Re: Too much weight lost on enzymes?

[Guest guest]

Did she start out gfcf? I started Peptizyde myself, without being

gfcf, and I lost 45 pounds in 4 months. Major withdrawal, not fun.

Do you give a full capsule with each meal? How old is she? Was she

overweight to begin with?

I would recommend you give 1/2 capsule of Peptizyde and Zyme Prime,

and 1/4 capsule of No-Fenol, [or lower if this is the dosing you are

currently giving] with *every* meal, for a week and see if that is

better for her.

much and she refuses to eat any visible fats. She has lost about 15

lbs in about three/four months. There was one incidence of blood in

stool in Feb. this year, but later it was fine with stool tests. She

has low blood counts and low free T3.

This is very unusual, most persons gain weight on enzymes, especially

if underweight.

You might try backing off the Peptizyde and see if that doesn't perk

up her appetite. Sometimes higher amino acid levels can have a

negative feedback on hunger signals.

If her weight loss continues, have her checked out by a pediatrician,

just to rule out any other possibilities.

What else is happening besides the weight loss? Behaviorally and physically?

What about mood? And what type of diet has she been on? This will give a

better idea of what may be happening. Enzymes in general tend to regulate

weight, so you loose weight only if your were too heavy before. If too light

before, then you put on weight/muscle, and others just stay the same.

thank you,
