Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 This is actually good, it means he is regaining a part of his brain use that allows him to notice and identify smells. My son went through this too. He was never bothered by smells that should have bothered him. Now he is like the rest of us...saying..ewww..what is that! And my kid don't sit still either! But after a year of chelation he is starting to sit for longer periods of time at a meal! > > Hi all, > > My picky eater has now added smell sensitivity to his bag o' tricks. > He never used to be bothered by food smells.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 > > Now he is at the point of not being able to sit at the table while > other family members are eating. My daughter started this last year too! It started all of the sudden after about 1 month of chelation and then doing a 2 day high dose vitamin A protocol. Just one day out of the blue she got really agitated about others sitting at the table at dinner. Ever since then she refused to eat at the table with the rest of us. I always found this very odd because she's an extremely affectionate child and loves to be with other family members. It was definitely associated just with the eating, but I'm not sure what brought it on. This has been well over a year ago and I still haven't figured out what caused this sudden change. She still won't eat meals at the table with us, but she can sit up at the bar in the same room and doesn't get agitated. It's one of those things that I'm hopeful will resolve over time.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 This is my experience - that it may be a good thing...tho' I am not chelating - the " better " I get, (zinc and/or selenium seem to be what does the trick for " smell ability " , for me) the more I am able to smell & taste...it has taken some getting used to.... even normal smells/tastes can be overwhelming, and downright unusual... " that's what it tastes like!? ewww! " has gone thru my head fairly often... I also now pay attention to my " smell ability " & when it goes down, I up my zinc/selenium/e supps. (and blueberries...blueberries work for me too)...I have gone on many hunts in the past six months or so, looking for a smell...and it has only been about that long that I REALLY can smell things...thought I was - NOT!... I really really love that I can smell the rain again - it is and has always been one of my very favorite smells...hadn't really noticed the loss... elizabeth > > > > Any thoughts? > > > > Pam > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 > > Why lysine? It is an anti-viral and I learned a few weeks ago that my kids require it to address certain viruses that were not addressed by OLE, Virastop, and vitamin C.

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 He was probably hyposensitive befoer and now that is normalizing but seems overwhelming to him until he gets used to it.

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Basic multimineral, P-5-P, oral mB12, zinc, milk thistle, C, basic multivitamin, EFAs, oral DMSA and oral ALA. Aside from the multimineral, multivitamin and Vit C, the other supps are sporadic. I need to get back on track with the supplements. Selenium, probiotics, GSE, FolaPro, calcium and OLE are all things I used to use regularly, too, but dropped when I hit my 2006 Holiday Season Wall of Pity.
