Hi All,
I have been using this resource for about 6 months now and I am very happy with all the great information that I have received, but I have been searching for some help with my 4 year old nephew and have not found anything so far. He is very overweight and just seems to be growing at a crazy rate. He has been to the dr many times and has had many tests at University of Michigan. They have found nothing. My sister is pretty good at monitoring his food, they eat semi-healthy and she does not let him snack. but he keeps gaining weight. Here are some issues we have noticed:
~Rapid Weight/Height gain - he weighs 86 pounds
~Extreme Hunger - is always saying he is hungry
~Extreme thirst - he drinks good quantities of water all day.
~Sensitive to sunlight - this is better this year
~Eczema/Rashes and mosquito magnet (gets large welts)
~Speech issues, but has been doing better with a therapist.
~Very happy-go-lucky personality and is constantly moving!
~Pretty susceptible to colds - runny noses, ear aches
I am going to be babysitting a few days this summer and my sister is open to trying a few homeopathic remedies, if anyone knows any. Have any suggestions for me? I have access to a Frequency Generator and Ozone. I have also purchased items like Lugol's iodine, MMS, Humaworm, VitC, PH testing, etc (Not sure how open he would be to taking vitamin/etc orally)
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!!! Thanks
Is he on any medications, especially any steroids for the eczema? Eczema can be treated successfully with digestive bitters to help cleanse the liver and building up the adrenals. Bitters can also help with with many causes of weight gain.
His basal body temperature should also be checked to rule out thyroid problems. Instructions can be found on the web.
Some of his symptoms also point to possible diabetes or pre-diabetes. Just to be on the safe side I also recommend chromium polynicotinate (not picolinate) 200mcg 3 times daily with meals. He should also have a glucose tolerance and AC1 test done if these have not been done already.
There is a start until more information is obtained.
