UPDATES!
IF you are using Puritan's Pride 600 mg Calcium the correct dosage per day is 7 - 8 capsules! Please see article below for details.
Elaine says that we CAN use p-5-p when using PST because PST
is a frequency, not the enzyme itself. This topic is in relation to
phenol sensitivity.

Did You Know...that you can protect your loved ones from harmful EMF Radiation?
When was the last time you saw the meter man checking the numbers on your meter? Chances are you’ve had a smart meter- able to be read digitally from the electric company office- for at least 9 years. Why should you be concerned? Now that the meter is ‘smart’, it is emitting harmful EMF, radio frequency, and radiation, including 5G, that is detrimental to health.
Smart meter EMF protection is available and guaranteed to block the most EMF from your smart meter, which is attached to the side of your house. The precision, made in the USA, Smart Meter Guard is the first and original guard to safely shield over 98% of the EMF, radio frequency, and radiation emitting from smart meters. Beware of Chinese made spinoffs that are not equal, but half the price. The Smart Meter Guard also blocks the EMF waves the go into the house, including 5G, so it doesn’t require any additional shielding on the other side of the wall from the smart meter. Why should that matter to you? Because 5G is deadly to health, and many people have bad health due to EMF.
By using the Faraday cage technology, EMF waves emanating from your smart meter are absorbed into the mesh and shunted to ground. This smart meter shield safely shields you and your family from the EMF that smart meters emit, and it is super easy to install. The hardest thing you’ll have to do is wait patiently for it to arrive.

THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION...Ask Elaine
What are signs of high alanine?
High alanine can have no symptoms and range all the way to symptoms of ASD. It all depends on the level of MAO-A activity a person has. The less MAO-A activity the greater the symptoms.
If the PST works for my son, does this correct the problem or is
this something he will always need?
Because we aren't correcting the cause of the PST destruction, most likely your son will need to stay on the PST disc. This is also what we have seen with the Respen-A™.
Elaine, is calcium lactate o.k. to use instead of calcium carbonate?
It is okay.
What causes us to lose zinc?
Pyroluria. I think a copper imbalance would as well.
What is the correct amount of capsulEs to us if I am using
Puritan's Pride calcium carbonate 60O mg?
Health professionals make the biggest mistakes when it comes to labels. This is a problem for all concerned and should be corrected. What you want to know is that the milligrams shown on the front of the label indicate how much actual calcium you will get per serving size. You have to read the back of the label, Supplement Facts, to find out what the serving size is, for instance, two capsules is a serving size.
What presents confusion is what is shown under Amount Per Serving (APS). For this example we will use the Puritan’s Pride Calcium 600 mg. In this case, the APS is written as ‘Calcium (as calcium carbonate) 1200 mg’. Calcium is not stable by itself, so it has to be bound to something, in this case the carbonate. When you read ‘as’, this means that only half of the caplet is calcium, while the other half is carbonate that the calcium binds to. The 1200 mg represents the amount of ‘product’ (calcium AND carbonate) in two caplets, NOT the amount of calcium! If the APS reads Calcium Carbonate and there are no parentheses, that means that only half of the caplet is calcium, the other half is carbonate, so again, only half of the mg under APS is actual calcium. IF the label under APS shows ‘from’ calcium carbonate then the 1200 mg is total calcium, which means that the front of the bottle would also read 1200 mg.
Calcium comes from many sources; limestone, oyster shell, coral, etc. Calcium from the oyster shell is bound within the matrix of the shell and we, as humans, can’t pull it out of there, which means we don’t absorb it. Coral calcium presents the same matrix problem. You want calcium carbonate from limestone- that’s what our body uses the best. Calcium carbonate is the only natural calcium, and the one best suited for our bodies. All else is man-made.

World Autism Rates and MAO-A
Tracking the rates of autism around the world is a bit of a challenge. This is because many nations do not track or report their autism rates. There are also no specific, uniform criteria for assessing autism. Even if there were, there are many nations that do not have the resources to conduct assessments.
In 2020 I took a look at current statistics. Of the studies relied on, the dates ranged from the years 2004 - 2017. Age groups targeted for the study varied from ages 0 - 26 to ages 4 - 7, to simply anyone diagnosed, or just specific grade levels targeted.
Because of the disparity in data collecting, I focused on the top two countries with the highest rates of autism, South Korea and the United States.. I highly suspected that South Korea would remain highest in autism rates when the 2022 study of all countries was released…but I was wrong. Surprisingly, neither is in the top 5, and South Korea isn’t even on the list. This article will focus on what I learned in 2020. Why the countries with the current highest rates of autism are all in the Middle East is beleaguering and will; have to wait for more research.
