Re: Re: Moodiness and tantrums with chelation this weekend

[Guest guest]

Chelation seems sort of like peeling an onion, there are layers. Some weeks it's

easy sailing, and others are very rough.

It's almost as if the metals are coming out in waves, and when they do it causes

yeast and other issues.

I'm sure Andy or somebody could explain it technically, but that is just my

personal experience with my boys.

Subject: [ ] Re: Moodiness and tantrums with chelation this weekend

Thanks TJ and Irene. I have stopped this round today. I will bump up our yeast

protocol a bit and see if that helps.

Irene, I believe I have tried adrenal cortex in the past, but for some reason I

thought it was activating (maybe the dose was too high). I am willing to try it

again. I have Adrenal Cortex Natural Glandular that is 250mg capsules. She is a

very sensitive reactor, so I was thinking about 1/4 capsule (or even smaller).

Would I give that once/day (I remember mornings being better so as to not

interfere with sleep).

daughter is very moody, throwing tantrums like we haven't seen since starting

chelation. We haven't made any changes to supplements or diet. We did miss 3

rounds of chelation due to vacation and very busy weekend schedules, but we

started back 2 weeks ago without any big problems. I'm wondering about a few

things: I mix ALA in juice, it is refrigerated during day but I haven't been

keeping it cool at night, and it has been pretty hot here (esp since our AC is

in the process of being repaired.) Does it need to be kept cool? Also, I have

been mixing it with o.j. but just recently read that pineapple or lemon is

better d/t acidity content. However, I have been using o.j. all along, and

haven't had problems up until now.

getting up to urinate. Again, this has happened in the past, and she has been

ruled out for urinary tract infections many times. Once she falls asleep she is

fine. Sounds maybe like an adrenal issue, but I hate to add another supplement

to the mix until I can figure out what has thrown her off.
