Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 You get them cheaper whether you sell any or not. I am also a waiora distributor to get NCD cheaper. I get it cheaper than the retail customer but never sold a single bottle as a distributor KerrieSHOP AMAZON HELP PAUL -If you get them cheaply then you do have a vested interest in selling more of them of coursePsssst...Have you heard the news?

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 -- - Hi, You can go to Lifewave.com/tmish, that's me......or you can check out some posts from Sue within the past week (sorry, don't have them) that contain other ways to get the patches. Tons of info on these has been posted over the past couple weeks...but if you'd like to start with some specifics feel free to e mail me and I can get you started with some general info. (ekogurl@...) They are approx. 100.00,(unless you sign up as a " distributor " , which means nothing more than it saves you money ea. time you order...I did it because I knew I was going to give this a real try...three months at least) and if used the full 12 hours per night, which most don't start out at, last two months. However, for example, you use them six hours every other night because of detox, they'd last much longer. I think they are extremely affordable...and I may personally be one of the " brokest " people in our group (my husband had a renal transplant about the same time we got the autism diagnosis and between his antirejection meds and Austin and Jakes PDD and ADHD, we are struggling). I have to pay 110.00 EVERY month for Austin's Td DMPS, and hundreds more for his minerals,biocorcuma, PS, DMAE, Omega's, Multi, melatonin, etc. And, for us, nothing since he was four years old and we started Mb12 cream and folic acid, has been as obvious in that it is working.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 -If you get them cheaply then you do have a vested interest in selling more of them of course. If they are so good then why don't the makers give them to the ARI to test them out double-blind placebo and all that? I may be unpopular in this group for saying this but I have seen these " wonder " treatments come and go and there is nothing new here or the DAN! movement would be talking about it and they are not. -- In mb12 valtrex , " ekogurl " wrote: > > -- > - Hi, > > You can go to Lifewave.com/tmish, that's me......or you can > check out some posts from Sue within the past week (sorry, don't have > them) that contain other ways to get the patches.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 there are many good and potentially great treatments out there that DAN hasn't got a clue about. whether or not DAN uses or knows about anything is no measure of its effectiveness!!!!!!!! and I cannot stress this strongly enough.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 What other regulating body do we have then? I have tremendous respect for the DAN! leaders and without them we would still be accused of being refrigerator mothers. There are a lot of vunerable parents out there and I think that the ARI is at the epicentre of the biomedical approach. You haven't responded to my question about the double blind studies, NOT the ones created by the manufacturers. DAN! could never be accused of being mainstream, they put their necks on the line re; vaccination and mercury and the gut connection, so why would they ignore such a potentially helpful thing? Glutathione is an incredibly unstable compound. I have spoken to many compounding pharmacies who cannot make the stuff without it oxidising. We must help the children to detox so their bodies are more able to cope with the demands being made on it. Why don't you email ARI tommorow and ask them what they know about this product and if it is plausible that it would increase glutathione and let us all know, all the cynics like me. s.com, " natasa778 " wrote: > > there are many good and potentially great treatments out there that DAN > hasn't got a clue about. > > whether or not DAN uses or knows about anything is no measure of its > effectiveness!!!!!!!! and I cannot stress this strongly enough. > > I can understand that someone is dubious about this or any other > treatment, this DAN approval argument is worthless > > natasa > > > > > > > > > > -- > > > - Hi, > > > > > > You can go to Lifewave.com/tmish, that's me......or you can > > > check out some posts from Sue within the past week (sorry, don't > > have > > > them) that contain other ways to get the patches.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 I have to agree with Natasa on this one. DAN isn't the end all be all of biomedical treatment. We saw Dr. Goldberg for almost 2 years and antivirals have been his thing for over 10 years. DAN has only recently picked that up in the last few years and there are *still* many DANs that don't do antivirals. Yasko is also *not* a DAN protocol. Neither is Pfeiffer. Neither is Homeopathy. And yet all of these are effective for some children. I love DAN but that doesn't mean I don't continue to do my own research. And the argument of double blind placebo studies doesn't hold water because the same can be said for many DAN treatments. I'm not advocating any particular product - I'm simply saying that the argument you are presenting is akin to crying for ones own freedom of speech without fighting for someone else's right for the same freedom of speech even if you don't agree with them. And please note, this was just a comparison - I'm not saying anyone is talking about freedom of speech. I completely agree