RE: Glutathione

[Guest guest]

,

We have been using glutathione for almost 2 years now, and

what a difference it made in (almost 8) in the initial

6 months stage. It was suggested by Shaw, ( & our DAN! Doc)

The doctor had us start him at 50 mg glutathione, and increase

by 50 mg every 2 weeks until we reached approx. 200 mg because

of his decreased pyroglutamic levels & Increased aconitic

levels. We were also suggested to use alpha lipoic acid &

N-acetyl cysteine. We used each supplement separately, though

you can get it all combined in a product called Thiodox. We

saw subtle changes in , like better eye contact & less

rigid in routine, but he also became increasingly hyper. We

reduced NAC and the hyperactivity subsided. He did not appear

to have earth shattering results at first, but after we ran

out of gluthione once, (for about a week), he had a terrible

regression.. Then we realized, it was helping him more than

we had thought. 9 months later we had another OAT run, and

his pyroglutamic levels were in the normal range. Since then

we have played with the dosage, and now he receives

glutathione (100mg) every other day and Alpha-lipioc acid

(100mg)every other day...alternating days. When we run out of

what we have, we plan on dropping back to 50 mg each doing the

same rotation and eventually weaning him off, (of course

followed by another OAT to make sure his levels remain

constant) Hopefully his body is making his own glutathione

now...we will see. Interestingly enough, back then, I had no

knowledge of the heavy metals issues in our children, but

since then have spent a lot of time researching it, seems ALA

& Glut. are both excellent metal detox agents, and looking

back at his behavior when we started, he could have very well

have been detoxing. ( I remember a very weird urine odor as

well.) That's our story in a nut shell...I wish you luck.

Could this explains why my daughter did not do well on Thiodox( it has

all three Glutathione, ALA, and NAC)? I only tried may be two days and

then stopped.

Why you decided to rotate between Glutathione and ALA? Which brands did

you use?

Thanks
