As i observed that whenever i gave ip6 to hardik his sgot and sgpt start increasing.Earlier when his sgot /sgpt reaches 160/427 ..in Jan 2016...... I stopped desirox and ip6 for a month to get the values back to normal which took around a month ....and then firstly i started only desirox ,....not ip6. ...values remain same as last tested and then i slowly add on ip6 on alternate days ....his sgpt and sgot again increased to 160/143 .....and he had swelled eyes .....everytime...when liver values changed.
.. .....Is it possible that intake of IP6(510 mg) by 2 and half child weighing 12 kg shows adverse effects on SGOT and SGPT.....and increases it beyond original values by 3-4 times.
And one more question is:---
My. Mother 's blood always remain at 6(I think she is Thal minor and I m inherited from her but she refused to test) and is not increasing from past 2 years .She is around 55-60 of age....and now her health is refusing to favour her....and cause severe pain in all joints especially knee joints,weight is increasing day by day instead of cycling ,exercise and walking ...
Plz guide about hardik and what to do to increase her blood levels ....and energy too...can she take IP6......plz tell
What to do for her good health

Hardik,
Increased LFT's would be more likely because of desirox than ip6. You can see by dividing desirox dose if it helps. Also, for such a young child with not so high ferritin, it really needs to be seen whether desirox dose is absolute necessary at this point or not. Usually, there is some room to pause chelation for a while in very young children. You should include wheatgrass in her diet as it may prove very beneficial in your case. I would be focusing more on ip6 and wheatgrass at this point than forcing desirox to work.
As for your mother, low Hb do cause joint pains, wheatgrass can increase energy levels when Hb is low. Anyone can take ip6 so there's nothing wrong in that. Calcium and Vitamin D tests can also be done to see if there are deficiencies, as they are very common in women as they age.

It is the general observation that Desirox brand increases the LFTs more in thals than other brands
