I get letters (bolds and links added by Dr. Z)
My son is 3 1/2 years old. Since he was six months old he has suffered from chronic ear infections. The doctors placed tubes in both of his ears.
The last episode lasted for two months. Jason was placed on four types of antibiotics, to no avail. It was finally suggested that his adenoids and his tonsils were to be removed surgically. At that point I decided to look at other alternatives.
In addition to the ear infections, my son had terrible mood swings, threw constant tantrums. He showed hyperactive and often destructive behavior. He had recurring sinus infections, constant runny nose and black circles under his eyes.
A co-worker recommended that I take my son to see Dr. Z. Her seven year old grandson had experienced dramatic improvements in his health under the care of Dr. Z.
I took my son to Dr. Z's office on a Friday afternoon. With his unusual muscle testing Dr. Z determined my son way allergic to sugar and basically all carbohydrates, and probably suffered from blood sugar swings/hypoglycemia.
Dr. Z suggested that Jason's digestion was not working properly, and that he was suffering from candida overgrowth due to his extensive exposure to antibiotics. He recommended that I take him off all carbohydrates and put him on an anti-candida regimen.
Needless to say, I was scared to death to face possibly excessive tantrums because of the change of diet. The weekend was very tough. I had a screaming and upset kid. My husband was upset with me trying to change my child's diet.
By Tuesday, five days later, I had a new kid. My Jason had turned into a sweet, mellow, loving child.
- He was open to new food experiences.
- Now a week and a half later I notice a definite increase in his natural positive energy.
- Sibling fighting between Jason and his brother has decreased by more than 50%.
- Now I find them late in the evenings sitting in bed and talking.
He was an extremely picky eater before. During the last two weeks he has tried all kinds of new foods. The entire family has benefited from this new approach to foods. We all eat the same. Both Mom and Dad have lost a few pounds. The atmosphere in our house in calm and much more loving. Initially my husband was not supportive, but now he has seen with his own eyes the wonderful changes in his son. He is very excited about that.
My son's "ear infections" appear to have vanished. His runny nose is gone. The black circles under his eyes have vastly improved.
One day my son was given a piece of cake at school against my clear instructions. He came home a changed boy.
He was flipped out and upset and screaming most of the night.
These are the clear effects of sugar.

Dr. Z's Comments
The letter from Suzanne actually requires no comments.
Do NOT give your children any sugar. You owe this to them!
Do NOT eat sugar! You owe this to yourself!
Look at this:
- In 1822 we ate the amount of added sugar in one 12 ounce can of soda every five days.
- Today we eat that much sugar every seven hours.
In 2009, more than 50 percent of all Americans consume one-half pound of sugar PER DAY—translating to a whopping 180 pounds of sugar per year!

2) PharmaGABA-100
GABA (gamma-amino butyric acid) is the most important inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. Research suggests an overactive mind from daily stressors can decrease GABA activity.
Increasing GABA levels may result in greater relaxation, without drowsiness. In fact, GABA enhances mental focus!
PharmaGABA, a natural form of the neurotransmitter GABA , stimulates alpha waves in the brain, which are believed to cause
- improved mental focus
- relaxation
- stress reduction
Known as "nature's calming neurotransmitter", an adequate amount of GABA in the nervous system is necessary to cope with stress....Read More
