Inositol

2008-11-17T06:36:00.001-08:00

I am currently investigating the benefit of giving my daughter inositol.
Inositol is a safe version fo vitamin B3 without the niacin rush.
I have noticed her brain waking up to the extent, where she pays attention to hoarding things into one drawer. She goes around the house taking items and puts then in her special drawer. This act is a miracle, because previously, she had shown no interest in paying attention to common everyday objects.
I advise anyone using Inositol, to be patient with their children, they may develop annoying behaviors, this is a good sign that the brain is waking up in places that it has not accessed. Be patient and loving through this process, the phase can last a good 2-3 months.

Herbal Remedies Sold Through Websites can contain Dangerous levels of lead and other toxic metals have been found in traditional Indian medicines sold on the Internet and used worldwide, according to a study from the Boston University School of Medicine.

Dr. Robert B. Saper and his team randomly sampled 193 Ayuvedic medicines ordered through online sites, and analyized them for metal concentrations. They found that one-fifth of the samples contained lead, mercury and arsenic, all toxic, and all potentially dangerous to humans. Approximately 21 pecent of the samples containing toxic metals had levels of lead or mercury that were 100 to 10,000 times the acceptable limits. Ninety-five percent of the products were sold by US based Web sites.

First Use Of Homeopathy For Autism.

2007-02-08T20:32:00.000-08:00

There are many books on the market on using homeopathy for Autism. I am still reading them all. I am simulatenously reading all research conducted since 1995 in the area of utilizing homeopathic remedies for autistic children. Here is the thing. Even though there are a few standard remedies, each child's remedy will vary based upon their symptoms, emotions, and behaviors. Some homeopathic remedies work right away, some take up to five weeks to really kick in. With some children they may need to use the same remedy for 2 years or more. Again, every child is different. My daughter said her first word, "hello", when we started homeopathic therapy. We used a clearing combination of metastat, solidago, cilantro and oregano. We had to supplement with 500mg of calcium carbonate to compensate for metals being dislodged from the bone. When you have heavy metal toxicity, which is present in children who have had adverse reactions to vaccinations. Taking homeopathy for detox can literally pull metal and minerals from the bone. Taking calcium carbonate is a preventative measure to help replace any vital metal or mineral loss when doing homeopathic detox. My daughter also went through a curing crisis after starting her homepathic protocol. She became obsessed with turning on and off lights and was very snappy and her moodiness increased. After 3 weeks these symptoms subsided and she started saying her first word," hello" and her second word was " ice -cream".

Daniel Tammet Wrote Back

2007-02-08T20:29:00.000-08:00

Mr. Tammet was kind enough to write me back. He did not have any classes or education to help non-verbal children. He does describe in his book what he sees in his own head, for parents who wish to have an understanding, he will give you an inside out tour of his brain function. I am currently shifting my focus to researching homeopathy, because I have seen the most progress from homeopathy based treatments.

Daniel Tammett, does he have the answers I am seeking

2007-01-28T21:45:00.000-08:00

I watched an interview with Daniel Tammett today on 60 minutes. he is a savant that has a spectrum of autism disorder. He wrote a book that has been said to set the inside knowlege of what is going on inside the brain. He is the first person to extraordinarily communicate his throught process. he has remarkable genius qualities like reciting 1000 numerical values of pie, knowing difficult to learn languages, knowing the day of the calendar regardless of year.
He displays similar behaviors as my daughter such as sticking his fingers in his ears when noise is too intense. Both he and my daughter need to measure an exact amount of breakfast cereal, no more or no less . My daughter has a visual fascination with numbers, but she cannot articulate thoughts and feelings. I am hoping through reading his book, I can gain insight into her mind and possibly learn some tips to help draw her out into this world that demands so much of you.

Vitamin B12

2006-12-08T22:48:00.000-08:00

I give my daughter the sublingual B12 available at trivita.com ( hope I did not misspell).
I have friends who minored in biomedical engineering in college. They taught me how to seek resources to test her blood myself on the difference.
I against anything needle. I researched that with an B12 injection it took 2 hours to release in the blood stream . Research says the problem is this form is very hard to clear from the blood and upon testing her blood again 3 days later, I did notice 2 cells that had rancid particle of B12 from her injection.
I learned that you want your vitamins fresh in your system and it is ideal for them to clear within 24 hours. Our body's cook at 98.6 degrees and old vitamins left in the system too long a period become rancid, form free radicals which leads to deformation of cells.
( I am speaking from my own personal observation through a microscope). The sublingual B12 from trivita has good time relase. It dispersed in her blood stream within 12 minutes ( learned through before and after urine testing) and the release lasted for approx 20 hours.
The sublingual from country life brand or vitamin shop is OK . It has a delayed release time of up to three hours I think due to the coating on the tablet and it can take up to 26 hours to clear the system. I always look to giving my child the most purest and water soluable vitamins for quick absorption. My observations were made upon several fingerstick blood draws and urinalysis.
Since my one friend retired, I no longer have access to his lab. I now rely upon Great Smokies Lab to do whatever work-ups I need.

The Importance Of Digestive Enzymes

2006-12-08T22:42:00.000-08:00

Digestive Enzymes – Why everyone should take them

are essential for life all cells require enzymes to survive an function. Enzymes create chemical reactions in the body and are vital to the body's ability to correctly break down and process the food we eat. As a body ages, enzyme production decreases. Many people do not realize that not being able to eat spicy foods, dairy products, and food in general is a sign of enzyme deficiency. I have heard many people say, " Why can't I eat the same foods anymore ?" or " I can' t eat as much anymore. " The reason is enzyme deficiency. Further, they do not realize that a lack of enzymes can contribute to an increase in body pain and a lack of stamina as well as hindering the body's ability to heal a wound.

