Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Venizia, Did you see the news story yesterday about a breakthrough at MIT? They found a protein to block, that seems to reverse the fragile X type autism. It's not clear whether it will help Asperger's, but the protein has nothing to do with iodine. If you read the fine print on mineral deficiencies, Asperger's people are also deficient in potassium, lithium, and chromium. The recommended dose to correct the deficiency and as a preventative supplement during pregnancy is 100 mcg. Correcting a measurable deficiency is very different from massive overdosing.

It is one of the conditions that childhood inoculations were suspected of causing. The list was discussing that about a month ago.
