my son has been having recurrent ear
infections--because the fluid in his
ears wont' drain... any ways i can get
them to stay \unplugged\" so that they
dont' get infected? he will be 3 next
week." |
|
13:07:37 |
mschiara |
hi there am i in the right place ?? |
|
13:07:48 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Bonzette16 Stop antibiotics. Three types
of treatment can help. First is
homeopathy with a qualified homeopath.
Second is Chinese medicine, especially
herbs formulated for kids by Chinese
Modular Solutions. Third is cranal
manipulation. |
|
13:08:06 |
Bonzette16 |
do you mean chiropractic? |
|
13:08:23 |
RandallNeustaedter |
You also want to maintain a healthy
immune system and build resistance to
the viruses out there to prevent new
colds. |
|
13:08:24 |
Bonzette16 |
i've tried so many things, including
what's on your website, and nothing
seems to help this far. |
|
13:08:30 |
Webmama_Tina |
sorry, had to go to my kids for a sec |
|
13:08:32 |
Webmama_Tina |
ok back |
|
13:08:33 |
Webmama_Tina |
:) |
|
13:08:50 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Some chiros are trained in cranio-sacral
techniques. Many osteopaths are also. |
|
13:09:17 |
Bonzette16 |
and this should avoid having tubes? |
|
13:09:38 |
Bonzette16 |
or adenoids removed? i've had a hard
time locating a good osteopath in my
area |
|
13:09:40 |
RandallNeustaedter |
For persistent fluid in the ears it is
important to get constitutional
treatment. And I see kids all the time
who are scheduled for tubes and never
need them. |
|
13:10:04 |
Bonzette16 |
thank you |
|
13:10:15 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Try finding a website for those trained
by John Upledger for osteopaths. |
|
13:10:23 |
Webmama_Tina |
mschiara, did you have a question for
the dr? |
|
13:10:24 |
Bonzette16 |

|
13:10:35 |
mschiara |

13:10:39 |

mschiara |
i was wondering if there is anything
that i can do as far as nutrition or
homeopaths that i can give her to keep
her from getting sick |
|
13:12:34 |
mschiara |
just a little nervous because of all the
moldy garbage from people cleaning out
their houses since the flood |
|
13:12:37 |
mschiara |
?? |
|
13:13:01 |
RandallNeustaedter |
mschiara On my website and in my books
Child Health Guide and Flu you will find
protocols for immune system enhancement
in children. |
|
13:13:17 |
Webmama_Tina |
drat, i think i may have accidentally
turned off the typing button...and i
also didn't turn off the
ins/outs...argh, always do that...lemme
fix that |
|
13:13:53 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Supplements include Vitamins A,D, and C.
And a good omega-3 fish oil supplement. |
|
13:14:29 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Other supplements include a mushroom
formula, and cow's colostrum. |
|
13:14:35 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Are you still breastfeeding? |
|
13:15:19 |
mschiara |
well... i was unable to breastfeed fully
... only for a month |
|
13:15:34 |
mschiara |
i didn't produce enough... |
|
13:15:45 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Then colostrum would be good or another
lactoferrin type supplement. |
|
13:16:01 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Sounds like she is very healthy and she
should be fine. |
|
13:16:09 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Next. |
|
13:16:41 |
Webmama_Tina |
i don't have anyone currently in
line...if you have a question for the dr
please let me know by typing a single
question mark :) |
|
13:16:51 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
I was curious if there were any herbs to
relax my son at night so he can go right
to sleep? |
|
13:17:34 |
Webmama_Tina |
woops |
|
13:17:36 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
whoops, sorry |
|
13:17:54 |
Webmama_Tina |
ok i turned off the entrances/exits, so
if they are bothering you, you can
refresh the page and log back in to make
them go away |
|
13:18:04 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
I get booted a lot in here.. |
|
13:18:15 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Chinese Modular Solutions makes a great
formula for children called Quiet Calm.
Very gentle and soothing. It needs to be
prescribed by a licensed practitioner
but anyone can get it from kanherb.com
with a prescription. |
|
13:18:17 |
Webmama_Tina |
don't know why the typing indicator
isn't working though...its
enabled...have to ask tech support about
that |
|
13:18:29 |
Webmama_Tina |
kameron, hm, i'll have to ask tech
support about that...talk to you later
about it ;) |
|
13:18:38 |
Webmama_Tina |
he's probably refreshing |
|
13:18:40 |
Webmama_Tina |
he'll be right back |
|
13:18:41 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
ok |
|
13:18:41 |
Webmama_Tina |

