Dear Dr. Meletis,
What is good for ADD and kidney stones?
Ms. C.
Dear Ms. C.,
ADD can be caused by many issues. Often a general approach is used to start with including getting a 96 item Food Allergy Test that is offered at this site. Supplements often include Zinc Monomethionine, Ethyl EPA, magnesium (Opti-Mag) and LipoCeutical™ Glutathione. It is also essential to make sure there is proper hydration and sufficient high quality sleep. If there is documented low iron, particularly low ferritin, then supplementation with Iron Complex may be appropriate. These are starting places to consider, yet only one’s personal physician can make this determination.
Kidney stones that are calcium oxalate based generally benefit from extra magnesium, B complex (Extension B-Plex), adequate Vitamin D3, stopping caffeine intake and increased hydration including 64 to 72 ounces of clear fluids per day. Also decreasing the intake of oxalate rich foods is essential.
Sincerely,?
Chris D. Meletis, ND
