How much NV to give a 27 mo old?

[Guest guest]

, I also have a 2 year old (though he's quite a bit smaller than

your son) and we give him one heaping scoop a day, but started with one level

scoop...I would start at one level scoop for your son and see what happens

:-)

My son is 27 mo old and weighs 33 lbs. He has mild/moderate Apraxia.

He has no other issues.

How much NV should I be giving him? He's been on NV for two days. So far

I've put 1 tblsp in his oatmeaal at breakfast and the same in his yogurt at

lunch.

Hey ,

A full scoop per day is appropriate for your son's age. You can break it up,

half in the morning, half in the afternoon if you want to. My son is 3 1/2 and

has apraxia as well. Since he's nearly 4, I give him two scoops a day. Don't

worry though, you can't overdose on it, it is just food. :-)

If you aren't seeing much change, you can up it to a scoop in the morning and

another in the afternoon. My son is only 4 more pounds than your son. (he's a

bean pole!) How are you giving it to him, in a drink or mix it up in his food?

Be sure to post again and let us know what you are seeing! It shouldn't be long

now! :-)

Sincerely,

Romesa

Hi !

Many of the answers to basic questions are at the pursuitofresearch.org website.

It sounds to me like you are not yet aware that there is a scoop in the

canister. Take a butter knife and you will find it in there. Then you want to

use just one scoop. I would start at level and then go to a heaping scoop which

is pretty norm for 2 year olds. Some 3 year olds are being brought up to 2

scoops. The ingredients of NV are all whole food -no nutrients are added they

are all from the whole food, and NV is 100 percent water soluble -but I still

would feel most comfortable if you check with a knowledgeable

medical/nutritional expert about dosage. Here's a page you can share

http://pursuitofresearch.org/NutriiVeda_Information.pdf I checked NV out with

9 doctors (some of them friends but including Tanner's pediatrician and one of

my friends who is a nutritionist and author) and the most common response was

that NV was " impressive " and " high quality "

Here's the answer to that one question from the pursuitofresearch.org website.

What is the correct therapeutic dosage for NutriiVeda? NutriiVeda is 100% water

soluble, however we can only provide you with the dosages that have been used

with success and approved by doctors so far. We advice that you also check with

your child's doctor as well as FDA's website for further information regarding

the daily nutritional requirements for children. Birth to three - one scoop a

day (can be split into half scoop twice a day) Four to Eight -two scoops a day

(can be split into 1 scoop twice a day) Nine and up to adult -can take four to

six scoops a day -recommended to split 2-3 scoops per serving. Most start at a

level scoop and go to a " heaping " scoop. Some doctors have brought 3 year old

children up to 2 scoops, children between 4 and 8 up to 3 scoops, and 9 and

above between 4 to 6 scoops with knowledge that NV is water soluble. Increased

dosages are being attributed to increase in surges. Please again consult with

your child's doctor.

And just in case you ever need other serving suggestions- here are some (we'll

keep adding more as we as parents come up with them -there have been more

suggestions since which still need to be added up here and please keep sharing!
