Guest guest Posted August 2, 2002 Report Share Posted August 2, 2002 , I wouldn't be concerned at all. If you look at the site it clearly says that this is an opinion. There are references listed but absolutely nothing that has anything to do with the excess iron theory. It also says that iron is the cause of autism and is responsible for over 200 autoimmune disorders. As far as I can tell this was written by a parent. They also say that food particles leak from the gut and these proteins enter the brain, LOL. cheryl >From: kthomason9@... >Reply- >nids >Subject: Fwd: Iron concern >Date: Fri, 02 Aug 2002 16:24:17 -0400 > >I know many of us who see Dr. G are giving our kids iron.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2002 Report Share Posted August 3, 2002 I had heard the parent who came up with this theory on another site. I didn't hear anything convincing to back up his thoughts. I remain skeptical, but you can always put the question forth in the " ask Dr.G " , and decide for yourself. Fwd: Iron concern > I know many of us who see Dr. G are giving our kids iron.
