Newbie not sure which approach to use

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I joined the group about two weeks ago, I have a almost 4 year who has

Autism and SPD.

I would like to start Enzymes on him. My son can not take any

supplements or vitamins of any kinds. When I try to give him these he

becomes extremely violent, more defiant and just all around worse.

with this i am very nervous to start the Enzymes. I have read both

books by Defelice.

I am trying to figure out if it would be better to start with " the

Great low-N-Slow Method " or just start with very small doses of a

higher Protease enzymes.

Has any one else experienced not being able to give their child

supplements and had successes with enzymes? if so could you share how

you did it.

I tried to post last week and the post never came thru, it that post

shows up sorry for the duplication and it can be ignored.

Thank you,

Emma

I think I would try with enzymes first. Houston makes a chewable or there are

tips on opening up a capsule and hiding in yummy treats. Are you doing any

diet? Feingold, GFCF? Enzymes really helped my guy first. Once I saw the

difference, I got fully on board with more, adding a probiotic, a yeast protocol

and Brainchild Nutritionals.

BTW, call and get samples.

Hi Emma,

If you notice that he is very sensitive to many supplements I think

the " low and slow " method would be best. In her book " Enzymes: Go

With You Gut " recommends starting off with a low protease

digestive enzyme. She mentions Enzymedica's Lacto. Enzymedica has

just come out with a new digestive product called DigestBasic. It

also is very low in Protease but has higher amounts of the other

needed enzymes when compared to Lacto. I would start off with that

one and then work your way up to DigestGold & GlutenEase which is

much higher in proteases.

Low amounts of a high protease enzyme is ok to take with meals but it

usually doesn't contain the other enzymes to Digest the rest of the

foods. For instance Virastop is a very high protease product but

doesn't contain Lipase for fat digestion.

Unless you are thinking of a product more like DigestGold. That way

you are dealing with one product the entire time and working your way

up from 1/4 capsule to one full capsule.

Please feel free to ask me any other questions or if you need me to

clarify anything.
