Re: How to know if your child does not tolerate vit, probiotics...

[Guest guest]

Hopefully, it is all just a coincidence.

BUT, try restarting the supplements 1 by 1; giving days to weeks in

between starting another to weed out the problem supplement(s).

Intolerance varies from child to child. Some tolerate everything;

others not so much. Some react violently; others are more subtle

reactors. The negative symptoms also vary from supplement to

supplement (B6=hyper; glutathione=diarrhea/cramps; folic acid=sleep

disturbances in our house).

With those multiple vitamins and minerals, it could be just one of

the ingredients that is causing a problem.

Epsom salts can be problematic for some kids. I recall hearing about

pale kids with dark circles??? If she is ingesting the water during

the bath, maybe the salts are giving her loose stools or cramps? I

don't know.

Ah, the fun of figuring it all out. I don't always enjoy the ride...

Add them one at a time and watch for reactions.

The most important thing I did for my son, was to determine WHY he did

not tolerate certain supplements. Figuring that out, caused my to

figure out more things that his body needed. He ended up requiring

almost all supplements, but most of them required precursers.

And some he did not need because he was toxic in those nutrients

[primarily minerals] so addressing the toxicity was helpful.

> Cod Liver Oil

My son did not tolerate this until I did mito cocktail and preloaded.

> Kirkmans Spectrum Complete Multi-Vit

My son never did well on a multi, probably because most of them

contain minerals, and he required carnitine for proper absorption of B

vitamins, vitamin C, and a few other supps.

> Kirkmans EnZym-Complete DPP-IV

I believe this contains papain and/or bromelain, which some kids don't

tolerate.

> Ther-Biotic Complete

My son never really did tolerate probiotics, I used biotin instead.

> Brain Nutritionals Spectrum Support Minerals

My son was toxic in most minerals.

> Epsom Salt Baths

I never used these, I did No-Fenol enzyme instead.

Does she do okay with those, or is she still complaining?