When you look at the general beliefs of what causes autism, the list includes vaccines, foods, chemicals like pesticides and MSG, even toxins in beauty supplies. A major component that is overlooked is the use of electronics and the effect that has on MAO-A. We know that MAO-A is low in kids with autism, and it is known that electronic devices are the predominant go-to for kids these days.
MAOA, known as the warrior gene, is an enzyme that breaks down the neurotransmitters serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. The rapid degradation of these neurotransmitters is essential for their proper functioning during synaptic transmission in the central nervous system and in the periphery. When MAO-A is low, the result is higher levels of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine and lower levels of their respective metabolites.
The name ‘warrior gene’ is rather incongruous. ‘Warrior ' conjures a strong, stoic man who can protect and provide for his people. However, ‘warrior gene’ is commonly associated with violent behavior, and kids with autism can be aggressive in their behaviors.
In Asia, the number of children registered as autistic is significantly higher in urban areas than rural. This begs the question as to whether this is due to a lack of awareness of the option to seek services, or if, for environmental reasons, there truly are less autistic children in rural areas. Why then, are there higher rates of autism in urban areas? Possible answers are population density, wealth, and access to Digital Technology, an indirect stimuli that has an effect on your MAO-A. Let's look at digital technology in terms of our top two countries as relates to highest rates of autism:
The United States is home to the world’s largest technology companies such as Google, Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft. The United States is a powerhouse in global technology. Silicon Valley inspired and produced an entire generation of software engineers and technology companies, and is currently home to some of the biggest tech companies in the world. EVERYWHERE you look in the U.S., people are using digital technology. Parents use devices as babysitters for their kids.
South Korea is the country with the fastest internet speed in the world, and is ranked number one for the availability of high-speed internet at home. Though ranked high specifically for home internet speeds, the country also has the highest internet speeds in the world, which means entertainment options from games to video streaming are accessible anywhere. Research shows that electronic devices increase dopamine, which increases MAO-B, which decreases MAO-A, so the two are not in balance anymore.
The MA0-A gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called monoamine oxidase-A. This enzyme is part of a family of enzymes that break down molecules called monoamines through a chemical reaction known as oxidation. Among the monoamines broken down by monoamine oxidase-A are certain chemicals that act as neurotransmitters, which transmit signals between nerve cells in the brain. Neurotransmitters are broken down when signaling is no longer needed.
Specifically, monoamine oxidase-A is involved in the breakdown of the neurotransmitters serotonin, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine. Signals transmitted by serotonin regulate mood, emotion, sleep, and appetite. Epinephrine and norepinephrine control the body's response to stress. Dopamine transmits signals within the brain to produce smooth physical movements. Monoamine oxidase-A also helps break down monoamines found in the diet. It seems to be particularly important in the breakdown of excess tyramine, which is found in cheese and other foods.
Monoamine oxidase-A appears to be involved in normal brain development before birth. The enzyme plays a role in the controlled self-destruction of cells (apoptosis), which is an important process in the development of many tissues and organs, including the brain.
When MAO-B is high it makes you run on dopamine. Dopamine is responsible for allowing you to feel pleasure, satisfaction and motivation. When you feel good that you have achieved something, it's because you have a surge of dopamine in the brain. Dopamine is most notably involved in helping us feel pleasure as part of the brain's reward system. Shopping, and smelling cookies baking in the oven — also can trigger dopamine release, or a "dopamine rush." This feel-good neurotransmitter is also involved in reinforcement.
Guess what? There are dopamine targets on electronic devices to trigger the dopamine. Why should this concern you? Dopamine is addictive. Cell phones and texting trigger dopamine, but making a phone call doesn't. Wait for it, there’s more.
"I feel tremendous guilt,” admitted Chamath Palihapitiya, former Vice President of User Growth at Facebook, to an audience of Stanford students. He was responding to a question about his involvement in exploiting consumer behavior. “The short-term, dopamine-driven feedback loops that we have created are destroying how society works,” he explained. In his talk, he highlighted something most of us know but few really appreciate: smartphones and the social media platforms they support are turning us into bona fide addicts. While it’s easy to dismiss this claim as hyperbole, platforms like Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram leverage the very same neural circuitry used by slot machines and cocaine to keep us using their products as much as possible. Taking a closer look at the underlying science may give you pause the next time you feel your pocket buzz, or think of letting your child play with a device.
The Levers in Our Brains – Dopamine and social reward:
Dopamine is a chemical produced by our brains that plays a starring role in motivating behavior. It gets released when we take a bite of delicious food, after we exercise, and, importantly, when we have successful social interactions. In an evolutionary context, it rewards us for beneficial behaviors and motivates us to repeat them.
