Re: Vitamins in DAN Protocol

[Guest guest]

I would be concerned if its a one size fits all protocol. Have you done

testing

to determine exactly what your child needs?

A lot of these kids do not need high doses of vits and minerals but need

to take lots of things, in small doses.

Who are you seeing? And have you check in to Amy Yasko's DNA testing

to pinpoint what your child needs?

We are doing the vitamin protocol but I have

learned that you need to follow your own instinct.

We had to lower the dose on the vitamins because too

high of a dose was making sick and really

upset. He was losing weight since he was sick to his stomach

and he couldn't really afford to lose weight.

I changed the dose on my own and our doctor agreed

the next time we went for a visit.

Good Luck,

We live down in the Valley right now, and there isn't a big selection of

doctors who know anything about autism, especially DAN doctors. We are

moving to Dallas this summer -- who is Amy Yasko, and where is she located?

Thanks for the suggestion -- we did have him tested for allergies and some

heavy metals, but there wasn't anything out of norm. We appreciate the

help.
