1. P5P

Pyridoxal 5' phosphate (P5P) is an active metabolite and predominant circulating form of pyridoxine (vitamin B6 ). P5P is a cofactor for more than 100 enzymes. It is involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters and works with folate and vitamin B12 in the metabolism of homocysteine and the formation of red blood cells.1 It is also required for enzymes that metabolize carbohydrates, fats,and proteins. If a person has certain genetic deletions such as MTHFR deletion they may not be able to change the synthetic form of pyroxidine (Vitamin B6) to the active form. P5p is the active form of vitamin B6

2. DMG

In 1965, two Russian physicians , M.G. Blumena and T.L. Belakova, published a report showing improvement in the speech in developmentally  delayed children when given dimethyglycine(DMG). In Russia it is considered a nootropic drug and used extensively with children who have developmental delay especially inability to talk. It appears that DMG like it’s closely related cousin TMG acts as a key intermediary in the biological pathway  that supplies the body with methyl groups; it is a methyl donator.

3. Super Nuthera with P5P.

Bernard Rimland PhD, founder of the Autism Society of America and the Autism Research Institute, pioneered the use of B vitamins in the 1960s for his own son, who was affected by autism.

The original Super Nu-Thera was formulated by Kirkman at the urgent request of Dr. Bernard Rimland, who wanted a nutritional supplement with high vitamin B6 and magnesium content that tasted good so children would take the product. This form includes the Active form of B6.

4. 5MTHF    

Methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) is the most biologically active form of the B-vitamin folic acid, also known generically as folate. 5-MTHF functions, in concert with vitamin B12, as a methyl-group donor involved in the conversion of the amino acid homocysteine to methionine. Methyl (CH3) group donation is vital to many bodily processes, including serotonin, melatonin, and DNA synthesis. Therapeutically, 5-MTHF is instrumental in reducing homocysteine levels, preventing neural tube defects, and improving vascular endothelial function. Research on folate supplementation suggests it plays a key role in preventing cervical dysplasia and protecting against neoplasia in ulcerative colitis. Folate also shows promise as part of a nutritional protocol to treat vitiligo, and may reduce inflammation of the gingiva. Furthermore, certain neurological, cognitive, and psychiatric presentations may be secondary to B\folate deficiency. Such presentations include depression, peripheral neuropathy, myelopathy, restless legs syndrome, insomnia, dementia, forgetfulness, irritability, endogenous depression, organic psychosis, and schizophrenia-like syndromes. 5-MTHF supplementation may be a more favorable method of folate repletion. A small amount of children may have muscle pain or irritability with the supplement and in this case Folinic Acid may be more appropriate.

5. Zinc Sulfate Cream

Zinc is present in every cell in the body, is a component of over 200 enzymes, and is involved in more enzymatic reactions than any other mineral constituent in mammals. Zinc is essential for normal skin, vision, smell, taste, reproduction, brain development, protein synthesis and wound healing. It is also one of the most important factors in a healthy immune system. Zinc is involved in just about every aspect of immunity, including the immune enhancing “T” cells,that are necessary for immune response.

Zinc levels in the body may be lowered for many reasons

6. GABA.

A study published in the Archives of General Psychiatry found that “reduced GABA concentration in ADHD in concordant with recently reported deficits in short intracortical inhibition in ADHD and suggests a GABAergic deficit in ADHD.” (Edden, Crocetti, Zhu, Gilbert, & Mostofsky, 2012) Despite the relationship between low GABA concentration and ADHD diagnoses, the efficacy of GABA supplements has not been widely studied. However, GABA supplements have amassed quite the reputation for being a holistic component of treating ADHD. One study at the Kyorin University Medical School in Japan conducted a study that indicated GABA potentially helps students with ADHD.

7. Biofilm Defense

Biofilms are an emerging area of treatment for autistic childrenand indeed for many other types of illness

The biofilm helps the bacteria survive in the gut and protects them from the body’s immune system. Bacteria in the biofilm evade the immune system by not displaying the protein that says “I am a foreign invader” and without this the immune system doesn’t even see the threat to your child’s health.

