Guest guest Posted July 28, 2001 Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 No, we're still dealing with the healing the gut issue that won't go away! When I spoke with a couple of DAN! doctors at the May conference and they looked at his organic acids test, they said the same thing. Donna in Kingwood, TX To everyone out there- thanks for talking to me about this. I'm here with the twins, hubby is out of town for a while with job, all family and friends are several states away and they don't understand all this stuff. It's so nice just to have people give you their input when you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious and alone with this miserable monster called autism.

Supplements not being absorbed is from the leaky gut (which can in turn be caused by the suppression of the needed digestive enzymes by mercury), but she mentioned being deficient in B6, B12, biotin, and magnesium, which are all suppressed by mercury. All-in-all, since heavy metals are well-documented causes of intercellular antioxidant depletion, whenever you have a test turn out like this, a knowledgable doctor should be able to see the signs. Sorry I didn't make sense before, but I figure if she was already chelating, she probably already knew all this anyway.
