But I have read several things saying it is not OK. Please share whatever you find out with us. >> CLayton's LDL - the apparently bad cholesterol is low - more than 40 points below normal and this is not good - especially since my family has a genetic predisposition to HIGH Cholesterol. Dr, Kelley said that ldl helps control the hormones and also is associated with austic like/pdd behaviors that he sees in a syndrome called -Lemi opitz - nwhich CLaYTON does not have but his cholesterol levels are as low as those kids and he finds that giving htem cholesterol helps to curb or even get rid of these behaviors. So once CLayton has adjusted to the mito cocktail they will start him on supplemetnal cholesterol. Love, Sharon mommy to Jake (6)(ADHD - awaiting glasses) and fraternal twins (3/30/97) - Cole -(nda and cute as a button) and Clayton (mitochondrial disorder, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, food allergies (milk, soy, eggs, wheat), g-tube, Nissen, latex allergy, DD, sensory integration disorder, tremors, etc.........)
