Guest guest Posted November 6, 2001 Report Share Posted November 6, 2001 I have reading the groups emails for two weeks. I have been trying to get informed and learn all I can about enzymes before starting my 5 year all son on them. I still don't know what enzyme to start him on. He will continue to be GF/CF as well as soy free. He eats lots of carbs and is very sensitive to phenols. If you have any advice I would appreciated it.

Hello and welcome! >>>He is sensitive to salicylates, phenols etc. Had MAJOR gastro- intestinal problems when he was young; still has a problem with a heavy-metal load (arsenic, lead and aluminium, the last one sky high). He is casein and gluten free, preservatives, colourings, additives, sugar free as well. I'd like to see him on a slighter wider diet. I would like to start him on AFP-Peptizyde and Zyme- Prime; is this the best track to take. Yes, you are on the right track. And the Zyme Prime is the one with cellulose, right? You might also want to consider No-Fenol for the salizylase and phenols. You can start in pretty much any order, but do start one enzyme at a time at partial capsule and work your way up to a full capsule. my preference is in this order: - Zyme Prime - Peptizyde - No-Fenol Here is my reasoning way (from gentlest causing least adjustment effects to more): http://www.enzymestuff.com/basicsdosing.htm?lang=en If you do something different and it works out, great! If you are not taking a probiotic, consider getting a good one of those to add in at some point. Here are some suggestions: http://www.enzymestuff.com/probiotics.htm If you are not taking minerals or other stuff, maybe later on consider magnesium and zinc. In general, the enzymes do increase the types of foods the person can eat considerably. If you choose to stay on a certain diet, enzymes can help the diet work even better. .

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 , thanks so much for the advice. We've been supplementing probiotics and multivitamin/ minerals for some time. Greatly enjoying and learning from all the other messages.
