<<Any effects to report or is it too soon?>>

Carol,

I'm still holding my breath, because I can't quite believe it.... but we are

seeing very dramatic progress with potty training, which came about two weeks

after starting the K. Who knows? All I know is that I have a girl who is

consistantly using the potty at school and at home.... and this is one VERY

delayed little girl who showed zero progress toward that goal until very

suddenly, about three weeks ago.

We ARE also seeing the definite signs of her body flushing out oxalic acid, all

of which said to expect, so I suppose this is verification that Katera

did indeed have some oxylate crystals to get rid of and calcium to put back

where it belongs. suggested we try the K protocol based on our history

during Katera's previous 18 month stint on SCD... when her seizures

unexplainably got worse after some months on strict SCD.

It's possible, according to , that the SCD yogurt probiotics were

causing her to start dissolving the crystals..... but without the K levels (and

possible need for some extra D as well) she had unmanaged calcium floating

around in her brain, wreaking havoc.

Patti--I bought a K2 supplement made by Carlson that

appears to be SCD legal:

Each capsule contains 5 mg. K2 (as menatetrenone),

cellulose, magnesium stearate, silica, vegetable

stearin, gelatin capsule. Natural color.

Preservative-free. Milk-free. Wheat-free.

Yeast-free. Salt-free. Sugar-free. Starch-free.

Corn-free.

Actually, I hadn't noticed the " natural color " until

now. And now that I look at it, I'm not sure about

the " vegetable stearin. "

What do you think?

Thanks,

I have to admit, I would just avoid this. I have no way to know what the

" natural color " consists of. I think the vegetable stearin is okay.... but it

honestly is not included on the " legal/illegal " supplement additive list as

being either legal or not. I am just guessing.... and I think one should always

avoid something if there is any doubt. I just have to admit, I don't exactly

know what that is.

The other reason I went with the liquid K2 from Thorne is that I needed to start

Katera on a very low dose (1 mg, TID).... and work up. With the liquid, one drop

equals 1 mg. That makes it very easy for me to adjust her dose, plus I am

taking it, too..... and I can be taking a different dose and not be fooling

around with opening capsules or whatever.
