Proven natural treatment for
autism. Herbal anger treatment in autism and PDD
|
"Your child has autism"
Many parents who first hear the
words "Your child has autism" are shocked and dismayed.
While we have all heard about
autism, many of us have only vague ideas of what the diagnosis
means and what can be done to help children
and adults lead as normal a life as possible.
The truth is that autism, being
a spectrum disorder, affects different people in
different ways and no two autistic children are
exactly alike. There are also many different theories about
what causes autism and what can be done to treat it.
This makes things very
confusing for parents who are struggling to come to terms with
what is best for their child.
Diagnosis and symptoms of autism
Autism is a neurological
disorder and one of five developmental disorders classified
under the heading of Pervasive Developmental Disorders
(PDD).
Pervasive Developmental
Disorders (PDD) is made up of 5 different disorders:
 |
Autism |
 |
Asperger's Disorder
|
 |
Childhood Disintegrative
Disorder (CDD) |
 |
Rett's Disorder |
 |
PDD - Not Otherwise Specified
(PDD - NOS) |
It is estimated that as many as
1.5 million Americans,
including children and adults, may have autism. There are
currently no medical tests which can diagnose
autism.
Diagnosis
is usually based on careful observation as well as information
provided by parents and other caregivers on the child's
behavior, communication, social interaction and developmental
levels.
There are also a number of
screening tests or questionnaires which can
be performed, including the CARS rating (Childhood Autism
Rating Scale) and CHAT (Checklist for Autism in Toddlers).
Diagnosis can be made by Pediatricians, Psychiatrists and
Clinical Psychologists or by a multi-disciplinary team.
|
In order to make a formal diagnosis of
Autism, the following symptoms must be present (DSM lV-TR)
Impairment in
social interaction
-
Lack of eye contact,
facial expression and social gestures
-
Failure to develop peer
relationships
-
Does not seek out social
interaction
-
Lack of social or
emotional reciprocity
Impairment in
communication skills
-
Language delay or absence
-
Inability to initiate and
sustain conversation
-
Stereotyped or 'strange'
use of language
-
Lack of make believe or
social play
Restricted,
stereotyped and repetitive behavior, interests and
activities
-
Abnormally intense
preoccupation with certain activities or areas of
interest
-
Inflexible insistence on
certain nonfunctional rituals or routines
-
Stereotyped and
repetitive movements e.g. hand flapping, preoccupation
with parts of objects
To make the diagnosis at
least 6 of the above must be noted, as well as
developmental delays in at least ONE of the following
areas:
-
Delayed or abnormal
social interaction
-
Delay or abnormal use of
language in social interaction
-
Delay or absence in
symbolic or imaginative play
The delays or impairment
described above can vary from mild to severe.
Remember that
many healthy children will display some of the above
symptoms. This does not make them autistic!
It is important that the
full cluster of symptoms described above be present. Some
of these symptoms may be present from early infancy, but
usually become more obvious by
2 - 4 years of age. |
What causes Autism?
There is no known
single cause of autism. It is known that autism is a
neurological disorder and that there may be differences in the
shape and the structure of the brain
of autistic children as opposed to non-autistic children.
It is thought that, in certain
cases, there might be a genetic predisposition
to autism, which may run in families. Whether the
predisposition to autism is genetic or not, there may be
several 'triggers' which can precipitate the
disorder.
These could include problems in
pregnancy and birth, viral infections, exposure to certain
environmental chemicals or pollutants, digestive abnormalities
or even allergies to certain foods (e.g. milk and dairy
products).
There are also suggestions that
autism may be caused by a reaction to childhood
vaccines. Obviously more research is needed in this
area.
It is important for parents to
note that autism is not a mental illness and
is not caused by bad parenting or problems in
the home. All too often parents are made to feel guilty and as
if they have done something wrong, which is not the case.
Parents of autistic children
need as much support and help as possible and
should not be made to feel that they are the cause of their
child's problem. |
|
What are the natural treatment options?
While there are many different
theories about the best course of treatment for autism, most
professionals agree that the earlier
treatment begins, the better the chances are
that the child will be helped.
Educational and therapeutic approaches
These include
specialized education as well as
physiotherapy, occupational therapy, music therapy, sensory
integration, behavior modification and speech therapy.
Depending on the symptoms and the areas of developmental
delay, these therapies can be extremely effective and can be
combined into the overall treatment plan. The earlier they are
begun the better the chances of improvement. It is important
to realize that none of these therapies are 'quick
fixes' and need perseverance over a long period of
time.
Dietary intervention
There are indications that
certain vitamins and mineral supplements may improve
functioning in autistic people. While there is some
disagreement regarding this amongst medical professionals,
many parents have reported marked improvements after a program
of nutritional supplements. There are also a number of
clinical studies which strongly support the use of
vitamin and mineral
supplementation in the treatment of autism and have
demonstrated significant improvement.
