APPROACHING A CHILD THERAPEUTICALLY:
Start with Removing “negatives"
- Clearing away "debris” / illness
- Potential food sensitizing agents
- Any agent / protein stimulating a negative immune reaction
Attempt to “normalize” a child’s nutritional state
- “Stressed” body - nutritional supplements may help BUT . . .
- Approach this area with skepticism and caution
- No controlled trials - long term safety?
- Is a "harmless" agent OK in large amounts??
- Dangers:
- Product concerns (re: absorption, purity,
over/under -dosage,etc.)
- Nutritional manipulation
- metabolic problems, vs.potential gains
