Guest guest Posted February 22, 2001 Report Share Posted February 22, 2001 Hi Hanne - I have been using Ojibwa tea with great success. We got it from the tea lady, Kalevik, who is mentioned in Karyn Seroussi's book. Her web site is: http://www.ojibwatea.com/ It was one of those things that I figured couldn't hurt him so why not try it. Well, we started the tea one week and didn't mention it to our therapists or my parents and independently they commented on Vico's increased eye contact. My husband and I both had noticed it too, but we were waiting to see if anybody else could see it. He would be sitting at the table with us and looking very thoughtfully into our eyes - wow. We are continuing to give it to him and have no trouble getting it into him at all - it doesn't taste bad at all. The reason I thought to try it was that it was reported to be a detoxifier and that it would also help to boost your natural immunity - all things my darling boy needed. Anyway - I thought it was pretty good bang for my buck. I love looking into my boy's beautiful green eyes. I hope that helps.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2001 Report Share Posted February 22, 2001 Is this the same Ojibwa tea they sell in HFS, or is it a special brew? What kind of detox? I am curious...I have been drinking Green tea lately , which is an antioxidant...don't know what it does, but I have become addicted to it...TIA-Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 28, 2001 Report Share Posted February 28, 2001 Moira, (& Hanne for you, too) We are on our fourth day of using this tea, WOW!!. I purchased it a while back and never got around to trying it with my son, but now wish we had started it sooner. I was hoping I wasn't just wishful thinking that it was helping, but there's no denying that something is happening. Moira, just like you, we are seeing great eye contact, much more awareness, imitating words and characters actions on T.V. like never before, and generally happier. Today, he accidentally hit his hand while playing with a toy drum during his a.m. therapy and I could tell it hurt. He fell into my arms for comfort, then ran to his therapist and got a hug from her, but the amazing thing was that there was another therapist (just visiting) and I said to him " Oh, does Jo need a hug, too? " At this point he had made it back to my arms and he hesitated for a moment and then ran to Jo and hugged her, too!!!!!! WOO HOO!!! He has only seen Jo about three times in his life and it was amazing that he understood what I had said, and did it appropriately. This was a first. I have not changed anything in his diet or any of his supplements lately. We are in the " wait " mode for the results back on our visit to Dr. Holmes and I thought I would see what would happen in the meantime by adding the tea. I'm hoping this gradual " awareness " continues and I'll be ordering more tea for sure.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2001 Report Share Posted March 1, 2001 Hi: how do you get children to drink this tea? Does it taste like regular tea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 1, 2001 Report Share Posted March 1, 2001 So do you make the tea first then mix it with juice and how do you know how much to give. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 1, 2001 Report Share Posted March 1, 2001 > So do you make the tea first then mix it with juice and how do you know how > much to give. I bought my tea from Kalevik at the following web site: www.ojibwatea.com She sent me detailed instructions about how to brew and store the tea and also I bought an information packet that she has regarding using this tea with autistic kids. That helped with the dosage level and explained possible side effects - which are basically that the person could get a little gassy - if that happens you can back off the dosage and gradually build up again. I do that with every suppliment I give my kid - start small and work up to full dose. Anyway - she was incredibly helpful and even called me personally when her email was down to answer one of my questions. SO in answer to your question, yes, you do make the tea first and then add it to your kids juice, or give it to him directly like I do sometimes with a medicine plunger - it doesn't really have any taste. I take it too and I have been feeling pretty healthy. Everyone around me at work has had the flu and I am just fine. Hope that helps.

She would love to hear about your success if you did, even if you didn't she would be so happy to hear that the tea is helping. Sharon I would love to hear about your success with Perfect Stool formula - that was something I was thinking about getting. I need to make another batch of the tea tonight. I love that something natural can help our little folks - makes you feel good about giving it to them, like the vitamins and cod liver oil, it's good for their little bodies. Congrats!

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2001 Report Share Posted March 1, 2001 Moira, Yes, I did get the tea from at www.ojibwa.com , and she is incredibly helpful with any questions. I'm going to email her with what we are seeing in just five days, and to place another order because I want to try it, too. I'm hoping this means less chelation when we get to that point in about a month. I really do wish I would have tried this sooner. I had gone back and re-read Seroussi's book trying to absorb things I know I didn't catch the first time. I kept coming back to the tea. I started my son on this diet at about 20 months (he's now 31 mths) and I was trying to find what I might have missed that she had done. I know every child is different, but I think the tea might have been the detoxifier that could have helped if he was vaccine/metal poisoned, too. One other thing I haven't tried is the Nystatin, but I have a feeling that is next when we receive the results back from Dr. Holmes. Just my rambling thoughts on this for whatever it's worth. Thanks so much. Elsie (in Texas, still smiling) Re: Ojibwa tea any experience? > > > WOO HOO!!!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2001 Report Share Posted March 3, 2001 Shari, I think talks about this on her website www.ojibwatea.com (I posted this wrong on an earlier message, sorry). I think I remember something about this being on there. Hope that helps. Elsie (in Texas) Re: Re: Ojibwa tea any experience? > Is this a special tea? I see Obijawa tea in my HFS all the time!