  • Biofilm Defense contains a combination of unique enzymes exclusively formulated by Kirkman scientists that can dissolve the sugar and fibrin components of biofilms.* 
  • SUPPORTS MICROBIOME BALANCE: Biofilm is a slimy substance that protects unhealthy microorganisms from the immune system and allows them to thrive, thus hindering the immune system from functioning optimally. 
  • SAFE FOR DAILY USE: Formulated for adults and children 4 years or older. Take one capsule daily or as directed by a physician.*

8. Folinic Acid

Folinic acid is most appropriate for those who have side effects  with MTHF such as increased irritability or muscle aches.

Dr Frye, a fellow Arizona pediatric neurologist, found improvement in verbal communication in children with autism as measured by a ability-appropriate standardized instrument, was significantly greater in participants receiving folinic acid as compared with those receiving placebo.

 to-large effect size (Cohen’s d=0.70)

9. Selenium 100 mg

Selenium is a trace mineral that is is part of several enzymes in energy metabolism, and in defenses against free radical damage and inflammation. Its role in the treatment of autism is not well studied, however, children with ASD often have diets that are relatively deficient in many trace minerals, including selenium. Some studies suggest that consuming plenty of selenium has positive antiviral effects, and also reduces the risk of heart disease, cancer, infertility, cognitive decline, autoimmune and thyroid diseases.

10. Immune-Aid

Kirkman Immuno-Aid Advanced Formula provides powerful support for the immune system. This "advanced" formula contains elderberry, a strong immune system supporter

11. Mental Clarity And Focus

SAFE FOR DAILY USE: Take one capsule twice daily or as directed by your physician.* 

12. TMG.

Methyl donors can help the body produce chemicals that can maintain serotonin levels in the body. TMG is a more active "methyl donor" than DMG because it has an additional methyl group in its chemical structure.

13. Liquid TMG

Similar to DMG. 

14. Buffered Vitamin C.

Buffered vitamin C is created when a mineral salt is added to ascorbic acid. This results in a substance that resists changes in pH, providing a better formulation choice for those with sensitive stomachs.

15. Lauracidin -for yeast 

Monolaurin is a derived from lauric acid, a component of both coconut fat and breast milk which has antibacterial and ant fungal properties. This is a very beneficial supplement for  high yeast levels.

16. Saccharomyces Boulardi-intestinal bacteria support .

         

Saccharomyces boulardii is a yeast, which is a type of fungus.

Saccharomyces boulardii is used for treating and preventing diarrhea, including infectious types such as rotaviral diarrhea in children, diarrhea caused by gastrointestinal (GI) take-over (overgrowth) by “bad” bacteria (especially Clostridium) in adults, traveler's diarrhea, and diarrhea associated with tube feedings. It is also used to prevent and treat diarrhea caused by the use of antibiotics.

Saccharomyces boulardii is also used for general digestion problems, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel syndrome (IBD, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis), Lyme disease, a bowel disorder called relapsing Clostridium difficile colitis, and bacterial overgrowth in short bowel syndrome.

Some people use Saccharomyces boulardii for lactose intolerance, urinary tract infections (UTIs), vaginal yeast infections, high cholesterol levels, hives, fever blisters, canker sores, and teen-age acne.

17. Yeast Aid

 

Kirkman’s Yeast-Aid™ is a proprietary product formulated to support the immune system and control yeast levels in the body. Yeast-Aid™ was developed by working closely with several physicians and with the guidance of the late Dr. William Crook, an expert in yeast issues. It is intended that this supplement only be used if recommended by a physician.

20. L Carnosine

Some research suggests that L carnosine may help to improvevocabulary, language comprehension, communication, socialization, object recognition, awareness of surroundings, fine motor skills,  and auditory processing in autistic children.

21. L GLUTATHIONE

Recent evidence shows that subjects diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have significantly lower levels of glutathione than typically developing children.  Glutathione helps remove and decrease toxins from the environment and food exposure.

 

22. Carb Digest

Kirkman Carb Digest with Isogest aids in digesting carbohydrates. It is an exceptional product that provides a complete profile of disaccharidase enzymes present in the human body. It also contains Kirkman’s proprietary Isogest enzyme. This unique formulation may be useful to those on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet because slight infractions of the diet may be counteracted.