that there are a lot of vulnerable parents out there and there are scheisters but we also need to temper that fear of being "had" with our own ability to think for ourselves and research. No one, ever again, will completely lead my view of medical care. I let doctors do that to me once and now I have a son with autism. I'm not letting someone else treat me like a sheep in the herd and that includes DAN or any other "regulating body". We can't throw all the responsibility of learning what's best for our children on to someone else. At some point, the parent needs to take some responsibility, too. Parent involvement is critical to understanding our individual children. My DAN does not control my son's care. She doesn't live with him every day and know what he does or does not respond to. She doesn't see him when he is not doing well on something. She relies on me to tell her what's going on with my son. What works for my son isn't necessarily going to work for another and what works for another isn't necessarily going to be what my son needs. I don't adhere to anyone's "rules" of what my son needs or has. The first time around when I tried DAN I learned this very quickly because it failed to work with him. That's why I sought out another protocol. But I never continued to learn about DAN or other protocols. Now that I'm much more aware of his needs, I'm better able to use DAN effectively with my son and it's going well. But he would have floundered for a long time if I had remained with DAN in the beginning.I'm probably going to regret getting involved in this debate.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 It may all be DAN *now* but it hasn't always been and that's my point. Dr. Baptist may have been doing antivirals for 30 years but that doesn't mean that DAN (the organization) subscribed to it 30 years ago. Not all homeopaths are DANs and not all DANs are homeopaths. Giving someone or some organization full control over how you choose to treat doesn't leave much room for learning about something on your own.

I have to agree with Natasa on this one. DAN isn't the end all be all of biomedical treatment. We saw Dr. Goldberg for almost 2 years and antivirals have been his thing for over 10 years. DAN has only recently picked that up in the last few years and there are *still* many DANs that don't do antivirals. Yasko is also *not* a DAN protocol. Neither is Pfeiffer. Neither is Homeopathy. And yet all of these are effective for some children. I love DAN but that doesn't mean I don't continue to do my own research. And the argument of double blind placebo studies doesn't hold water because the same can be said for many DAN treatments. I'm not advocating any particular product - I'm simply saying that the argument you are presenting is akin to crying for ones own freedom of speech without fighting for someone else's right for the same freedom of speech even if you don't agree with them. And please note, this was just a comparison - I'm not saying anyone is talking about freedom of speech. I completely agree that there are a lot of vulnerable parents out there and there are scheisters but we also need to temper that fear of being "had" with our own ability to think for ourselves and research. No one, ever again, will completely lead my view of medical care. I let doctors do that to me once and now I have a son with autism. I'm not letting someone else treat me like a sheep in the herd and that includes DAN or any other "regulating body". We can't throw all the responsibility of learning what's best for our children on to someone else. At some point, the parent needs to take some responsibility, too. Parent involvement is critical to understanding our individual children. My DAN does not control my son's care. She doesn't live with him every day and know what he does or does not respond to. She doesn't see him when he is not doing well on something. She relies on me to tell her what's going on with my son. What works for my son isn't necessarily going to work for another and what works for another isn't necessarily going to be what my son needs. I don't adhere to anyone's "rules" of what my son needs or has. The first time around when I tried DAN I learned this very quickly because it failed to work with him. That's why I sought out another protocol. But I never continued to learn about DAN or other protocols. Now that I'm much more aware of his needs, I'm better able to use DAN effectively with my son and it's going well. But he would have floundered for a long time if I had remained with DAN in the beginning. I'm probably going to regret getting involved in this debate.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Dear ALL, I think that autism is certainly guaranteed to create polarised viewpoints but we need to be mindful of those who have a hidden agenda. I came on this site to research Valtrex and usually keep my opinions to myself and let everyone else do battle. I feel very strongly about this though. I feel it is unproven and if it sounds too good to be true it usually is. We live in the UK and we have to buy and ship every single medication and pay every single minute of the doctor's time. No insurance. I think a bit of British cynicism is healthy when every pound you spend is out of your own pocket. It costs us $120 just to ship each pack of meds... Without our DAN! doctors, and their knowledge, we would not have got as far as we have but like the other members here I have researched it up intenseively myself of course. Wishing you all success in whatever you find works !

