Re: Michele/was: Re: Chelating a 2yo with ALA

[Guest guest]

Michele,

Find anything he likes that he won't urp back up and isn't likely to cause him

too much trouble, yogurt and applesauce, pear sauce, ice cream, pudding, all

fruit jelly, etc, anything he likes well enough to take.

A lot of kids who are metal toxic have sleep problems, have you tried Melatonin

for sleep issues? Some wake up the first few times, but soon actually just take

the chelators while they are asleep. He may get up the first few times but he'll

soon get tired enough to just sleep right through. I've never heard of a child

who didn't.

We never had a lot of sleep issues, but we used Melatonin for it's great brain

antioxidant value, it really helped her.

The night doses are inconvenient, I'm not going to lie to you, but taking the

chance of them getting more autistic is way worse and giving night doses is the

only way to ensure this doesn't happen. We normally stayed up and gave the last

dose at 12:00 AM, then only had to get up for the 4 AM dose, and then were

usually up by 8 AM.

Best part, she's not anorexic anymore, eats like any other normal child, says

she's hungry and we never, ever thought that would happen, but it's nice, no

more two hour meals with someone feeding her every single bite of food. I'd get

up at night anytime to have that nightmare over.

Good luck,

How did you do that? Mine won't take anything, unless in food he

likes, & there's very little foods he can eat that are " mushy " . He's

highly intolerant of most foods & won't eat mush foods except his

goat milk yogurt (once/day), & some applesauce (once/day; he has

loose stools). I also don't want him waking up at night. Our 13yo

goes back to sleep but he won't.

Thanks, Michele

is asking for redistribution symptoms and worsening of autistic

symptoms that may not be apparent for several rounds. So dose

according to the half-life of Ala or until you figure out some way

to get him to take something more frequently, don't risk it.
