Other Healthy Options
Depending on who you talk to you will hear vitamins &
minerals are helpful. To a degree yes I think they are.
However, proceed with cation and ALWAYS talk to your doctor
first! In many cases to much of a good thing can turn bad,
even toxic. Here are many of the things I have come across.
Talk to your doctor. Many Doctors are willing to guide you as
to the amount you should be giving to your child. There is also
a well known Doctor with a child who has Autism. He has done
some great things with our children when it comes to the
"natural" side.
Dr Jeff Bradstreet, M.D.~ Dr.Jerrold Kartzinel, M.D.

B6/Mag Vitamin B6 (must be given with magnesium) was
found to be helpful in almost half of all autistic children.
Calcium Apart from being a major constituent of bones and
teeth, calcium is crucial for nerve conduction, muscle
contraction, heartbeat, blood coagulation, and the production
of energy and maintenance of immune function.
Chelation, is the removal of heavy metals. A lot has been
said lately of the toxic burden our kids may have with high
levels of metals, most notably mercury. Check out
Colostrum Kirkman Labs produces a product called
Colostrum Gold which is a GFCF liquid. Colostrum has shown
to help significantly with intestinal permeability and irritable
bowel syndrome. This intestinal permeability or "leaky gut" is
primarily caused by bad bacteria, overuse of antibiotics,
yeasts ( and other toxins. Ask for their hypo-allergenic
formulas.)
DMG-Dimethylglycine The best suppliers of DMG provide it
in tablets of 125mg each, wrapped in foil that are pure DMG.
Determining right dosage really depends on trial and error
experimentation.
Folic Acid, itself has been reported to be helpful in autism . A
researcher reported that supplements of about 250 mcg of
folic acid per pound of body weight per day brought on major
improvement in several autistic children. Folic Acid is thought
to calm down hyperactivity from other supplements,
particularly DMG & TMG.
Lactobacillus Acidophilus to improve gut flora, known as
good bacteria. Kirkman Labs carries Acidophilus Plus. Primal
Defense and Flora Source are qualified supplements too.
Multi-Vitamins made specifically for ASD
Spectrum Support 1, 2 and 3 Spectrum Support 1, 2 or 3 were
specially formulated for the ASD population. See
www.brainchildnutritionals.com for ingredients, pricing and
dosing information. GFCF, NO egg, yeast, soy, corn, sugar,
color, artificial flavor or sweeteners.
Super Nu Thera , is available from Kirkman Labs. The
company sells the Super Nu Thera formula as a strawberry
flavored liquid and a flavored power and as unflavored
tablets. All three products contain, in addition to the B6 and
magnesium, 20 other nutrients designed to enhance the
effectiveness of the B6. Only one kind contains the
non-palmitate form of Vitamin A. Ask specifically.
