Constipation

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I've followed the constipation protocol that is suggested with my

daughter for over three weeks. She is having daily bowel movements, but

they still remain ball like and gritty.

We are using caprylic acid to treat yeast. Am I right ti think the

yeast is the cause of the shape of the stools?

I give her the c. acid between meals. Her probiotic is SCDophilus. I'm

going to try Sacc. Boulardi. Do I give her that with her meals, like I

did the SCDoph.?

Yesterday AMy had a behaviour regression, lasting about 15mins-

tantrums, refusal to co-operate. It was at the end of the day. Any

ideas how to determine tiredness from die off?

Thanks,

Are you using the prune nectar, the nut muffins etc..?

Has there been any improvements?

Yeast may cause the constipation which can produce dry balls of

stool.

It depends on the brand. Usually you can give it with meals and

probitoics. Just don't take antifungals with it.

I take mine at bedtime.

If other symptoms are improving (bowels etc...) then it is more

likely from die off.
