Supplements

I’d love to learn more about using natural supplements for children with brain malformations.  There’s such a huge variety of literature available, I’m not even sure where to start.  None of Selah’s specialists have recommended supplements, but I know a few of the obvious correlations with supplements like fish oil helping the brain to make connections.

 

Selah has such a wide variety of symptoms and brain challenges, it’s hard to pinpoint which things to target.  Then there’s the whole cost factor.  Supplements are expensive, so I’d need to go with the most bang for the buck.  What’s most likely to make the biggest difference?  I need to prioritize.

 

Another factor to consider is that Selah is super picky about medicines and vitamins.  She loathes liquid medicines, yet her chewable vitamins/medicines/supplements have to be super yummy for her to chew them up and swallow them.  And there’s no disguising the liquids in foods.  She detects that technique immediately and spits it out.

 

So, if you have knowledge in the area of using supplements to help children who have special needs with brain function, and you have a moment to share your expertise with me, I’d sure love to hear from you.  Please leave a comment so others can benefit, but if you can’t get the commenting system to work, feel free to email me at BossYourHeart {at} gmail {dot} com.  Thanks!
