Sorry if this is a re-post - my account timed-out or something strange

as I was replying.

MB12 kind of had the opposite effect in this household. After about a

month of 1000 mcg subcutaneous mb12, Cameron was needing only about 8

hours of sleep night. After we added taurine, EPO and melatonin he

started to sleep from 10-12 hours THROUGH the night. Maybe the combo

of supps did the trick?

MB12 is here to stay in this house - Cameron started asking his first

questions and experiments more with verb tenses, comprehends

consequences, etc. after 2 months of shots. Must also factor in a MUCH

healthier gut - thanks to SCD - in this successful equation.

I take it sublingually and it gets me through those tougher days,

makes PMS very manageable and protects the ol' myelin sheathing (have

a fear of MS - seems like too many acquaintances in my age group are

falling prey to this disorder...)Little Mia also takes it

transdermally b/c she has the same mood support needs that I have

I do find that my sleep seems lighter and I don't need as much, so I

take melatonin every other night to help drop off - melatonin (which

is naturally produced in our bodies) is suppressed in " developed "

countries b/c of our constant exposure to artificial light... Many

researchers believe that it actually puts cancer cells to sleep! So -

get your zzz's everyone! Your kids need you healthy!

Man alive, I feel like writing these days... sorry for the rambles!

Lynn - mommy to Cameron 3.9 (ASD) and Mia Jean (20 months)
