Guest guest Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 My son is 14, not autistic, but shares many of the gut issues, and has high mercury we are hoping to chelate. With adolescence, I've noticed new phenonomena. His health issues (very tired, pale, food sensitivities, becomes timid and socially withdrawn, red under eyes, etc) fluctuate, sometimes better, sometimes worse, sometimes not noticeable, sometimes terrible. But now, on his bad days, his hair looks very very greasy, even immediately after it has been washed. And his skin looks notably worse, more blackheads, more acne, rough looking. On a good day (or even a different part of what started as a good day), his hair looks fine, fluffier, and his skin looks better. Does the greasy hair/poor skin symptom link to anything specific?

No dairy (except sheep dairy sometimes), no wheat, no (or very little) sugar. Betsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
