We will discuss other supplement suggestions with regards to Respen-A in part 2 of this 2 part series. Another issue that has been discussed deals with high dose antioxidants. Now this is an issue for many children with Autism because often times they have problems with oxidative stress and so they are on many supplements to try and address this. Certainly there is the potential when a child is on many antioxidant supplements to give them too much. And it is hard to know, even for doctors, what that level is and what supplements they really need and when it is too much. The testing for this is inconclusive sometimes as well. So the recommendation is now to try, as much as possible, to remove many of these supplements at least in the beginning. Then you have the opportunity to see whether or not Respen-A is effective and what sort of changes you are seeing. Then, supplements can be added back in if needed at a later time.

Supplements For Autism with too many antioxidants can somewhat inhibit the effectiveness of Respen-A through findings. So these supplements are not having a toxic effect in any way, they just can impeded the positive effects seen with Respen-A use. Using high dose vitamin D is a therapy that is pretty popular in the Autism community, and there are many children who do suffer from deficiencies of vitamin D. There has been talk of modifying vitamin D dosages while on Respen-A as well as modifying other supplement dosages like GABA and vitamin B6. But the one that I have personally seen a clinical difference in my practice is with essential fatty acid supplementation. I feel confident in saying that it has the potential to inhibit the positive gains that can come early on from Respen-A. Now I check to see whether a child is on essential fatty acids prior to having them start Respen-A and ideally they will stop taking them about three week prior to starting Respen-A.

So as I said before, it can take about three weeks of stopping a particular supplement to see positive changes from Respen-A. There is still so much more to learn about this therapy and whether you are a parent or a physician, I encourage you to look at the research on this further. Like I said in the previous video, there is a Facebook page for Respen-A and you can post questions and get answers. I have my membership site which is autismactionplandotcom and you can find a great deal of information about this therapy and many, many others. You can also reach me there to ask questions with regards to my own clinical experiences using Respen-A with my patients as well as other treatments.
