What is the success rate for the SCD?

The DAN (Defeat Autism Now) clinics that are very supportive of SCD

report almost 100% success! This is an astonishingly high rate of

success. Dr Sidney Baker who was one of the founders of the DAN

movement wrote the following about SCD: " No other among the dozens of

biomedical therapies I have suggested or witnessed has met with such

consistent success. None out of more than two dozen patients, have

elected to abandon the treatment for good. " [1] Pam Ferro is a nurse

who runs a DAN clinic for autism in Massachusetts. Pam reports she too

is having a nearly 100% success rate among the young patients she

monitors on SCD. The doctors and nurses who run similar clinics give a

lot of knowledgeable SCD counseling to the parents and stress strict

compliance. The degree of success is lower in the clinics where

doctors have not yet learned a lot about SCD or advocate some

protocols that oppose those of SCD.

Although at first, it is easy to make mistakes with SCD, it is also

easy to make corrections. Parents who attempt to do SCD without help

or do not read the book and use the websites carefully tend to make

errors. Subscribing to the free Pecanbread list for prompt guidance

plays an important role in succeeding. This latest new edition of the

Pecanbread website has been carefully formulated to help parents avoid

the most common errors made on SCD. No parent should give up on SCD

without seeking the help of an SCD counselor. Ideally, parents having

difficulties should get help from an SCD counselor once a month.

I need some guidance on a possible folate source. We have been using Kirkman's

folinic acid for about nine months now, and iel is still testing deficient

in folic acid. He's been taking 2400mgs. per day which is a lot for his age and

weight. Our DAN dietician wants us to switch to something else, but the only

thing she could suggest might be a better shot at raising those levels is

Actifolate. Apparently, it has three different forms of folate in it, and she

is thinking that the three forms might do better at getting into his system.

He's also deficient in all of the B vitamins...even B12 which we've been using

the injections with him for nine months now. We're increasing the B12

injections to every other day to see if that fixes that, and also starting a B

complex in transdermal form. So, I don't need to be concerned about legal forms

of the Bs. I just need to figure out what we can try for folic acid sources of

supps. Any suggestions?

Anya's grandma,

There are regressions every 3 months during the first year.

Do not get discouraged and keep up the good work.

I think that the success rate for IBD is about 75% for folks on the

IBD lists. I would asume that the success rate should be higher if

people get counseling or read the pecanbread website very carefully.

Several years ago, Wall Street journal had an article about SCD. The

article quoted Dr Ditchek's remark that when Turet gave private

counseling to his patients, the success rate was almost 100%..

Can anyone volunteer to run a survey to help us figure out the success rate?
