Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 My DAN dr who is an herbalist suggested 3 days on (DMSA +ALA) and 11 days off (using the days off to supplement the system with lots of other things)....my 7 yr old was such a champ and handled the first 3 days well and we were actually able to potty train for the first time and he got it!!!!

Has anyone seen " weird " things coming out of the urine while chelating? Seeds in the urine could be kidney stones or mineral deposits in the urinary tract. I speculate that the chelation helped to break down these deposits. I have read, and heard from our doctors, that it is important for the child to have an adequate detox pathways prior to chelation. In your child's case, a hepatic detox remedy might be helpful. http://ezinearticle <http://ezinearticles.com/?You-Can-Dissolve-Kidney-Stones-Safely-and-Natural ly---Heres-How & id=611414> s.com/?You-Can-Dissolve-Kidney-Stones-Safely-and-Naturally---Heres-How & id=61 1414 >>> Is this what to expect during chelation? Or does that mean we are doing something wrong? We observed massive Candida yeast elimination during chelation - particularly with DMPS chelation. This can be a deep rooted problem known as " biofilm " , that surfaces during the treatments. http://tinyurl. <http://tinyurl.com/Usman-Autism> com/Usman-Autism --penumbra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 This is what to expect from improper chelation and challenge tests, which is what you are doing from the sounds of it. The side effects you are seeing are the result of metals being re-distributed, causing more damage to the brain and organs. The correct way to chelate is using low and frequent dosing. It takes longer, but it is safe. Please read the FAQs you got when you joined the group and also go to the files section and read about the Andy Cutler chelation protocol. Please stop and learn about safe and effective chelation. Question your doctor - they are not always right. Wasn't it a doctor who injected mercury and other metals into your child in the first place? Wasn't it a dentist who installed mercury into all our teeth? Stop listening to these people and learn for yourself before you make your child even worse.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 No bad reactions if the protocol is followed properly. Sometimes you will need to adjust the dose or the supporting supplements for comfort. A reliable test for heavy metals is a hair test and then apply Andy's Counting rules to determine mercury toxicity.

Would there be no reactions if Andy Cutler's protocol is followed? Per McCandless' book and Autism Research Institute site, provoked DMSA test seem to be acceptable.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 No....I gave him DMSA 3x/day (this works better for us)....my 7 yr old doesn't drink if woken up and dosen't swallow pills.....I have to say that I am really impressed with the results....he was very social today and very happy!!!! On the off days, I am giving him essential oils that are chelating and 3 doses of his vitamin a day, mag citrate for colon health, essential oils and nystatin for yeast, glutathione, goji juice and enzymes for immunity and digestion..... He has a very different approach that seems to suite my son....

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I read your other post as well. This is improper chelation, that is why you are not seeing any results. - The dose is too high and too infrequent. Max dose for you boy should be 1/2 mg per pound of body weight and you should give it every 4 hours, day and night. Please read about the Andy Cutler protocol. You should start out at about 1/8 mg per pond of body weight. Most of us do a 3 day on and 4 day off round. We start on Friday night nad end Monday morning. This works around the school schedule. You also need to give supporting supplements and have a yeast fighting protocol in place. If you add ALA you need to give that every three hours during the day and four hours at night. ALA is important because it will remove metals from the brain.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 In the meantime, stop chelating. Read about the Andy cutler protocol. 400mg is a huge dose. Max dose for your son would be 50mg every four hours, day and night. Most of us go for three days like this, then let the body rest for four days. Starting Friday afternoon after school and going to Monday morning. If your doctor will not support you on this, get a new doctor. Many of us chelate without a doctor.
