Notes from Neubrander

Dr. Neubrander's focus was helping parents decide which biomedical treatments give you the most "bang for your buck". Here are the notes I took during the presentation:

Our children suffer from:
*oxidative stress
*toxins & heavy metals
*methylation & transulfuration issues

We need to improve:
*inflammation
*nutritional support
*immune function
*detoxification

ARI's parent reports show the strongest results from the following treatments:
1. chelation/detox
2. SCD
3. GFCF
4. Melatonin
5. B12
6. Allergy Dx
7. digestive enzymes
8. fatty acids
9. yeast diet
10. Feingold diet

The physician reports on the same site give a similar picture. They list the most effective treatments as:
1. MB12 (Dr. Neubrander says he gives it for 26-42 mos. in his practice and feels many don't give it long enough)
2. HBOT
3. IV Chelation
4. Healing the Gut
5. Diet supplements

The site in general- www.autism.com provides a wealth of information and you should spend time studying all it has to offer.
