Nutritional Health of the Special Needs Child

Over the past three years, research scientists have discovered that many special needs children suffer from metabolic disorders. Many parents have added pro-biotics to their children's regimen and found it does increase the child's digestive health.

The good news is that these metaboilc problems can potentially be addressed through the gut-brain axis and the metabolic signaling pathways. These therapeutic interventions may significantly improve the children's gut health.

Children in today’s world are exposed to toxins in the air, water, food, and even in their clothing. The toxic load is unimaginable when measured against earlier times when chemicals were less prevalent.

These toxins impact a child’s body, harming the natural metabolic processes and compromising gut health.

Research has also discovered that many special needs children have an additional health condition: intestinal dysfunction. The evidence suggests this is due to the balance of intestinal
microorganisms in the digestive system. Children who have higher quantities of the less beneficial gut bacteria and less of the bacteria known to be helpful can benefit from addressing their gut.

Gut the Benefits of Camel Milk

Many compounds found in camel milk benefit the good bacteria in the gut because they provide a broad spectrum of beneficial probiotics, and prebiotics in the form of oligosaccharides. Oligosaccharides contribute to digestive health by decreasing gut permeability and supporting a healthy microbiome.

Colostrum is very nutritious and contains high levels of proteins that fight infections and bacteria. Camel milk is virtually bio-identical to the colostrum in human milk and stimulates the same properties as colostrum, making it highly beneficial and easy to digest.

The results of recent studies of camel milk indicate that camel milk therapy over the course of 4 weeks of therapy, significantly improved clinical measurements of heath in the children involved in the studies.

Growing children need good nutrition every day. Camel milk has a protein, carbohydrate and calorie content comparable to whole cow milk, but it also has some big nutritional advantages. Camel milk has more calcium than other milks and beneficial levels of bioavailable minerals – selenium, zinc, potassium, magnesium, copper, iron and other minerals. It also has 3 to 5 times more Vitamin C. The higher level of certain amino acids (such as methionine, valine, and leucine) found in camel milk as compared with cow milk, can help stimulate proper growth and development.

Camelicious is 100% Whole Camel Milk

Camelicious is whole camel milk powder. It’s 100% natural and contains no antibiotics, no hormones, is gluten-free and non-GMO. Our camels are grass fed with non-GMO feed. Their feed is regularly tested to protect against herbicides and the milk is regularly tested to ensure it is free of heavy metals and other environmental contaminants.

Camel milk is a better nutritional option than cow milk, goat milk or sheep milk, and is a superior health choice to commercial nut and soy milks which contain many unhealthy additives, such as sugar, oil and binding gums.

Camel milk can be consumed as milk, or used in cooking and baking. Treat your family to great tasting and nutritious Camelicious camel milk.

It is also usually well tolerated by the "lactose intolerant".

Please feel free to call or email me at any time.
I'm always very interested to hear your feedback and happy to answer any questions about camel milk and Camelicious.

Dr. Martin Explains Metabolic Healthy & Metabolic Unhealthy (Dr. Martin)

I love fowarding Dr. Martin's communication as he has such a great way of explaining things. I know I've gone through lots of definitions of metabolism, and here is his simple way of explaining.

From Dr. Martin:

Less than 10% of adults in North America are metabolically healthy. But what does that even mean?

Metabolism is a generic word for EVERY chemical process in your body from energy production to cellular reproduction and fighting off disease.

This means that metabolically unhealthy people can have severe problems in every system of their body. Also, if you aren't metabolically healthy — then you AREN'T healthy. So, what does it mean to be metabolically healthy?

If you have…

• An ideal waist measurement
• Normal blood sugar levels
• Normal blood pressure
• Normal blood triglycerides and HDL

AND — you do not take ANY medications for any of the above then you're metabolically healthy.

As I mentioned above, 90% of the population fails to meet the definition of metabolically healthy.

Now, ALL OF THE ABOVE, every one of them, is ultimately caused by high circulating insulin.

NAC (N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine) What is it?

Have you heard of NAC? I have heard it so many times, but didn't know what it was, so decided to find out what is it about.

What is NAC?

This is a stable form of cysteine.

Cysteine is a non-essential amino acid, and it functions as a stabilizer for the formation of protein structures in your body.

The benefits of NAC include:

1. Limits alcohol-induced liver damage
2. Helps reduce acne and acne scars
3. Limits ADHD medication toxicity
4. Helps reduce addiction
5. Helps manage COPD symptoms
6. Reduces depression and anxiety symptoms and other mental health symptoms.
7. Limits acetaminophen (Tylenol)-induced liver damage
8. Another powerful effect of NAC is the prevention of excessive mucus, fluid, and inflammation in the lungs.

