Most
doctors will tell parents that the child will
eventally ‘grow out’ of the problem,
but unfortunately many suffer with this affliction
throughout their teen years and even into adulthood.
Some very extreme measures have been used by
parents to ‘encourage’ the child
to awaken at night, many involving scare tactics
or punishments. The emotional damage to self-image
and self-confidence can last a lifetime.
The
stress affects not only the bedwetter but their
entire family. The extra work involved with
the daily changing and washing of bed linens,
the frustration of parents looking for a solution,
the feeling of embarrassment… the list
is endless.
The
inability of the patient to be awakened by the
nerve signal being sent from the bladder to
the brain has puzzled clinicians for years.
Today,
thanks to a team of dedicated healthcare practitioners,
a nutritional solution for all but the most
advanced or pathological cases has been found.
Clinical
studies began in 1995 and we are happy to announce
that help has arrived. This program is relatively
inexpensive, non-invasive and easy-to-use. It
involves a physical examination by a trained
healthcare professional, dietary changes and,
when appropriate, nutritional supplementation.
Each
patient will be examined and a urine specimen
analyzed to screen out possible disease or pathological
disorder. If such a problem is found, the patient
will promptly be referred to an appropriate
healthcare practitioner. However, pathological
causes of bedwetting are uncommon.
Many
theories abound when it comes to explaining
the cause of bedwetting, but nothing has ever
proven to be successful. Essentially we know
that bedwetting can be caused by several factors:
(1) a urological disease affecting either the
urinary bladder or the nervous system; (2) a
nutritional problem; or (3) a physical misalignment
of the pelvis causing weakness of the pelvic
musculature that supports the urinary bladder.
Your healthcare practitioner is trained in recognizing
and treating these problems. All that is needed
is the patient’s cooperation and most
cases are resolved quickly and easily.
It
all started here…
This
program has been developed under the guidance
of Dr. Howard Loomis, who has worked his entire
professional career on nutritionally-related
problems, beginning with problems of digestion
and utilization of nutrients contained in the
diet.
Dr.
Loomis, a pioneer in the use of plant enzyme
supplements, has found that many patients who
eat too much sugar have tendencies toward many
different types of annoying symptoms, including
bedwetting. For several years, Dr. Loomis worked
on a solution to this puzzling problem and finally
he understood that vitamin and mineral imbalances
associated with inadequate carbohydrate digestion
and assimilation combined with other possible
nutritional deficiencies were the major factor.
Since
no pharmaceutical answer has ever been found,
no drugs are used in this revolutionary approach.
The healthcare practitioners who incorporate
this treatment procedure into their practice
are all dedicated professionals who believe
in natural and common sense approaches to non-disease
or pathological problems such as enuresis (bedwetting).
