Yes, it's one of many supplements! Dietary intervention is our most important intervention (gluten, casein, soy, coconut, nut, egg free). Lately, we have been allowing some cheese and so far so good with that. Enzymes have been very helpful as well. We do know for certain that gluten is VERY BAD for my son..... We also avoid MSG and artificial colors/flavors.

We do ASD Plex multi-vitamin everyday along with fish oils. B12 shots every 3 days and glutathione cream every night. My son tested very high for environmental toxins so we're also chemical free and his levels have decreased significantly. We've been doing Enhansa for just over a month and have seen great things with that.

We now live in a state that offers great therapies so I feel that the bio-medical really leaverages the therapies that Medicaid offers. My son has made great gains in just a few short months; his therapists 'complain' that they are constantly having to update his discreet trials because he's just flying through the plans that they establish (too bad for them, right?) I asked today at school if they've noticed a decrease in scripting and they said yes. One of the other students in my son's class actually said "Spencer has been so quiet today it's like he's not even here". I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that the inositol/choline will keep working its magic in regards to the scripting. Good luck to you on your journey! It can be a difficult road yet very rewarding and empowering!

Well, they work together, so I don't think there would be a problem unless the child cannot tolerate synthetic B vitamins at all. In this case, Dailyfoods makes a good food-based B complex. We had to start with that one because my son wouldn't tolerate the synthetics. We never had problems with the inositol/choline, but I only give it in small amounts until the symptoms are gone. Last time I gave him about 200mg and the OCD/stimming left. If you look at the foods containing inositol, it makes sense why our kids need more at times, many restricted diets eliminate the foods containing it.>> > > > IMO I would look for one that was straight inositol.
