Re: Can NV be used with other vitamins

[Guest guest]

NV replaces the need for extra vitamins in almost all cases unless there is

something medical necessary for some reason. Fish oils or the essential fatty

acids are not vitamins and they are also not in the NV so those you can

continue, or can add and the essential fatty and amino acids appear to work

great together. I have more info on that here

http://pursuitofresearch.org/2010/12/01/therapeutic-use-of-fish-oil-for-apraxia-\

autism-and-other-communication-impairments/

For children you want to make sure they still eat food with healthy fat in it

anyway with NV as children need fat for their growing brains. For 18 and older

NV can be used as full vitamin and meal replacement if one wanted.

Hope that helps!

Unless the calcium supplements are prescribed by the doctor I'd stop everything

except fish oils (if already on them) And if the doctor did prescribe them I'd

share the ingredients with him and ask if he still needs the calcium supps.

Either way NV completely replaces the vitamin capsules. I have in this blog

http://pursuitofresearch.org/2011/01/19/pregnant-women-cry-over-new-studies-toxi\

ns-and-drugs-and-poor-diets-oh-my/ about how much of what we take as medications

ends up in the water (and because that's one of the things not tested for we end

up drinking it!) and I don't know if I included it but the same goes for many of

the vitamin supplements. Again the purest form of supplementation is through

food -and all ingredients in NV are certified food and that's where all

nutrients are from.

Hope that helps!

You're welcome. Most parents stop everything that is not medical necessary

(except fish oils) to start -but have below some archives from Sandy on how she

found better results with her 11 year old by adding probiotics back. Again most

didn't need it so best to start without it so you don't waste giving extra stuff

if you don't need to. You can always add the calcium back after you start if

needed- and again check with your child's doctor if he's the one that wants your

child on the calcium. I'm sure the levels can be checked.Re:

Re: [ ] Re: dosage of omega 3-6-9 and nutriiveda

i should have posted this months age (sorry lisa!!) but i wasn't sure until

recently what was really going on.

I do know that NV has improved my sons ability to make more complex language.Â

Keep in mind that he just turned 11, only said his first word at 4.5 years old

and had 2 word sentences in about grade 2.

I started NV in march. I had stopped everything except the fish oils. I did

notice the sentence complexity almost right away, but not much else, Then one

day, i still had some digestive enzymes to use up, so added them in with the NV.

Thats when i started noticing subtle differences. He only started actually

riding his bike when he was 7 years old, but loved to build ramps and would run,

holding his bike, not riding it, over the ramp. This is a child who HATES

anything that involves his feet leaving the ground. Anyway, a couple of days

after adding in those digestive enzymes, he actually put the ramp a little lower

and rode over it!

There were a few other things that he did that surprised me bit didn't think

anything of it at the time, just thought it was the NV. When I finished the

bottle of enzymes i didn't buy more, because i thought the NV and fish oil were

fine. Once I stopped the enzymes however, he seemed to have a regression but

i

didn't connect it until recently. It's been puzzling to say the least, and I

didn't want to post about it until now because i wasn't positive, but after a

few stops and starts it does seem, that for my son digestive enzymes enhance the

results of the NV.

For those of you with younger children, the NV and fish oils would probably be

enough. And if my son had started this before he had any words i would be

reporting increased babble or attempts as speech and would have been thrilled

with that.

I don't have any idea why the enzymes seem to make a difference for him, i'm

perplexed to say the least. If anyone has any ideas about this I'd love to

hear

them.

Either way, I love what NV has done for my son and wish it was around when i

started this journey oh so long ago!

hope that answers the question! (have a really big headache right now, so not

thinking so clearly!!)

Hi Traci, sorry it took so long to reply.

Yes, my son has those processing issues too and there are things that he just

doesn't get. while his reading is getting better, we're having to take baby

steps when it comes to comprehending what it is he's reading. His speech

seemed

to really take off in the past couple of years (he's 11) and lately his speech

has gotten a lot more complex It seems that once his speech comes, we find

another problem that we couldn't have known about prior because his speech

wasn't there.Â

These last few months have been the biggest change in his speech. We've done

the fish oils for years, but have added the NV with a digestive enzyme. It

seems, for him at least, that this combo works really well.

 would you mind my asking what you have your daughter on?
