Guest guest Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Hey guys! Carol is right. Tylenol is not recommended for ASD kids. It depletes the body's store of glutithione which is necessary for detoxing purposes. Although, I do not know what the difference is between compounded and not-compounded, I am pretty sure Tylenol should still be avoided for ASDs. Jeni Lynn (gastrointestinal problems) SCD 2 months mom to Margeaux, 6 yr. (add, heavy metal toxicity, gastrointestinal problems) , 3 yr. (risk for add, heavy metal toxicity, gastrointestinal problems) Elle, 18 mo. (was at risk for autism, heavy metal toxicity, leaky gut, eczema) SCD 4 months I take compounded Tylenol with the hot drink but I think that is not advised for ASD children.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 I appreciate the information about Tylenol, but can someone recommend something I can give him?
