Re: gcmaf- Now phenol sensitivity/phenol assist

[Guest guest]

Hi Aolak,

Just wanted to give you a feedback on kirkman phenol assist. We started that on

saturday and I have a feeling that my son has also become more hyper, and seems

like going thru yeast die off. He was much better for two days when we ran out

of no phenol and then when I added phenol assist, he started getting

hyperactive, has lots of verbal stimms and is getting cranky easily. Will stop

tomorrow and observe.

verbal though he does a lot of babbling. One of his major issue which i feel is

stopping him from making any progress is his serious hyperactivity and

absolutely no attention or focus. He cannot sit still for more than 90-120

seconds at one place. Even while sitting for his food, he will have no eye

contact and will be lost in his own world. After some testing, we came to know

that he has issues like heavy metals, food allergies, etc. Though we have not

done any testing for phenol sensitivity but we feel that he is also sensitive to

Phenol. So our DAN prescribed him with Phenol Assist. We started giving him

Phenol Assist (1/2 capsule everyday) from Kirkman Labs. Now after one week, we

see that his screaming, running, jumping has increased significantly. Yesterday

we took him to the park and he was running and screaming all over the place. He

keeps jumping on the Trampoline to

and should we continue or stop? Should we try with No Phenol instead of Phenol

grateful to some moms on another forum who pointed me in this direction. Other

than no phenol/phenol assist and avoidance of phenol rich food, magnesium

sulfate cream has been the most amazing for my son. I just started it last week

and I am applying 3 times a day. I got the kirkman brand. On friday, I was not

home and my husband forgot to put it on and my son had a bad day. Molybdenum has

been known to help and I am about to start my son on that this week as I am

trying to add one thing at a time. I am making notes on all the material that is

available on the net regarding phenol sensitivity and as soon as I have my notes

ready, I will post. I know that a lot of parents may already know this info, but

it may help some other parents like me who are just beginning to learn about the

phenol issues. I strongly recommend magnesium sulfate cream. As you may already

know, phenol

> sensitivity is a result of deficiency of phenolsulfotransferase activity and

also from lack of sulfate available for the proper enzyme activity. So we are

trying to avoid a phenol load on the body by reducing the intake of phenols and

using no phenol to help digest the phenolic compounds and at the same time we

are trying to supply body with the sulfate. These children have difficulty with

sulfur oxidation also and providing sulfur in the diet doesn't help but when

they get the ready sulfate, it is available for the PST enzyme to be used right

away and then the PST functions better at getting rid of the phenolic products

and toxins which cause all the crazy symptoms. Vitamin B6 in the P5P form should

be avoided as it further affects PST but if it needs to be given, magnesium dose

should be increased. There are some other supps ideas that I am working on and I

will let everyone know once I have everything collected.
