Guest guest Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 I have not given her b12 before at all... which form of b12 will be best for us to start with? which brand? and the dosage for a 3 yrs and 30 lb child? and if I start her on b12, does it mean I should not give her DMG? I just started giving that to her and I am not sure how she is going to handle DMG... but I read it before that the b12 and DMG combo is not good. should I give 15 mg/ 4 times a day of p5p instead of 25 mg? Would that be ok? Calcium - how much? I am giving 300 mg/day right now. I am not giving her Co Q10 right now but she has been taking Carnitine for 6 months now. Should I start her on C0q10? and how much? 5-MTHF - do you know of any good brand? and dosage I should consider? Thank you!

I use mB12, oral/sublingual. I used both Jarrow and Natural Factors brands. I started with 250mcg but my kids were older than yours, you might want to start with 100mcg. > and if I start her on b12, does it mean I should not give her DMG? The combination of mB12 and TMG worked very well here, but they both required a lot of folic acid and carnitine for proper absorption, and they both tended to increase yeast, so watch for that. >>I just started giving that to her and I am not sure how she is going to handle DMG... but I read it before that the b12 and DMG combo is not good. It won't be good if you don't give sufficient folic acid and carnitine. But once I got the ratios right, it was awesome. > should I give 15 mg/ 4 times a day of p5p instead of 25 mg? Would that be ok? Try that, see if you notice improvement or regression. > Calcium - how much? I am giving 300 mg/day right now. That dose seems reasonable, unless she is either severely deficient or toxic. > I am not giving her Co Q10 right now but she has been taking Carnitine for 6 months now. Should I start her on C0q10? and how much? Start low, like 20mg, and be sure to give it at the same time as a fat, either food or supplement like CLO.
