You might want to consider joining this group for you questions and

problems:

This is a group for discussing and reporting treatment results with

LDN (low dose naltrexone) in autism spectrum disorder. This is a new

treatment and the goal is to get as much information as possible to

help parents decide if this is an appropriate and safe treatment for

their autistic child.

Cate...

In addition to LDN....http://iodine4health.com. Iodine -- mainly

lugol's or iodoral for your son's sluggish thyroid and a natural

chelator of mercury, and fluoride. Although Magnascent or detoxified

iodine might be gentler for him. http://www.magnascent.com/

http://www.iodinesource.com/ But ultimately, to reach total body

saturation, he'll need potassium iodide as well as iodine, which is in

lugols and iodoral. It's also being studied as a treatment for the

autistic.

Buiste, the owner of iodine4health.com has a group --

iodine, you should join. would also be a good source of

advice for supporting his mitochondrial function. CoQ10 comes to

mind. Also the amino acid ornithine cycles ammonia into urea.

http://www..ch/en/products_devices/vitamins/aminoacids.php. I'm

not sure what would help the sulfur.

Do you know what stage of adrenal fatigue he is in? There are saliva

cortisol tests that you can order (24 hr is best). If he's low

cortisol, isocort or adrenal glandulars might be helpful. If he's

high cortisol, then holy basil or phosphydital serine would be helpful

in lowering it. http://stopthethyroidmadness.com is a good resource

for thyroid and adrenal info. If he's truly hypothyroid, and if

iodine, selenium and tyrosine aren't enough, then armour would be

helpful.

I assume that he's already on a gluten and msg free diet. There's

also a diet for celiacs called the specific carbohydrate diet,

http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/ that might be helpful too.
