Week 4 OLE, last update!

Help! I just gave ds 500 mg of OLE for the 1st time. I gave it to him with nightly vitamins and probiotics which was probably not wise. He's asleep now but turned white as a sheet and was very upset thinking he was going to vomit. I suspect yeast overgrowth so I wanted to give it a try. What the heck did I do? Is this die-off? I gave him charcoal/bentonite clay combo but he still looked pale but now is sleeping.

 

Your thoughts?

this is just a thought....

have you ever tried to do all the pills/supps our kids do.....

i take some and my stomach gets upset.....and when my stomach gets upset...which is RARE....i can feel the color leave my face....

so...i would not lay down as soon as i take some of them and for others there might need to be a good base of food..ie rice,crackers....

I agree with fixit, his face got pale b/c he was nauseous. OLE is known for doing that, so many ppl recommend taking it with food (oops, did I forget to mention that?? ). But then there are ppl/sites who recommend it on empty stomach b/c herbs are more effective that way. When I first gave it to my boys they got nauseous so I try to give with food. When I forget they don't complain anymore, maybe they got used to it?

 

Also, I wouldn't give with probiotics b/c the OLE will kill them possibly. And another thing, maybe you should start with a lower dose and then increase b/c there is always the possibility of yeast/viral die-off which can be unpleasant (but I am of the mind set of "lets just get this over with" ).

He had somewhat of a full belly. It probably wasnt a good idea to give with his probioitc. I truly believe there was some die off going on. He woke up this morning saying he still felt yucky but I gave him some food and he was laughing and talking so I told him that he was going to school and he gave me the "oh man!" He was in a good mood and got to school on time. He had some gas when he got home and I gave him more charcoal. I'll try to lower the dose too. I know we are dealing with yeast now cuz grandma came to watch John for a few days and she is quite the GF/CF/SF baker! He has a groin rash that gets out of control and the last time it did he had spent a few days with her. She would listen to me if I told her to ease up on the treats!
