An old post kept up for posterity's sake!

Sept. of 06:  here to tell you about distinctive nutritional choices for you and your precious little ones. Especially those with children having special needs. Why give them vitamins? To start with, to build their immune system so that they can ward off the host of various germs and irritants that come their way. Let's help them all we can! Our son Samuel is five years old, and has Down Syndrome. He is the youngest of our five children, ranging 15 to 5. 

 We have chosen to use Shaklee products because they are pharmaceutical grade, coming from a 50-year-old company that has it together in the nutrition area. More on that later. I'm going to list the products that we use on Samuel and our other children. May the information be helpful. (As a note, I put them in plain yogurt or applesauce for Samuel and down they go. No messing around!) VITA LEA MULTI VITAMIN: Provides the daily balance of vitamins and minerals for all adults and children. As soon as Sam could swallow, I gave him the Adult Vita Lea. Forget the kids stuff. B-COMPLEX: 

Just great for mood, skin, hair and energy. Also helps the brain. OMEGA GUARD (Fish Oil): A good fat that improves brain function, cardio, etc. Omega 3. NUTRIFERON: Immune builder (patented) GLA COMPLEX: Another good fat of Omega 6. CAROTOMAX: An antioxidant for cells. VITA C SUSTAINED RELEASE: General immune builder VITA E COMPLEX: Wards off ear infections. THIS IS OUR SAMUEL THE DAY AFTER OPEN-HEART SURGERY ON NOVEMBER 9, 2005. What a terrific experience we had at Charlotte, NC's CMC Hospital. He came through with flying colors. His physicians and attendants were amazed at his fast recovery...we contribute his miraculous recovery to the many intensive prayers of our church family, and the extensive Shaklee products we gave him prior to surgery and while in the hospital. Here are our other four children with Samuel. Boy were they happy to see him safe after the big event.
