      Ya lor. Still so young. For my 3 yr old gal, I’m just reading books that goes ‘I like ice cream. I like slides. I like dolls.’ Very simple ones. Most kids actually start reading by sight and not phonics. My boy started with whole words. He is one of those early readers so I’m trying very hard not to compare my gal with him. My gal talk talk talk and totally not keen in reading. Sigh. I think those who can talk very well can’t read and those who can’t talk very well can read very well.

          Hey,
          Yup, super expensive. But I think the tests are important as a starting point and forms the basis of the supplementation. So jme, how effective do you think this biomed intervention is?

          During the first day of supplementation, when my son still couldn't swallow capsules, I tried to open the capsules and let him eat the powder (with some beverage). However, the taste was terrible and he ended up vomitting. Thank goodness that on the second day, he managed to swallow capsules. It was much easier then.

            So hilarious ... 😂

            That is what I do with my daughter also, point out things to her in the environment, sometimes so non-stop until really tired. And yes, she now becomes more aware of things around her and will initiate conversation by pointing out something around her, look at me and talk about it. Right now I am trying to use the 'W' and 'H' questions to guide her structure of thinking and conversation, as well as some simple cues like group, color, size etc. Its a bit rigid at the moment, but I think slowly they may integrate into their own thinking and become even more spontaneous.

            I try to teach her 'round' instead of 'fat' because I also worried that she makes such comments 😂 . But my therapist has recommended that we should teach the extremes 'fat' and 'thin', before we teach 'round', which is more grey. :skeptical:

            That's a nice word. Round to replace fat. But usually i only teach her round for shape. Till now my girl still mix up \"How, Who, Why, Where\" when she is asking questions.

            Any ideas how to teach? 🤷

              Arielmermaid, I agree w u that the tests r important. So far, I only did hair tissue mineral analysis, allergy test, urine test analysts and organic acid testing.

              For past year, I tried 100% gfcf but failed. It was really tough. I manage to reduce most of his gluten intake. took away his milk n replaced it w green smoothies n enzyme water. There was improvement but no large.
              After one month with Dan, his thick green mucous stopped. It has bothered him daily for a year n pd couldnt even help him. His eye contact improves, more attentive n able to imitate, more expressive n playful. I am hoping that he can start mb12 shots soon n praying hard it works on him.
              Currently he is taking magnesium, calcium n zinc ( liquid form ). Probiotic n enzyme complete dpp iv ( powder ). guna for liver detox. Ch77 for chelation. Fish oil.
              May I know how old is your son, his progress n what is he taking now?

                  lavendery, you have a DAN? In Singapore? Care to share more?
                  I'm seeing Dr Kay at Paragon since March till now. He will usually request us to do basic test like hair test to find out the toxic level and mineral levels, IgG blood test to find out the food allergy, stool test to find out the specific types of bacterials and yeast etc.

                  Along the way, depending on the child's needs, he will prescrib different types of supplements. It is also very common to fight with yeast and nasty bacteria, so usually he will put my girl on antifungal and antibacterial protocol.

                  My girl just started her MB-12 shots on beginning of Sept and it also happened to coincident with my girl starting to become more focus, surrounding awareness and more vebal. However i also did antifungal and antibacterial protocol at the same time. So i also do not know which protocol is exactly helping her speech.

                  So usually when my girl starts to loose her eye contact, verbal stim, sensitive to sound, walk around in her class, giggle at night or line up things in straight line, i will know its time to start her on antifungal / antibacterial protocol. I'm presently on agressive antifungal protocol with yeast enzymes.

                  Biomedical helps to address their biology issues hence in a way it helps to lessen the autistic traits. It usually focus more on the gut, mito dysfunction, adrenal, oxalate ... then finally to chelation when the body is ready to detox.

                    Mummies

                    Need your advise.

                    Currently, my boy attends mainstream cc on 4 days of the week cos one of the days are taken up by Therapy and EIPIC. Now, I have the choice of putting him in a private EIPIC but schedule wise, it means he will have to miss 2 days of mainstream cc instead of the one day currently.

                    If you are me, what would you choose? to let him go for his private EIPIC and miss two days of mainstream cc or stick with the current arrangement?
                    What do you think is more impt? to go to a better EIPIC to learn and overcome his ASD issues or more chances to mingle in a mainstream environment?
