Hello Orelindel,

I actually did remove almost all of my son's supplements when he

started having seizures again. I kept the enzymes, probiotics, and

melatonin. I wanted to get some sort of baseline. We're now

introducing them one by one to see if we notice anything.

That is very interesting. Have you ever run tests that would show

her nutritional levels? When you were using supps that made things

worse, what kind of worse would you see? My son rarely has a big

reaction to anything and I really struggle trying to understand if

I'm seeing anything at all. Or worse, to understand if I'm missing

stuff.

Oh, that is good news! For me, those foundational kind of

improvements are the most important. They allow you to build more

progress. I am very happy for your whole family, especially your

daughter.

Thanks so much for your kind words and helpful thoughts Orelindel. I

hope your daughter continues to progress :-)

Gratefully,
