Research Chelation Therapy

11/19/06 – Posted from the Daily Record newsroom
Thank you for the recent article on autism by Colleen O’Dea. It’s good to see this all in print. I’m doing very similar things with my daughter, who is on the spectrum too, and I know plenty of other New Jersey moms doing the same.And most of us can attest to

some nice changes in our heavy-metal-toxic children when using supplements, chelation, and HBOT. For us, the methyl B-12 shots were a big, big improvement. My daughter went from not asking or answering questions, to asking and commenting on everything. She went from only using two to three word sentences to full conversation.I remember about a month into the shots, we were eating ice cream together at an ice cream shop, and my daughter commented, “Those ladies are speaking Spanish.” And indeed they were. The ladies at the next table were having a conversation in another language, and it was Spanish. Not only did she recognize it was another language, but she knew it was Spanish. This from a girl who barely talked a month before.Another point is that these kids are brilliant, but they’re just trapped in a shell. As you chip away and restore health, you realize just how much they have taken in and learned while trapped in that shell.

I, too, am certain that vaccines contributed to this condition. A doctor in your story comments on how anecdotes don’t make it science. Well, the response to that is, “Study it then.”

But back to your story, thanks for getting all the facts right. It was a great article. The best on autism that I’ve seen in a long time!
