Re: CSBrain Stuck: ADD-Alpha/Theta Dominant
tim, your brain mapping etc. sounds unteresting. What isThea dominant add? What problems are you exoerencing? Mary -- Original message from Tim Armantrout guardian...@hotmail.com: -- I was wondering if anyone on this list is familiar with an Alpha dominant version of ADD? I have had 2 brain mapping sessions, one with a LENS practitioner and one with a Neurofeedback practitioner. During regular waking consciousness, both showed an Alpha/Theta dominance overall, with a difficultyto stayin SMR, or low Beta.Reason I bring this up, is Ihad beenfeeling/sense like there was some physical/chemical interference withinsome of the brain's neural structures. Like a glue orchemical/crystaline coveringthat prevented optimal neurotransmitter communication.This is just an intuitiveguess. Does anyone know offhandwhat might do that in the brain and nervous system?I decided to look for something that would "cleanse" the brain and nervous system of any residues of any chemicalsand break anycrystaline coverings that prevented optimal brain health. I have done lots of cleanses/herbs/supplements in the past. Have been taking iodine/Iodoral (4 tabs/day)for 4 months. Before the iodine, did a month of MMS. Have been taking Olive leaf extract. All of these were helpful, but did not really make any significant changes in brain chemistry.Recently, Colloidal Silver came up as one possibility. I have been taking it for 2 weeks now, making my own, 12-15 ppm at 12 ounces a day. There does seem to be something happening, but it is too early to say for sure. My feeling is that I want to keep taking it.Does anyone know of anything else that might give the brain cells a good cleaning and clear out any residues? I am open to suggestions.Thanks in advance,Tim Windows Live: Make it easier for your friends to see what you’re up to on Facebook. Find out more.
Re: CSBrain Stuck: ADD-Alpha/Theta Dominant
Hi Tim, Yes, this sounds familiar to me. Our neurofeedback doctor ( I took my son for neurofeedback training) recommended that I take a supplement of omega 3 oils since the nerve cells are made of fat, and there is some evidence of deficiency in many people. I chose flax, which did seem to help a great deal. I also benefit from including several tablespoons of fat in my diet. I like to use a non hydrogenated margarine that has a balance of omega oils in it. A couple of things that I have found affect the brain are neurotoxins and parasites. The toxins can be chemical or biological, and the biotoxins are often missed. They can include fungal metabolites or algal toxins, or even Lyme disease. For more info on this line you may want to check out Drs Richie Shoemaker and Schaller. One is chronic neurotoxins dot com and the other is usmoldphysician dot com ( off the top of my head, so googling my be necessary). I did read that experimentally some found that there may be a connection between bipolar and parasites in the brain. The MMS might have taken care of that, and it might be that some good fat might really help. BTW, the colloidal silver seems to help my brain function better, for some reason. It might be in my case that a sinus fungal infection got into the brain, and the cs may be keeping that down to a mild roar.

CSBrain Stuck: ADD-Alpha/Theta Dominant 
This doesn't directly answer you question but another topic from my lecture yesterday discussed the b-3 in the form of Niacinamide has recently been shown to rebuild tubulars other good things in the brain. Anything you take to detox will be improved with any form of niacin. Good luck. I was wondering if anyone on this list is familiar with an Alpha dominant version of ADD? I have had 2 brain mapping sessions, one with a LENS practitioner and one with a Neurofeedback practitioner. During regular waking consciousness, both showed an Alpha/Theta dominance overall, with a difficulty to stay in SMR, or low Beta.