25. CoQ10

Based on research studying high doses of CoQ10 studies show it can improve gastrointestinal problems (P = 0.004) and sleep disorders (P = 0.005) in children with autism with an increase in the CoQ10 of the serum. Research concluded that the serum concentration of CoQ10 and oxidative stress could be used as relevant biomarkers in helping the improvement of autism .

26. Kirkman - Cod Liver Oil with Vitamin A & D 

In children with autism, inflammation is prevalent. Fish oils can aid beneficial reactions towards reducing brain inflammation, impacting our neurotransmitters, concentration, mood, sleep, and irritability.

51 Pendulum Akkermansia for Gut Health | The ONLY Brand with Live Akkermansia Muciniphila

Lack of or low levels of Akkermansia in the gut is associated with a thin mucus layer, i.e., weakened gut barrier function, and has also been associated with obesity,  diabetes, inflammation, and metabolic disorders.

Unfortunately, Akkermansia is not found in food. However, it does feed on fiber. While there are many types of fiber-containing foods, research shows that the ones that best support Akkermansia growth are polyphenol-rich foods and prebiotic fibers.  Research by the NIH reported low levels of Akkermansia were found in the body of children with moderate to severe autism.

 

52 OMI Ring - Magnetic Field Therapy Ring for Natural Healing

Thousands of studies have been done pointing to the beneficial effects of low level pulsed  magnetic fields. PEMF therapy can also help children with autism by improving circulation. Studies show that the improvement of blood flow in the body and the brain is one of the most important factors to help individuals communicate better, and complete cognitive tasks more quickly and more easily. By enhancing blood flow, children with autism can link their thoughts and speech with greater ease, thus being able to communicate better and think more clearly.

 53 Hooga Grounding Mat for Sleep, Energy, Pain Relief, Inflammation, Balance

Earthing is not a cure for autism, but some researchers describe a calming effects in autism,, improvement in sleep patterns, as well as  better speech and socializing. Reducing the impact of autism on a child in this natural and simple way simultaneously lessens the stress level in the whole family. Earthing may  open a door of hope with those children who have EMF sensitivity or electrostatic imbalances.

54 Bacopa USDA Organic | Alcohol-FREE Extract, High-Potency Herbal Drops, Relaxation, Positive Cognitive Effect 

Scientifically known as Bacopa monnieri, Brahmi is an important herb that delays the process of forgetting and improves memory. Not only does Brahmi improve memory, but research suggests that it also increases the grasping power, intellect and speech and also corrects the abnormality of emotions, personality and mood of an autistic individual. It also helps in performing complex tasks such as comprehension, reasoning and learning.

Neo 40 promotes

Artery dilation for healthy blood flow

Healthy blood pressure levels

Cardiovascular and heart health

Increased circulation throughout the body

Healthy brain arterial function

Healthy endothelium function

 A direct connection between levels of nitric oxide in the brain and autism has been established for the first time in a new study. The breakthrough findings, from a team led by Dr Haitham Amal at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, offer an insight into a previously undiscovered mechanism underlying the development of autism, which affects around one in 36 children in the US alone.

The nitric oxide pathway has been \pivotal in exploring neurodevelopmental disorders. Pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is also suspected to involve a number of biological cascades triggered by nitric oxide-induced neurotoxicity. The excessive nitric oxide levels caused by varied toxicants leads to the formation of reactive nitrogenous species along with ROS leading to mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and altered NOS expression responsible for worsening of behavioral complications.

63. JustThrive Spore Probiotic

Spore-based probiotics or SBOs ( Soil-based organisms)  are the names given to these tiny organisms found naturally occurring in the soil. These SBOs can survive in harsh conditions and have a natural resistance to stomach acid, making spore-based probiotic a perfect choice when dealing with our digestive tract. Research has also found that these  organisms can actually penetrate the blood brain barrier and enter the central nervous system through the deep lymphatic system.

 

 

 

 We strongly advise that persons needing specific medical advice seek the services of a duly licensed professional. Every child is unique, and to attempt to address complex medical issues without a trained and experienced expert is akin to a lay person attempting to perform surgery without any training.