|
13:19:01 |
Webmama_Tina |

|
13:19:03 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |

|
13:19:05 |
Webmama_Tina |

Webmama_Tina |

Kameron-N-Madelyn |

13:19:40 |
Webmama_Tina |
there we go :) |
|
13:19:53 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
ok.. |
|
13:20:09 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
So I would need his dr to prescribe it? |
|
13:20:53 |
RandallNeustaedter |
A chiropractor, acupuncturist, ND, or
MD. |
|
13:21:30 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
ok |
|
13:21:37 |
RandallNeustaedter |
I would not give herbs like Valerian or
St. John's Wort to a child. |
|
13:21:48 |
RandallNeustaedter |
next |
|
13:22:55 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Are you there Tina? |
|
13:22:59 |
Webmama_Tina |
yup sorry |
|
13:23:05 |
Webmama_Tina |
had more kid issues, argh...but i'm
back! |
|
13:23:36 |
Webmama_Tina |
i don't have anyone in line...lets talk
about getting an immune system boost
during this cold/flu season while we
wati for more questions, shall we? |
|
13:24:00 |
Webmama_Tina |
if you have a question for the dr,
please post a single question mark and i
will tell you when its your turn |
|
13:24:17 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Well the things I said before are the
best supplements. |
|
13:24:25 |
Webmama_Tina |
so dr, last time we had a list of
herbs/treatments that we talked about to
get ours and our children's immune
systems up and ready to figh |
|
13:24:34 |
Webmama_Tina |
yes but unfortunately, that transcript
was lost :( |
|
13:24:51 |
Webmama_Tina |
technical error due to my annoying email
client marking it as spam, argh |
|
13:25:09 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Breastfeeding, cows colostrum, vitamins
a, d, and c, mushroom formula. |
|
13:25:10 |
Webmama_Tina |
which is why i don't have the email
client anymore so i'm trying to replace
what we lost :) |
|
13:25:40 |
Webmama_Tina |
last time you recommended certain brands
as well. :) could you refresh us on
that? |
|
13:26:01 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
one more question? My ds always looks
tired but gets enough sleep. His dr said
he was sleep deprived in sept, but he's
not. Is there a vitamin u can give a 2
yr old ? |
|
13:26:04 |
Webmama_Tina |
(and mamas, remember if you have a
question, please post a single question
mark) |
|
13:26:11 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Cod liver oil (Carlson's lemon tastes
the best) |
|
13:26:56 |
Webmama_Tina |
ok kameron, when the dr's done with this
question on immune systems, we'll get to
your question :) |
|
13:27:04 |
Webmama_Tina |
that's a good one too! :) |
|
13:27:11 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Any fish oil Nordic Naturals is good. I
like the ProDHA for kids because it has
250 mg DHA, much more than the DHA
Juniors. |
|
13:27:17 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
ok, thanks.. (sorry) |
|
13:27:21 |
Webmama_Tina |
no worries :) |
|
13:27:32 |
Webmama_Tina |
ok so dr all of those things together? |
|
13:27:42 |
Webmama_Tina |
you explain all this in detail in one of
your books, correct? |
|
13:27:45 |
Kameron-N-Madelyn |
do they make like a gummy or chewable? |
|
13:27:47 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Any A and D derived from fish is good.
But you don't need to give those if kids
are taking cod liver oil. |
|
13:28:12 |
Webmama_Tina |
can you explain exactly what cod liver
oil benefits are? |
|
13:28:18 |
Webmama_Tina |
that would be interesting to know |
|
13:28:21 |
Webmama_Tina |
:) |
|
13:28:28 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Otherwise give 400-800 IU vit D. |
|
13:28:30 |
Webmama_Tina |
i have an idea, but i'm sure there are
others that don't know at all |
|
13:28:52 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Fish oil is important to prevent
inflammation in cell membranes (mucus
membranes). |
|
13:29:01 |
RandallNeustaedter |
A and D for immune system function. |
|
13:29:53 |
Webmama_Tina |
great! |
|
13:30:06 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Fish oil is really essential for brain
development as well. And solely
breastfeeding kids will get enough
omega-3 fats if the mom is taking a fish
oil supplement. |
|
13:30:17 |
RandallNeustaedter |
All of this info is in my book Child
Health Guide. |
|
13:30:17 |
Webmama_Tina |
and i think kameron what exactly were
you asking was available in gummy or
chewable? |
|
13:30:43 |
RandallNeustaedter |
I don't think gummies are necessary. The
dosage is usually very low. |
|
13:30:46 |
Webmama_Tina |
awesome, i'm putting that on my list of
books to buy very soon! by the way, i
HIGHLY recommend the good dr's \the
vaccine guide\" book...VERY
enlightening!" |
|
13:31:01 |
Webmama_Tina |
oh that made me think of another
question, but kameron has one first :) |
|
13:31:04 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Do not give chewable vitamin C. It eats
away emanel. |
|
13:31:13 |
Webmama_Tina |
oh good to know! |
|
13:31:14 |
RandallNeustaedter |
enamel |
