Autism

I have a Children’s Nutrition Story! I have an autistic granddaughter who just turned 7 years old. She, until recently, was not very responsive or verbal. She would answer in one or two words to a question. She would choose not to look a person in the eye most of the time, and would not follow most requests, seeming to ignore any request.

After a couple weeks on the S****** M***** S***** (1 a day), I*********** (2), M*** S***** (1 AM serving), and O***F**** Capsule (1) per day, along with a diet where her sugar was greatly decreased, something phenomenal happened. One day while I was babysitting her, Abi was coloring (scribbling) on a picture from a coloring book, and looked at the crayons before her, wanting to choose another color. I picked up the green crayon, showed it to her, and said, “Why don’t you use the green crayon.” She put her crayon down, looked right at me, and said, “I like the purple crayon better,” picked up the purple crayon, and continued to color. My mouth dropped open in amazement. Then I noticed that when I asked her to take her lunch plate into the kitchen and put it on the counter near the sink, she followed directions and did exactly what I asked. She dropped nothing, and didn’t crash it into the sink as I expected. She had less “fits” and they were less severe. Then I noticed throughout the rest of the afternoon that she was speaking in full sentences and looking right at me when she spoke. WOW! I asked her mother if she noticed any changes. She said, “Oh, yes, and so has her teacher.” Then E*-G*** was introduced as well, because we heard Autistic children are deficient in digestive enzymes. She did very well with this program.

However, later the mother put her back on a sugary and starchy diet, took away the I***********, M***** S*****, and O***F****. She is still a little improved, especially her sentence structure and willingness to make eye contact. But she is not doing as well since her supplements have been reduced and her diet has declined in quality.

I know S****** and diet change together can make a real difference for Autistic children. Just try it! And be patient. I’d be glad to talk with anyone who has an Autistic child and has any questions.

Autism

It is early days yet, but a 6-year-old girl that my granddaughter cares for has had promising results using M***** S****.

She is a twin, and their mother was an alcoholic. They both have some learning disabilities, the girl in particular. She seems to show signs of Asperger's (a form of autism), but that hasn't been tested yet.

Every day, her teacher fills out a sheet giving her either a smiley face or a frowny face for various skills and/or behaviors during the day. These include how she completes a task, or how much help she needs when introduced to a new task.

A few months ago, I gave her a bag of M***** S**** chews. Cassandra, my granddaughter, reported that she was getting more "smiley faces" on her daily papers. However, they did not order more.

About 3 weeks ago, Cassandra was over and we were discussing the girl again, and decided to order 5 months' worth of the M***** S**** for the girl and the I*********** for the boy (so he wouldn't feel left out). At first, I wanted her to give both to the girl, but felt that just using M***** S**** would be a good way to see if they are helping her in any way.

After 2 weeks of using M***** S****, Cassandra reports that, not ony is she getting more "smiley faces" on a daily basis, but her teacher actually praised her. Apparently, the class had been introduced to a new "station" on the computer, and the girl was able to do as instructed, without needing additional instruction - unusual for her.

Cassandra also told me that usually, when told to clean her room, she never completes the task, and is easily distracted (not unusual for a 6-year-old). A few days ago, she was told to clean her room, and she completed it without prompting.

Also, Cassandra was reading a book to the twins and usually, the boy can get the words and repeat them, but not the girl. This time, the girl was able to repeat the words and actually read them from the book without prompting. Something she has not been able to do before.

As she gets a sheet on a daily basis, we will be able to continue to track her progress. For now, we feel that M***** S***** are helping her in her daily life.