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 I certainly agree that legitimacy is needed (I'm leaving the Yasko debate alone). Just because someone is using biomedical/alternative practices to treat autism doesn't put them in the DAN category and DAN isn't just an umbrella term for any biomedical practice which is how many try to make it seem.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 DAN Is open to many of the things you listed, it's a grouping of biomedical, things that are working to help our kids if you look at there mission statement you will see that. there is even know a board of americian biomedial that will be certifing people put together to help some of this, DAN as a fellowship has done great things to get the attention of even main medicine as of this summer with the progress they have been able to make where others have not. so it's a growing revolution we will all be thankful for down the road, hopefully to even get some of the things we are all doing to be covered by insurence to help all our pocket books out Recovering from Autism is a marathonNOT a sprint, but FULLY possible!Read more about it on my BLOGs athttp://www.myspace.com/christelkinghttp://foggyrock.com/MyPage/recoveringwisheshttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=677063169 Re: Re: Our experience with the Glutathione patch so far...

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 DAN!s are great - but their treatments DEFINITELY vary, we have to use 2 DAN's (luckily their are 2 in our area) because one does homeopathy and BioSET/NAET but does NOT and will NOT prescribe an antiviral. The other is more medical minded. Between them both I feel that our son is getting good care and many people in our area use both of them. The one that does prescribe the antivirals does prescribe compounded Glutathione Cream from Lee Silsy - (which did NOT work for us) I recently ordered the patches myself (have not received them yet) because I find it hard to believe that all of the women on here sharing their success stories with them are lying, the only reason that they became distributors (as well as myself) is because it is just a few dollars more and then you get money off of your next order (whether anyone orders under you or not) you get the distributor pricing. Compared to what we had to pay the compounding pharmacy these are significantly cheaper and I think they would be less irritating. We are on these message boards to learn what is working for others and sometimes it is the parents who find things and then tell their doctors about them. Whether the patches will work for my son or not is to be determined, but I personally feel that it is worth trying and am happy when people share their successes. I would hate for them to stop because of some skeptics. > > > > > > > > -- > > > > - Hi, > > > > > > > > You can go to Lifewave.com/tmish, that's me......or you can > > > > check out some posts from Sue within the past week (sorry, don't > > > have > > > > them) that contain other ways to get the patches.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 No, if you read my original reply, it has nothing at all to do with the patches but rather her argument that if it isn't DAN or have a double blind placebo study about it, then it isn't worth doing (not a direct quote). I've not said a word about the patches other than to say I'm not talking about them. Cheryl~Visit my webstore for anything you need related to autism - groceries, supps, therapy supplies, books, and more!http://astore.amazon.com/grystai-20~Check out my blog: http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com/ yes but that isn't DAN now. the patches you are talking about are around NOW< you arguement is that if ARI isn't interested then it's because they are behind the time, I just debunked that. they ARE all of those things you said they aren't. DAN wasn't around for 30 years. they aren't that old, ORGANIZATION wise. but that doesn't mean there weren't those great dr's that long ago doing those things Recovering from Autism is a marathonNOT a sprint, but FULLY possible!Read more about it on my BLOGs athttp://www.myspace.com/christelkinghttp://foggyrock.com/MyPage/recoveringwisheshttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=677063169 Re: Re: Our experience with the Glutathione patch so far... I have to agree with Natasa on this one. DAN isn't the end all be all of biomedical treatment. We saw Dr. Goldberg for almost 2 years and antivirals have been his thing for over 10 years. DAN has only recently picked that up in the last few years and there are *still* many DANs that don't do antivirals. Yasko is also *not* a DAN protocol. Neither is Pfeiffer. Neither is Homeopathy. And yet all of these are effective for some children. I love DAN but that doesn't mean I don't continue to do my own research. And the argument of double blind placebo studies doesn't hold water because the same can be said for many DAN treatments. I'm not advocating any particular product - I'm simply saying that the argument you are presenting is akin to crying for ones own freedom of speech without fighting for someone else's right for the same freedom of speech even if you don't agree with them. And please note, this was just a comparison - I'm not saying anyone is talking about freedom of speech. I completely agree that there are a lot of vulnerable parents out there and there are scheisters but we also need to temper that fear of being "had" with our