Vitamin A Therapy
Persistent gut problems in Alex and an out of balance immune response to allergens led us to recently try Vitamin A Therapy, at the suggestion and supervision, of Alex's doctor. Because Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin we were very cautious to follow the protocol extremely carefully.
I saw no strange new behaviour during or directly after the therapy. His attention does seem slightly better but I am not 100% sure.
We will have testing again soon to see if his immune system markers have improved. This will tell us a lot.
***Note: Vitamin A Therapy has been found to be beneficial for only a very small subset of children in the autism community. Alex fit the mould almost identically. This is not a therapy I would recommend someone try without consulting a doctor which is why I did not go into details about the protocol
