Guest guest Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 The chlorine certainly could have been a trouble. We would shower Jamey and then put him in an epsom salts bath. Lucky us, we've found a non chlorinated pool nearby to continue his swimming lessons~ red cheeks Does anyone know why my boy's cheeks would turn red when I haven't given him anything different? I don't think he is sick. One thing, we took him swimming this weekend, would that do it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 My husband puts on some magnesium sulfate cream on his back before going in the water, showers him good with some soap that I bought him from the health food store, and puts another layer on his back after. I can't bath him in epsom salts, because he drinks the water. We took him swimming on Saturday, and it is now Monday night, and his cheeks are still red. I haven't fed him anything different. I don't know why else they would do that. Amber. On 1/16/06, fantsea@... <fantsea@...> wrote: > > The chlorine certainly could have been a trouble.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Have you tried using activated charcoal instead of the epsom salts? You can actually go back and forth. I give my daughter the activated charcoal when I can't give her the baths. She does tend to get more constipated with it though.

The epsom salt baths, taurine, and increasing the yeast protocol, I have read help the most kids http://www.danasview.net/chlorine.htm Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 i know that some yrs ago, when my son was taking swim lessons, he would literally drink gallons of the swim water with all the chemicals, etc. tried very hard to stop it to no avail. i was extremely concern about the damage it was doing to him (the chemicals) as he has major detox problems as it is. so, i decided to stop the swimming until further notice. i have heard that it is really impt to teach our children how to swim due to increased drowning incidents. so, me stopping swimming was an individual choice. im not telling anyone to do that. i might add, my son was swimming laps in the pool before i pulled the plug on the lessons. so, he can swim! anyhow, the chemicals in the swim water can cause big problems in chemical sensitive individuals, not just autistic children. esp if they drink the water. vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Dana, I believe that my son suffers from phenol intolerance.....I give him an epson salt bath every other night (started off every night) and during the first week he started speaking ALOT more.....25 new words in a week! Doesnt that confirm that he suffers from phenol intolerance??? His cheeks still get red intermittently and I havent been able to figure what is causing it.....could it be phenol foods during the day???? thanks natalie (son was dx in oct 2006 w/pdd) > > Are there any medical tests for PST? > > > GPL announced a test a while back, but I don't know how effective it > is.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Hi-My name is .I am new here. I am considering enzymes for my PDD son. He will be 5 on the 22nd of this month. I am interested to know what phenol foods are as my son occassionally gets red cheeks. I have been attributing it to the frigid weather here in NJ.

Yes, one of the signs of phenol issues is red cheeks. http://www.danasview.net/phenol.htm Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 My daughter never could handle juice of any kind. Not baby pear, white grape or any other. There is research that shows the double dose aluminum they are now using as a preservative in current vaccines is shutting down a pathway in little girls, and causes them to dump a lot of sugar, without utilizing it appropriately for fuel. Meaning, a little sugar amps them up enormously but then dragging them ridiculously low with lovely mood swings to boot. red cheeks Hi all! I know RED grapes are high in phenol but what about white grape juice?? i gave my daughter a little of white grape juice diluted with ALOT of water and a tad of apple juice (i'm trying to wean her off apple juice). she drank it without hesitation but has pinkish cheeks. behavior wise - no change. what are your thoughts?

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 All this red cheeks stuff. I have to share! I'm the world worst alcohol drinker. I feel terrible. I get all flushed, tired and want to crawl into bed. And I only like the fruity drinks that don't really taste like alcohol, like a strawberry margaritas. I had one a couple years ago, got up to leave and handed my husband the keys because I felt to dizzy. Got home and had such a headache, YES ONE! I might say I'm no small person too. Also allergic to sulfa meds. I find this so amazing!!!!! Tammy red cheeks Hi all!

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 For my kids, this was also a yeast thing....it seemed for any reason...if I gave the kids any kind of juice it was almost an instant flare...I don't disagreeabout little girls and their sugar utilization...it was just a double edge sword for us. We were juice free for a long time....years. After 35 rounds of chelation it is some better...but the yeast is still a big big issue. hope this helps Ronni > > Hi all! > I know RED grapes are high in phenol but what about white grape > juice?? i gave my daughter a little of white grape juice diluted with > ALOT of water and a tad of apple juice (i'm trying to wean her off > apple juice). she drank it without hesitation but has pinkish cheeks. > behavior wise - no change. what are your thoughts? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
