Guest guest Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 You asked for advice on how to increase his appetite. Try Marijuana. JUST JOKING!!! Hope you laughed! mom2liamh <mom2liamh@...> wrote: We started bringing our 2.5 yo non-verbal PDD son to a DAN! doctor back at the end of October. He's been on the GFCF diet since that time as well (he was technically on it since August, but at the advice of a pediatric GI dr., we put him back on a gluten containing diet - bad move!) and the dr. started him on supplements & enzymes. Since then, more has been added to his daily regiment of pills - he's up to 7 different kinds now... plus cod liver oil. Anyway, I've been seeing a lot of posts from people using the Houston Enzymes, and most people seem to be quite pleased. I'm just curious if this is something I should check out as well, or is our current regiment doing the same thing? Here is what he's taking currently: Digestase - dietary support - 2/day GI Flora - probiotic - 2/day Magnesium Potassium Taurate - 2/day Mineral 650 - 2/day Zinc Picolinate - 1/day B6+B Complex - 2/day - I can't get him to take these due to the smell Multi-vi-min - 2/day - ditto 1 tsp Cod Liver oil - 1/day I have to say, when we first started we noticed a big difference in his energy level, and he seemed to be very happy - which he generally is anyway. Since then, things have leveled off and he still seems to be doing well. I'm just curious if there is something more he can be getting from different types of enzymes. We have another dr. appt next month, but I wanted to get advice from some parents first, before talking to the dr. (He's not the easiest guy to talk to, I'm afraid). Does anybody out there have any stories or advice to share? Are we doing too much... or am I missing something? Also, our boy is not a big eater, so I question whether or not to give him enzymes more than 2x a day... is there something that can increase his appetite?
