Susan,
if this child has heavy menstrual cycles, then I highly recommend calcium d-glucurate. This is summary (actually an abstract from a pubmed publication):
Calcium-D-glucarate is the calcium salt of D-glucaric acid, a substance produced naturally in small amounts by mammals, including humans. Glucaric acid is also found in many fruits and vegetables with the highest concentrations to be found in oranges, apples, grapefruit, and cruciferous vegetables. Oral supplementation of calcium-D-glucarate has been shown to inhibit beta-glucuronidase, an enzyme produced by colonic microflora and involved in Phase II liver detoxification. Elevated beta-glucuronidase activity is associated with an increased risk for various cancers, particularly hormone-dependent cancers such as breast, prostate, and colon cancers. Other potential clinical applications of oral calcium-D-glucarate include regulation of estrogen metabolism and as a lipid-lowering agent.

She might have dysbiosis, increases beta-glucuronidase activity. Beta-glucuronidase disrupts estrogen detoxification, leading to higher estrogen levels and heavy menstrual cycles. It is my personal experience that calcium-d-glucurate reduces heavy bleeding, reduces constipation, and improves acne-prone skin.
I’ve tested a few brands, and I believe the most effective is Natrol, which also happens to be the cheapest at iherb.com.
Good luck!

I have years of chronic cough and reflux. Chriss Kresser has provided an outstanding analysis and posible help. But previously I have been following work by Jamie Koufman, MD.
The works are well documented with extensive references and patient outcomes in these two books.

Most WIFI modems have a power level adjustment in the setup, many people do not know this. I have mine adjusted all the way down and I still get good device throughout my home.
I also have a timer on my WIFI modem that shuts it down after bed time and turns back on in the morning. Why would you want to sleep with the modem transmitting all night. the most important time to be free of EMF is while one sleeps. Keep all devices far away from your bed.

Blue tube is definitely the way to go, even better then wired headsets. Contrary to some info on the net wired headsets which I have measured are very safe and the wires do not conduct the EMF to your head as some have indicated. Blue tube using non conductive tubes are a real safe bet.

Most cordless phones do not radiate at all until the talk button is pushed, I have measured this to be true. Cordless phones radiate even higher levels then cell phones so using a cordless phone in the speaker mode is the best thing to do. A cordless phone 1.5 feet from you is a safe EMF level. Using it at your head is not advisable. See my You Tube video posted on this conversation.

The best thing you can do that actually works is to keep at least a 2 foot distance from you to the phone whenever making or receiving a call. The most effective way is a wired headset or hands free. I only use my phone hands free 100% of the time.

My background is in EMF, I truly believe that this diode thing is nothing but Snake Oil.
Beware there are allot of predators out there proclaiming solutions like this.
