I haven't tried it. But the problem with detoxifying is that the

toxins have to exit the body somehow, and that's where the problems

arise no matter what method is used to get them out. Andy's protocol,

that most of us do here, is designed to minimize those problems as

much as possible.

My son was dx with Asperger's too, and after a lot of chelating lost

his dx. He no longer has signs of autism but food pickiness is still a

problem.

Teach him to swallow pills. My son can now swallow so many at once he

could go into the circus.

You're on the right track. The best advice, when you're researching,

is to look for *negative reports at least as much as positive ones. It

seems like you can always find somebody who responded well to a

treatment, but what you need to know is, does it work for some but

mess others up, perhaps very badly?

Try going to the file section of this list and reading at Moria's

site, which has basic instructions, lots of old Andy posts, and plenty

of parent reports too (in Love Letters).

Good luck.

I've used the Ion cleanse with my son and it did help. We would bring

a DVD player with us so he could have something to do while he sat

there. There are some places that offer it but you need to make sure

they clean and change the plates between uses, we go to our Medicine

Shoppe for ours. I've also had them, the easiest way to relay the

results is - if you had to take 4 Ibuprofen normally, after an ion

cleanse you may get the same results with 1 Ibuprofen because it help

rid the body of build up. I have pictures - I think its gross but

facinating. E-mail me if you would like to see them
