Nat Phos 6x and Arnica 30c reduces weight very safely.

Thursday, February 19th, 2015

I am copying the conversation with a patient who recorded her loss of weight with my therapy aka “Joepathy”.

I recommend that this remedy is used by anyone who is overweight to reduce weight very safely.

Submitted on 2015/02/19 at 11:02 AM | In reply to Gettin-Beta.
Your weight loss is normal at 4 lbs in 2 months. This loss is slightly below the reports I have received from others who have used my therapy as it works out at 0.5kg per week. Many who have used my therapy which I discovered quite accidentally when I prescribed Nat Phos 6x to an Obese man who was 135kg and was 6ft in height. He was an electrical engineer and it broke my heart to learn that he could not get a job as he had applied to many who would have welcomed him to their staff but hesitated to do so due to his bulk. He consulted me for GERD and when he reported back in 3 months I could not remember him as he was a changed man and had lost 30kg in 12 weeks. This works out at 2.5kg per WEEK.

I have quantified the average weight loss at 1kg per WEEK and many people who have used my Joepathy have confirmed that this is normal. I believe that the combination of Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken immediately after a meal and Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily is the recipe for reducing weight at 1kg per week very safely. I believe that this reduction of weight is due to the action of Nat Phos 6x which accelerates the digestion and passage of food down the alimentary track and this inhibits the production of HCl which is the reason for GERD when the stomach is sluggish for a variety of reasons.

I have been prescribing Nat Phos 6x to hundreds of desperate mothers whose babies were being treated by their pediatricians with the dangerous PPI drugs like Zantac, Nexium and others all of which were classified as being dangerous for use by adults in the long term and I shudder to think what their after effects would have been for babies. Many mothers have informed me on my Website that when they gave their baby the drug, it worked fine for a few days but it caused constipation for over 3 days and when their baby stopped feeding they rushed to the hospital when the pediatrician doubled the dosage!
Many mothers at this stage, did a search on the Web under Baby GERD and if they were lucky, they identified my Website and I would prescribe Nat Phos 6x and their baby would be smiling in a few hours after the first dose.

If you are interested you can read the many hundreds of cases of Babies who were saved by me on my Website.

I would like to copy the conversation I had with another patient Priya Arul who was desperate to lose weight who stated:
“This is Priya Arul from India. 25year old female who weighs about 120kgs at the moment of about 5ft 4”. I have tried almost every other diet system available” This is of interest as others who may read this account may like to know how to reduce weight very safely at 1kg per week.

The Ultimate Cure for Obesity on:

http://abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/15923/

This is a post I made on the ABC way back in 2004 on December 25, the day before the Tsunami hit Sri Lanka, a day which will forever will remain in my mind for as long as I live as I was involved in the Homeopathic after care of the many thousands of survivors immediately after the Tsunami when I was joined by members of Homeopaths Without Borders who sent 6 pairs of International Homeopaths to help care for the survivors.

Your therapy for Obesity will comprise the use of
Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily after meals
Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily before meals.

Weigh yourself today before you commence on my therapy and report your weight loss weekly when the standard loss which you can expect and has been reported is around 1kg per week.

You will also do a regular stint of at least 45 minutes of exercise which will be done by you at intensive levels, irrespective of the general feeling of tiredness that you may experience, if you wish to benefit from my Joepathy.

You will also control your diet and avoid fatty fools completely and eat in moderation to ensure that your stomach is filled to comfortable levels.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

Please follow the following restrictions which are essential to ensure that the remedy prescribed is not antidoted:

Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

Report your weight loss weekly when you can expect a drop of at least 1kg per WEEK.

You can use boiled mains water to eliminate the Chlorine.

The following remedies will help to arrest the loss of hair and will also help to regrow the hair in about 2 months.

Arnica Q or Mother Tincture 15ml bottle
Arnica 30c in the Liquid Dilution in Ethanol
2 500ml bottles of Spring water sold in supermarkets.
Any good Fish Liver Oil in capsule form.

Method:

Arnica Q to be used to mix into the water for massaging into scalp.

Insert 20 drops of Arnica Q into the bottle and you should notice that the water bubbles freely when the bottle is shaken about.

Half a teaspoonful of this medicated water is to be massaged into the scalp twice daily.
Please note that this water remedy with Arnica Q is NOT for oral use.(NOT FOR DRINKING). It is only for massaging into the roots of the hair.

