Re: High levels of Bufotenin? anyone? Read this.....

[Guest guest]

I dont know anything about this chemical allegedly produced by kids with ASD but

I do know my kid seems high half the time. And he zones out on music big time,

or else he gets very emotional with music.

Loves art, draws, all the artsy, colour, texture stuff going on.

Dont want to fall into trap of 1. not knowing what the research here is, and 2,

seeing what I want to believe, but worth further investigation if its all part

of the tryptophan, serotonin connections.
