Could enzymes be causing sleep problems?

[Guest guest]

My 3.5 year old autistic daughter used to be a fabulous sleeper. Ever

since we started DigestRite several weeks ago she has been waking up

at 2:30 every morning and getting into bed with us where she continues

to kick us (as if she needs deep pressure on her legs) and grind her

teeth until 5:00am.

Any feedback would be much appreciated

Thanks!

My son did the same thing when we started AFP Peptizyde. It took

about a month for him to fully adjust, and when he did, he went back

to all his original sleep times (naps and bedtime).

It might be the increase in energy and alertness that enzymes can

cause. You might try the epsom salts baths in case it is part of gut

cleaning or sensitivity to the papain/bromelain (if DigestRite has

those). Either of those might take a couple weeks before going back

to 'normal'.

One thing which might be a long shot, is if she is taking any meds

that affect sleep (SSRSs, melatonin, anti-histamines, etc). The

enzymes might be making the med more absorbed than before.

She might not tolerate something contained in this enzyme product.

Or it might be an adjustment period, which typically lasts about 3 weeks.

This can be a need for magnesium and/or potassium.

My #1 did this until I added cal/mag.
