Vitamine C and D

[melanie]

I have noticed an increasein dannys tics today the dan dr added D and C can this cause tics?

melanie,

 

I don't think vit C is a trigger. However, when i first supplement vit C to my son, he did have an increase and it did go away. My initial reaction linked the waxing with vit C. After that incident, he did not seem to have a problem with it. So my guess is that, either he was waxing or the initial increase caused aggravation then subsided.

 

I have been researching alot about vit D and am interested in giving it to my son to boost his overall immune system since he has allergies. Did your child get a blood test to determine the level of deficiency to determine his appropriate intake? Can you tell me your child's age, weight and how much vit D is he/she taking?

 

Thx a million!

My son has a corn allergy and can't take vit. C at all-- buffered-- doesn't matter.

I just feed him foods naturally high in C.

Hi,

I also found an increase in tics when starting those vitamins--I tried to hang in there and keep going but for my son it made his tics worse. Hope you have a good day.
