[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

 

I was wondering if someone could guide me in the 3 questions I had below.  I

did not see any posts on it.

 

Thanks,

Subject: [ ] Our Nutriiveda experience so far

Date: Monday, February 15, 2010, 3:17 PM

 

Our daughter has been on Nutriiveda now for about 10 days. She is 10 years old

and reminds me a lot of when I read 's blog.

 

Since starting Nutriiveda I can report the following but I do want to note that

the day we started she got a cold that has been going through our family and

still has cold symptoms to date:

 

After 24 hours of being on a full dose for her age we found her to be more

chatty but also more hyper. The second day she went to the kitchen and

spontaneously said (eat). She also grabbed my face that day to look into my eyes

and tried to say something to me. She was babbling more and tyring to say more.

During these first few days she was acting up at school though.

 

By day 5 she was behaviourally better at school and started to put the front

part of a word in. For example many times she says (ack) for back or (ome) for

home but now she started to say the full word.  On the 6th day she repeated the

word yes and spontaneously said hello (she always says hi and not hello) . She

was constantly laughing at shows that day and paying attention to them.  She

also tried to trick my husband. He was taking her to brush her teeth in the

washroom. She then stepped behind him and waited for him to go into the washroom

and then took off on him after he had gone in. She did not follow him in. The

school though reported a difficult day that day. She kept putting her head down

and not wanting to work. Not sure if it was the cold or Nutriiveda but at home

she was ok.

 

On day 7 she said her name in full (). She usually says (cole). By day 9

my husband and I noticed her face was more expressive. She also tried to say her

two word combinations more and tried real hard to put three words together. Day

10 today- she was more chatty this morning. I asked her a few questions and she

answered me with simple one word responses. Today she also went into the

kitchen and opened all the kitchen cupboard doors to see what is inside. She was

also listening well today.

 

She continues to have a cold so I wonder if Nutriiveda would work even better

with bigger surges when she gets well.

 

I only have her on Nutriiveda at this time as I wanted to make sure nothing else

interfered with it. I still though give her seizure meds as she has absence

seizures. I was giving her Krill oil but stopped this. The ProEPA and ProEFA

which I had used in the past did help her initially but then it plateaued so I

had switched to Krill oil based on a doctor's suggestion to see if this worked.

 

This last week we have seen some behaviour issues at school, chewing her hands,

licking ice on our rink (yuk). Could this is oral exploration ? She is sleeping

well but I noticed is taking longer to fall asleep. Today I tried to get her to

write her name as her fine motor is weak. She held the pen okl and I let her

try to write her name on her own as I always hold her wrist for strength and

better control. She did do it but it was still big and all over place but she

still held onto the pen on her own the whole time. Usually if I don't hold her

wrist she will just drop the pen.

 

I was wondering some things, 1)  is Nutriiveda hard on the kidneys or liver. I

am just wondering as she is on a seizure med and so I want to make sure there

is no overload.  2) She also does not like to drink a lot so is that ok when

using Nutriiveda ? I have been putting her Nutriiveda in apple sauce and she

loves it. It tastes just like chocolate pudding.

 

3) As well, can Nutriiveda cause yeast symptoms and or can it help heal the gut.

 

I am just hoping that it is truly the Nutriiveda and hope that things get

better. To be honest I have questioned myself on if I am seeing these things

because I am just paying more attention. I don't know but I will continue and

see how things go. There seems to be some good things going on here.

 

Thanks,

Demi

Hi Demi!

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner- AT & T cut my Comcast internet underground

line by mistake and it's harder to work off my phone. (ckrupa sp? I think I may

have accidentally pressed delete vs approve on your message to Anni! -please

repost -sorry)

First of all congratulations on all you are seeing in your daughter! What has

her teachers or therapists said about her speech surges? Since she's 10 what

grade is she in -what level? Mainstream?...any improvements in academics???

Have you noticed a decrease of seizures or better question since being on the

nutriiveda have you noticed any seizures as all? You say your 10 year old

daughter reminds you of Mel and Mel who is now 26 years old has been seizure

free since starting the nutriiveda 2 months ago. Mel's doctors have lowered her

meds (Depakot) 3 times now. Previous to this Mel had to be hospitalized twice

and almost died twice of seizures in the past few years- so the end of seizures

is quite profound.

