Autism
| Some of the autistics kids benefit
greatly from the following interventions: |
| * |
Gluten-free / Casein-free diet |
| * |
Vitamin and mineral supplements (especially zinc,
B6, magnesium) |
| * |
Probiotics, eg acidophilus, to restore healthy
gut flora |
| * |
Anti-fungal medicine to attack yeast overgrowth |
| * |
Essential fatty acids (eg: evening primrose oil,
cod liver oil and other fish oil to improve brain
function) |
| * |
Chelation or alternatives to remove heavy metals
from the body |
Child’s need for these can be verified by hair tests
(for mineral levels and metal toxicity), stool tests
(for yeast infections) and blood tests (for food allergies
and general deficiencies).
Some parents have also used Specific Carbohydrate Diet
with success to improve their child’s gut issues:
