Thank you Natasa. We are too :-)

I read on another board that the picolinate forms are excitotoxins.

Some rather famous DAN! whose name escapes me right now had told

another parent. I didn't follow up on it but just took the poster's

word for it. Apparently some kids can have a pretty big reaction to

the picolinate versions. It was easier to use the methionine form

and the sulfate form in a cream than to research.

EPO = evening primrose oil. Some seizure kids are having problems

with oils, so I decided to pull this one. It appears that it was no

longer necessary anyway (before if I didn't use it my son got eczema

when I supped with CLO but no EPO)'

Given all the stuff on my to do list I likely won't post to Dr.

Yasko, but I will remember this if there are any problems (praying

there won't be more though).

That is interesting about carnatine protecting the brain. Cut and

pasted into my " to look into file " :-)

That is one of the MANY pc supps I tried. I practically killed

myself trying to cut the capsules open each time and then when I did

have some success the PC that wasn't on my hands or the counter

would only stick to the side of the cup. Altogether too

frustrating. So I took the advice of the moms at the other board

and bought the PhosChol bottles, hoping that it's worth the

investment. At least, I suppose, I won't cut my own fingers off

opening the bottle. :-)
