Eileen

Supplementation Suggestions for Eileen Sullivan

I have many products that we like listed on our shopping pages: http://www.wholewayhome.com/shop/

Here however is a more specific plan for Eileen:

 

1) Discontinue ALL future use of Antibiotics. Work on BUILDING immune system through diet and SLEEP. Taking a shotgun approach to kill everything in the gut through antibiotics is a very unwise decision, especially for someone mum’s age!!!

2) Take for short term… a superior quality PRO-biotics to undo antibiotic damage to intestinal systems and improve brain health.

• BioK http://www.amazon.com/Plus-Protection-Bacterias-Temperature-Capsules/dp/B00M5N2WA6/ref=ll-20
• Pure Encapsulations  http://www.amazon.com/Pure-Encapsulations-Probiotic-dairy-free/dp/B0063X0K5I/ref=ll-20 *50 billion CFU per serving in acid-resistant capsules with pH targeted release
• Enzymedica  http://www.amazon.com/Enzymedica-Probiotics-Advanced-Digestive-Capsules/dp/B00HLXQAS0/ref=ll-20

3) Improve sleep environment ASAP

• 4) install black-out drapes
• 5) dad’s computer moved away from family room
• 6) NO supplements OR any wine after 6pm – except Magnesium and/OR Herbatonin
• 7) White noise machine in bedroom (recommend gentle wind sounds)
• 8) Herbatonin on more difficult nights
• 9) Improve neurotransmitter health through Amino Acid intake

10) Get a 7 day – 4x a day vitamin box where Eileen can keep track of her supplements. Both cary and I have these kinds of boxes and they are invaluable when you are dealing with a health crisis:

11) EVERY WEEK – Put wine in labeled decanter with daily allotted portion control until her memory improves.

Blood Pressure Supplements

NOTE: Take all vitamins and minerals WITH FOOD

Magnesium

Niacinimide:
NEVER EVER TAKE AT NIGHT! This is a stimulant! http://www.amazon.com/Pure-Encapsulations-Niacinamide-90s-FFP/dp/B00CSVFQJO/ref=ll-20

Co-Enzyme Q10
http://www.amazon.com/Pure-Encapsulations-CoQ10-120-mg/dp/B0064R62BO/ref=ll-10
BE CAREFUL most CoQ10 on the market is pure junk and potentially UNSAFE – read the research – if it’s cheap, it is probably FAKE, ineffective and potentially harmful – you get what you pay for.

 

Vitamin D Levels

Note that this formula is especially good for elderly assimilation.

 

Melatonin – Sleep Aid

start her off with the .3 mg low dosage and she how she responds to it. A higher dosage is available…

Follow my advice and Miracles may happen!!!

• Magnesium Stearate

Preferred “professional quality” supplement Brands include:

IF Eileen were ONLY to take JUST ONE ITEM – I would probably choose one of these, because they also include some co-factor vitamins and minerals:
NeuroMood
http://www.amazon.com/Pure-Encapsulation-Neuromood-Pack-Packets/dp/B00YPZXPQ2/ref=ll-20

OR NeuroPure
http://www.amazon.com/Pure-Encapsulations-NeuroPure-120-Count/dp/B009ANS3YI/ref=ll-20

but really – i’s rather her go straight to the program i suggested above for the next few weeks r so and see how she does…
