Guest guest Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 the thing to keep in mind about chromosomal abnormalities is that there is no direct relationship between them and speech issues--not a clear cut relationship---just a correlation. Just because DS is very often associated with speech issues and hypotonia and MR and many other things--does not in and of itself explain exactly the mechanisms by which these happen in these kids. Correlation is NOT causation--so often this is forgotten--even by medical professionals who should know better and seek better treatments for their most vulnerable patients. What is often found to be the case is that chromosomal abnormalities lead to faulty metabolic processing, enzyme production and impaired methylation, and detoxification pathways--which in turn lead to various neurological/endocrine and autoimmune disorders--just like in the rest of the individuals who may not have a known chromosomal abnormality--but chances are many do--and this is why environmental triggers affect them more than the rest of the population and they are more prone to develop various disorders--but just the fact that they have the chromosomal abnormalities does not fully explain these disorders. It is always an interaction with the environment and those with chromosomal abnormalities are less equipped to deal with the various environmental toxins--foods included--if certain digestive enzymes are missing. This is why biomedical interventions--diet/supplements can help these kids so much regardless of their chromosomal issues. It is a trial and error as in most kids--but there is a lot of hope--don't let the abnormality stop you from seeking to optimize neurological, metabolic and immune functioning in your child.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 Thank you so much Elena! I have ordered some NV and it should arrive in a week or so. Can't wait to try it and I am also going to have him tested for food allergies and mineral deficiencies very soon.
