Blog: An interactive journey to find alternative answers...for my
It's been 5 days, and a busy group at that.
He is agitated, mostly because we don't 'do' halloween and his class does. Very confusing.
Last night we started the supplements Gaba and L-tyrosine. The first is 750mg/1cap at night on an empty stomach, and the other is 500mg at the same time. Then they (we) all take our vitC to prevent colds and such.
It's been a long haul as the little one has pneumonia again. Seems like he and his sister at this age get a cold and it goes right into the lungs. Really bad deal, but the fever broke, and the breathing treatments are working. I'm upping his vit C gradually with hope for a healthy winter. He's two, he's little and pale and it breaks my heart.
Back to the point of this blog. The Gaba takes time, but he was really mellow this a.m. and last night slept well, so maybe just the thought of a 'med' makes him feel better. I'm taking the Gaba also, same dosage. I found it at our local health food store--great deal, and near by!
Have a great day, and I'll probably update this evening if I get a chance.

Hi #58811
If you read many of my posts, you know I am a fan of drinking pine needle tea and drink it every day, the best part is its free!
Pine needle tea is also taken for flu and also as a flu preventive.
You may have read about people buying and hoarding the famous anti-flu medicine called "Tamiflu" in anticipation of the bird flu virus. Guess what! The main ingredient for Tamiflu comes from pine needles.
Examples:

The pine tree has many medicinal advantages. The needles and bark are useful for many medicinal problems.
In the randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled study, Pycnogenol helped reduce hyperactivity and improve attention, concentration and motor-visual coordination in children with ADHD.
"These findings are especially notable for parents who are concerned about overmedicating children diagnosed with ADHD. Many families are seeking natural options to avoid the potentially dangerous side effects of prescription drugs," said Dr. Peter Rohdewald, Institute of Pharmaceutical Chemistry at Germany's University of Munster and one of the authors of the study.