Arnica 30c for Oral use

Make the Wet dose of Arnica 30 as follows:

Order Arnica 30c in a 5ml in the Liquid Dilution in Ethanol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you take a capfull which is a dose twice daily. This is best taken first thing in the morning and last thing before bed.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before a capful of the bottle is sipped as directed.

Take a capsule of the Fish Liver Oil daily.

Use Johnsons Baby Shampoo daily for your shower which will help to wash away the perspiration from the scalp which causes the bacteria that are responsible for your Dandruff to propagate.

Avoid Coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham and bacon, and all canned cola beverages as they antidote the therapy.

It is understood that you will STOP all other remedies and drugs you are taking today.
Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

Drink plenty of water and exercise daily for at least 45 minutes like walking or jogging depending on your age. The idea is to sweat it out. This is essential to promote the circulation of blood in the body which Arnica will help to promote.

Patients who suffered from severe hair loss who were losing over 200 hairs daily have confirmed that they discovered in about a week that the loss of their hair had been arrested. They also noticed that the new growth was plainly visible above their scalp when their hair was parted in about 6 weeks.

18 year old girl suffering from chronic GERD for 5 years CURED in 2 weeks

Wednesday, February 4th, 2015

January 17, 2015 at 3:44 AM (Edit)

I have an 18 year old daughter who was diagnosed with GERD about 5 years ago and has been on PPI’s ever since. She had an endoscopy and they found that the sphincter which normally closes to keep gastric juices down doesn’t close/work. I have used homeopathic remedies for years whenever I can and have worked some minor miracles where other medicines have failed. I have been reading the posts on your website about GERD and wonder if you could help me with some specifics for her please? She also has a big sebaceous cyst on the side of her nose (poor thing) and I have started by giving her what I had in the house silicea 30c and ferrum phos 30c. I have been searching for Arnica drops, I have found some that are 10% alcohol 30c….am I on the right track?
Appreciative of any advice and time you can offer to help me.
Kind regards,
Ingrid

It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within 24 hours after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

The remedies you will order are as follows:

Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals.
This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

You can also take a PROBIOTIC like Bifilac daily. A Probiotic will help by changing the balance of the Bacteria in the gut and will contribute to your cure and help to ensure that your problem does not recur. After your problem with GERD is stabilised you can take the Arnica in the Wet dose nightly before bed and the Probiotic daily for life. You do not need to take Nat Phos daily but you will keep a stock to be used whenever you feel uncomfortable after a meal when you will take 2-3 tablets as necessary.

Please observe the following simple rules:

Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

Dear Sir, I am writing to express my thanks to you for your help with my young daughter’s case of GERD which has plagued her for the last 5 years. I followed your advice faithfully and after a week her symptoms have subsided massively. I have been giving her a probiotic too, Kefir, as I couldn’t get hold of the biflac. Thank you so much, I now do not have to worry about her taking PPI’s and risking her health. So you have helped us both. Kindest regards.

Chocolate Cyst reduces in 4 months without Surgery

Saturday, January 31st, 2015

Joe says:
January 31, 2015 at 11:22 AM (Edit)

It is a post like yours that makes my day when at my advanced age of 86, I am delighted to learn that I have been able to help yet another patient with my own therapy aka “Joepathy”.

It is very rarely that a patient reports the successful outcome of using my Joepathy as the majority of patients feel that once they are cured of their ailment using my therapy which is always given by me free of charge, they are not obliged to have the courtesy of reporting their cure which in your case would only have been possible through Laparoscopic surgery which would have been only temporary as Chocolate Cysts invariably have the habit of recurring again and again.

You are advised to continue my therapy for some more time in the future till the CC is not shown in a Scan. You will then stop the Bellis P and the Apis but you will continue to take the Arnica 30 twice daily for Life.
You will also take a Scan every 6 months and report if your CC recurs in the future.

For the record I shall copy the first post you made seeking my assistance on September 2014, over 4 months ago below:

A desperate case of GERD cured in 2 weeks

Monday, December 29th, 2014

This is the case of a patient who had suffered from chronic Gastric distress for 10 years and consulted me 2 weeks ago and was helped by me to overcome his GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) aka Gastritis. This case if of interest as he had been subjected to many tests and prescribed many drugs which did not help him.

He reports that he was cured of 90% of his problems today and will hopefully be cured in a few weeks hopefully permanently.

Dear Sir,

I read many of your posts in the last few days and i am very happy to see the difference you made in many lives suffering from GERD.

