My son needed several things to eliminate echolalia. Anti-virals

[OLE, Virastop, vitamin C, lysine] and mB12/TMG/folic acid/carnitine.

Plus biotin and GSE to control the yeast.

Hi

your son sounds exactly like my son. We thought hypotonia at first

too. He was referred to occupational therapy 6 months before the

pediatrician said PDD.

The magnesium is important but it is the sulfate that makes the

biggest difference. If you google Dr Rosemary Waring you can find her

studies on sulfur. Basically a lot of asd kids are low in sulfate and

using a bath gets it into the bloodstream in the proper form so the

body doesn't have to convert it. Sulfate is good for the liver,

pancreas, hair and skin. We found that between reducing phenol foods

and increasing sulfates he improved drastically. I tried doing a cup

of epsom salts in the bath at first but he started having lots of pee

accidents. I had to go tablespoon by tablespoon and work up to a cup.

Good luck!
