Guest guest Posted January 28, 2001 Report Share Posted January 28, 2001 Is Maitake D Fraction a good source of the beta glucan? Hi Angie, I'm really not much of an expert. It could well be but I am not sure. Dr. Borman on cures for cancer has a good source of Beta Glucan and there are probably others, but I don't reall know about that which you mention.

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Debby, Glad you got through your surgery and hope the recovery goes well. As for having staples removed, mine were taken out on my 8th day.. I had the longer incision. I didn't use any neosporin or anything else on the incision, but this is something you should discuss with your dr. They also allowed my family dr to remove the sutures so I didn't have to travel 3 and 1/2 hours for that one. Again.. clinics differ as to when one can shower, wash hair and the like. I did wash my hair the 3rd day after surgery, but had my hubby put a towel over the incision and wash the rest of my hair. I was told not to get the incision site wet till after staples were out. I wore a loose fitting shower cap till the staples came out and was able to shower right away.. taking care not to get my head wet. Take care and rest up.. is good that you are getting by with Tylenol, but be sure to take the stronger pain meds if needed. I think my older sister took one pain pill after she came home just so she would be sure of getting a good nights rest the first night home. After that, she took Tylenol. I however needed the pain meds for about 4 days and was about a week or so till I felt more like my old self. Hope everything goes well for you and looking forward to hearing about your progress.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Hi! Every body : WE have been doing biomedical for almost a year[ MB12 and Dr. N. multivitamin/ mineral powder] with very good results. 5-6 wks. ago my 4 yrs. old daughter decided that she does not want to take her supplements. Therefore from last may be 2 months we are not giving her any thing. No Mb 12 and no multivitamins/minerals. I thought that she would regress but the case turned out to be the other way round. She is infact doing a lot better now. Lot more normal speech and conversation , No tantrums, very happy and co-operative child. I am really confused. Dr. Neubrander says that ultimately these kids regress without MB 12 and other supplements where as my daughter is doing really good withpout them. She goes to an integrated pre-school program where she receives SP. and OT twice a wk. School seems to help her a lot. My question is ' Should I start every thing again or I just continue like this. Your help and guidance is extrmely appriciated Thanks Manju Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Hi, Same here. But after six months, my son started having absence seizures. Not sure if it is a coincidence or not. He also developped new food allergies. I re-introduced the " basics " (enzymes, probiotics, vit C, vit E, epsom salts...) but very slowly and one at a time. I had to stop some supplements he used to take with no problems because he now reacts to them. I know there are things he needs but cannot tolerate (or I cannot tolerate the side effects). For instance, he gets mean and defiant with CoQ10, vit E, lauricidin, fatty acids... I would re-introduce the ones you think are important to your child and see how she does. Good luck! > > Hi!

My son did well with mB12 until he no longer needed it, then it started causing problems. Apparently, you and I know more about our kids than Dr. N, which is not surprising. > School seems to help her a lot. My question is ' Should I start every thing again or I just > continue like this. I would continue like this, if she does better this way. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 --- Dana, Thanks a lot for replying. Your mail makes me feel better. I am not going to re introduce the supplements unless I see any regression. Thanks again Manju > > > 5-6 wks. ago my 4 yrs. old daughter decided that she does not want > to take her > > supplements. > > > My #3 would refuse supplements when they caused him problems.
