Most of these biotypes can easily be diagnosed and treated by our known remedies. The stumbling block at present is the lack of trained personnel and a laboratory to perform the tests accurately.
Diet and behavior
Books have been written on the subject of diet and its links with behavior. There can be no doubt that a diet high in sugar, additives, and stimulants like coffee, and low in nutrients is associated with antisocial behavior. |

Final Thoughts
Treating autoimmune thyroid disorders is challenging. Treatments must be individualized. Sometimes it takes trial and error to find the best treatment program for the individual. Treating the underlying cause of the illness (i.e., an infection), if it can be found, is the best course. By implementing dietary and nutritional support, most individuals with autoimmune thyroid disorders can significantly improve their condition.

In my experience, many of the other nutritional tests that are currently available do not provide consistent results. | | Today, Sherri remains in good health and continues to take vitamins (Vitamin C, vitamin b6, Vitamin E), minerals (magnesium, selenium), herbs (Cat's Claw, Silymarin) and natural hormones (natural thyroid hormone) to support her immune system.
My experience has shown that many fibromyalgia patients have multiple problems occurring simultaneously, as was true in Sherri's case. Often times, these patients' immune systems are malfunctioning because of nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, infections, allergies (food and environmental) and other causes. |

See book keywords and concepts | | The special supplement formulas most frequently needed according to age are:
Infants
Colicky or restless infants, who do not sleep well, may need zinc, manganese, and vitamin b6. Ziman with B6 provides, in 1 ml, 50 mg B6 (pyridoxine), 5 mg zinc (as the sulfate), and 2 mg manganese (as the gluconate). For infants less than a month old, one drop can be given orally, diluted in water, twice daily for the first 2 months of life. The dose can be increased by one drop per 2 months of age.
Children
Children over 2 years of age can be given 10 to 12 drops of Ziman with B6 twice daily. | | Pyroluria
1. vitamin b6, adequate for dream recall; maximum dose, 2,000 mg
2. Zinc (as gluconate), 30 mg, morning and evening
3. Manganese (as gluconate), 10 mg, morning and evening
4. Plan to reduce tranquilizers if patient gets sleepy in daytime (drug flood syndrome)
5. If B6 produces numbness of fingers or toes, shift to pyri-doxal phosphate at one-tenth dose of normal B6 dose.
D. Depression
1. B6 and zinc, morning (more B6 as needed for dream recall)
2. Zinc, 30 mg, bedtime
3. Deanol, five drops, each morning
4. Vitamin C and dolomite
E. Senility
1. | | B6 and Zinc—The Missing Link
Perhaps the most significant discovery in the nutritional treatment of mental illness is that many depressed and mentally ill people are deficient in vitamin b6 and zinc. But this deficiency is no ordinary deficiency that is simply corrected by eating more foods that are rich in zinc and B6. It is connected with the abnormal production of a group of chemicals called "pyrroles." A patient with a high level of pyrroles in the urine needs more B6 and zinc, since these pyrroles rob the body of these essential nutrients. |
Gale Maleskey
See book keywords and concepts |  For different reasons, vitamin b6 may also be able to help people who have diabetes. One result of this disease is that blood sugar has the ability to stick to proteins, a process called glycosylation. "It's fairly well accepted that glycosylation of proteins is one of the things that causes the complications of diabetes, such as kidney and nerve damage and cataracts," Dr. Gaby says.
In a study at Yale University, researchers found that people with diabetes got some benefits from taking a B6 supplement because of its apparent effect on glycosylation. | | The Bottom Line
The more protein you eat, the more vitamin b6 you need, because this vitamin assists in protein metabolism. Some protein foods contain good amounts of B6, but you can't count on all protein-rich foods as super suppliers. Good sources include meats, fish, poultry, shellfish, legumes, fruits, whole grains, and leafy green vegetables. Dairy products, on the other hand, are relatively poor sources, and processed luncheon meats like sliced ham or turkey lose 50 to 70 percent of their B6 in processing. | | The occasional liver-damaging side effects of large doses of niacin (nicotinic acid)—prescribed to reduce cholesterol—are well-documented, he notes, as are the nerve-damaging effects of huge doses of vitamin b6.
In addition, there are limits that are simply unknown. No one knows the potential side effects of many vitamins and minerals when taken in large doses over the long term. While we know that large amounts of calcium can impair absorption of other minerals such as zinc and manganese, for example, what are the other possible side effects? |