own ability to think for ourselves and research. No one, ever again, will completely lead my view of medical care. I let doctors do that to me once and now I have a son with autism. I'm not letting someone else treat me like a sheep in the herd and that includes DAN or any other "regulating body". We can't throw all the responsibility of learning what's best for our children on to someone else. At some point, the parent needs to take some responsibility, too. Parent involvement is critical to understanding our individual children. My DAN does not control my son's care. She doesn't live with him every day and know what he does or does not respond to. She doesn't see him when he is not doing well on something. She relies on me to tell her what's going on with my son. What works for my son isn't necessarily going to work for another and what works for another isn't necessarily going to be what my son needs. I don't adhere to anyone's "rules" of what my son needs or has. The first time around when I tried DAN I learned this very quickly because it failed to work with him. That's why I sought out another protocol. But I never continued to learn about DAN or other protocols. Now that I'm much more aware of his needs, I'm better able to use DAN effectively with my son and it's going well. But he would have floundered for a long time if I had remained with DAN in the beginning. I'm probably going to regret getting involved in this debate. Cheryl ~Visit my webstore for anything you need related to autism - groceries, supps, therapy supplies, books, and more! http://astore.amazon.com/grystai-20 ~Check out my blog: http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com/ What other regulating body do we have then? I have tremendous respect for the DAN! leaders and without them we would still be accused of being refrigerator mothers. There are a lot of vunerable parents out there and I think that the ARI is at the epicentre of the biomedical approach. You haven't responded to my question about the double blind studies, NOT the ones created by the manufacturers. DAN! could never be accused of being mainstream, they put their necks on the line re; vaccination and mercury and the gut connection, so why would they ignore such a potentially helpful thing? Glutathione is an incredibly unstable compound. I have spoken to many compounding pharmacies who cannot make the stuff without it oxidising. We must help the children to detox so their bodies are more able to cope with the demands being made on it. Why don't you email ARI tommorow and ask them what they know about this product and if it is plausible that it would increase glutathione and let us all know, all the cynics like me. s.com, "natasa778" wrote: there are many good and potentially great treatments out there that DAN hasn't got a clue about. whether or not DAN uses or knows about anything is no measure of its effectiveness!!!!!!!! and I cannot stress this strongly enough.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Hi, I thought that same thing...about how much can I trust someone who is " selling " these things?...I can understand what you are saying. Before I try anything, I worry about what it will cost and will it work, I have a naturally suspicious nature. I feel like there's a difference here from someone " selling " something. The reason you sign up to be a distributor is to save some on your own patches...hence, you are buying this product because you like it... " Would you buy the product over and over if it didn't help you or your family in the first place? " No way, money would be better used elsewhere. It is because I have been using them for almost eight months now, I can speak from actual results. You don't know me personally so it's harder to believe, but I would never lie to grow some company that I'd never heard of prior to eight months ago, who is cheating people with sick little children out of their money. Many have been seeing the same things I am seeing, which makes me feel great in knowing I am not alone. In the meantime, all of us that are currently using them can keep everyone posted for all of you who are taking a " wait and see approach " . There's certainly nothing wrong with that! Maybe some of the new people to the patches won't become distributors so that their results are " more believable " ...I don't know how else to remedy that one.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 I agree with Cheryl that it doesn't HAVE to be a double-blind, placebo-controlled study to prove that it works. Heck, as one poster said, her child asking for it was enough for her to know they work. I've been in that boat with other protocols, it was good enough for me, too. But, the study that says they took blood & urine & showed increases in glutathione over periods of time concerns me because it does not specifically address whether or not the kids were taking any other supplements. If the children were also using td-glutathione patches, taking precursors to selenium, etc. They could have been doing HBOT while using the patches. They could have had increased in glutathione and made it appear to be the patches at work. Perhaps the test subjects were not taking any other treatments, but I think it should have been clearly stated whether or not they were. Since it wasn't journal-published article, which can obviously have its own issues, and was a study done for the manufacturer, clarifying these issues can make a big difference in their claims.
