Dana,

Thoughts on this please -

We've had our son on allergy shots for a year now and I thought

environmental pollens were causing his constant nasal congestion.

It's not better and since I've joined these groups, I thinking it's

caused by milk intolerance. He is constantly blowing his nose and we

have to have tissues w/us everywhere we go or we're in trouble!

Haven't had him tested yet but that's in the near future.

As for improper fat digestion - what are the symptoms and what to you

do - enzymes?

At my house, nasal congestion meant food issues, yeast overgrowth, or

viruses.

My #1 was like this, yes.

My kids required mito cocktail. In fact, my #1's nasal congestion was

caused by " fat intolerance " , or basically improper fat digestion. If

I miss his mito cocktail, his nose acts up.

what's in your " mito " cocktail. My son has been chronically

congested for almost a year now.

I looked at your blog - I'm going to review very carefully. Looks

like a lot of good info. What is GSE?

Im' new to the enzyme thing, so if this is a dumb question please

forgive me....

If there is a problem metabolizing fatty acids wouldn't it make

sense to take an enzyme that helps digest them? Lipase? Is this

the same type of fat?

My son definitely has a problem with EFAs and he has been congested

since March - when we started supplementing.

thanks

I use Lipase (Lypo from enzymedica) to help my DD process the

EFA’s, however one of Dana boys has problem tolerating the EFA’s and she

mentioned starting with EPO (evening primrose oil), then moving on to the

EFA’s .She also said when doing EPO, you need to supplement with Magnesium

as the body uses it to absorb the oil. Otherwise, you will have serious

constipation issues. My daughter has a hard time with the EFA’s as well,

and I just started her on EPO(one drop on her feet) and Epsom salts baths

and made the cream and put on her skin twice daily ( as long as her eczema

is not too bad).

Try a lipase enzyme first, like Enzymedica Lypo. If that does not

help, at my house we needed mito cocktail

If it is a problem with digestion of fats, then lipase would help. If

it is a problem with absorption of fats, which is what my family had,

we needed mito cocktail to correct the mitochondrial dysfunction.

How long does it take to correct the mitochondrial dysfunction?

I don't remember exactly, but probably somewhere in the 12 month range.

Dana - how often did you give this mito cocktail? Is it given with

the EFAs at the same time?

In the beginning, I gave it 3x per day.
