Guest guest Posted January 15, 2002 Report Share Posted January 15, 2002 Oh mannnnnnn! That is sad to hear. However, I have heard to give gluten a good 3 weeks to clear out of the system. Does his regression seem like it has slowed down any? Please post on how the metals test come out. I would be very interested in finding out if he is really metal toxic of not. Take care, .

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Hi Beth, I have a 10 yr. old Aspie son who used to hand flap a lot, no more, I believe your son will grow out of it. What has helped my son is 1 tsp. of Carlson's cod liver with dinner daily and chelated magnesium, I use Magnesium Taurate from Cardiovascular REsearch, he takes (1) 100mg. in morning before school and one at night. See if that would help, regular magnesium doesnt even get absorbed, you need chelated (attached to an amino acid), good luck, Juli --- Beth Mouser <mouser4@...> wrote: > , > > Thanks for taking the time to share with me.

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Thanks Beth for the offer. I like your web site and especially liked that your grandma saved the letters from your mom, then passed them down. What a beautiful priceless thing to do. I can only imagine what it would be like to read about your childhood through the eyes of your mom in the letters. What a wonderful gift! Talk to you soon. love/peace, Ebony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