I have problems with Acid reflux for last 10 years, my main problem is esophagal spasms which occur due to cold air when i go out (In sweden we have now -5C). Also i feel chest tightness along with difficulty swallowing foods, It gets worse with the esophagal spasms.

I saw your posts on GERD and ordered Nats Phos from Amazon, along with Arnica, However the problem is Arnica i can only find in tablets on Amazon and no liquid, can i use the Arnica tablets instead of your wet dose? Would appreciate if you can recommend the usage of Arnica.

I am expecting these medicines to arrive early next week, so would be great if you can recommend me. Many thanks sir

Can you give more information on your spasms. Are you swallowing air which can cause them? What did your doctor diagnose them as?

Nat Phos 6x is my remedy of choice and you have already ordered it from the US. You can use 8 pellets Arnica 30 in 500ml water.

You could have got it quicker from the UK from:

Dear Sir,

Many thanks for the quick response and appreciate for providing me the details where i can order from UK, I live in Sweden so i can order from any of the above stores.

I already ordered Nat Phos 6x and Arnica 30c pellets yesterday from Helios through Amazon UK, i will receive them next week and take it as per your recommendations.

I had many endoscopies and the last one was two weeks back, The doctor said that my LES was not closing fully, I have been using many PPI’s over the years to no much benefit.

I have heart burn which starts with belching, then my whole esophagus contracts in-voluntarily, like its moving up and down, The doctor said that its due to the acid coming up, i have these spasms, Its basically contractions, where i end up with chest tightness and difficulty eating. I firmly believe in your treatment as i was cured completely of breathing dis-order way back in 2009 with some homeopathic medicine.

I will follow your advise with Arnica pellets mixed with water to create a Wet dose, I understand that i should take Nat Phos 6x 3 tablets after the two meals and Arnica Wet dose 1 tablespoon twice daily.

Please correct me and thank you sir

It seems to me by reading your story that you suffer from an excess of HCl acid. You state however :
“I have been using many PPI’s over the years to no much benefit.”
I do not understand the reason why the PPI’s did not work as they are supposed to stop the flow of HCl into the stomach.

Let me prescribe a Homeopathic equivalent of the PPI drugs which I hope will help you:

Robinia Pseudacacia 6c

You will order the Liquid Dilution of this remedy and use it in the Wet dose twice daily.

You will continue to take the Arnica 30 and the Nat Phos 6x but I would prefer that you insist on the Liquid Dilution of Arnica 30c as this is very important from the curative angle.

On re-reading your post, it seems to me that your LES is badly affected as a result of repeated erosion by your Gastric Juice and even perhaps the PPI drugs prescribed which are only good for short term use but NOT in the long term as they cause many problems which you can read by Googling;
“The danger of using PPI drugs”

The therapy I have pioneered which is not used by other classical homeopaths is designed to help the stomach to return to normal by accelerating the passage of food down the gut which is done by Nat Phos 6x and the Arnica 30c in designed to help the eroded Esophagus and the LES to return to normal in a few weeks. I have already added the Robinia to help reduce the acid flow and I hope that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will cure your problem in a few weeks.

For the record I shall copy my default therapy for GERD:

Dear Sir,

Many thanks for the detailed message,

i will follow these steps and report back once i start my therapy. Also sir, you mentioned arnice wet dose thrice, is it along with Nat Phos? and also i assume that it would be 1 tablespoon of arnice each time, please correct me sir

Dear Sir,

Most lkely i will receive my medication today by post, I am very eager to start with the medication and also follow your guidelines.

I just wanted to add something, you asked me before what was the diagnosis from the endoscopy and i answered that the doctor told me that the LES was not closing properly. Today i looked at my Endoscopy report (this was done 3 weeks back). It says i have an hernia at the cardia and widening of the diaphgram.

As i have seen in many posts where you recommend Nat phos, i strongly believe my condition also will be cured by Nat Phos + Arnica.

I have one more question sir, the esophagael spasms i get sometimes when i go out in cold weather or take hot showers, will that also be solved by these medications? Appreciate your time and answer in helping me. Thanks

• Joe says:
December 10, 2014 at 10:24 PM (Edit)
Frankly I do not believe that your case is as bad as your doctors have diagnosed it to be.

I have already prescribed for your GERD and you will use it as prescribed and report your response in 48 hours.

I cannot diagnose your spasms and we will observe how you respond in a few days.