NAC helps normalize neurotransmitters, which helps with many different forms of addiction, from food addiction to drug and alcohol addiction.

NAC also has the ability to boost a potent antioxidant called glutathione. Glutathione has the ability to repair your cells and protect them from oxidative stress.

Glutathione is the Master Antioxidant. NAC works by increasing glutathione. When you have too much poison in your body, glutathione gets depleted. This causes free radical damage and oxidative stress that can destroy the liver. Glutathione protects against poisons and other things that increase oxidation and free radical damage.

In summary, NAC is a powerful substance that has many valuable benefits. If you give it a try, let me know how it works for you

Glutathione helps:

• Decrease xenobiotics (poisons in the body)
• Stop free radical damage
• Counter the effects of hydrogen peroxide
• Chelate heavy metals
• Decrease pathogens
• Decrease oxidative stress

Other things that help boost glutathione:

• Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA)
• Vitamin D
• SAMe

A few potential causes of low glutathione:

• Cancer
• HIV
• Infection
• Trauma
• Burns
• Chronic disease and inflammation
• Overtraining
• Poisoning
• Diabetes

What is Idiopathic Neuropathy?

A patient will go to their doctor with certain symptoms. These can include numbness, tingling, and pain, unsteadiness when standing or walking and muscle weakness other symptoms may be feelings of faintness when standing. They may be vague or strange sensations (paresthesia), inability to feel pain, touch or temperature. Some other symptoms can be lack of coordination, loss of reflexes, muscle weakness, loss of muscle control, muscle twitching, cramping or spasms, difficulty walking or moving limbs.

There are even symptoms related to the autonomic nervous system such as dizziness, fainting, sweating abnormalities, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abnormal heart rate or blood pressure and sexual dysfunction.

The doctor does a series of tests and the diagnosis is neuropathy. Sensory neuropathy is the pain, numbness, and tingling resulting from damaged sensory nerves. The unsteadiness and muscle weakness means a motor nerve has been damaged – in other words, the nerves which relay the orders from the brain to the muscle to get them to move isn’t working well.

The doctor will next look to see what caused this problem, as in order to help the patient, whatever caused it needs to be identified and brought under control. For example, in a diabetic, it is the blood sugar that causes the damage and thus the blood sugar needs to be normalized. Sometimes the neuropathy was caused by trauma – a car accident, sports injury or even surgery. Nothing more needs to be done as the trauma is over. Of course, someone who continues to have injuries might make the neuropathy worse.

There is no known reason?

Sometimes the peripheral neuropathy seems to happen for no particular reason.

Doctors call this disorder “idiopathic”, which means “of unknown cause.” Typically, idiopathic peripheral neuropathy occurs in people over 60 years old, but not necessarily. It may progress slowly, or may not progress at all, after the initial onset.

As with all neuropathies, it can be very disruptive to someone’s normal life and lifestyle.

What to do.

It doesn’t make sense that there is no cause for this problem. Nerves just don’t get damaged on their own. As with any medical condition or disease, there is always a cause.

If you are told you have idiopathic neuropathy, you should continue to look for a cause. A specialist might be able to track down the cause, or a nutritionist might be able to find what deficiencies are causing the nerves to deteriorate

Here is a list of causes that we have found and compiled in hopes that you can figure out what is causing the problem and eliminate the cause to improve your condition.

Nerve Damage - Why R-Alpha Lipoic and Acetyl L-Carnitine?

If you have nerve damage, R-Alpha lipoic acid and acetyl L-carnitine are two key supplements that you should add to your daily routine.

Evidence indicates that alpha lipoic acid has an ability to kill free-radicals which may help provide added nutritional support to people who have nerve damage in the arms and legs, such as:

- pain
- burning
- itching
- tingling
- numbness

Alpha lipioc acid comes in two forms. R and S. Alpha lipoic acid is a combination of these two forms. Most supplements have alpha lipoic acid with both forms, not just the R form.

The R form of alpha lipoic acid is the form normally found in the body. Studies indicate the R-alpha lipoic acid form appears to be better absorbed than the combination of R and S alpha lipoic acid.

Additionally, some small preliminary studies suggest acetyl L-carnitine may help provide nutritional support to people with pain and who want to improve feeling in affected nerves. It is also possible that acetyl L-carnitine can help nerves regenerate.

The Nerve & Energy Booster is a nutritional supplement which contains acetyl L-carnitine and R-alpha lipoic acid (the better, more absorbable form of R-alpha lipoic acid).
