Re: Need help with Corn Intolerance

[Guest guest]

Yes it is in everything,,, and if you can possibly do it remove the stuff...

gack...

it made our lives miserable for years befoer we found out what was

triggering the violent reactions in my son.

you can get vitamins without corn, including vita c.

here..

We get vitamin C in powder form from the Vitamin shoppe,

the same with B-Complex vitamins..

Solaray has at least some things that are safe in the way of vitamins also.

Read everything... and I do mean everything and if weird things start

happening, reread the ingredient lists of things that used to be safe.

Sometimes they change them.

It is a struggle but ithas been worth it here.

One bright note on the corn issue...

Whole Foods has a house brand of sodas that use cane sugar

rather than corn syrup. " the 365 " brand sodas on the shelf if you

have one near you.

I know it made my boy's day when I found them.

Good luck and keep with it.

Yep, removing corn was the most difficult food I had to remove. This

site has some good info

http://www.cornallergens.com/

I never considered dextrose, but I did remove citric acid.

>>My son is on the Houston Trio but i have read some kids still cannot

consume corn?

Enzymes did not help my son with corn issues, only ALA chelation

eliminated that problem.

Mark - thanks for your input. i did recently discover the 365 Soda, what a

treat for my son.

I will look at the Vitamin Shoppe site and see about replacing some

suppliments.

Did you find over time your son was able to tolerate some corn products? Have

you used enzymes and if so did you find them effective at all.

Thanks again. I appreciate hearing it is all worth it.

Hi there:

My son had major issues with corn as well - would get red under his

eyes and hit. We get a lot of stuff at Trader Joe's - they have

organic maple syrup (no fake corn syrup stuff), soda with cane sugar

(as well as Whole Foods), I make my lemonade with organic lemon

juice, filtered water, and stevia - he loves it. We also buy

organic lollipops off of amazon.com that do not have corn syrup or

aritifical flavors.

When we started the no-corn diet two years ago, I remember reading

on the EPA's website that corn, if it is purchased in non-orgnanic

form, is technically no longer considered a vegetable. It has been

genetically modified so much that it is more pesticide than

vegetable. We have been able to introduce organic corn without a

problem.

Best regards,

Debbie

Okay...

hmm..

the enzymes don't seem to help him with corn, and we are not

too far into chelation yet, so we do our level best to keep it

away from his diet.

I will say this, since he doesn't read this list...

his reaction to small amounts of corn have changed.

I do not know if it was the time without, or the supplementation,

or the onset of puberty, but he went from out of control violence with

corn, to nasty rebelliousness.

and that seems to build up.. I only know this because he was sneaking

things thinking he could handle it last month..

*sigh*

it wasn't til he detoxed again that he could see the way it had altered

his attitude.

I am hoping that as we finish removing the metals from his system,

even that normalizes.

I never thought of trying organic corn.. might do that when I have some

vacation time in case I need to deal with Mr Hyde again.

one thing.. check all your meds too.

I think tylonal has corn in it still,

and then of course, there is the corn issue with most baking powder.

*sigh*

I wish I didn't have to know all this, but I do hope it helps you.

I so very much miss Trader Joe's. We moved to CO from CA two years ago. No

TJ's here yet. I stock up everytime I fly out to CA. I did find Lollipops and

soda at Whole Foods.

I will have to test organic corn when the holidays are over. I am not up for

another several days of regressed behavior... It is really amazing they allow

all this altered food; why would society at large not wonder if food is

affecting our kids.

Have you elimated all forms of corn (ie, dextrose, citric acid, baking

powder?) have you had any success with enzymes. Has his intolerance lessened

over time?

Thanks much.

In my small town....we have neither of those places.....so we went

totally corn free.....if I didn't make it...the kids didn't eat it..

For a treat, I found the safest thing was to buy Mexican carbonated

water....(they seem to have less weird stuff but I hesitate to buy much

because of the limited amounts of quality control) and adding juice

that they could tolerate for a treat... We went corn free for

years...nuttin helped but time....even with HNI enzymes.. We had to

make our own baking powder...they were very sensitive to it...and it

did get worse for a while...now they can tolerate some things...still

not cornmeal or popcorn but a few corn products without violent

behaviors...
