Guest guest Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I have been giving my son Intestimend per our DAN's request. Why are you supposed to give it 30 min before meals? I noticed there is Biotin in there...just wondering what exactly Intestimend does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 We've never used intestimend before, but I give my child biotin to fight yeast (along with magnesium to support it, also to calm) Leigh I noticed there is Biotin > in there...just wondering what exactly Intestimend does. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 We started using IntestiMend recently. When I asked at Brainchild, they said to use it after getting yeast under control- it is meant to help the gut heal once things like yeast are under control (it heals the leakiness of the gut I think). It also offers a lot of sulfation support, so it is really helpful for phenol reactions. With my NT son who is EXTREMELY phenol sensitive, it can stop a bad reaction in just a few minutes. I won't be without it! -Sierra > > I have been giving my son Intestimend per our DAN's request. Why are > you supposed to give it 30 min before meals?

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Leigh, Dana, Anyone... What type of Magnesium do you give with the biotin? How much? Thanks, Misty Re: What exactly is Intestimend for??

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Oh, thank you so much for responding I had gone on the Brainchild website and totally didn't understand what it was supposed to be doing. You've explained it much better. I can't seem to get it in 30 min before he eats, but I will try harder Thanks again! > > > > I have been giving my son Intestimend per our DAN's request.

I have used both oxide and citrate, and both of them worked here. I started with 400mg and worked up as required. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
