We’re talking with Dr. Joel Wallach today about infant and child supplemental doses.0:15 – 0:45 Caller: Hi Dr. Wallach, I have your book “Let’s Play Doctor,” but it doesn’t have doses for babies or kids under 65 pounds. What do I give my infant?0:45 – 1:30 Dr. Wallach: Great question. The key is body weight. Our Healthy Start Pack is designed for 100 pounds of body weight—one full dose per day. For lighter folks, we scale it down.1:30 – 2:00 Dr. Wallach: For someone 80 to 120 pounds, cut the dose in half—half at breakfast and half at dinner, totaling one dose daily.2:00 – 2:30 Dr. Wallach: For kids around 40 to 60 pounds—average 50 pounds—give one-third of the dose daily. The pack will last about two months.2:30 – 3:00 Dr. Wallach: For a 30-pound child, one-third dose per day—pack lasts three months. The principle is one dose per 100 pounds of body weight.3:00 – 3:45 Dr. Wallach: We recommend liquids for easier dosing in children. Products like Kid’s Toddy—a great liquid supplement. Also add EFAs—essential fatty acids—about 1 to 2 per day for 50 pounds.3:45 – 4:15 Dr. Wallach: Tropical Plus is excellent for little kids—one teaspoon per 20 pounds of body weight, given twice daily.
