RE: HELP for my 2 year old! Andy, TK, others?

[Guest guest]

I would also recommend eliminating gluten, wheat, yeast (breads,

pastas[brown rice is fine]) for 2 weeks to see what changes. When I

eliminated those, it was a much bigger change for the positive for me than

just eliminating dairy. Dairy reactions were actually yes. I still rarely

eat dairy, but cannot live without my ice cream one in awhile.

In my opinion, yes, some form of toxicity can cause the food intolerances.

Not just vaccines but other toxins in our environment and mercury is common

in anything from medical supplies, over the counter things (eye drops) as

well as certain lights.

At my worst, I was allergic to just about everything and only had about 5

different foods in my diet for a year. Detoxing has helped tremendously. My

problems started from vaccinations as a child but getting 9 huge mercury

fillings certainly didn't help matters.

The other thing I mention al the time, a good probiotic solution to heal his

gut. Garden of Life Ultra Primal Defense is what I like best.

It also seems that he might have a milk allergy or multiple food

intolerances. We are going to eliminate dairy for 14 days as a first

step.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it very possible that a heavy

metal toxicity might be at the root of all this?

Also, before discussing with TK, we thought our brita water filter was

If it were me I'd start chelating right away with small doses of DMSA; the

risk of waiting -- to my mind -- far outweighs the risk of starting now.

The earlier you start chelating, the better the results. You can find lots

of help on the AUTISM-MERCURY list; lots of parents with lots of experience

chelating small kids. DMSA works great with both lead and mercury and seems

to be quite safe used per Andy's protocol. Go easy on it -- the most common

mistake is to go to bigger doses too fast. I've found that large doses are

counterproductive and unnecessary. I weigh 180 lbs. and have made fantastic

progress taking just 12.5 mg DMSA every 3 hours, 3 days on and 4 days off.

I'm not doing ALA yet but you probably should; again, you can get informed

opinions on when to do so on AUTISM-MERCURY.

HELP for my 2 year old! Andy, TK,

others?

My son is 2 1/2 years old. He seems to be behind in speech and social

skills, and we have therapists helping.

It also seems that he might have a milk allergy or multiple food

intolerances. We are going to eliminate dairy for 14 days as a first

step.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it very possible that a heavy

metal toxicity might be at the root of all this?

He has had most of his shots, except the MMR, which I made them

postpone, so far, but I know some of the shots had thimerosal in them.

Unfortunately, we didn't know what we know now about mercury.

Also, before discussing with TK, we thought our brita water filter was

good enough for removing lead from our water. A lead test of our

water showed slightly elevated levels, though running it for 5 mins

brought them down to acceptable. We since replaced our plumbing and

used lead-free solder, of course.

Blood test of my son showed no lead problem, but we know how

misleading they can be. So, now my son may have a potential lead

and/or mercury issue, and I don't know what to do about it.

Can anyone offer any advice here? I want to be really really cautious

on this one, and I already know better than to get him a challenge

test. Does the protocol apply for kids? Any good docs in the New

Jersey area who will work with me?

Seeing as I would rather drink poison than cause any harm to my son, I

don't want to do anything stupid, yet I want to address the problem if

there is one.

Thanks,
