PANDAS doesn’t always mean that charming animal living in the Chinese forest calmly munching on bamboo. It can also mean “Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections.” These disorders occur when strep triggers a misdirected immune response resulting in inflammation in a child’s brain. Seemingly overnight, a child with this disorder begins to exhibit life-changing symptoms such as OCD, anxiety, tics, personality changes, decline in math and handwriting abilities, sensory sensitivities, and restrictive eating.
PANDAS Network estimates that PANDAS affects as many as 1 in 200 children. How can one combat these devastating symptoms? DesBio’s streptococcus series therapy kits can help. In addition, DesBio has products to reduce symptoms associated with neurological symptoms (Focus RxS), inflammation (Comprehensive Detox Kit), and immune system function (Immune Support). Other products, such as Staph/Strep Combination target the symptoms specific to strep infections.
