digestive enzymes. gut health. neurologyDigestive enzymes have been a great help

for my child. They are relatively inexpensive and as far as I can tell have no

side effects. If they don't do anything helpful -- they don't do anything

harmful either.

We use Zyme Prime, No Fenol and AFP Pep from Houston's. They are great.

HI ,

My son has only been on enzymes for 3 months now and our hope is that

enzymes will help in the healing of his gut as well. He was on a

strict GFCF and SF diet for a few months, but since using enzymes, I

have found that he can tolerate milk products, soy products, and some

gluten products with little to no reaction. We can only do the best

that we can do. There is a great quote by Theodore Roosevelt, " Do what

you can, Where you are, With what you have. " You can't do any more

than that. We, as parents, want so much for our children to reach

their full potential and feel that if we can't take EVERY measure,

then we are failing them. You are trying your best, and you are taking

the necessary measures for your dd. If she won't eat anything on a

restrictive diet, then don't force it. Try the enzymes first and see

how it goes. Good luck and try to not get overwhelmed. I sometimes

think we all need to be reminded of that every once and a while.

What do you think the max dose of OLE and GSE is for someone 19yo and 160

pounds?

How long do you think it can be done?

Thanks
