When this journey started, Dr. Deepak Chopra and Dr. David Simon and the rest of the doctors behind the formulation of NutriiVeda (NV) had thought that NutriiVeda would be a great way for busy parents and professionals to take better care of themselves and perhaps lose some unwanted pounds AND support the Cherab Foundation. That aspect of the fundraiser is still very real as many parents have shared stories of losing not only excess pounds -but that unwanted “muffin top” as well! What was unexpected is that NutriiVeda would have an apparent therapeutic effect on the special needs children of parents and professionals! Lisa Geng from the Cherab Foundation put her son Tanner on the NutriiVeda to lose a few pounds and was not expecting him to have surges in many areas as reported by her son’s school.

Below are a few of the anecdotal testimonies that have come in through the nonprofit group, the Cherab Foundation, about NutriiVeda…this isn’t all of them and you may wonder “where are the negative”? There appears to be little if any, at this point, which is both fascinating and exciting. The following clearly shows the therapeutic effect of NutriiVeda on conditions such as autism, apraxia, speech delays and impairments, Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), global delays and seizure disorders, and the importance of this being clinically researched and validated.
There are numerous anecdotal reports of regression in as soon as one day of the NutriiVeda dosage being stopped, remarkably as well, even when it is cut in half. The results seem to be dosage dependent. Most doctors recommend:
Children <3yrs = 1 scoop/day
Children 4-8yrs = 2 scoops/day
Children 9yrs– adult= 4 scoops/day divided into 2 doses
Each scoop is mixed with 4 oz of either water, milk, or milk alternative.
**NV is water soluble.
Please check with your or your child’s doctor BEFORE starting any supplement. HMS is only providing information about NV not recommending it.

Parental Anecdotal Reports
Tanner’s Discovery
I had to cut Tanner’s NutriiVeda back substantially in fear of running out prior to getting more in. He was upset as well saying to me “Mommy why did you have to tell everyone about it?!” He thought it was because of me that this huge company had a backorder! But something interesting happened; about 4 days into the greatly reduced dosage Tanner’s speech regressed back. I asked him what was going on with his speech and he stuttered “I don’t know I’m just all bumpy again.” The only thing I could think of was the NutriiVeda. The next day I gave him once again a full dosage and sure enough his speech was better. In addition to weight loss and speech improvements in the weeks that followed we’ve noticed the following side benefits which are all out of character for Tanner prior: waking up each morning prior to his alarm, greater interest in reading and sharing the books he is reading (in detail), reading a chapter book in two days, sudden ability to independently blink one eye at a time, being regular daily. I spoke with the head of Tanner’s school who confirmed that at school they too are noticing a changed student all of a sudden. I’m told about how he is walking the halls with his head in a book reading. That after lunch prior to NutriiVeda Tanner would seem “wiped out” and that now he’s “alert” with “improved speech” and “participating more in class”.

J’s 3 weeks on NutriiVeda
3 weeks tomorrow on NutriiVeda. 2 scoops (1 scoop twice a day) Drinks in 8 oz of milk.
Changing pitch of talk If he asks something, he will ask in a normal tone of voice, if we say no, he will ‘growl’ talk (for lack of a better word) then he’ll talk in a high pitch for the next sentence. This is again something that he has never done. He isn’t monotone, just doesn’t do this kind of ‘silly-type’ talk.
He discovered static electricity today and was wildly amused. I got zapped quite a few times on my neck after he figured out that rubbing his slippers on the carpet made this zap, of course he was giggling and laughing about it.
Eye contact is GREAT!
Pointing to items and trying to say every word adding the right amount of syllables has increased since last week. Usually he would point or say something, but he is doing them together. something completely new.
His fine motor skills have kept improving. His handwriting which has taken him in the past about a half an hour to complete, now takes 5 minutes and he brings it to me and smiles and shows me what he’s done.
We went to the Pinewood Derby this past weekend and saw a person that always tries to talk to him, but he’d only say something if I said to, and he was trying to talk to her this time. I hadn’t told her about the NutriiVeda and she volunteered to me how much more social and responsive he is than the
last time she saw him (1 month ago-ish)
Even my husband, skeptic extraordinaire, said today (which is why I’m writing this today) Joe seems so much more ‘alert’ and responding much better than he has in the past. He added that it might be a coincidence. LOL. but he didn’t think so. Lisa, I knew you would appreciate that!”

One Month Update – NutriiVeda
What a Winter it has been!
We’ve been super buried with snow here in C., Ohio since February began.
I’m talking 25 inches of snow.
I’ve been reading all the emails from the group, but because of the snow (and now a major roof problem) I’ve been working a lot of hours, so I haven’t had much of a chance to respond.
Here’s how C. is doing….
He started NutriiVeda back in January, and has now been on it for one month.
We’ve increased his dosage from one scoop to almost 2 a day. I was able to do so because I’ve found so many ways to include it in his diet. We’re still mostly mixing it with milk, but I’ve also been making him a milkshake every day before he goes to his afternoon preschool class. It’s a typical chocolate milkshake with ice cream, milk, a small amount of chocolate syrup and one scoop of powder. He LOVES it and I must say, it tastes pretty darn good.
The gains. Oh the gains. I’m really happy with the amazing progress.
C.’s progress has been HUGE across the board.
His main SLP is not aware that we have been trying NutriiVeda. When I took C. to speech 2 weeks ago, she happily told me that she is seeing “fewer signs of classic apraxia.” She now says his issues more resemble a phonological processing disorder – which is apparently a lot less severe than apraxia. She has always described C. as having classic apraxia – since she first started treating him when he was barely 3-years-old. Of course, I love that C.’s articulation is improving, but the difference I’m most excited about is C.’s new word usage. The things that are popping out of his mouth without him even thinking about…
Tonight, for instance, C. and I were having a conversation about recycling. His Dad walked by and jokingly said “I think we should recycle all the little boys in this house.” And without missing a beat, C. replied “No Daddy. That would hurt! I can’t go in the garbage truck!”
That’s just one of dozens of examples of sentences that have flowed from his mouth without him thinking about it so much. He just seems to be thinking quicker on his feet.
Other areas of improvement have been fine motor, which was the area where we saw the fastest improvement once we started NutriiVeda.
C. has also grown! I’m not sure how that plays into all this…but I did have a Dad who follows DAN protocol for his child tell me that sometimes when things get straightened out metabolically, you’ll see a growth spurt. And C. has shot up about a half and inch.
All good things! We are so excited!
G., mom of C.
