Is there anything I can do to

help her natural detox pathways work better and give her body the best

now she's getting selenomethionine, milk thistle, folate, methyl B12,

and epsom salt baths (all to try to help with the food chemical

sensitivities).

-----------Maybe digestive enzymes would help with her food intolerances,

might be worth a try. I think you could get some real good advice about this

from people at A-M. I think somebody over there created a site called

enzymestuff.com, if I remember right. And you may want to read/study the stuff

about Liver Phase 1 and Phase 2, to see if anything there makes sense in her

case.----------Jackie

TK--- do food allergin testing and ALCAT testing and make sure she is

not eating food that is an allergin or that she is sensitized to.

TK--- a DDI Hair ELements analysis [links section] is not invasive and

can show a lot that can be helpful including the posibility of Hg,lead

etc. toxicity.

I know it's not invasive, DH is just extremely skeptical of natural

healing of any sort and says that DD is perfectly fine and doesn't

need any tests done.

Any specific supplements that you would recommend?

I'm a bit reluctant to join any of the autism groups--I don't know if

they'd be willing to help since she is neurotypical. ALA would be

different because of the dosing schedule.

----------I suggested Autism-Mercury because most of them follow Cutler's

protocol, and would be familiar with dosing and issues for children. I haven't

had time to read over there for a long time, but when I did, there were lots of

wonderful, knowledgeable people over there, willing to help anybody, and not all

of the kids have autism. So I'm sure they would still help you. And they may

have more information in their groups links and files sections that would

pertain more to your daughter. And, Andy himself usually shows up more on that

board than our adult groups. There are probably a few members of this group

that are members of A-M also, like I know is, because of her

granddaughter. And I know some of us adults have joined there group, and read

when we can, because Andy posts over there more often. So I still encourage you

to join.-------Jackie

different because of the dosing schedule.

-----------I assumed this would probably be your answer, but thought it might

be worth a try! I just think that if he is allowing some supplementing, maybe

he'll come around at some point, hopefully, and maybe wouldn't be as scared of

ALA, since it is a natural supplement, it just happens to be a chelator

also.----------Jackie

----------I know this must be very hard, not having your husband's support on

this. So I think you would also get support from others in your situation on

the A-M group also, and maybe they could give you some ideas.--------Jackie