Enzyme deficiency occurs for many reasons including : poor diet, fast food, and excessive intake of fats and sugars. These "reasons" require excessive enzymes to break down the food in the body. The body gets tried of producing enzymes so fast. The digestion of food is a large drain on the body. Ideally, when you digest your food your body should break down what you eat into small, energy producing particles to fuel your body with what it needs to run. when there is a lack of enzymes, food doesn't really digest. Instead you get gas ,indigestion, and bloating. It may also drain and clog your system with hazardous by-products producing food allergies, yeast, bacteria, and other undesirable factors. Stress, environmental pollution, illness, and chemicals diminish the body's capacity to effectively produce enzymes.

Many researchers now view the aging process as nothing more than a severe enzyme deficiency that leaves the body unable to maintain optimal function, The aging process can actually be delayed by taking enzyme supplements.

Since Enzymes are a crucial function in the body, a deficiency can also lead to more serious illnesses or diseases.
Enzyme Deficiency Conditions are seen in people who suffer from:
Sugar Intolerance, Hypoglycemia, High cholesterol, Leaky Gut Syndrome, Heart Disease, High Blood Pressure, Chronic Fatigue, Diabetes, Arthritis, Obesity , Cancer, Decreased Mobility, Lowered Immunity, Ulcers.

Many people who experience the following illnesses have turned to medication for relief. These medicines may alleviate the symptoms but it does not solve the root of the problem, enzyme deficiency. A digestive enzymes deficiency can increase the likelihood that undigested food will enter the colon. which cause the formation of bacteria, gas, and toxins. Poor digestion can increase the undigested nutrient build up in the blood stream, which has been associated with : Burping, Gas, Heartburn, Acid Reflux, Diarrhea, Nausea, Constipation, Gurgles, Fatigue, Food Allergies, Cramping, Acid Reflux, Bloating, Water Retention and Acne..

I have found a product to replace the enzymes balance in the body safely and naturally, It is called digestive enzymes . This product is based from natural plants making it truly 100% natural.

digestive enzymes contains several types of enzymes

Protease - to break down the protein in the body. This is VERY important to building and repairing muscles ( including the heart) Research has shown that swollen joints contain protein rich fluids which are the cause of the joint swelling. Protease can help people with arthritis and joint pain to break down the protein before it reaches the blood stream and settles into the joints. Protein build up in the body has also been associated to decreased libido, clogged arteries, and free radical damage.

Lipase - The fat digester ! A Lipase deficiency results in only a partial breakdown of fats which can cause the formation tryglycerides. The nasty tryglycerides bond together to form fat cells, and worse yet, they convert into Cholesterol which gets deposited in the arteries. However., fats are essential in creating a healthy body. Taking Digestive Enzymes can actually help to lower cholesterol and break down ingested fats into essential fatty acids, resulting in beautiful hair, skin and nails.

Amylase- Digests Sugars and starches in the body. This helps control blood sugar levels.
" hypoglycemia" , and breaks down starches into usable energy. This breakdown is essential for today's high - carbohydrate diets which include alot of hard to process junk foods. The body converts undigested carbohydrates and sugar levels into fat. By adding, Digestive Enzymes to your diet, you will effectively prevent excessive absorption of fat.

Lactase: Digests the milk sugar lactose. hundreds of thousands of people are lactose intolerant. this leads to unwanted gas and uncomfortable indigestion after eating ice cream, milk, cheese, and some yogurts. The lactase in Digestive Enzymes will help curtail these symptoms and many more.

Cellulase : the only enzyme that the body does not manufacture itself. Although you may be eating a high fiber diet, the fiber does not benefit the body unless it is broken down. Only then it can be effective in lowering cholesterol or helping reduce the risk of colon cancer.

Acidophilus: The friendly bacteria. Your body needs acidophilus to fight off infections while boosting your immune system.

How Are Enzymes Measured?

The Food Chemicals Codex ( F.C. C.) regulates enzymes and is published by the National Academy Press, funded by the Food and Drug Administration, through the Food Nutrition Board of the National Research Council. The F.C.C. is the only standard for evaluating fungal enzymes( The kind used in Nu- Zymes). Nu- Zymes is manufactured in and F. D. A and F.C. C.
approved facility.

What can I expect?

Many people suffering from stomach discomfort, like gas, bloating, heartburn, cramping, fatigue after eating a meal, cravings or upset stomach have reported improvements in these symptoms after a few meals of adding digestive enzymes to their diet.

People suffering from chronic stomach problem, like acid reflux, constipation, diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome or ulcers, results take longer to notice and will depend on the severity of the physical condition. Many people notice results from these conditions within 2-3 weeks of taking digestive enzymes according to the directions.

An adequate supply of enzymes in the body is essential for the body to keep youthful and healthy. According to some researchers, enzymes fight the aging process by increasing the blood supply to the skin, which delivers nutrients while carrying away waste products which can make the skin look dull and wrinkled.

People who are overweight will notice a reduction in food cravings and increased energy with weight loss.

Copper Zinc Testing

2006-12-08T22:39:00.000-08:00

this is imperative to have the copper and zinc levels tested in the blood to aid in improving cognition.

I agree that copper can be a factor , however accoding to the research done by Pfiefer Treatment Center Warrenville, Illnois. ( www.hriptc.org) It is best to do a blood test to determine the copper and zinc levels. We all need to have a certain balance of copper and zinc in our blood stream. Removing all of the copper is also a bad thing. Routine testing can determine how you are are on the right track.
