Guest guest Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 Darla, I myself tried ambrotose years ago when I had chronic fatigue, and it did nothing for me. I have had plently of people trying to sell them to me since for our son . I have to agree with Suhad Haddad - has anyone ever spoken directly (preferably face to face) with a family with a mito child who has had significant sustained success with these products? I am sure the hear say and second hand information is fuelled by the organization that is trying to sell the product. Likewise, if my mito child had had major success with a product, I would be making every effort to tell others in the same situation about it. A product that did make a big difference to 's quality of life that I have spoken about on this group many times in the past is DMG - dimythelglycine (check out www.kirkmanlabs.com ) Others on this list have tried it, some with some success and others with no benefit at all. In the last 6 months it's effectiveness for has not been evident, as he has regressed significantly.

Dear Darla, ' My 7 year old Leanna was on them 2 months ago. They are very expensive but of course if they made a difference they would have been worth a try. I was pushed so hard and told this was the miracle for her and the seller's were so sure it would save her life. They did nothing for her except to cause her severe gas, diarrhea and stomach upset. It was a huge regimen from ambrotose (high doses is what they wanted) glycentials, gummies, plus, and ambrotose AO. I tried my best and she lasted about 6 weeks or so. The company told me she had to try them for at least 3 months to be sure they were given a fair trial. The trouble they caused Leanna was not worth it to me. I was told of a little girl with mito that had miracles happen to her from them. I kept asking to be put in contact with this mito mom, but I never was put in contact with her. I figured that if I was a mito mom and found something that caused such miracles in my child, I would be personally contacting all the parents on the mito group to share with them my discovery. I could not understand why she never did that. This Florida family you mentioned, did you hear this from the company or did you actually contact them yourself. I would have been shouting it out from hilltops if I found a miracle drug, especially knowing what all of us parents go through. Anyways, that has been my experience. The company was considerate enough to refund all of my money when Leanna had such bad results.It was almost $400 for a 2 months supply. Dr. Boles told me that I could try them but not to expect any miracles. He was right. Good luck, Suhad Haddad -- Mom to Samya (Died 12-10-02 of Leigh's Synd.) & Leanna with same disease.

A friend is convinced they will work for us because a family in Florida has seen amazing success in their Mito child while using these products. ambrotose is one product recommended as well as Impact. If any one knows much about this issue I would appreciat eyour take on it. The family in Florida has seen increased energy, no heat intolerence, no stroke migraines, and more since their son has been on it the past 4 years. Insurance won't pay for it and it sounds kind of expensive but I was wondering if it might help the girls. Darla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
