I received an email tonight confirming the path that we are on with Lilly. I don't know if many of you have dealt much with doctors and alternative treatment but it isn't very pleasant. They don't mean harm, they are just so busy with patients they don't have time to research all that's out there.
Most of you know about the glyconutrients we have been giving Lilly since Nov. 06. For the rest I'll fill you in. Basically, our bodies are made up of cells. The cells are covered in chains of sugars. These sugars join with sugars on other cells to communicate and identify one another. When the sugars aren't present, communication can't happen or gets messed up. Glyconutrients are nutrition for the communication system. When the cells have proper nutrition the body can do what it was created to do: heal itself and live well.
When we started Lilly on glyconutrients she was just over a year old. At that time a lot of Lilly's time was spent just laying or sitting on a blanket. She didn't cry when you put her there or cry to be picked up. You could go in and out of the room without any protests or demands. After a couple of weeks that changed. She would cry when put down or "squawk" at you when you walked by. She became more demanding! Poor Mommy! But good Lilly.
The longer she was on the sugars she became more interactive. She started looking around, becoming more aware of things around her. She would actually look at you. Before it was always like she was looking toward you but just through you. She began laughing!! It was like she just woke up!
Medically, Lilly was having to take a laxative daily. I hated that! Within the first week we had to cut the dose in half and give it every other day! You see, when there is communication the body knows what to do with what you put in it. Even drugs! We no longer take the laxative.
Lilly has made so much progress since starting the glyconutrients. I believe it has given her a good base to build on. You have to be well on the inside before you can learn new things! If you are sick you sure don't feel like going to therapy.
Anyway, the whole point of this was to tell you about Dr. Reg McDaniel. He is one of the doctors that formulated the products. He works closely with critically ill children. I have the ability to email him with any questions as he has done many trial studies with glyconutrients and children. I was asking him tonight if there was anything I could do to help her muscles recover quicker as we go through this. I was sooooo happy with his reply. He has been asked to lecture at a therasuit conference and a hyperbaric conference because these people found out that enhanced nutrition made their efforts more effective. He has wanted to do a formal study in the combination of all three for he expects synergism 2 + 2 +2 is significantly more than 6 in patient response.
Praise God!! Little did I know (but you know who did know) that we have been laying the foundation for optimal results!!! Lilly and I shared a big high 5 when I read that! Back to my point....It is just really frustrating when you can't get a dr to tell you "go for it!" . That's ok the "ultimate healer" gave me the green light!: ) I am just so thankful that my good friends told me about glyconutrients and Dr. Reg and the support he brings. If you want to know more about Dr. Reg and his work just follow the links. Also, there is a link to my friends (the one who told me about the sugars) site. I encourage everyone to do a little digging. Do something good for yourself!! Educate yourself about wellness and this new technology! Good night!!
