Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Hi Bernice, The one thing I do not see listed that is very important for a child who is dairy-free is a calcium supplement. I believe the recommended allowance is 1000 mg/day for a child of this age. Make sure there are no dairy products in the calcium supplement, and watch out for artificial colors, flavors, gluten, and other additives as well. Make sure he is getting enough Vitamin D at the same time as the calcium so it gets metabolized. Hope this helps. From: bernice.barbosa <dat1uluvzz@...> Subject: Started The Gcf...now do I... Date: Friday, June 27, 2008, 3:45 PM Hi everyone, I recently started the GCF diet And giving my 3 yr old enzymes and hes on the omega 3-6-9. I'm about to start giving him Juice Plus gummies which are vitamins from fruits and veggies and he will be starting probotics soon. My question is Do you think There Is any vitamins I'm leaving out , Or should I add in. His behavior has improved within a few days of changing his food and including the omega not so much his speech but its only been a few days, Any suggestions would be great thks! ------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Hi Bernice, We use Cal Snacks (Country Life, they're Chewables) that have Calcium, Magnesium, and a little D (not enough of the last, but she gets it in her multivitamin). We have used Twinlabs CalQuick (liquid) that, if I remember right, had the D but not the magnesium. There are others out there, but again, read the labels carefully.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I listed my daughter's supplements here http://wakingsophie.com/sophias-current-supplements/ These are all supplements that I started one at a time and built up dosage. My DAN Doctor added a few and the prescriptions. God bless, > > Hi everyone, > > I recently started the GCF diet And giving my 3 yr old enzymes > and hes on the omega 3-6-9.
