Barley Formula ADDIONAL DATA SUPPLEMENTS

[The Oracle]

FOR YEARSI have been asserting that there was additional data put out on the Barley formula regarding supplements.

I didn't have the data and the response was always that I was wrong.

Please pass this on to every forum as this is very important for people using this formula to prevent teeth decay, iron definiencies (my kids had both problems as a result of not having this) and other defiencies.

LRH Barley Formula Additional Data
FLAG INFORMATION LETTER 355
21 April 1980

The original formula was supplemented with freshly squeezed orange juice and cod liver oil. It has been found that this data was not known and people using the formula were not doing this.

A supplement has been verified as needed, as an analysis of the formula shows that it is lower than the Recommended Daily Allowance for infants in vitamins A, C, and iron.

Therefore, infants on the barley formula should be given 4 to 8 ounces of freshly squeezed orange juice ( or a Vitamin C supplement should any baby have an allergic reaction to orange juice) and one half teaspoon of cod liver oil per day. Per Adelle Davis in her book "Let's Have Healthy Children" (pages 66-69, 176-177), brewers yeast (Tortula)* and eggs can be used to obtain the needed iron. She also noted that iron salts recommended by some pediatricians destroy vitamin E, can cause anemia and if taken in large doses can be fatal. Therefore, these should probably be avoided. She also notes that newborns can store iron up to six months, so the need for an iron supplement should be verified as needed. This can be done by a simple test at the pediatrician's. For further information, "Let's Have Healthy Children" is a signet book, published by New American Library, Inc., 1301 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York, 10019.

Per LRH Founder advices nothing should be added to the formula itself. So the supplement should be given to babies seperately, not as part of a formula bottle. This can be done in a juice bottle once a day, or by supplying a vitamin supplement available for infants. Liason on dosages should occur with the child's pediatrician.

*In Flag Order 3593, 1 August 1975, Mary Sue writes "...a vitamin B complex deficiency (can be) remedied by taking a natural food high in B complex - primary (not torula) brewers' yeast....."
