Not really. I'm quite comfortable with math no matter which way you

choose to express this; I don't really see where percentage difference

is relevant.

I second that, . Lena, have you had him on a Feingold regimen before?

This group is invaluable with the knowledge passed forward. Can someone here

suggest an anti-yeast without phenols/polyphenols?

My son had a similar reaction to topically used glutathione cream. He was a

grouchy little guy. Very reactive! I gave him chlorella to bind any

redistributing metals...yes, I've been chastised by the group for this. It was

'pre-group' that I did this. Since then have found Algin (alginates) that are

claimed to bind with heavy metal ions as well as be a bulking agent for stools

for healthy elimination during rounds. Group please chime in with scientific

studies proving one way or another. I've only got so much time and energy to do

research. I haven't had any emotional reactions from my son during rounds, etc.

so haven't had a chance to prove/disprove from my own experiences.

Hope something we all say gets him over this emotional stumbling block.

Take care,

Theodora

By the way, my son is doing quite well. He 'rescued' me in fact when I had a

vertigo spell in a store. He was very proactive, and clear in his direction to

people to go help me. Love him so!!
