Do you know why? Is it true? I've been giving EPO to my son for the Omega 6 in it. Also, How do you handle B6 vitamin and epilepsy? The above diet mentions that it causes or may cause " jerking " at a dose above 50mg. My son tremors and jersks(controlled with meds). Any input is appreciated because I do give these vitamins to Julio. One more ?. Do any of you supplement with Coq10 or carnosine? Which brands? My regular neuro told me I can give CQ10 50 or 100mg 2x per day and Carnosine(prescription) 2x per day. Carnosine is EXpensive with insurance ($78). Has anyone heard about treating autism and jerks,seizures with a diet based on blood type? I'm full of questions today.

Thanks a million in advance Shirley .. .. >>> My son gets fish oil for the EPA and DHA to grease his brain, very helpful -- Omega 3. Most folks are deficient in omega-3s. My son gets b-100 + B6, 100 mg three times a day. Magnesium is it's cofactor and he gets about 800 mg of Mg in liquid form.

Is the B6 that you give included in the b100 or is it separate? Tremors and jerks gone? GREAT!! that's what I want. Thanks Shirley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Roxanne, Welcome to the group!!! There are many different causes of speech delay out there, but it is good that you are on the ball and are getting help now!!! Is your home bilingual? If so, it is perfectly natural for there to be a delay. If not, it could be anything from hearing difficulties to speech disorders to developmental delays to global learning deficits to being on the autism spectrum. Step by Step should be able to do an initial evaluation and point you in a good direction. If not, someone here or in your area will be able to help. In the mean time, join in, learn all you can, and love the dickens out of your son!!! ~hugs~ Rabecca Date: Sun, 14 Nov 2004 05:45:02 -0800 (PST) From: Roxanne <roxy1032@...> Subject: Re: preschool son with AS i am new to this my son is 30months old .he does not wave bye bye are clap his hands and he only says mom...can anyone tell me how they knew things were going wrong i am geting some help from step bye step..they going to come out in dec. but i feel like somthin its very wrong ..somone people say he grow out .he will talk he little lazy ..and one here this befor...just like some input about all of this ..thank u mommy to 30 months old ,Kaila 8months old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
