Re: TMG Digest Number 12036

TMG is tri methyl glycine, made from beet greens. It and DMG are used in place

of methionine.

Simple explanation. I'm sure Andy has info. on it.

-Dana,

thanks for responding!

This board is the very first time in all my reading I've heard anyone

talk negatively about spirulina/chlorella. I'd like some details if

possible! ;o)

What is TMG? (stand for) My son is non verbal, so I am VERY

interested in anything that might bring about speech. He had a

little when he was 2, but it was lost. He is 15 now, almost 16.

Can you use the TMG with DMG? Or is it one or the other?

The protocol we use is the Geier protocol, which with the

Lupron/Leuprolide componet, chelation is done every other day rather

than the 3 days on, 4 days off.

As for ALA, I give it with the chemet, at 300 mg.

I believe I read (on this board or chk2) that the ALA dosage should

match the oral DMSA dose.

Like I said he is almost 16, and weights about 147 lbs. We have had

a lot of success on this protocol so far. He started the Lupron in

Aug of last year, and the chelation in Oct. I believe. He was

extremely aggressive and violent until the protocol. He also had a

long history of self abuse. He only has rare episodes of

tantrums/aggression/SIBs now compared to several times daily before.

(his arm is healthier looking now than it has been in 7 or 8 years,

from him biting it), But I am never satisfied, I want more for my

son. Starting with speech.

we don't have any silver in our mouth...I've had all mine removed a

year ago, but the kids have never had any, never had any cavities.

We did use to eat A LOT of tuna though. Something that is forbidden

in our house now.

Thanks for your help!

Laurel