Dear Sir,

I am reporting my status after two weeks of the recommended medicine Nat Phos 6x + Arnica. Frankly it has cleared 90% of symptoms, I found Nat phos 6x has completely removed my feeling of food getting stuck in my esophagus and difficulty swallowing. I feel better day by day, I am still taking 4 pills after the three meals daily.

I also noticed that with Arnica my esophagal spasms have dissappeared completely. I sometimes get them, but after i take arnica + nat phos they are gone which is a miracle. You have helped me to a great extent sir and i am really thankful to you.

Can i continue this therapy for as long as i want? Are there any long term side effects using Nat phos and arnica daily? I was using the Arnica pellets mixed in water till now which is getting over, so i will order liquid form from the stores you sent me online.

REPLY December 29

I am indeed glad to learn that my therapy aka “Joepathy” has cured yet another desperate case of GERD from which you have been suffering from for the last 10 years. I presume that the succession of physicians you have consulted had given you up as impossible to cure and it is fortunate that you located my Website 2 weeks ago and consulted me.

You have inquired if you can continue the therapy I prescribed originally:

Nat Phos 6x dose 4 tablets after each of 3 meals
Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily

You have also inquired “Are there any long term side effects using Nat phos and arnica daily?”

There are no long term after effects from using the Arnica as I am taking a dose myself nightly since 1996 and have proved that it is indeed a Miracle Remedy which keeps Cholesterol, Triglycerides, Blood Sugar and many other common ailments controlled at normal levels.

Nat Phos 6x is not a drug and is safe to use but I do not have any experience in using it in the dosage you have got used to take — 4 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. You can reduce the dosage to 3 tablets for a week and to 2 tablets for another week and report your response for further advice.

The idea is to stabilize your digestive system and to use the NP only when your stomach needs the additional support from this remedy which works by accelerating the passage of food down the gut, thereby ensuring that HCl acid is not permitted to form in the stomach, which in your case was the root cause of your GERD and other problems which caused you so much distress.

Report progress weekly to enable me to advise you.

Baby CURED of Baby GERD in5 weeks

Thursday, November 20th, 2014

I am copying below the case of a baby who was CURED of his Baby GERD in a 5 weeks.

Hello Joe,

I have a 9 week old boy who is slightly over 12lbs. He was diagnosed with acid reflux 3 weeks ago and prescribed Zantac. The drug seemed to work wonders for the first few days and then his acid refux symptoms seemed to progressively get worse. The doctor just recently increased his dose of Zantac. I don’t think the medicine is working well and I prefer to use natural means.

Symptoms: I am unable to nurse my baby since he refuses the breast (I have to pump and bottle feed). When I feed him the bottle (with breastmilk) he is fine while he is eating, but afterwards always spits up. He has constant gas. In addition to giving him Zantac. I have also been using colic calm and he has been wearing a hazlewood necklace for the past two weeks (this hasn’t seemed to work). I would like to go back to nursing him from my breast as pumping for every feeding as well as taking care for my 23month old is getting exhausting.

Should I proceed with your normal ‘prescription’ of Nat Phos? Also what recommendation do you have for changes in my diet (I’ve a vegetarian who just recently cut out dairy to see if that helped). I am willing to do whatever it takes for my baby…

Thanks for all you do!

Sonya

I noticed that you have addressed me by my given name, Joe.
I do not permit being addressed by name on my website, as I only permit my peers and close friends to do so.

Here in Sri Lanka where I live, we have a modicum of respect for age.
I am 86 years old.

Dear Dr. De Livera

Please accept my apologies. I did not intend to disrespect you in any way.

I noticed how you replied to subsequent post concerning a baby with a similar problem. I started my baby on the Nat Phos last night and will continue to do so as you outlined below to ‘salempeacock’.

Could you please tell me know more about specific foods I should avoid eating that will help my baby?

Thanks so much!

Very Respectfully,
Sonya

Apology accepted. I felt that I should protest because it did seem strange to me have a stranger addressing me an 86 year old, by name on a first encounter.

You did right by giving baby Nat Phos 6x (half tablet before and the balance after) a feed.

I would suggest that you too take the same Nat Phos tablets , 2 after each meal, as the effect will pass over to baby in your breast milk.

Keep me advised of his response in 24 hours.

Do not ever give him the dangerous PPI drugs like Zantac and about 50 other brands which is what doctors are programmed to give even baby patients although they are all aware of the serious damage these drugs cause to adults which is only second to the damage cause by Statins which are liberally prescribed to reduce Cholesterol.

Dear Dr. De Livera,

Thank you for accepting my apology and the quick response!

