Yes. The protocol seems to be very effective for most learning disabilities.
Medications and supplements such as leucovorin, iron or Vitamin D are allowed with the protocol when they are prescribed by a physician and used to address a deficinecy.
After the awakening period, many children will have an emotional/developmental age much younger than their chronological age. So yes, I’ve seen this many times before. It’s important to try to gauge your child’s emotional age and reset your expectations for that age. Allow them to work through the levels of normal development. This approach helps put their behaviors into context and allows the parent to align expectations with the emotional ability of the child. Some parents will over-focus on a smaller issue (constipation, bowel movement characteristics, giggling more, waking up earlier, holding hands over ears, moodiness, etc.) and interpret such an event as bad or negative instead of a phase in healing. Parents want their children to talk, but the lack of rapid speech improvement is also not an indication that balancing of the intestinal tract failed. Over-focusing in this manner may cause a parent to miss the bigger picture: this is just one step in the child’s gradual improvement.
The increase in chewing is part of the underlying developmental issues and anxiousness that becomes more apparent after the propionic acid levels are suppressed during awakening. Some will describe persistent chewing as “sensory-seeking.” Regards less of its exact origin, this typically resolves on its own as the child recovers using the protocol.

Neither rifaximin nor fish oil is associated with elevated liver enzymes. Any abnormal laboratory results should be shared with your physician.
Yes, it can. Long COVID or PASC (post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2) often involves injury of the central nervous system from the inflammatory surge triggered by COVID infection, overlapping issues from small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), and often chronic infections such as chronic sinusitis.nnThe Nemechek Protocol is effective in helping to restore nervous system functioning through the reduction of inflammation and the reversal of SIBO.nnThe chronic cough needs to be evaluated by either a pulmonologist or an ears, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist.
Generally, loose or frequent stools (diarrhea) will improve within the first few weeks. In some children with underlying inflammation of their intestinal tract (e.g., colitis or esophagitis), it might take 1-2 months before diarrhea ultimately resolves.
