Hair test #146, Re: Andy or TK - need your help, please! re: my son's hair analy

[Guest guest]

Ok, so nobody got back to me on the autism-mercury board yet, and I

want to ask here.

From the Faq, it looks like you start with 1/8mg per pound of child.

So for my 29 pound son that would be about 3.6mg of DMSA and ALA every

3 hours.

How do you measure such a small amount accurately? I've never seen

capsules at that small a dosage, and I don't want to give him too much

at once.

Thanks,

Andy says *about* 1/4 mg per pound in HTI, and then says to adjust up

or down depending on side effects, so that's basically the same thing.

He says don't use more than 1mg per pound.-------------Jackie

Hi JB,

We have chelated our little one for the past 2.5 years with good results. You

can purchase 25 mg capsules of Dmsa at www.vrp.com and then divide the capsule

by 6 just by eyeballing the amounts on 6 post it notes. The least I have seen

Ala capsules in are 100 mgs but you can check at VRP and see if you can find

lower ones, but the process is the same.

It's not imperative that you have EXACTLY the right amounts in each dose, but

you should aim for some approximation. THE most important part is the timing of

the dose, and that's every 3 hours during the day, every 4 hours at night is

usally good enough as metabolism is slowed at night, but to be the absolute most

safe you can stick to 3 hours day and night. We have done 3/4 and it's workable,

here.

Good luck,

Yes, JB, VRP also sells ALA but would probably be in 100 mg capsules so would

have to be divided by 12 or so to get your dosage, not exactly convenient, but

doable.

We used 100 mgs dmsa and 100 mg ala capsules to divide them into 12 or 14,

whatever we needed, when we started. We're pretty math retarded so we had to

keep it simple :-)

We taught her to swallow capsules that we put in applesauce but we used the

chelators directly in applesauce before she could swallow capsules. There is a

file on A-M that gives you some ideas about what to put it in, but basically

anything soft that your boy tolerates.

Hair test #146, Re: Andy or TK - need your

Thanks, . Do they also offer ALA, and what have you been

mixing it with to give to your child?
