Thanks for that piece of trivia. Sad to hear it though! My little one loves

apples. We will experiment with whether this is the culprit for him!

Thanks for taking the time to reply! It probably will help us out a lot.

Hi ,

I feel for you. I want to comment on arabinose. I am 47 had all shots in one day

at 40 (dumb bunny/was overmedicate on pysch meds at the time on top of 14

amalgams, Rhogam, etc). FOR ME, I cannot touch apple anything or I go

NUUTTTSSS!!!!! Just like wheat NUTS. From Andy's site I got Shaw PhD.

book " Biological Treatment for Autism and PDD " , Chapter 3, " Other sources of

arabinose: Arabinose may be found in some other foods in small quantities but

the most significant source of dietary arabinose appears to be apples. "

For myself I had already gone on a strict GFCF diet w/son, but I was still

freaking out occasionally, so continued to voraciously dig for clues. I can't

afford lots of testing, but read this book and found this little nuggat. And cut

out all apples.

I recently had some pink grapefruit soda from Whole Foods by Izze, I always

check to see if apple is anywhere, it was not listed on this soda. And after a

few four packs and moody, moody stuff going on. I had a REAL meltdown one day.

The only thing I could figure was this soda. Called the company, was a bit

harassed, then they quoted me the FDA blurb on what a natural flavor is about. I

said I know don't insult my intelligence, FDA is so corrupt.

Anyway long story short, he said well what are you allergic too? I said you

don't have time for that but APPLE is a BIG one. He said apple is not in it. He

called back in an hour and said I apologize apple IS in it, but not on the

label!!!! ARGH!!!!!

My body knew. So did my X after I was just horrible with him, yelling screamin,

crying hysterical, apple related. So they had mislabeled their product. They did

send me a case of their Pear soda, which does NOT have apple, and I am enjoying

it no problems.

So I CERTAINLY based on you already knowing he has high arabinose, would cut out

ANY apple anything. ANYTHING IMO. I used to love applesauce etc. Don't go near

anymore.

Just my input. Keep me away from wheat, gluten, apple and I am an angel!

Daughter from hell otherwise. I also believe in Bio-Set to treat allergies.

Recently was real headachy, and through Bio-Set found out my amino acids where

all out of whack. No problems with my supplements and Metagenics Ultra-clerar,

etc. now that she treated my aminos.

Good luck, taking my magnesium at night seems to be helping me sleep. And when I

wake up at 2:00 am every night I take a half of mag again. Melatonin doesn't

seem to make a dent with me.

Be well. Peace. He'll get there, just hang on. We're here, usually all night! :

So, a month ago or so we received our lab tests results that the DAN! office had

ordered (stool, urine, and blood) and I met with the nurse regarding them. Even

though he was sleeping 10-11 hours a night and was a happy and behaved guy, the

labs showed very elevated candida due to arabinose being high.
