Wow, my thoughts are that woman was very lucky! Only 2 months of

DMSA?! I can't imagine that happens very often.

That was also one of my thoughts too, unless of course, if she stopped

prematurely.

What else does Melatonin do for our children besides help with sleep?  My child

doesn't have problems with sleep.  Should I beusing it for something else? 

Thanks for the response.

It's an anti-oxidant as well.

===Not necessarily - using it regardless. that is...Maybe..if you can

make any connections with serotonin, or pineal gland issues.

Melatonin is part of serotonin metabolism, and melatonin is (produced)

in the pineal gland. wishing you the best, elizabeth

[Guest guest]

If serotonin is an issue, then it is worth considering precursors like

tryptophan and 5HTP.

This could also be helpful with anxiety and mood among other things.

Food sources of tryptophan include chicken, beef, soya beans, spinach,

almonds, walnuts, and many more.

What's with melatonin now? Yesterday a study came out that it helped with the

inflammation that is in uveitis, the vision threatening eye disease that my

daughter has. They said that melatonin acted with anti inflammatory properties.

Well melatonin acts in the brain...and autism is considered by some to be

brain/gut inflammation so there might be something to this. I am on a lymes

disease group now and they use melatonin to kill pathogens in their brain.

so I give my daughter with uveitis melatonin tonight, a chewable we had, only I

didn't notice it had mint in it, so I antidoted her homeopathic remedy. What a

dope!!! Anyhow....melatonin....I want to read more about it.

[Guest guest]

quick related thought to 's vision/uveitis post - Strictly

anecdotal - because my daughters' migraines went down, her sleep

became " normal, " her clunking/stumbling type of walking dramatically

improved (a connect to the vision), her need for melatonin JUST to

sleep at all " went away, " - all these, when we eliminated as many

(environmental) fluoride, aluminum & tin sources as I could come up

with...I consider fluoride huge, with aluminum right there with

it...fluoride accumulates in pineal gland, much more than in bones,

etc and aluminum is a great carrier for aluminum (go figure, eh) -

these two are big nasties, imho...avoiding these has given us our best

results (to date). I have rather zero tolerance for these. There can

be some rather noticeable regressions, whenever I reintroduce

previously " banned " things, of this sort - eating canned foods/cooking

with teflon comes to mind. Other people's food, pretty much sums it

up, big sigh...It seems we have no tolerance for such things & these,

among the other banned things, will most likely remain " banned " at my

house. And, insult to injury - mercury just compounds & increases the

whole big mess of it all. urg. super urg & a growl...wishing all the

best, elizabeth

We avoid fluoride and aluminum here also!