The human brain contains four major dopamine “pathways,” or connections between different parts of the brain that act as highways for chemical messages called neurotransmitters. Each pathway has its own associated cognitive and motor (movement) processes. Three of these pathways—the mesocortical, mesolimbic, and nigrostriatal pathways—are considered our “reward pathways” and have been shown to be dysfunctional in most cases of addiction. They are responsible for the release of dopamine in various parts of the brain, which shapes the activity of those areas.
Most of your dopamine is generated deep in the midbrain, and it is released in many different areas across the brain. These areas are largely responsible for behaviors associated with learning, habit formation, and addiction.
While the reward pathway are distinct in their anatomical organization, all three dopamine pathways become active when anticipating or experiencing rewarding events. In particular, they reinforce the association between a particular stimulus or sequence of behaviors and the feel-good reward that follows. Every time a response to a stimulus results in a reward, these associations become stronger through a process called long-term potentiation. This process strengthens frequently used connections between brain cells called neurons by increasing the intensity at which they respond to particular stimuli.
Although not as intense as a hit of cocaine, positive social stimuli will similarly result in a release of dopamine, reinforcing whatever behavior preceded it. Cognitive neuroscientists have shown that rewarding social stimuli—laughing faces, positive recognition by our peers, messages from loved ones—activate the same dopaminergic reward pathways. Smartphones have provided us with a virtually unlimited supply of social stimuli, both positive and negative. Every notification, whether it’s a text message, a “like” on Instagram, or a Facebook notification, has the potential to be a positive social stimulus and dopamine influx.
Unexpected rewards increase the activity of dopamine neurons, acting as positive feedback signals for the brain regions associated with the preceding behavior. As learning takes place, the timing of activity will shift until it occurs upon the cue alone, with the expected reward having no additional effect. And should the expected reward not be received, dopamine activity drops, sending a negative feedback signal to the relevant parts of the brain, weakening the positive association.
Respen-A™ is a homeopathic dilution of reserpine, which is an old blood pressure medication. Reserpine has been shown to double the activity of the mitochondria enzyme, monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A). Decreased MAO-A activity has been correlated with ASD. Respen-A™ brings MAO-A and MAO-B back into balance.
When you begin looking at how MAO-A (Monoamine Oxidase-A is an enzyme at the cellular level that helps to maintain neuron firing rates throughout the body) is at the root of so many neurodegenerative diseases as well as aging, you'll see that it can be compared to the roots of a tree. Think of MAO-A as the Tree of Life, and compare this to how the cells function in your body- at the most basic level as the science is far deeper and more intricate. As you go up the tree, with MAO-A being the roots, MAO-A activity is required for the ATP (an energy molecule, or the 'trunk' of the tree) production to run all of the chemical reactions (direct 'branches') in the body. These chemical reactions are Liver Detoxification, Norepinephrine Utilization, Serotonin Utilization, and Histamine2 Production. Each of these chemical reactions stimulate further functions ('twigs') of the body, like Eye Contact, Language Learning, Socialization Motivation, Mood/Sense of Well Being, Gastric Acid, and Digestive Enzymes to name a few. Some twigs are on more than one branch, indicating that more than one branch stimulates those functions.
Respen-A™ increases the activity of MAO-A, or unties its hands, which allows the entire body to function and be healthy again. The newest research shows that MAO-A is one of the greatest detoxifiers in the liver (toxins, drugs, metals, chemicals). If you get the MAO-A production healthy again by increasing its activity, then the liver can do its job of detoxification. This applies to every branch on the tree, like norepinephrine. Without MAO-A activity, the norepinephrine can't get converted into its active neurotransmitter, which means that norepinephrine can't be utilized. This results in every twig on the norepinephrine branch (Memory & Social Recognition, Fine & Gross Motor Skills, Sensory Integration & Discrimination, Concentration and Focus) reacting in chaos.
Smartphones and social media apps aren’t going anywhere anytime soon, so it is up to us as the users to decide how much of our kid's time we want to dedicate to them. Unless the advertisement-based profit model changes, companies like Facebook will continue to do everything they can to keep your eyes glued to the screen as often as possible. And by using algorithms to leverage our dopamine-driven reward circuitry, they stack the cards—and our brains—against us. If you keep using things that raise MAO-B, then using Respen-A™ isn’t going to help you. Above all, mindful use of technology is the best tool you have. So the next time you choose to let your child use electronic devices, you might ask yourself, “Is this really worth lowering his MAO-A for?”
