Re: nutriiveda and possible hyper behavior

[Guest guest]

Hi Cheryl,

From what I've read it seems the hyperness is temporary. Also it seems that if

you decrease the amount the hyperness will stop. For instance if you're giving 2

scoops decrease to 1 1/2 scoops.

[ ] nutriiveda and possible hyper behavior

I'm curious if other children have hyper or significant emotional behavior

problems with other supplement support especially vitamins? I would love to try

the nutriiveda with our daughter, but without fail every new supplement or

vitamin we try either provides a surge, or sometimes more subtle speech or motor

improvement,or sometimes no noticeable change,and then after about a month on

anything,she starts with hyper behavior,irritability,emotional

breakdowns,obviously regression in school performance because she becomes so

aggitated, ocd behaviors, anxiety symptoms... scary ,hugh? Fish oils are the

only tried and true help that had no negetive effect. Most recent was methyl b

12,b 6(because she was defficient),and phosphotydyl serine.I saw there was a

comment that possibly there was hyper behavior perhaps after trying the

nutriiveda with one child .

I get so encouraged when I see a surge, or just some improvement in the

production of her thoughts, or language in subtle ways,but then the nightmare of

these " breakdowns " begin and it literally takes months just to get her well being

back to normal(after stopping the supplement)--it's almost like she's detoxing

off of the supplements or vitamins. Has anyone felt in the least bit --hmm --I

don't know how to put it..edgy?,or have too much energy, maybe difficulty

sleeping while taking the nutiiveda? If it can stimulate some it might aggitate

her is what I'm thinking. I think that something that might rev up her

metabolism might not be the best for her given her track record, but it sure

sounds like a wonderful product to try. Any input would be appreciated to help

me make a decision(but I am for sure going to try some for) myself!!!! the 8

pounds for the last year I wanted off has now turned to 12-15 pounds-I like the

sounds of this stuff! Cheryl

When I increased my son's NV dosage for 1 scoop to 2 scoop he was all-over the

place. I waited for almost a week to see if he settled down.

Just like you mentioned my son's first reaction to any new supplement is being

hyper. I always take it as a good sign but if it is too much then I start

reducing the dosage.When we started NV I had stopped all his supplements

including fish oil to see how he handles it.

On 2 scoops he was really hyper - just hard for me to handle. I stoped NV for 3

days. During those three days I reintroduced all his supplemets[bascially fish

oils and neurotransmitters]. On the 4th day brought back NV with 11/2 scoops. He

settled down very quickly with that dosage.

But the best thing is to check with your kids doctor to see if it is ok to give

with all the other supplements. As this was introduced as a weight management

product but have been found beneficial to our kids because of all the good

properties of the botanicals used - so please check with any medical

professionals who is familiar with your child.

Giving a little late like after dinner did not work well because he was full of

energy!! So i settled for snacktime. The other thing I noticed was his

tantrums[like a 3 or 4 yr old] - I was happy to see that because he was

expressing his emotions[just like any other normal typical kid] but couldn't

encourage him since he is 7!!! So once he realised that it was not an

appropriate behavior he expressed it with a little whine or with a long

face[which was cute too]!!!

Hope this helps,

It sounds like our children are a little similar in reacting to supplements. Our

daughter is 6(soon to be seven)so I can relate when you're describing tantrums.

I'm curious because you mentioned your son is on neurotransmitters(when you said

you took him off all supplements when starting nutiiveda)..Our daughter went

through neurotransmitter balancing (through a chiropractic nutritionist)before

and her excitatory transmitter levels were really high and calming(basically

seratonin) were low. A few months ago she was tested again (we got a new dr.)

all were sky high and she was really in an aggitated state. Calming supplements

like magnesium and l theanine helped.You also mentioned run it by the dr. Again

it's not so easy. We are going to Magaziner Center for Wellnes in Cheery Hill NJ

and their whole practice is based on natural alternative medicine and he is even

perplexed and not getting a handle on what she can and can't handle. He knows

what supplements may help and support her but when she gets out of wack he

doesn't know why and says stop it.. If you don't mind saying what neotransmitter

supplements are you using? I wonder if some kids excitatory transmitters are

elevated and then when they take vitamins that can support energy it is just too

much and ends up being too stimulating.But I also wonder if combining a good

supplement(like nutriiiveda) with calming support we can find a good balnce. I

agree stopping other supplements when starting something like this is wise to

see how they react--but then unfortunately my daughter never is able to handle

many of the things that seem to minimze some of the apraxic struggles without

having the extreme aggitation and irritability,so maybe I should use the calming

support. Are you seeing positive results with nutiiveda with the dosage you said

your son can handle? Thnks Cheryl
