The Truth About Autism, is Chelation False Hope?

by

Personally, I think we have a good thing going here. Since beginning his Chelation Therapy four months ago, AJ has changed. He is more verbal, less agitated, transitions easier, can now stand to go to the bathroom (and make it into the water almost all of the time), is hitting less frequently, and is much more affectionate.

He went through his stages…more crashing, yeast die-off, monster tantrums and screaming rages all day, and nights that he did not sleep because his body was going through something strange.

Dr. Rahul K. Parikh, a pediatrician and a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, wrote in his article, The Truth about Autism, that when one of his patients came in two years ago requesting biomedical testing (similar to Little Pickel’s recent testing) that he did had to admit his mainstream medicine had little to offer them.

Then I respected his mother’s wishes and ordered those lab tests that I knew her insurance plan would cover (she chose an outside lab for the others). All of these tests turned out to be normal. The additional tests, which Andy’s family paid for, showed a question of some minor nutritional deficiencies. For this, Andy’s doctor placed him on about a dozen nutritional supplements, some of which cost up to $80 for a one-month supply.

On the recent Oprah show, Jenny McCarthy says that Chelation and biomedical “cures” are just what her son needed to recover from Autism. And, they are just what AJ needs. Right now I am undecided on whether or not I am going to vaccinate him again. I don’t give him the flu shot because its not necessary but does he need the rest? If I chose to not vaccinate I have to find a new pediatrician because she won’t see him unless he is vaccinated. Talk about Old School…

What do you all think?