Here's a collection of other things that are being reported -please let me know

if you are also seeing surges in any of the following areas as well. Unlike the

fish oils we this time have a company that wants to hear the testimonies and is

willing to research and validate what we are seeing. Since it's in days there

has to be some scientific and logical explanation.

SPEECH articulation, complexity and sophistication of sentence structure

LANGUAGE better understanding of written and spoken word, development of better

reading and writing skills

ACADEMICS/LEARNING reported surges in all areas of school

FINE AND GROSS MOTOR SKILLS also multi tasking

SENSE OF HUMOR both catching subtle humor and wanting to make others

laugh-joking around

AWARENESS OF SURROUNDINGS (for autism) reported following gaze and

moreinteractions

FACIAL EXPRESSIONS (for those with oral apraxia) instead of blank stares when

not engaged in conversation (non verbal expressions)

FOCUS on task, more willing to listen and try

MULTI TASKING (for apraxia as this is something typically not done or done well)

SOCIAL wanting to participate with others via play and communication

MOOD reported seems " happier " for a number

DEVELOPMENTAL CATCHING UP for those that never went through stages -reportedly

going through them for the first time.

DECREASE IN SEIZURES so far in one case elimination of any seizures and

headaches and decrease in seizure meds as well

Outside of the highest quality isolate protein, essential amino acids and

nutrients -we also can't forget the ayurvedic aspect to answer your questions.

Here are the answers to your questions:

1) is Nutriiveda hard on the kidneys or liver. I am just wondering as she is

on a seizure med and so I want to make sure there is no overload.

First answer from the scientific board

" The product shouldn't be hard on the kidney or liver, Amalaki has actually been

know to help protect liver function. Many of the botanicals have been shown to

help improve and enhance digestion. We have received many testimonials regarding

improvement in many different digestive conditions with the Zrii NutriiVeda.

Also, we are currently not aware of any medications the interact negatively

with NutriiVeda, although, we always suggest individuals speak with their

doctors before using NutriiVeda if they have pre-existing conditions. "

2) She also does not like to drink a lot so is that ok when using Nutriiveda ? I

have been putting her Nutriiveda in apple sauce and she loves it. It tastes just

like chocolate pudding.

Many of the parents are mixing the nutriiveda into food vs liquid. This is fine

but you want to make sure your daughter drinks enough water throughout the day.

I have lots of friends who are big into body building and this is common

knowledge of anyone using protein powders.

3) As well, can Nutriiveda cause yeast symptoms and or can it help heal the gut.

We answered this the other day but here it is again: the chromium, molybdenum,

iodine, selenium, and manganese yeast are all inactive and as I was told could

be taken even by someone who has a candida problem. They are there as a natural

way to get the nutrients chromium, molybdenum, iodine, selenium, and manganese.

As far as healing the gut I'd say we are all getting the best possible all

around signs of improvements we've ever seen -regular bowels included. Only

research will validate if it's healing the gut, the brain, and/or exactly why

it's working.

As you probably know by now with a 10 year old apraxic -yes they regress in

speech and motor skills when tired or sick. The fact that you are seeing surges

during this time is a double wow. Please do keep us updated and.....

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Please do continue to update us and again let me know about

those few questions I ask above.

For those that have emailed me in private as I had trouble getting back to

everyone today -if you want to purchase to support Cherab for PUFA research

please purchase the nutriiveda at http://www.pursuitofresearch.org or

http://www.nutraeasy.com for the wholesale 80 for two canister price which is

our cost. For those that wish to purchase elsewhere you can also purchase

direct from the Chopra Center and pay retail for two canisters -95 dollars

instead of 80. http://store.chopra.com/productinfo.asp?item=708 If you are an

international customer or just want to purchase one canister to try at wholesale

40 each you can also order from http://www.speech411.com

Any research on the nutriiveda will not have to be funded by us as the company

has already expressed interest in validating what we are seeing. Thank you!
