Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 My daughter, Abigail, who is 8 has been on NV for 4 days now. I am not expecting any surges, yet. For 3 days we did 2 scoops a day and now we are scaling back, 1/2 scoop twice a day. (we are now making frozen treats). Our daughter is completely non-verbal and I would say low functioning. She is autistic. Has there been experiences in the group with this situation in a child that started NV? I am curious what subtle signs we would start seeing first. Thank you.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Yes Celeste I know a number of children that fit the same profile as your daughter who have had amazing results on NV- and yes you should see results already by 4 days. But... NV is dosage dependent -you started your daughter who is 8 on 2 scoops a day and then went to 1 scoop a day? By 9 years old (so perhaps just a few months from now for your 8 year old daughter?) the dosage most of us need for NV to work therapeutically we have found is four scoops a day (2 scoops twice a day)...you care currently using a dosage for a child that is 2 to 3 years old. For an 8 year old as I have below " Some doctors have brought 3 year old children up to 2 scoops, children between 4 and 8 up to 3 scoops " Here's info from the Pursuit of Research 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. http://pursuitofresearch.org/products/nutriiveda/frequently_asked_questions/ About the last line -I highly recommend if you are nervous about giving your child NV that you seek out a knowledgeable about nutrition as well medical doctor, again they are not only approving NV -but we have a number of cases now where they are recommending higher dosages than what most of us use. I wrote a blog on how as a society we tend to over analyze something like fish oils or NV...but if it comes from a supermarket or fast food restaurant the average person doesn't even peek at what's in that junk food http://pursuitofresearch.org/2011/01/28/taco-bell-eat-first-ask-questions-later/ Besides we now know that healthy foods raise the IQ and processed foods lower the IQ http://pursuitofresearch.org/2011/02/09/you-are-as-smart-as-what-you-eat/ Again NV is dosage dependent; while there are exceptions which is rare where even at a half dosage there are surges that is no way the norm. Most of us see regression if we cut the dosage in half. If you don't use enough you may not see results. I don't know if that would be 'ever'. I honestly don't anyone that stayed at a low dosage for a long time to know if eventually you would see surges -most just raise the dosage and see the surges. Here again are the areas of surge: http://pursuitofresearch.org/pursuit-of-research/ Again NV is working pretty much across the board. A sugar pill will work for most 40% of the time for psychosomatic reasons -and the more expensive the psychosomatic medicine the better it's claimed the work...We read about stuff like this all the time. But with NV we have a number of kids and mainly teens that were medication resistant and still had seizures on even multiple medications (and one scheduled to have part of his front temporal lobe removed prior to NV) now off all medications and seizure free for over a year due directly to NV...and we have numerous professional anecdotal reports from professionals- many who were not even aware the individual was on NV -and many of our children are not aware they are on NV as the parents hide it. There is no doubt to me that NV has created a paradigm shift. http://pursuitofresearch.com/2010/11/22/is-nutriiveda-creating-a-paradigm-shift-\ in-treatment-of-speech-impairments/ ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 thank you for the info. I am just wanting to start slowly, is this a being over safe? I was thinking of moving up to 1 1/2 scoops next week.
