He is only taking 50 mgs of zinc....if I up the dosage to 100 mgs....he starts grinding his teeth badly at night....this seems quite low a dose for such a big guy....but not sure how to tell if it is something else.

If the minerals don't help, look at parasite cleansing. > > It can be calcium or magnesium for some kids. > > > > Pamela > > > > From: [mailto: ] > On Behalf Of ronnimike > Sent: Tuesday, May 05, 2009 3:33 AM > > Subject: [ ] bruxism....is it always zinc? > > > > > > > > > My son is 11 and weights in at 160 and is about 5'8 " .

Grinding was caused by several things here, including yeast overgrowth and mineral deficiency. The minerals we needed were NOT zinc tho.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 our grinding was probably parasites. After we saw/treated pinworms the grinding stopped. He was also taking minerals at the time he was grinding. pam > > > > It can be calcium or magnesium for some kids. > > > > > > > > Pamela > > > > > > > > From: [mailto: ] > > On Behalf Of ronnimike > > Sent: Tuesday, May 05, 2009 3:33 AM > > > > Subject: [ ] bruxism....is it always zinc? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > My son is 11 and weights in at 160 and is about 5'8 " .

How much dosage would you give of it to a 22 kgs(48-49lbs) 5 year old child? Yeast control, potassium, calcium with vitamin K were the most successful. Dose depends on several factors.
