Re: Bacopa Monniera for attention and Artemesia for OCD ?

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

We used metabolics for this

http://www.nutricentre.com/Products/Products/PID-MTB025.aspx

We used 1 capsule per day as the max dose for Eddie (around 15-20kg).

We mixed it into his vitamins mix so he had it as 3x1/3 dose with

meals. We still rotate it is as 0, 2, 4 caps per WEEK - so small

doses. It proved hugely effective for us - don't know of anyone else

it was so amazing for, but it a great herb (prized by Anglo-saxons

and american indians alike apparently). Also called wormwood or sage.

We used artemesia (watch out for variable spelling - the e's can be

an i's) to treat strep which causes ocd - BUT it didn't actually

treat Eddie's strep at all - it was oreganol oregano oil that got rid

of that from his stool tests (after several 4+'s). But the artemesia

helped hugely with ocd just, before maybe because it helped with TNF-

alpha (Natasa helped explain this but can't find the post right now)

Best wishes,

Sandy

anyone was still using this and whether it worked for promoting

attention and focus especially in school - also how easy is it to

take (flavour-wise). Is it supplied by Breakspear or is there a

better/cheaper product? Also I now need to treat my son's OCD as we

are not allowed to sit on the sofa anymore because sticks of all

kinds are lined up along it. Sandy I've seen your posts on Artemesia

being good - what dosage do you thing I would need for 104 lb 13 yr

old and whats the best time to take it - is it from herbs of grace?

Thanks to everyone for advice on candex etc seems to work much better

than Nystatin for us.

We use bacopa but in a formula for reducing oxidative stress which is

common is autism. We tried Artemesia for strep/ocd and it worked for

possibly a week and then scripting/ocd crept back up again.

We have since tried LDM (Lomatium Dissectum herb) for this and it has

proved to be great. 3rd day son (8) came home from school and said

" I've stopped stimming " which he had, scripting gone and ocd way down

- possibly not even a problem at all just need to challenge on a few

things. We used it concurrently with Dandelion as recommended in a few

herbalist articles I found to circumvent the rashes commonly seen and

has been great. We used for a month and have now stopped to see how it

goes.
