Up'd PZ to 2 caps, now die off again?

[Guest guest]

Just a thought...could there be something in the ZP that your son can

tolerate in smaller doses, but not larger?

[Guest guest]

We just increased our twin boys PZ to 2 caps per meal and 1 cap HN per meal.

We felt it could possibly give us better results.

My one twin is who I am more concerned about. When we first put him on the

enzymes we saw some really nice things but then they kind of faded, so I

thought we'd add another PZ (Devin's recommendation) and now he is defintely

'out of it' again... wondering if this is die off and we need to wait it

out... logical thought, I know... just wondering if anyone else has gone

thru this too?

Sue,

If you read back over the last couple of days you'll see that Aidan

had a strange reaction (I might even call it a regression) when we

upped his dosage. It looked like a gfcf contamination. Epsom salt

baths seem (data set of two, not necessarily a trend) to be helping.

Great to see you on this list.

Best,

That is one thought...the die-off. Here is another one. It could be

there is a food the enzymes are not helping with. And you just

happened to not have served it during the good period. Dana said

that if her kids had any particular seeds or oils then there would

be a reaction the enzymes were not overriding (unfortunately). Is

there any possible food he is sensitive to? The big problematic

ones, with enzymes, are the nuts, seeds, and oils from those.

We eliminate most all artificial colorings, flavorings and

preservatives because the enzymes are not helpful with these either

(Feingold diet).

that is a good thought as my son could not tolerate the pumpkin

seeds even on the enzymes. I know said her kids have a problem

with chocolate if they eat more than a little bit even on enzymes.

I'd love to say this is the case, BUT, my son eats the same things all the

time. We have not introduced anything new... he does not get food dies or

colorings or oils, nuts, seeds, etc.

Thanks for the suggestion... I think I am going to have to wait this one out

;(

I am wondering the same thing, for you and for me. We are not using

ZP, but a different general enzyme called Vital Zymes Forte. When we

started using it with greater frequency, my daughter started to get a

rash under her mouth. Later, I found out that one of the enzymes is

from pineapple, and she does have a IgG allergy (3 out of 4) to

pineapple. I have backed off the VZF, but haven't eliminated it

completely because I was hoping it would help with my daughter's many

many food allergies.

Yesterday I ordered the ZP and I'll try it to see if she reacts to

it. I think that it also has bromelain in it? I didn't check before

I ordered it because I don't know for sure if that is what she is

reacting to.
