Re: Really Worried

Hello we have had good success with the enzymes but have experimented a bit my

little ones got a bit ratty on half Zyme and Half Pep so I have changed it to 1

Zyme 3x per day and they have settled wonderfully - I think the pep was hurting

them a little - I plan on introducing the pep very very slowly - it may just be

too strong for them as yet, we started in December. I would just go back to

slow baby steps.

Hopefully you will get more suggestions shortly but don't give up yet, the

settling in stage can take some time for some kiddies from what I have read.

[ ] Really Worried

Hey everyone. I am really worried about my son and am thinking of

stopping the enzymes. I thought I would post this first and get some

feedback from those of you who have been through it. We started the

enzymes at the begginning of Jan. I went up really slow, we had some

rough times, but when I backed off the dose a little he got better

and had a good week last week. I decided to increase to 1 cap of each

Houstons and he started to cry again at school (basically all day).

So I backed off the dose again to 3/4 cap of each (just w/ lunch and

dinner). Now for 2 days, he keeps taking himself to bed when he's

home and crying all day at school. Had to go get him today. I am so

concerned that the enzymes are making him sick. He is non verbal, so

he can't tell us what is going on. He is not totally gfcf. We did

that for a year when he was 5 with no results, so we stopped. He is

10 now. He has always reacted negatively to various supplements I

have tried over the years. I was hoping the enzymes would be

different. Any thoughts? Thanks, Nina

Hi Niki,

When I started this diet, I had been a vegetarian for 16 years, since the time I

left home, so I had no idea how to cook meat.

What I did to help this was I watched a lot of cooking shows on TV, checked

recipe sites and watched cooking on youtube as well. There are a lot of

websites that help you learn how to roast a chicken, etc.

You will have to adjust your cooking style a bit, though. For example, you want

to cook on low heat and just keep checking the meat so that you don't overcook

it. Meats shouldn't look dry and it's also good if red meats are still slightly

pink in the middle. Once you do it a few times, you will get the hang of it.

You can also use many of the same spices you might be used to from your Indian

heritage to prepare meals. I often make chicken or beef curry (minus the cream

and yogurt, of course). It might not be 'authentic', but at least it won't be

as foreign to your palate. I also find that the curry-style dishes are very

conducive to the addition of extra oil and butter.

You would calculate all the fats found naturally in foods and even your cod

liver oil intake in to your calculations.

I can tell you are very upset about all the changes you need to make and I

encourage you to do things that will help you to relax like doing deep breathing

exercises or taking a relaxing bath or even watching a funny movie. Take it one

day at a time and see how things go. Worrying about all the " what ifs " is going

to drive you crazy.

You'll see. Once you get started, things won't seem so overwhelming.

Take care,
