Guest guest Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Hi my 4.3 year old has also had a runny nose since 2 years of age, can you please tell me what OLE is? I would like to give it a try if suitable. Thanks Heidi [ ] possible viral issues--questions on adding lysine I have a 4.5 yo NT son who has had a runny nose ever since his third birthday. I did an elimination diet to rule out food allergies and while I did see some improvement with casein and gluten taken out of his diet he never got rid of the snot, and his bowel movements got really soft and oily without the casein and gluten. I also noticed that he had less snot when he was taking a protease enzyme. So based on what I was reading on this list, I started thinking he might have a viral issue that the enzyme was addressing. So I started him on OLE and the snot went away! Even when I reintroduced gluten and casein! Not only that but his corn intolerance (dry cough) went away, too.. So great. His bowel movements went back to normal, too, as soon as I reintroduced the casein and gluten. He did get some bumps on is cheeks, like a slight rash, that haven't gone away. But as soon as I stopped the OLE (he was getting cranky and OCD after about 2 weeks and I thought maybe he didn't need the OLE anymore) the snot came back. So I put him back on the OLE (500 mg three times a day) and I did some reading and I thought maybe the OLE was causing yeast and that was where the crankiness was coming from (a previous trial of Threelac to see if he had candida in his nose did decrease the snot quite a bit) so I added 1/2 cap of GSE daily a few days ago and the crankiness has improved but not gone away. He hasn't experienced any die-off symptoms the way he did with the Threelac (headaches, frequent peeing). I am thinking now that I should add some other antivirals to see if that improves him any. He takes Vit C daily already (about 5 g a day without any diarreah). I have L-Lysine that I want to introduce. So my questions are: 1. Does it makes sense that we are having viral issues? 2. Is 250 mg Lysine a sensible next thing to try? 3. If so, what is a sensible way to space out the OLE, GSE, Lysine, and probiotics? I want to give the Lysine early in the day so I can watch him for reactions carefully, but then can I just give him the OLE in one 1500 mg dose in the middle of the day, along with the GSE? And the probiotic at night? 4. Are there any side effects I need to look out for?

It is best to space out the OLE, several times per day. > 4. Are there any side effects I need to look out for? Lysine pulls out herpes viruses. This means my kids broke out in various rashes [one of which looked somewhat like shingles] and mouth sores, and it did cause a tremendous increase in warts, especially plantar warts, until the virus was gone. When my son no longer needed lysine, giving more made him mean and aggressive, so watch for that. The amount of yeast caused by herpes die off was incredible. I had to give a LOT of biotin and GSE to control it. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Dana, I am so excited! After reading much of your information, I have decided to start a viral protocol this summer with my boys. Which should I start with - virastop or OLE? How soon should I add in the other? Where can I find more info?

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Thanks I have been taking Olive Leaf extract myself for a month and I really do feel much better, its getting cold in Australia and my kids are always sharing there colds with me! I do think the OLE helps me fight off the colds, I think I will tyr it on my kids too. Thanks again Heidi [ ] Re: possible viral issues--questions on adding lysine OLE is olive leaf extract > > Hi my 4.3 year old has also had a runny nose since 2 years of age, can you please tell me what OLE is?

Which should I start with - virastop or OLE? You can start with either, altho I do know several families who had a boatload of yeast with VS but not so much if they started with OLE. >>How soon should I add in the other? Whenever you feel comfortable, and especially make sure you have a good yeast protocol. >>Where can I find more info? Depends on what info you want.

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 > Dana, this confuses me as my son is always nasty when given lysine > so, how do i know if a. he doesn't need it or b. he's yeasty nasty because he does need it I don't really know. I just know that my son was MAJOR nasty when I gave him his prior dose of lysine and it was too much for him. So I reduced the dose. Within a week or so, he no longer needed the lysine. Does your son typically become mean and nasty if he has yeast in his brain? If you wait a month and give him a low dose, like 100mg, is he okay with that? That seems to be my son's pattern, at least for now. I give him a small sprinkle of lysine about once per week, and that is working okay for now.

Cian gets his probiotic/zinc/1 oxypowder in morning After breakfast - the rest of his supps. How do I give GSE? - When and with what+How many drops and how often. I never see a reaction when I give two drops in morning away from everything before everything else and was wondering if I am doing it right. Also how long can you do GSE - Do you only do it when you see yeast behaviours or is there a maintainance dose.I want to get this right before I intro lysine. Thanks Aileen PS The products I have are I have citradel (spelt wrong) in drops. I also have Biocare GSE. > > Dana > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, 8000ug/mcg would mean 8mg. I had to give my son 20mg 3x per day biotin, and during the nasty part of the protocol, also had to add GSE on top of the biotin. Biotin requires magnesium for proper absorption, so you might need to add magnesium for full effect. > Re: GSE.

If that appears to work for now, then you can keep that dose and schedule. > Also how long can you do GSE - Do you only do it when you see yeast > behaviours or is there a maintainance dose.I want to get this right > before I intro lysine. I used GSE almost daily for 4 years, during chelation and anti-virals, and during a few other supplement protocols that tended to increase yeast. It is not good for maintenance unless you are doing protocols that tend to increase yeast. Best to do biotin for maintenance, if it is sufficient to keep the yeast under control. Giving GSE when there is no yeast, will tend to cause a bad bacteria problem. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I need to do tests? for each? Well ..I have done tests and he had all three. How do I know what is what. The lack of sleep and giggling is gone two years now - I put that down to yeast. Verbal stimming- sometimes just on certain toys - is that OCD? which would be caused by bacteria Flapping a little - not at mo Think he is constipated again...yeast? metals? bacteria Rubbing - yeast? So now I afraid to do GSE I really find it hard to decide what is causing what? some behaviours out of the blue when we have not changed protocol etc. He is very calm at mo which I am putting down to intro Adrenal Cortex but still a bit verbal stimmy on certain toys and rubbing.

Usually yeast. > Verbal stimming- sometimes just on certain toys - is that OCD? which > would be caused by bacteria Depends on what type of verbal stimming. My son had two types, and they required different interventions to eliminate them. > Flapping a little - not at mo For my son, this was eliminated with anti-virals, certain B vitamins, and yeast control. > Think he is constipated again...yeast? metals? bacteria Commonly yeast or magnesium deficiency.