This is the first time since I have been sick that I finally feel like I am getting better, " he claimed.
Andy has now been treated with this regimen for over one year, and he continues to make steady progress. |
Dr. Gary Null
See book keywords and concepts |  Women may become depressed after taking birth control pills over a long period of time, as these drain their body of vitamin b6 or pyridoxine. Certain individuals become depressed in the darker winter months, a condition known as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).
Symptoms
Depression can be mild or severe, and is characterized by prolonged feelings of sadness, dejection, low self-esteem, lack of motivation, and physical slow-down. Chronic depression is associated with higher incidences of other types of disease, including heart disease and cancer. |

Excessive protein consumption is generally the result of diets overloaded with meat, cheese, poultry, eggs, and fish, and undersupplied with legumes, grains, and vegetables.
Meat, cheese, poultry, eggs, and fish are complete proteins. They provide the proper balance of all the essential amino acids (those that cannot, like others, be manufactured by the human body and must be obtained from food or supplements), and are widely—but erroneously?believed to be (a) healthier, (b) nonfattening, and (c) harmless when eaten in large amounts. | | Needed along with vitamin b6 for the effective conversion of phenylalanine into mood-elevating norepinephrine.
Insufficient amounts can impair concentration, promote irritability, decrease energy, and increase anxiety.

AEROBIC EXERCISE. Doing aerobic exercise every day helps to remove blood congestion from the pelvis. This means walking, jogging, swimming, bicycling, anything that moves the blood.
INVERSION EXERCISE. Specific exercises to remove the blood involve turning upside down. In yoga, this is accomplished with the headstand or shoulderstand. It can also be achieved by raising the legs up and bicycling. But if there is a back or neck problem, a simple solution is the slant board. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Deficiencies of either vitamin b6 or magnesium will increase kidney stone risk—and anyone who subsists on processed foods is most likely deficient in both.
Both vitamin A deficiency and vitamin C deficiency may promote kidney stone formation. Smokers are nearly always deficient in vitamin C—each cigarette destroys as much vitamin C as there is in one orange. Also, people who are sick or under stress are usually deficient in vitamin C. However, as discussed with other health conditions, taking supplements without changing the diet is not the way to address nutrient deficiencies. | | Nutritional Supplements
To avoid seizures, it is important to get sufficient B vitamins, especially folic acid and vitamin b6, as well as the minerals magnesium, calcium, manganese, and zinc. I am against the use of chelated colloidal minerals because they may contain toxins such as aluminum, arsenic, and iron.100 I recommend getting all of your minerals from whole organic foods. Good sources, especially for calcium and magnesium, are organic fruits and juices. | | These include the B vitamins, especially folic acid and vitamin b6, and the minerals magnesium, calcium, manganese, and zinc.
Sudden Increase in Body Temperature in Young Children
Most parents are told to give their babies aspirin or Tylenol to lower fevers, because high fevers cause seizures. The late Robert Mendelsohn, M.D., author of How to Raise a Healthy Child.. .In Spite of Your Doctor, disagreed. He argued that it is the sudden, rapid rise in body temperature that can cause a seizure, not the fever itself. | | Magnesium: found in kelp, whole grains, yeast, nuts, coconut meat, and fruit (whole or juices)
?Vitamin B6: found in brewer's yeast, wheat germ, fish and beef, brown rice, bananas, avocados, egg yolks, kale, spinach, potatoes, and popcorn
MENOPAUSAL SYMPTOMS
Women usually experience menopause at some point between the ages of 45 and 55 (the average age is 52), when their monthly menstrual cycle becomes irregular and then stops. |
