Re: Yeast - backwards? - UPDATE

January 12, 2008

From what I read in Children with Starving Brain, many of these children have

not only problems with an over growth of yeast but also Clostridia or other bad

bacteria. The author said that if a child has both that it is best to treat the

bad bacteria with an antibiotic like Flagyl and also treat the yeast at the same

time to wipe both out then afterwards really dose high with good probiotics.

If you treat the bad bacteria alone, then yeast can grow in its place and if

you treat the yeast alone then the bad bacteria can grow in its place.

I think I may have found out the reason why my son responded so well

trying to sign, trying to verbalize, responding well to OT and speech

therapy)......

In a round about way I found out about leaky gut syndrome today.

After spending the last 3 hours on the 'net researching this and

comparing to when/how my twin sons act - I think they BOTH have a

problem with this.

It makes sense to me that if the gut is leaking a bunch of toxic

stuff into their bloodstreams, then antibiotics would not only clear

up their infection, but the baddies from the leaky gut as well.

I spoke with a woman today that lives in my city that found a DAN dr.

here in N.CA. She is a client of Alta Regional and my caseworker & I

were talking and I mentioned that I am looking for one. She

apparently gave this woman my phone# and voila...we got to talking &

tlaking some more about various protocols and she mentioned the leaky

gut thing when I told her about the antibiotics.

Isn't it amazing how things work out and information lands in our

laps?

Anyway...I will keep you all posted as to how this turns out. I

haven't received ANY return phone calls (2) from the pede or the

neuro (1) who is supposedly " our autism champion " ..uhhuh. LOL
