Chemar and Others

 

Long time!. My son is doing very good (ofcourse at times he gets those behaviour problems when he is very tired/hungry/stressed). But overall he is doing great. Thanks (special) again to Chemar and others.

 

He is doing good but I notice that his rate of height gain is not as good as it used to be. He was one of the tallest in the class a couple of years ago but since 2 years his height gain is practically minimal.. (he is 13 now).. My question is regarding Calc Phos. Has anyone tried this homeopathic salt? HEard its extremely good for growing children. Does it have any impact on TS as such? your advice please..

 

I am planning to start him on this. Chemar and others - HAs anyone tried this and if so, can you please advice on its pros/cons.

http://www.internethealthlibrary.com/hom-l...y/calc-phos.htm gives a basic idea on this salt.

 

Calc. phos.

Calcium phosphorica

The mineral salt calcium phosphate is the main constituent of bones and teeth. It is also found in nature in the mineral apatite. Mixed with calcium sulfate, calcium phosphate is used as a plant food. It is also used in the manufacturing of glass and porcelain. The homeopathic remedy Calc. phos. is a Schussler tissue salt and is good for bone and teeth problems, including teething pain and slow growth.

 

Parts Used

Calcium phosphate.

 

Uses

Calcium phosphate is an important mineral salt that is essential for the healthy growth of bones, teeth, and soft tissues. The Calc. phos. remedy is mainly used to treat bone complaints, for example, painful bones and joints, or slow-to-heal fractures and rapid tooth decay. This remedy is also good for problems such as slow growth, and growing pain in children and adolescents, with numbness or crawling sensations in the hands and feet. In children, Calc. phos. is effective for problems associated with growth, such as a fontanel that is slow to close and delayed or difficult teething.

 

Weakness, exhaustion, and fatigue after illness can be helped by Calc. phos. It is also a key remedy for digestive tract disorders, such as indigestion or diarrhea with pain after eating, and is used for swollen glands due to tonsillitis or recurrent throat infections.

 

People who need Calc. phos. are unhappy and discontented. When ill, they may crave bacon rind.

Hi efgh

 

so good to hear of the overall improvement for your son

 

honestly, I have no info on calcium phosphate other than that I know there are cautions on it re med interactions and overdose poisoning.

 

I would think that the best person to give you info on this may be mrsD, on the Vitamin etc Forum at NeuroTalk

 

not only is she a pharmacist, but she is also very clued up on supplements

 

hope that helps

Chemar, thanks for your kind prompt reply (as usual )

 

How is your son doing these days? Has he totally outgrown his tics and other associated issues?

 

Since I am not a registered member of that neurotalk forum, I am only able to view the posts but cannot post as such. If you do not mind, Would you be kind enough just to post my above query there (a simple cut and paste of my above post) and if there are some replies , I can always look into it since I can always view them even if I am not registered.

 

Thanks in advance and take care.

 

Cheers
