Hey B,

These ones are my daughters. Any insight and guidance would be really appreciated.

Thank you

Lana

Hey B,

Found it 🙂 these are my son’s results.

I will post my daughter’s in a separate discussion to avoid any confusion.

Thanks!

Thank you B, I might try it for myself and my ankle!

Morning B,

Lovely thank you for sharing this – how useful! so the protocol is based on a adult and I will use the formula to get her dosage. For example for the magnesium she would need 288mg and the acti- mag from biotech (which also has B vitamins) is 400mg in one scoop – I could just give her half even though its a little less but I cant…

Hey B

I had a look at the protocol – I found Thorne CalMag and vitamin C but the magnesium is citrate not glycinate. Would you recommend I give her this as its powder form and easier to take. The magnesium supplements in general are quite big. otherwise I also have biotics research actimag plus which has magnesium 400mg as well as the B…

Thank you so much! will have a look

Hello B, my daughter recently fractured her foot and I was wondering aside from Vitamin D is there anything else you would recommend to support her healing?

Thank you

Lana

Thank you!

Hey B

I would like to do an OAT on the kids – do you have someone you can recommend please

Thank you

Lana

Good morning B, I sent a response but I am not sure it went through.

Thank you again – this is starting to make a bit more sense now. I did have my smear test three weeks ago and she checked me as I had mentioned my periods started to become a little irregular. She said I was fine. I was reading somewhere that because my DHEA levels were…

Hi B, thank you for such a detailed response. That was really helpful!

Could supplementing with DHEA a week before the blood test affect my Androstenedione levels to this extent? I did start the chaste tree a couple of weeks prior to testing but DHEA only a week before. Also One DHEA pill is 50 and it’s quite small to cut in half so should I stop…

Hi B

In response to the new thread – posting on this one x

1. When were these tests taken in your cycle? second day of my period
2. How long after starting supplementation did you have your blood drawn? about 2 weeks with the chaste tree and 1 week for the DHEA
3. How long have you been supplementing in total? chaste tree has been now 4 weeks and…

Hey B

These are my most recent hormone tests – I have started on chaste tree and DHEA (50) and based on my most recent thyroid blood test which I shared last time with you, I am also taking T3.

Just wanted your thoughts on these tests and whether there is anything specific I should be looking out for.

Thanks again 🙂

Hi B,

okay thank you for this feedback and all the videos. So I aim to have at least 25-30g of protein per meal with a protein based snack and I take Tyrosine so it is interesting to see that I am not converting T4 to T3 as well. And wondering if this is related to stomach acid. I definitely eat too fast and dont allow time to enjoy my food – I…

Hey B,

Yes I will look into this. You mention 6 months, I can reintroduce it slowly after? would that not trigger the immune response again and increase the antibodies?

My results have come out, Zinc levels are 78.8 and my vitamin D 78. The others I have attached below,

Hey B

Thank you for the attachments – there is a lot I do in general to maintain a healthy lifestyle and I am very careful when it comes to processed foods. I have not removed gluten as I just feel very overwhelmed with the idea.

As for the blood tests, I just checked the liver panel was done in 2022 so I have just asked them to add my full…

Hey B

Ok that’s interesting as i do have hashimoto’s and am taking thyroxine. I do test every 6 months and have a full thyroid check (just had one a few days ago actually) and my results have been stable for a while. As for the liver, I had a test done last year and it seemed within range too.

I am taking ashwagandha biogena and HPA select…

Hi B, these are some results of the dutch test which was done last year. The blood test and saliva test were done last month. When I had done the dutch test my progesterone was high and this blood test shows it quite low but because my periods are off at the moment (may be due to stress) I dont know if I tested correctly for my progesterone.…

Hey B, honestly so many symptoms could be linked to perimenopause ie/ my anxiety, period no longer as regular and has just been 7 days late, brain fog… but I also know that my adrenals are taxed and have been for a while so my body could just be over running on survival and these could also be the effects of it. So the answer is I don’t know.…

Hey B, what are your thoughts on high cortisol levels and it affecting your period as oppose to it being due to low progesterone levels. I have done the cortisol saliva test and it is showing as high in the morning and settles back by the afternoon but my periods recently have been a little off (never had this before) – 7 days late and…

yes thank you – very useful!

