Re: OT: can't tolerate TMG, DMG, and now Cysteine

Hi Kim,

First, are you also giving your child Methyl B12? If so, stop and then

try the DMG or TMG again. They are all methylators but you should not

give them at the same time.

If you aren't using MB12, then I suggest you try that (with folinic

acid or folic acid) instead of the DMG/TMG. There are many ways to

boost methylation and these are just some of the options. Which one

works all depends on which pathway is broken in your child. The only

way to know that for sure is by genetic testing. Unfortunately, the

lab used by Dr. Amy Yasko seems to be the only one capable of

performing the necessary genetic tests. I have heard it takes a long

time to get results back from that lab and some have complained of the

lab's unreliability (not sure what that means, though).

If you want to study the methylation cycle, I believe you can find some

useful diagrams on the Yasko website, www.autismanswer.com. They look

very complicated but if you study them a while you will have a better

understanding of the whole thing. Good luck.
