Re: My kid has stopped eating

[Guest guest]

Penny,

Are you giving any supplements? Chelation can affect levels of " good "

minerals as well as the toxic ones. We are not chelating yet, but last

summer we had a similar problem. My ds just about stopped eating after a

bout of stomach flu. His appetite did not come back afterwards. I did

a little research and started supplementing with zinc. One of the

functions of zinc is to regulate appetite. It worked and he began

eating normally again. (As a beneficial side affect, he also started

going to bed at a normal hour and sleeping through. Yay!) By the way, I

give the zinc at bedtime because its absorbtion can be blocked by

certain foods. I take it also, and it does not upset our stomachs. I

hope this helps.
