started new supps - when to see results?

January 13, 2008

Hi again. After going over the lab results, I now have my son on

some new stuff, hopefully will see good reactions, but not sure if

dosing is enough or what to really look for.

please let me know if I should be not doing some of these things in

the combinations that I am doing them in. Here's the data:

we are giving 2x daily 1 capsule of culturelle, which I think is

lactobacillus rhamnosus. Also 2x daily 1 capsule of s. boulardii.

Mixed in with that is Twinlab Yeast Fighters, which includes biotin

and paud'arco and other yeast fighters. We mix that in with the

Twinlab MCT oil, 2 TBS or more, some pure mango puree and a dollop

of yogurt. We sometimes add some liquid vitamin C to this too.

He is willing to drink it without the yogurt too. Is it okay that

he gets the probiotics at the same time as the yeast fighters? is

it okay that it is mixed in with the mango puree and MCT and yogurt?

The s. boulardii does not mix up like the sedona labs probiotics

does.

I could not get him to take the biotin tablets, even though they are

small and we tried the oralflo cup. So the only biotin he is

getting is through the TL yeast fighters.

The good news is he likes the taste of the MCT and the liq. Vit. C.

The bad news is he won't touch the schiff buffered Vit. C that I

have a full bottle of.

His behaviors at home and school, since starting on the sedona labs

probiotic, has been less attentive and more tantrums, crying fits,

at home, since we started.

We did give him activated charcoal, one capsule, two times so far on

different days. I am not sure if it helped or not. It was after he

was just losing it at home. We mixed it with a splash of OJ.

We have not done feingold or salicilate free. We do watch for BHT

and other additives and colors though.

Any ideas on whether I am giving him enough supps and when I may see

a beneficial difference in his behavior and attention?

Thanks for your support. I still can try the GSE and I am sure

there is much more.
