Well, I did try to stick to a supplement regimin. Honestly I did. But, with all the sickness (lung infections, bladder infection) and the busyness of spring, it has been really hard.
The irritating thing is that I have about 150 dollars worth of supplements sitting unused in the cupboard. I’ve tried to console myself that we’ll get back to them eventually. I sure hope I am right & that they help Nathan break through his next plateau. Right now, he’s still “climbing”, with only the GFCF diet on board.
It’s not that I don’t want to supplement him. He even tolerates most of it very well. Except for the Super Nu Thera, but…. I just fell off that wagon & am having an awful time climbing back on.
As another thought – Peru has the most wonderful mandarin oranges in the stores these days. Sweet, little, yummy. I think we’ve eaten at least 5 lbs in the last 2 or 3 weeks. I remember a time you could only get “Christmas Oranges” at ahem…Christmas. But, through the wonder of globalization, we can now eat little oranges most of the year.
I know it’s not 100 mile diet-friendly. I don’t care. Those suckers are the best. If you haven’t tried one yet, I suggest you do. Before we eat them all!

Oh, the supplements! Right off the top of my head I cannot tell you how many supplements we have my son on and yes, it can be tough to keep up with them. So…..I feel your pain. I feel like we need a chart like old people use to keep up with all their medications just to make certain we are giving Reiss everything everyday!
