I find I can hide quite a lot of disgusting stuff in chocolate
dessert. I know your daughter isn't supposed to have sweet things
but perhaps until you can get some improvement it might be worth
trying. Chocolate is an excellent disguiser of bitter tastes. If you
find a suitable vehicle to hide the supplements in, keep tasting as
you add them in slowly. B6 and zinc are notorious for tasting
bitter, so watch out particularly for these. Otherwise try jam
(jelly) - I know it's sugar-laden again. B6 is available in
injectable form, but I suppose to do that you have to find a
doctor/nurse to give it and there's the problem (I assume) of
daughter's consent.

poisioning. If she takes supplements (zinc & B6 critical due to
urine pyrroles), avoids sweets and gets enough sleep she functions
pretty well. For the past year, has been having psychotic episodes
during periods due to extremely heavy periods. After taking calcium
d-glucarate for past two months, had normal period & no psychosis.
She was feeling so well that I went out of town on business for two
days. Thought my husband would follow my instructions (make sure
she takes her supplements, avoids sweets, eats regularly, doesn't
overexercize & gets enough sleep); but he didn't. She had waffles
for breakfast, quit taking her supplements and went on two hour hike
w/o eating lunch. I left Thursday at 11 am & arrived at the airport
on Friday at 7:30pm, but by then she was psychotic. Doesn't think
clearly and is refusing supplements and natural progesterone cream.
If I can get her back on supplements quickly, she should respond.
We had hoped to start chelating soon.
