Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 Sounds like you have done it all! Care to comment further on any of your experiences? We are doing Andy's ALA only protocol for a child who is 10 and "almost there". We live in a rural area and have to do it on our own, no DAN docs here. Answer offlist if you want to. I think ALA is a good way, but may take some time. Since your child is "almost there" the ALA may be a good one to stick to. is also "almost there" and I couldn't really tell you any one way of chelation that did it. I think it was more of the combination of things. He is GFCF (4 years) and was SCD for a time. I give him as many organic foods as I can and stay away from anything artificial. I also have a fragrance free household and don't use chemicals around the house. I still give him the homeopathic drops to help his body detox the everyday stuff in addition to chelating. You may want to look into the Longevity Plus Calcium EDTA. They have an oral form and also a bath form. I use the bath form for both of my kids along with the Epsom Salts. The website is www.longevityplus.net. I don't think Andy is too fond of the EDTA, but it has been working for us and a lot of other people that I know. Again, another thing to do your own homework about! I can tell you this, even when I was living around many good doctors to choose from (AZ), I still found myself just taking some of what each of them said and came to my own conclusions.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Thanks for the info. Slow is okay because I don't want to risk any of the progress we have made so far. I'll look into the EDTA. I thought it was by prescription only. Do you use it as they recommend? From: rominick@...

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 However, from what I understand oral EDTA isn't as effective as other means. Just make sure it is "calcium" EDTA. Other forms are not as effective. JaneMama to ASD (7) and NT (4) - Maybe NT, but big time gut and sensory issues, although making a lot of improvement!

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 , There are over the counter products that contain EDTA. The one at www.extremehealthusa.com contains some EDTA. However, from what I understand oral EDTA isn't as effective as other means. On www.extremehealthusa.com they actually have the studies showing their products are effective.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Darla, I think I had heard that people do EDTA IV's so I guess that's why I assumed it was prescription. Thanks for the info. I'll look into it. Reply-To: autism-georgia Date: Thu, 12 Aug 2004 16:40:55 -0400 To: <autism-georgia > Subject: RE: Chelation-need protocal/ , There are over the counter products that contain EDTA.