I have discontinued use of the PPI drug and am so glad I did after reading everything about it.

I will definitely report back after 24 hours. I am affirming that the Nat Phos is working and will be reporting back great news soon…

V/R,
Sonya

Good Morning Dr. De Livera,

Thanks again for the support you are providing, I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. This was the soonest I was able to update.

My son has been on Nat Phos for 36 hours as you advised and his progress is as follows:

Initial 24 hours:
-Gas seemed to exit his body less forcefully and had a very strong foul odor
-The first 4 feedings went well with minimal spit up and fussing
-The last 2 feedings he squealed in pain and had a large amount of spit up
-I did not administer Nat Phos during the middle of the night feeding

Please note: I administered 1 tsp of 100% aloe vera juice to help soothe his tummy in the late evening (please let me know if I should not do this)

Subsequent 12 hours:

-First two feedings were difficult (he was in pain and didn’t want to finish nursing) so his subsequent naps were short and he was fussy
-The remaining feedings of the day I began giving him a full tablet of Nat Phos before and after the feeding
-The late afternoon feeding went very, very well he nursed very well and did not squeal in pain during the feeding. He had some fussiness after the feeding and spit up quite a bit. This feeding was followed by the restful (and only) nap of the day.
The next feeding went ok, he got a full nursing but squealed in pain in between switching breasts, this feeding was followed by spit up and burping. I’m waiting for him to fall asleep now for a catnap before I feed him again and lay him down for the evening.
-Note: all day he has been having very foul smelling gas
-Also note: Today I started him infant pro biotics and plan on continuing this unless otherwise directed.

I am very much looking forward to hearing how I should proceed. And again thank you so much for your time and sharing your knowledge.

Very Respectfully,
Sonya Gardner

He seems to be responding satisfactorily for 36 hours under my therapy.

” I administered 1 tsp of 100% aloe vera juice to help soothe his tummy in the late evening (please let me know if I should not do this)”
DO NOT EVER GIVE BABY ALOE VERA JUICE IN THE FUTURE.

Dr. De Livera,

Thank you so much for guidance. I will not give my baby aloe anymore.

I was wondering if you can tell me about two things: 1) Will the foul odor gas subside once he is cured? , is this smell the cause of detoxification? and 2) Seeing how he is responding satisfactorily for the first 36 hours, it is expected that he will be cured by the end of 72 hours and that i will no longer have to administer Nat Phos?

Thank you so much,

V/R,
Sonya

I believe that your baby needs a repopulation of the bacteria (flora and fauna) in his gut. Ask for a Probiotic suitable for babies from your pediatrician. It is very likely that there is some bacteria that are causing the milk to generate methane which is what causes the unpleasant odour which incidentally is not usual for babies. The Probiotic will fix this problem by repopulating the gut with ‘good’ bacteria and all will be well.

Glad to learn that baby responded so very quickly in just 36 hours and if in fact he does not show any signs of distress in the next 72 hours, please feel free to stop all medication.

In any case Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug and you are invited to look it up on Google under “Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt”

Good Morning Dr. De Livera,

Thank you so much for helping me regain my son’s health. It is safe to say that he is cured!

He does spit up still on occasion but it is mimimal and it is not accompanied by painful squeels or cries.

I really appreciate you very much!!!!!

I would also like to share with you and others an additional intervention that supplemented the therapy you prescribed. I believe my son was suffering from “Lactose Overload” caused by an over abundant milk supply (more information found here: http://www.babycareadvice.com/babycare/general_help/article.php?id=18)

As you discussed in the previous reply, gas should not be foul in odor. I have started him on pro biotics and also did some research regarding infant foul gas and found the above website.

In an attempt to have a ‘backstock’ of milk for returning back to work and to ensure that I didn‘t experience low supply (like I did with my first) I ended up creating an oversupply which set the stage for ‘lactose overload’ and then was realized by the oversupply coupled with my poor management of feedings. The oversupply was created when I began expressing extra milk after each morning feed starting when he was 3 weeks old; I would often express 6-8 ouncces after feeding him. My feeding management was poor in the essencse that I switched breasts too frequently causing my son to get too much foremilk compared to hind milk.

For the past 36 hours I have been block feeding him ensuring he is getting more hind milk and his smelly gas has completely subsided. I am still continuing the pro biotics which will be good to help undue any depletion of good bacteria that occurred because of the PPI (he was on for 3 weeks).

Thanks again for all you do!

Very Respectfull,
Sonya