Hi B, I did not know that – thank you for this information

Hi B, Yes I will be taking them separately. The protein shake is not daily and I try to have my protein intake from my meals mainly and the collagen is more specific to my ankle cartilage injury. If you have any recommendations that would be awesome. I was looking into biotics optimal collagen.

Thank you Lana

Morning,

Along with Vitamin D, should vitamin K be given to children and if so at what dose? 10 year old and 8 year old.

Thanks Lana

Morning,

I am considering the equip or design for health protein powder and I am wondering if it is still okay to take the optimal collagen (in morning coffee) as well.

Thanks Lana

Great Thank you B! will have a look and get back to you if I have any questions.

Hey B,

Thanks for the response. This was really helpful. So I did run his antibodies too as I have Hashimoto’s and they came back normal. The multi vitamins he was taking do contain Biotin – He is due to have an other blood test in December to check his Vitamin D levels so do you think it may be worth redoing his full thyroid panel then as I…

Hi B, thank you for your response.

I ran these blood tests as a general check up – there were no real concerns and he has been well overall (he is turning 8 in January). I did notice his multi vitamins do contain vitamin B12 so it may be due to that. I have stopped them for now. He isnt the best eater in terms of variety but he does like…

Good morning! I have just run some blood tests on my son and a few of his results came out high specifically B12. Is there anything I could do to lower his levels or should I be checking his liver panel following these results?

Thank you Daniel for your response. And in your opinion what are the factors that need to be considered before taking HRT in this case if the homocysteine levels are in check?

As for her daughter, they were told that she is having more severe allergy symptoms due to the chloramine in the pool water and that when children do not shower prior…

Hey B, a friend is concerned about taking HRT as she has been told that she has the MTFHR gene. She is worries about the blood clotting and was advised that she cannot take HRT as a result. I would really appreciate your view about this.

She also has her daughter who is suffering from severe coughing attacks which she was told were…

Not that I am aware of no. He said that the bold patch was within a certain proximity to her eyes and there may be a connection! very vague!

Awesome thank you wil have a look at the links you attached. She also mentioned that the doctor said it could be related to her eye sight too.

Hey B and D, do you have any advise for alopecia? A friend is suffering from alopecia – it started when she first gave birth to her daughter 10 years ago and got some steroid injections and it stopped. Recently she noticed a bold patch again and the same doctor has advised to give her the same treatment. She does also suffer from anemia.

Hey, so I took my kids to see Dr Tina at SameDay Dentist – She works with children who mouth breath and the myofunctional therapist we saw was at Maison Sante Ms Paula. She is very sweet and patient. I would also recommend you visit an ENT if you haven’t already done so as it is necessary to rule out any obstruction. In my sons case, his…

Hey Bernadette,
Hope you well!
I have just received my results for my Thyroid and it is very confusing and I thought maybe you could clarify some parts please. My Free T3 and Free T4 are both in mid range and although my TSH levels were normal before (3 months ago even) now they are showing as H and I have been asked to increase my… Read more

Hey Bernadette, in your experience what measures can you take to ease frozen shoulder pain that comes back everyone now and then (this person is under a lot of stress, going through perimenopause but is generally quit active ). Thanks x

Hey there (again!), what would you recommend to do or take if you have persistent hiccups post operation (three days)?

TIA x

Hey there, I just would like to know what your views are on oregano oil and how long you are meant to take it for.

Thank you ! xx

Hi Bernadette, my daughter who is 8 seems to suffer from a windy stomach and sometimes it can become really painful. I know diet plays a major role in this, but I would like some recommendations for probiotics that may help ease this feeling. Thank you!
