill all her gut flora. A desert is created which, if the antibiotics are paused for awhile, allows a bad bug to grow and (1) infect the ear, and (2) manufacture some drug that makes her a bit hyper. I describe my daughter, who I think has such a yeast, as manic at times. Mania, bloated belly, flickering attention span, wacky headstands, fits of running nowhere, babbling non-stop to nobody, chewing all sorts of objects (including poisonous ones), increased hand-wringing/stimming -- and waking up in the wee hours and ricocheting around her room while I dream of sleep. If your daughter has a yeast problem, I've read it may cause bad digestion via excess mucus secretion in her gut. I cook with virgin unrefined coconut oil, give my daughter pears rather than apples, give her some S boulardii, peel fruit and steam or nuke all vegetables and nuts, do many of the things listed for a GAPS or Specific Carbohydrate diet ... and wait impatiently for her systems to heal and quiet down so giving Nutriiveda doesn't make her life so complicated I can't identify her patterns. Good luck - Tim Stearns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
