She's got a lot of great information on her site.

 

I'll add another resource. :001_smile: My favorite online summary of supplements/biomedical treatments is this report: http://autismconferencesofamerica.com/files/summarybiomedicaltreatments_final040607.pdf

 

It does a great job clearly laying out the beneficial supplements and treatments, and I like that it combines the parent effectiveness ratings (from the Autism Research Institute) as well as links to supporting research for the various treatments.

This article seems to be focused on replacing the vitamins & minerals lost when eliminating dairy from the child's diet. While that's certainly important, I would argue that in terms of helping with symptoms of autism, they aren't the most crucial ones to give. I would say more important are omega 3's, DMG or TMG, zinc if that's low, and the B-vitamins, especially the bioactive forms like methyl B12, P5P, folinic acid, TTFD or benfotiamine, etc. Antioxidants like Coenzyme Q10, n-acetyl-cysteine, selenium, etc. are also often very beneficial.
