Re: Question about NV

July 13, 2010

if I were you, I'd stop supplements and try just the NV to make sure you can

credit any gains made to the NV.

Of course, if any of them are doctor prescribed, I'd ask the doctor first.

NV should be enough on it's own although most of us are still giving the fish

oils as well.

Subject: [ ] Question about NV

Â

Hello all:

I am new to the group. I have heard amazing stories about NV and seriously

thinking of trying it.

My daughter is 4 years old and is on bunch of other supplements too.

Should these supplements be stopped when starting NV or just add NV to the whole

mix.

Thanks,

Richa.

I agree with Sandy. Outside of what is medical necessary and fish oils I would

just use the nutriiveda to start. You can always add other supps back down the

road if found to be needed...which please share if you are reading this and you

found you did need to do this as it appears many of us just now give our

children the fish oils and nutriiveda. The reason for the fish oils with the

nutriiveda is that one has nothing to do with the other. Fish oils contain the

essential fatty acids, nutriiveda contains the essential amino acids and

nutrients from whole food sources. Essential means they are essential to the

body but the body can't produce it so needs to consume it and as we know from

the video on this page the average child today is not eating well

http://pursuitofresearch.org/serving_suggestions.html

Nutriiveda contains per serving all of the essential amino acids as well as

nutrients all from 100 percent whole food sources, which is the purest form of

supplementation. Unlike supplementation, even when it's a natural form of

supplementation, we need to know if our children are able to utilize the

nutrients ingested. When nutrients come from whole food sources they are

balanced. For example say you gave your child 240 mg of potassium. You

probably wouldn't know if that's too much for a child's daily intake if you were

say to just supplement with potassium...but if you gave your child a banana you

wouldn't think twice about it, as that banana would contain about that amount of

potassium, but in a whole food balanced way.

Most have figured out that our children are not utilizing or ingesting enough

nutrients and thus many are put on a medicine cabinet full of supplements,

digestive enzymes, probiotics etc. But the beauty of nutriiveda is the

simplicity. If you look at the ingredient list you will see that between the

ingredients, and the nutrients from those whole food ingredients, many of the

supplements you would give your child are already in there...again in whole food

sources. If you give other supplements together with nutriiveda since we do not

know why it is working almost across the board, we will not know if you are

contradicting the balance by adding an additional nutrients 'not' from a whole

food source (which would then be balanced) This is why I too recommend starting

simple and adding more if needed. Why make life more complicated than it needs

to be?

Perhaps if you have a list of what other supplements you provide you can share

them here. For sure nutriiveda replaces the need for a multi vitamin.

Here are the ingredients of chocolate as an example, as you can see there is

quite an extensive list of amino acids, including ALL of the most important

essential amino acids...per serving:

Ingredients: Whey Protein Isolates (Amino Acids: Alanine, Arginine, Aspartic

Acid, Cystin, Glutamic Acid, Glycine, Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine,

Methionine, Phenylalanine, Proline, Serine, Thereonine, Trytophan, Tyrosine,

Valine), Rice Life powder

(Brown Rice), Natural Cocoa Powder, Apple Fiber, Organic Cane Sugar, Proprietary

Ayurvedic Blend (Guggul, Amalaki, Green Tea, Haritaki, Turmeric, Gymnerma,

Cayenne Pepper), Xanthan Gum, Stevia, L-Taurine, L-Theanine.

You'll find more of the nutrient content on this page -but keep in mind the

dosage on the label is per 2 scoops:

We are seeing surges in multiple areas very quickly -a day to a few days pretty

much across the board. This page will show you areas to keep your eyes open for

http://pursuitofresearch.org/pursuit.html however as I have sent out here there

are sometimes other areas of surges that are unusual but just as amazing and

needed!

Please share your updates once you start!
