Glutamine supplements

[Guest guest]

We have been giving our son (3 years old) BioCare MindLinx Glutamine with

Probiotic bacteria food supplement for about two weeks now along with other

supplements. We have noticed some improvements but the past few days, he has

become really sensitive to noise and light. He has become quite aggressive as

well and the nursery has reported increased cases of hair pulling (other kids')

as well.

We were wondering any of the supplements could have led to his behaviour and

while researching found out quite contrasting views about Glutamine

supplementation. However, the latest research seems to indicate that it is bad

for people with ASD.

According to Dr. Blaylock, people with autism and/ or ADHD should avoid

glutamine even for short term.

Holford, the nutritionist has also added that glutamine may be

contra-indicated with children with ASD,

I would love to hear the opinion of other people who have used Glutamine before.

Cheers,
