Mineral Supplementation

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

We have decided to chelate our 2yr 10 mon old son.We have been doing

bio-med for a good 6 months now and he is stable on all his vitamins,

minerals and other supplements. Our new blood work is awesome

compared to his baseline (where he was low in almost all minerals,

amino acids, had huge exposure to toxic metals , leaky gut to name a

few )

His gut health has improved tremendously. He has a lot of good

bacteria, less imbalance and no bad bacteria. Mineral levels are nice

and in the 50-60 percentile for most . Is it okay to begin chelation

now ?

My DAN doctor uses TD-DMPS (buttar protocol). I spoke to him about my

desire for using Andy's protocol and he said that is fine and he

knows Andy and has no issues with it. He wanted to make sure the

mineral supplementation was adequate since my son was really bad when

he started and we have struggled to get him where he is .

Just to clarify my understanding on the protocol , TD-DMPS every 8

hours (3days on 4 days off). Start with low dose . Is this right ?

What about Mineral supplementation on the on-days. What is the best

time to give it on the on-days ? I saw one of Andy's mail in the

archive saying minerals should never be stopped .

Sorry if this has been discussed. I wanted to make sure i get the

facts right before starting.

Thanks in advance for all your help .

Kavitha,

Don't say sorry for trying to get your facts straight before you

start. It is the smart thing to do. And great work so far with

your son. It sounds like he's come a long way already :-) and

you're more than ready to begin chelation.

I don't use TD-DMPS but the idea of dosing every 8 hours is to have

a steady level of chelator in the blood. So, given that, it won't

matter when you give the minerals, as long as you divide up the

doses throughout the day since the body can only absorb so much at

at time (Andy's recommendations are in the supplement file at the

end of the file if you've not seen them yet).

I use oral chelators and try not to have the minerals in his stomach

at the same time as the chelators, but that is a different situation.

Best of luck with chelation. Keep us updated :-)
