Re: early puberty - Calcium D-Glucarate

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I'm sure this was brought up before but just in case...your daughter

doesn't eat any soy products? Many packaged foods are filled with

corn and soy. Soy has been linked to early puberty, esp. among

girls who as babies were given soy formula.

Just wanted to say that at a workshop at AutismOne there was big argument

between a

neurologist and the Geiers, because the neuro thought the Geiers were being way

too

positive about their Lupron protocol and not speaking honestly about the risks.

It was quite

heated. One thing she mentioned that you might research is the relationship

between

testosterone and bone growth.
