Re: Noah's story after being on Nutriiveda

Noah's story is wonderful! So glad to hear that he has a persistent Nana!!

J His story is similar to many of my clients who are on NV. I always

recommend that clients' parents speak with their child's doctor before

starting it and share the information about it. In my practice, we have

only had one doctor say no. His mom put him on it anyway and he's been

seizure free since Feb!!

If anyone (parent or professional) has any questions about NV and speech

therapy or just progress in general, please email me on or off list. J

Warmest wishes,

Barbara

Subject: [ ] Noah's story after being on Nutriiveda

Noah is my 4 year old apraxic grandson. He's had a multitude of problems

with birth, couldn't breastfeed, not sure at this point if that was Mom or

him, but he couldn't, he had pyloric stenosis at 4 weeks, which required

surgery, torticollis, ankles turn in, eyes turn in to the point he needs to

wear glasses and has a depth perception problem. He's very active, not yet

been given a hyperactive diagnosis, but never sits still, has trouble

concentrating on one thing at a time. He's been diagnosed also with Sensory

Integration Disorder. I ordered Nutriiveda a few months ago for my daughter

and son in law to give to Noah to see what the Nutriiveda could do for his

condition of apraxia after reading the amazing testimonials. Within days, we

seemed to notice progress with his speech, more babbling, (and his speech

therapist said that she had seen a huge difference in his progress). She

actually said she could cry, she had seen such an improvement. He also was

more aware of being wet and was virtually trying to potty train himself. His

parents were concerned about him drinking Nutriiveda and wanted to talk to

his pediatrician, at his 4 year old check-up, as we all should before

embarking on something we are giving our kids. Unfortunately, this

pediatrician, in my opinion, was very closed minded and told them

immediately, NO, don't do this, there haven't been enough studies to see

whether or not this would be beneficial. I'm not completely sure how it was

presented to the pediatrician, I had told them to take the canister and let

her see for herself what good nutritious vitamins and amino acids are in the

Nutriiveda. However, the doctor said No, and so the parents did what she

said. I kept reading about the testimonials and finally emailed my son in

law (yeah I emailed, so I could say everything I wanted to say without

getting too emotional about the whole subject) and told him I loved Noah too

much to let this drop. I told him that I keep reading these testimonials,

and the information on the forums, that I really wanted him to get a second

opinion, I just couldn't let this opportunity pass Noah by. The other

grandmother works at a well known university and works with a world renowned

recognized doctor who does research and is a specialist in developmental

delays, Autism and Aspergers Syndrome. I'm not at liberty to mention his

name, we don't have his permission to do so, (only because she hasn't asked

him at this point to do so). She had him look at the ingredients in

Nutriiveda and he saw no reason whatsoever that Noah couldn't try this. He

told her he knew of parents trying alternative treatments like this with

success. So, with that reinforcement, I asked Noah's parents to please give

this a try again. I told them the worse that could happen, is Noah drinks

something that is very nutritious for him and his Nana is out the money to

buy the Nutriiveda. I would love to be able to say that in 2 or 3 days, Noah

was talking sentences, but I can't say that. What I can say is he told me

the other day, " Bye-Bye Nana " , and coming from a child that could only say

Ma-Ma and Da-Da and Hi on a pretty consistent basis, with Ma-Ma being the

most consistent word he could say, I was extremely delighted. Being on the

Nutriiveda again for about a month, I can see evidence that it is working in

so many other areas with Noah. He's really working on the potty training

with feeling the sensation that he has to go and tells his parents, he's

much calmer than he was before, seems to listen to you more when you talk to

him, and he's mimicking what the other children, or cartoon characters, are

doing on TV or video. He has started speech therapy 3 times a week, and

takes PT one day a week, and OT one day a week. One could say, well, maybe

it's the increased speech therapy that's helping him to talk more and I'm

sure it's helping, but with all the changes I have seen with him, I can't

contribute it to just that, I feel certain it is the Nutriiveda.

Another thing I wanted to share is about Noah's head butting. When he was

frustrated, didn't get his way, he would head butt his parents to the point

that my daughter would have a bloody nose, he even blacked her eye one day.

Since day one on the Nutriiveda the second time, he hasn't head butted once.

With my daughter only being about 4'10 " , I am very thrilled about this.

She's my child, and I sure didn't like seeing her get hurt because of Noah's

frustration, even if I understood why he felt the urge to lash out.

(I forgot and left out the part about the Sensory Integration Disorder on

the Testimonial page, and additional info on the head butting, so , If

you want to put this one on there instead...)

That is an amazing testimony! I am so thankful that you asked your son in law to

get a second opinion! You are a good " nana " ! :-) You really went to bat for your

grandson and he will reap the benefits of that for the rest of his life. I

really respect you for that.

So many people in our society just blindly follow whatever their doctor says,

without really thinking for themselves. Now I know that many of us are not

doctors and they are useful to us in so many ways, but, NV is a no brainer, ya

know? It's FOOD for Pete's Sake! I think when it comes to NV, we all are smart

enough to know that what is in it is pure nutrition derived from whole foods,

grown in pesticide and herbicide free soil, rich in nutrients! How could that

harm our children? God MADE it for us to consume and to stay healthy. I just

don't get it why that doctor would discount it like that. Perhaps he was worried

because it was a weight management product. Who knows?

Anyway, I am so happy for your grandson and your daughter as well! No more head

butting! That had to hurt! :-(

Keep us posted on his progress!

I agree 100%, and thank you for the compliment. I would do anything for that

little guy, he's been through so much. The saving grace in all of this, is he's

such a happy guy, he doesn't know anything's wrong at this point. Hopefully, the

goal is, to have him as " complete " as possible and better able to deal with his

condition by the time he becomes aware that he is different in some ways than

most children.
