Guest guest Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 > > Hi Bee, > My 9 month old was just diagnosed w/ impetigo. She is exclusively breastfed (and stays home w/ me); I'm in the early stages of your program. I just read on your website about Chlorophyll and Alfalfa, so I've started taking 1 T of alfalfa (for 2 days now). +++Hi . I do not recommend taking chlorophyll any longer. I used to, but it contains too much copper which throws off mineral balances. What are you wanting to handle with chlorophyll? > It's been recommended that I start her on topical and oral antibiotics which I certainly don't want to do, but the sores are spreading on her scalp. She has about 10 sores now some of which are scabbed over. Is this bacterial or fungal? +++Impetigo is bacterial, and the antifungals I recommend are also antibacterial so they can be used, as recommended for babies in " Candida Treatments for Babies & Children " ; http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/baby.php > How did this happen? +++Since your immune system is very depressed, your baby also acquired a depressed immune system upon conception. Probably you baby also has candida like you. > And what do I do now?? +++If you follow the diet and take the supplements it affects your breastmilk and will help your baby too. Also do the treatments recommended in the article I noted above. The best in health, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
