@questforhealth I may have missed it in the thread, but what brand of citrus pectin are you using?

@questforhealth Thanks for sharing the threads. The citrus pectin sounds promising in reading your posts. Might be something to try after school is out for the summer in case it causes any stomach issues. We did a bottle of apple pectin last summer - didn't notice much difference but also didn't notice any gut irritation. I took some myself as well

@JulofEnoch I take a regular 325 mg aspirin 1-2x/wk dissolved in water so I thought I'd cut it in half or 1/4 if I went the aspirin route. Could always get some baby aspirin too

Even with all this great information (and I'll take any other suggestions as well), I still have want to circle back to the original question if the group has any input if aspirin is safe for a 10 year old.

@questforhealth thank you for all the information! I'd love any links you have along with all the info you've already shared

@JulofEnoch B1, B2, B3, B6, B12

@JulofEnoch thanks for all the suggestions. We've tried a lot of things, some working too various degrees. Currently doing b-vitamins (b1, b2, b6, b12, heavier on thiamine), tyrosine, taurine, glycine, magnesium, colostrum on weekdays with a break on the weekends. Haven't tried biotin or manganese specifically so I'll do some research there and maybe incorporate some gelatin/juice (I take gelatin so have some on hand). Salt is easy enough to uptick as well. I do the carrot salads as well with all the family - can always add a little extra salt there too or in the milk powder pancakes in the morning. Thanks again!

Hi All - first time poster here and thanks for all the great information in this forum. I was lucky enough to stumble upon Peating about six months ago and haven't looked back. I'm sure this topic was covered many times on RPF, but I'm curious if most feel aspirin is generally safe to give to children (10 year old in my case). My 10 year old has some significant focus/attention issues and feel like a low dose aspirin a few times/week could potentially help from what I've read from the peat community. I know there's the Reyes Syndrome issue but it sounds like that's mostly for kids with fevers (and probably rare and likely a scare tactic). Any advice or first hand experience anyone shares is appreciated and like the forum says, I know this is not medical advice. Thanks in advance!
