Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 My son has been gfcf (as far as I can tell) for about a month or so. He's also on some supps & I've increased his bifidus a few days ago & also started him on enzymes last week. He's only getting a 1/2 each meal. He's more hyper this week than I've seen him in a long time. Crazy laughing, jumping, climbing, some temperamental issues...just wild really. I started him on KidCalm today but I understand it will take a while to start seeing him calmer. Could the enzymes be doing this? He's on Similase Jr. on the advice of his nutritionist. And it's been over a week now. I wanted to increase him to 1per meal but not with the way he's acting right now. Any thoughts?

Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 I would recommend you consider phenol intolerance, and there are several supplements which will increase the hyper reaction to phenols. Here is my information on that. http://home.pacbell.net/cscomp/phenol.htm It can also be enzymes and/or yeast die off issues, depending on the ingredients of the specific enzyme you are using, and whether or not your son has a yeast issue.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2001 Report Share Posted November 29, 2001 <Everything I have read on enzymes said that for some hyperactivity is a common reaction that seems to go away after three weeks on enzymes. I have also read it usually means that the enzymes are working for the child.lisaf> Thanks. I guess that's encouraging, even though it's tough right now.
