Type of Spiritual Experience
Background
Instenon is based on Adenosine.
It is the opposite of adrenaline in that it does not stimulate and provoke the fight or flight response but calms and eases. It is thus healing as a drug and helps those with high blood pressure and endothelial dysfunction.
But here we have a study that shows it helps children too and heals them. Invocation of the parasympthetic nervous system heals, invocation of the sympathetic nervous system on any long term basis causes illness.
All children actually need is the correct vitamin and mineral balance provided by good food and invocation of the parasympathetic nervous system!
A description of the experience
Zh Nevrol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova. 2002;102(5):29-35. [The use of instenon in children with minimal brain dysfunction]. [Article in Russian] Zavadenko NN, Suvorinova NIu, Rumiantseva MV, Ovchinnikova AA.
Minimal brain dysfunction (MBD) represents the most common type of neuropsychic disorders in childhood. Resulting in focal damages, underdevelopment and dysfunction of one or another cortical regions of brain hemispheres, MBD manifested in children as movement and speech disorders, dysgraphy, dyslexia, dyscalculia and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
In the open controlled study, an efficacy of the complex nootropic medication "Instenon" was evaluated in the treatment of 59 MBD patients, aged 4-12 years.
Control group included 27 children with MBD assigned to low polyvitamin (Sana Sol) doses. The treatment duration was 1 month.
Before and after treatment, children with MBD underwent complex examination, which included parent's interviewing using structured questionnaire, general examination, with detailed analysis of complaints, neurological status investigation and psychological study.
In the children taken instenon, distinct positive effect has been achieved in 71% of the cases, in control group--in 15%.
Positive effect emerged in improvement of behavior characteristics, better school marks, movement, attention and memory indices, functions of psychic activity, organization, programming and control. When strictly keeping a scheme prescribed (gradual dose increase, drug taking in morning and day time), a risk for unfavorable side effects is minimal.
