Is Brain Vitale safe for my 6 yo with sleep apnea?
Q. Is Brain Vitale by DFH safe for my son who is 6 years old and weighs 60 pounds? He had suffered with serious sleep apnea, he is very emotional, and not able to focus on anything. He cannot get into the deeper levels of sleep.

A. Brain Vitale is safe for a healthy child without seizure or brain disorders. The dose would be 1/4-1/2 tsp daily. I would use Brain Vitale with him carefully and note any changes in behavior for the better or worse.

In addition, I highly recommend:

  1. HLC Mindlinx, by Pharmax: This is healthy probiotics mixed with some glutamine, both very helpful for GI function and help break down gluten and casein in his food. Gluten and casein have been known to cause behavioral problems in kids. Give 1 or 2 capsules after meals.

    Your sons' sensitivity to certain foods/chemicals provides us a clue that his intestines are not working very well. If this is in fact true, (which would have been caused by antibiotic and steroid/anti-inflammatory med use from surgeries), than he is not absorbing his nutrients and would definitely exhibit poor brain chemistry symptoms such as poor sleep and emotional flux. Also, we know that you have developed Celiacs, probably related to stress, and this shows us that genetically, he has an intestinal weakness predisposition.
  2. Berry Frutol Fish Oils by Pharmax (1-2 tsp. daily): My 4-year niece asks for them each time she steps foot in my house! This helps to reduce inflammation in the GI in addition to support neurotransmitter reception in the brain. Using liquid is better because it allows you to use a higher dose without having to swallow 8 or more pills
  3. ASDplex Hypoallergenic Nutrition: Available only through our sister company, but very helpful to correct underlying nutrient deficiencies. It is free of all allergens. It is often used by children with Autism and ADHD, because of it's purity and bioavailable forms of nutrients such as B-vitamins and magnesium, both important for sleep and healthy brain function, and an excellent combination of amino acids, necessary for neurotransmitter production. Your son may have in common with autistic children that his GI system is broken down and having trouble producing neurotransmitters. Of course, Autistic children have other features as well, yet this product may be perfectly suited for your son.

Client feedback:
My name is Judy. I conversed with you via email back a few weeks ago and you made some suggestions for my son Lukas and I purchased the products you suggested. Luke has been taking them for approx. 10 days and the results have been incredible, within 2 days there was a dramatic change in his disposition he appears to be balanced. His behavior and the up and down emotional state have improved dramatically.
THANK YOU!!!
