Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I thought maybe it was making my son hyper so I started giving it to him at lunch but he would go right down for nap for several hours after so I started giving it to him in the morning again. I also give him his Coromega fish oils right after it. I have noticed when he doesn't have the fish oils he is less calm.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Yes, my 4 year old son had the same reaction... no noticeable surges in speech or even other areas and very very hyper... because NV has so many ingredients, it was impossible to figure out which one was causing the hyperactivity and it all stopped when we stopped NV... pity though... we were hoping NV would be the elixir that it has been to so many. BTW, my son has ASD and apraxia, no seizures. [ ] Hyperactivity on NV I had my 5 year old on NV for 6 months and decided to take him off due to hyperactivity that seemed to be getting worse as time went on. He couldn't sit still at school to do any work. I gave him his NV around 5 pm a couple days rather than before school and he didn't fall asleep until 1-2am both times. He was only getting 1 scoop a day. Has anyone else had this problem? He didn't have any surges with his speech while on NV either. I was really hoping it would help him but had no luck.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Lee, Since your son is 5yrs, most docs approve 2 scoops per day. Is there a reason u were giving him only one scoop? Anecdotal evidence shows that giving the therapeutic dosage produces the surges and benefits. For his age that is 2 scoops. Also, since NutriiVeda is water soluble, it's important to split the dose in half-- 1 scoop in the morning & 1 in the afternoon. I noticed with my NT son that all the NV (2scoops) given only once/day at breakfast mad him way too hyper at school. Now that he gets it split in half, he's fine. So I would recommend increasing to 2 scoops, split in half.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Lee our boys are about the same age. We use 1 scoop twice a day with our son so two scoops a day. Even though our son's pediatrician approved it months earlier I stalled purchasing it as I was afraid that my son would be one of the few it doesn't work for. My only regret now is that I waited so long. We were blessed to witness dramatic results in one day, so I call NV our Christmas miracle LOL I find it helpful to check this list http://pursuitofresearch.org/pursuit-of-research because even though we were just looking for speech gains you don't always realize other gains happening at the same time as there are so many. For us the most fascinating was the huge difference in sense of humor and academics. My son is not only speaking in class but he's also reading! We didn't tell his teacher he's on NV and she thinks he is " blossoming " I do hope that it's just that you were using the wrong dosage. God bless.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 See my message to Lee. Tatyana, Did you split the dose in half or give NV all at once? I noticed a HUGE difference in my son once I split the NV dose into AM/ PM doses. The hyperactivity decreased significantly. I would encourage you to give NV another try by splitting the dose.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Barbara and Kate brought up a great point about dosage affecting outcome. Here's another example Sheetal from Long Island NY has 2 kids with autism =one 5 and a half and one 7 and a half. The 7 and a half year old as I wrote here surged dramatically in social, speech, academics- noticed by all her professionals. (she promised she would update us and she's already met with Dawn Falley from our group also with 2 kids with autism from Long Island NY -except Dawn's kids are seizure free now as well -her story is here http://pursuitofresearch.com/2010/11/22/is-nutriiveda-creating-a-paradigm-shift-\ in-treatment-of-seizures/ ) Anyway -Sheetal had her 7 year old on 2 scoops- and her 5 year old on a scoop and a half. Her 5 year old she noticed a few minor things -but he became super hyper and he's apparently got a bad temper even prior to NV. NV just made that worse. After we spoke she increased both her kids -her 7 year old is now on 3 scoops and her 5 year old on 2 full scoops -and within days her younger one is no longer hyper -and he's starting to talk. There are two amazing updates and Sheetal if you are reading this please update us!!! If not she did tell me she will write something up -because with something as high of a success rate with NV- it's the easiest thing if it does work- it's at least worth a good shot with the correct dosage...and without a bunch of other supplements that may be contradicting it. So other than fish oils and NV- if not medically necessary -you don't want to use anything else. And to clarify more about the success rate -if you note what goes on in a support group or through the therapy practice that's the best way to know. For example Dawn who I mention above belongs to a seizure support group in Long Island. She has 2 children that NV has worked for in stopping seizures, improving speech, social, academic, cognitive and motor function as well as sense of humor and independence. She shared it at her support meeting and 2 other families tried it thus far out of the 6 families (so 3 have not tried it yet) and out of the other 2 families it not only worked for both -but the one little girl who is 4 years old (not 6 as I thought she had said) walked for the first time within one week of being on NV -that's amazing. And Dawn's older son is 15 years old and on NV he had the first normal EEG in his entire life- and he's now off all meds. Barbara who writes here about NV does so because she has a number of children in her caseload on NV and reports a " 100 % success rate " in her clients http://pursuitofresearch.com/2010/11/22/is-nutriiveda-creating-a-paradigm-shift-\ in-treatment-of-speech-impairments/ -and she's using it for her one son who is suspected/diagnosed ADHD as an alternative to medication- and it wasn't until I told her to split the dosage that it started to work. So splitting the dosage, using the right dosage- all of that is important. But in the scheme of things NV is the simplest and least expensive bang for your buck for so many areas of surge. To me if there is any change in any area- even one most would consider " bad " it means it's doing something. We went through this for years with fish oils as you'll find in the archives. Then it's just a matter to figure out how to get the results you are looking for. If something isn't working as we learned years ago with the fish oils -you notice nothing when you put them on or take them off. Even though NV is much newer one can hope that for this rare handful of hyper- like Barbara's son and like Sheetal's son the answer to success lies in dosage. ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
