Guest guest Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 i find you need to consider minerals in conjunction with enzymes. a hair test is helpful. also please read up on skin vitamin d these kids are just starving for it 'skin vitamin d' and 'minerals i take' in the index of http://mueller_ranges.tripod.com/links/compendium/compendium.html he will have yeast issues and a leaky gut. the skin vitmain d and oral vitamin d is basic to try and get some of the immune reactivity down so the more potent fruity enzymes can be tolerated. molybdenum, selenium and magensium are intial minerals to look at on that 'minerals i take' page. > Hi, > > I am probably jumping the gun, as I've barely started the Peptizyde, > but... > > We started with Zyme Prime, and went slowly.

That was a good idea -- it lets you know pretty surely that the AFP is causing the circles. > Are there big adjustments with Peptizyde, after taking ZP for > four weeks? Yes, there can be. The Pep targets completely different food than the ZP. If your son has major issues with gluten, casein and soy, like lots of our kids do, then " removing " them from his diet via AFP can cause die-off. We are a start-low-and-go-slow family, but still I think maybe you should consider a little Pep with at least one meal per day, then two meals, then three meals, because I wonder if the on- again-off-again approach you explained above is actually making his adjustment more difficult. Like he has to re-adjust every morning when he gets it, cuz the day before he didn't get it. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son had about a one-week adjustment period when I added the Pep to the ZP. You might find that ZP works well for your child without having to use the Peptizyde. That is what I eventually found for my family. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
