Help tweaking hyperactivity, bio-kult, VSL#3?

[Guest guest]

Hey all. I need some help and in the past this group has always been

there. Thank you so much for that. I am wanting to fine tune and tweak

our current regime of supps and whatnot. We are still having

hyperactivity and attention/focus problems that I would like to

address. We occasionally still have yeast flares as well. Stool is

still not as formed as we would like but part of that is because we

are doing teh Vit K protocol which releases oxalates and contributes

to the loose stools. We still can't add in many foods. We still have

issues with salicylates. After doing the SCD intro back in June, now

over 6 months later, we still can't tolerate many stage one or two

foods. Our diet is extremely lacking, our main source of carbs coming

from squash and carrots. There has to be something I'm missing,

something I haven't addressed here that is holding my son from

progressing and being able to tolerate more advanced foods. Here is

what we are currently doing:

Enzymes: Zyme Prime with all meals and snacks. AFP Pep with

meals/snacks containing goat cheese. (These have been priceless for us

and probably one of the most important things we are doing)

Probiotics: SCDophulus (3 billion) l. acidophulus per day. Also

homemade SCD yogurt made with progurt, 6 teaspoons a day. And s.

boulardii once a day when we remember.

Magnesium glycinate, 800 mg per day

Zinc, 20 mg per day

Vit K2, 1 mg every other day

CLO: Green pastures with butter oil, 4 mls equal to 20,000 IU vit A

per day and 2,000 vit D per day. Also contains a decent load of EPA

and DHA.

Melatonin: 3mg before bedtime

SCD: strict, by the book since June 07, (were SCD before that starting

the year prior but not doing the stages, just ate legal foods only).

Currently we can barely tolerate stage one foods (pecanbread.com stages).

So, if I may tap into the wisdom of the group, what helped with

hyperactive and focus/attention problems for you? What helped with

tolerating a wider range of foods? Looking at what we are doing, what

would you suggest that we add? I am looking to add in more probiotics

by increasing the yogurt, but I'm on the fence about trying a non-SCD

probiotic like Bio-Kult or VSL#3. I would love to hear others

experiences, good or bad, about those two probiotics in particular.

Thank you so much for any help and suggestions you can offer.
