Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 It sounds like your chiropractor is on the ball. He is rigth that mercury is hidden. How and what did you use to chelate your son? How long, the dosages, the timing etc. All of this is vital is whether or not he will regain focus. I would get an eval before school, so that he can have the appropriate supportive therapies needed. You don't want him getting into school and finding he has a hard time because he has some delay that could have been helped earlier. My son is getting OT now and he is not going to kindergarten until next year. But it is catching up his fine motor and sensory issues. Does the IEP address any issues that he might have, that were picked up by a school eval? EFA's are important. Choline, inositol, PABA, all good for focus. As is proper chelation for long enough time. Vitamins and minerals too. > > Hi all, I'm new to the group. My #2 ( 5 year old, 46 lbs. boy) has what my chiropractor calls " aluminum intoxication, " we have come an enormous way and now we are about to jump into kindergarten next year. I have put off getting a diagnosis because we have come so far. He has an I.E.P. which will follow him to kindergarten, after which I may be forced to get an evaluation done. We have chelated aluminum and mercury, although from his hair analysis he only showed high in aluminum. My chiropractor says that is because mercury is so deeply bound it does not always show up on tests. My question is now that we have come so far, what can I do to increase focus. i.e. when I attempt to show Collin how to tie his shoes, he appears to be paying attention but will look up when he should be looking at his shoelaces. We are currently doing 2 - 200 mg SAM-e, 4 - 100 mcg moly-b, 1 packet three-lac each morning, and 1 three-lac in the evening. Should I add some omega 3's for > concentration. I really don't know.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hi Jodie, Was it a DDI hair elements test? Conveniently Andy Cutler has come up with counting rules for this test. Mercury does not generally show as high for mercury-toxic folks but it does cause disordered mineral transport which is what the counting rules look at. Check the FAQs of this list for details.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Thanks for getting back to me. No, unfortunately I didn't know about this website when I had his hair analysis done, I went through my chiropractor's office. I will tell you what I know. Aluminum 2.98 and Mercury .05. Whatever that means according to this particular hair analysis. His magnesium was High so I give sea salt or epsom salt baths every night. His minerals were severely out of whack but I think this was because I tried a treatment of something called Platinum Plus which was an amino acid supplement and I think I may have really messed him up because his previous hair analysis looked great in the nutrition area. We chelated with diluted EDTA and Magnetic clay baths and I was amazed at what we got out of him! As to my question of the Omega 3's, what do you think, is it something I should ask my chiropractor about? BTW, Collin has never been a " gut " kid. His only allergies are food colorings and chocolate (makes him angry) Thanks again. Jodie Shepard Salzer <_Shepard@...> wrote: Hi Jodie, Was it a DDI hair elements test?

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hi Jodi, My 7yr old also showed high levels of aluminum on the hair analysis, with mercury not showing up even in the normal range. Based on the counting rules(that pointed out), he does seem to have an impaired mineral transport. His eye contact was really bad a year ago. It has improved a lot with ALA chelation using Andy's protocol. We are into round 12 with some good improvements and the eye contact being the best we ever remember. Your Chiroprator is right about mercury being hidden. What chelating agent have you used? Madhuri > > Hi all, I'm new to the group.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Thank you so much! I will certainly look into this the next time I see my chiropractor and see what he wants me to do.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 I hope I am e-mailing properly. I'm new at this. Sorry if I am being redundant. We chelate with " Bio-chelate " which is a diluted form of EDTA. I have been out of this for a while but since there are not side effects we use this every day. It contains an oxidating catalyser which binds to the metals inhibiting redistribution, and it is stated to be able to cross the blood-brain barrier. In conjunction with that we use Magnetic clay baths which pull out the metals in the tissues. This I do once a week, I can't do any more frequently or we have attitude problems. I use Three-lac to control yeast once in the morning and once in the evening (especially during full-moons!) I give 2 - 200 mg SAM-e to assist liver and 4 - 100 Mcg Moly-B. We give sea salt baths or epsom salt baths every night. Collin has never been a " gut " kid. I don't think I have left anything out. Thank You all So Much!!! __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 You might consider chelation with an actual chelating agent such as dmsa for a round or two and see if his focus improves. That is what we are using for chelation and my son has very high aluminum. EDTA should not be used for someone with suspected mercury issues. dmsa or dmps or ala or dmsa/ala or dmps/ala for mercury and other metals. On a safe dosing protocol. You should read up on Andy Cutler's protocol in the files. The fact that you mention his trouble focusing and such indicates that he may not be metal free yet. Only ALA crosses the BBB, is that in this biochelate product? Andy does not recomend clays, the often contain metals. He also does not endorse the use of such products as the dosing and such is not steady enough and often they contain questionable ingredients like chlorella that can be dangerous. Milk thistle assiste the liver, not sure I have heard of using Sam-E for that. Usually that is used for brain/moods. epsom salts are fine. Sea salts depends on where they come from. Is he on any other vitamins besides what you list? > > I hope I am e-mailing properly. I'm new at this. Sorry if I am being redundant. We chelate with " Bio-chelate " which is a diluted form of EDTA.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 EFA's are usually a part of the diet but not so with American food and the contamination of our fish supply. So giving these should only help him. And it is not required to check with your doc, I have not seen anyone that did not benefit from adding these to their diet. It might be a good idea to post those hair test on here and have us get a look at what is going on. We can see what the problems are. In the files section look for how to post hair tests. If his minerals are out of whack this may be abnormal mineral transport which is a mercury problem and requires proper chelation, not with edta. And for chelation for a few years. > <p>Hi all, I'm new to the group.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Hiya Thank you for your replies! When we first started 4 years ago on Nordic Naturals it had an amazing affect on his eye contact, that went from 0 - 50% I would say. Over the last 4 years did also try Eye Q, Kirkmans CLO, then Green Pastures fermented cod liver oil. As he has lost many of his autism stims/behaviours I am noticing how bad his eye contact is with strangers and Grandma! He still takes DHA Enhance, Vitamin liquid D3 so I will try the vitamin A you suggest and the Vitamin A again. Thanks again X > > id say fish oil again - arctic sea forever living! it worked wonders for our childs eye contact - well reported to aid concentration so maybe eye contact is similar > > > > Hiya > > Can any one tell me the best supplements to improve eye contact?? > > Thank you X > > > hello high dose vitamin a from biopureurope.com or high dose vitamin d3 from mandimart.co.uk > or carlson cod liver oil > is one of the purest one of these might help > isobel > > > > > > > > > > _________________________________________________________________ > With Windows Live, you can organise, edit, and share your photos. > http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/134665338/direct/01/ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
