Down from 31 Supplements to 15
In case you missed it, the applied kinesiologist is able to get feedback from one's body on a particular supplement. In "muscle testing," the body shows muscle weakness right after being exposed to a substance, if it is bad for you. Conversely,the muscles are not weak and even strengthened if it is good for you, what your body needs.
Things seem quite a bit simpler than they were. How on earth do you keep track of when 31 supplements are running out and you need to re-order? I didn't have that one figured out. Also I was very suspicious of some of them, especially the RNA, which was unbelievably expensive, like $5 a day. I am so glad he doesn't need that. I am very relieved.
Mike seems calmer now. He did have a blow-up, hollering at me, right after my last post when I said it had been a while. Figures. So he does have some episodes. But they are fewer. He is also doing considerably better in school, but a huge factor in that is the fact that he now has an IEP, as of mid-December, and an aide to help him out in several of his classes. (He is a freshman at the local public high school.)
He is still on a somewhat low-protein diet, perhaps 45 grams per day most days.
Here are the supplements he is taking:
Multi vitamin, Neuro-Health Formula
Methyl B-12
Riboflavin 5-Phosphate
Pantothenic Acid
Quercetin
Vitamin C
Policosanol
Phosphatidyl Serine
Udo's 3-6-9 Oil
Molybdenum Piccolinate
Magnesium Citrate
Ora-Adren 80 (crushed cow adrenals)
Ambrotose
Curcumin
Yucca