As nutrition is such a vital
ingredient in brain development, it stands to
reason that supplementation may have a positive benefit,
although this would vary from individual to individual. Some
experts have gone as far as to suggest that certain cases of
autism could be a result of nutritional deficiencies
or mal absorption of nutrients from the diet. The subject is a
very complex one and outside the scope of this discussion.
There are also suggestions that
autistic symptoms can be caused as a result of mal absorption
and intolerances to certain foodstuffs, especially
dairy products and gluten contained
in wheat and grain products. Some parents have reported
remarkable changes after the elimination of
these foodstuffs from the diets of their autistic children.

Natural alternatives
Herbal and homeopathic remedies
can be viable alternatives to the synthetic
drugs and may be just as effective, with far
fewer risks and side effects.
Depending on the symptoms that
need treatment, Native Remedies recommends the
following remedies to assist in an overall treatment
plan.
Herbal
remedy for depression, mood swings,
repetitive behaviors, irritability, and
aggression
These may all be symptoms of
serotonin imbalance and may
show improvement with the use of our100% herbal
MindSoothe Jr. formula (available in capsules for
adults and drops for children).
The ingredients of MindSoothe
Jr. have been clinically proven to assist in balancing
serotonin levels and act as SSRI's (Selective
Serotonin Re-uptake Inhibitors) in much the same way as the
synthetic SSRI's do.
Herbal remedy for anxiety (calm and soothe)
Tranquilizing drugs
may be very effective in
calming autistic children and adults, who can easily become
highly distressed and volatile over seemingly small changes in
their environment. However, many tranquilizing drugs are also
addictive and individuals may build
up tolerance, resulting in the need
for increasingly higher doses.
PureCalm
is an herbal formula which has been specially formulated to
calm and soothe children and adults without
the risk of side effects and potential addiction.
Available in easy to
administer drop form, the dosage may be adjusted to
suit children or adults. PureCalm may be taken on its own when
needed for quick symptomatic relief, and is
also safe to use with most prescription and
herbal medicines.
Herbal
remedies for ADHD, hyperactivity and concentration
Like the benzodiazepines and
tranquilizing drugs, the psycho-stimulants
come with documented side effects and
potential for dependency.
Yet many parents find it very
difficult to deal with Autistic children who also have
symptoms of ADHD, hyperactivity and
concentration problems.
For the treatment of
hyperactivity, restlessness and lack of concentration,
Native Remedies has developed two highly effective
remedies:
Focus ADHD Formula
is a 100% herbal remedy which has been specially formulated to
treat the symptoms of ADHD in children and adults alike. Focus
ADHD comes in a tincture and is easily administered as drops
in some juice or water.
Native Remedies also offers
BrightSpark, a safe and effective homeopathic
formula.
BrightSpark can be effectively
used on its own or it can be combined
with Focus ADHD Formula for severe or stubborn cases
or for children with defiance and anger problems.
Herbal remedy for tantrums
Many Autism children have
violent tantrums, sometimes seemingly without
cause. Tantrums may often be a result of the child's
frustration at being unable to communicate or
understand, and may also be a response to changes in routine
or environment.
Tantrum Tamer
is a specially formulated homeopathic remedy that uses proven
homeopathic ingredients which can greatly
reduce or eliminate distressing and hard to handle tantrums.
Tantrum Tamer dissolves easily
in the mouth and is pleasant tasting
making it readily accepted by children.
The above remedies may be
used independently or in combination. See
bottom
of page for discount combination packages. |

How have
these products helped others?
"I just
wanted to let you know how you have changed lives. My two boys
are autistic. They were diagnosed early and put on medication.
At one point, they were on 6 medications each. One day out of
frustration, I searched the web for natural remedies for
autism and found you. I weaned them off the prescription drugs
and started them on Focus and
PureCalm in the morning and MindSoothe Jr.
at night. Within two months they were brighter,
calmer, and more themselves than they have ever been. That was
over 6 months ago and they are doing so well, the schools are
moving them into more regular classes. We are so grateful for
your remedies. It has changed their lives. Oh, by the way,
they have both lost a total of 70 pounds since coming off the
medicine and taking your products! Thank you so much!"-
Tammy S. MO
MindSoothe Jr.
"My son was diagnosed with Autism when he was three years old
and we have struggled with him a lot because he rocks himself
and is very restless all the time and also gets frustrated and
he hurts himself. I was recommended that he go on an
antidepressant to help the stimming which really worried me as
he is so young and also he is very sensitive to medicines.
After I found Mindsoothe Jr. and all the
information on your website, I thought I would rather try a
natural product and I am very glad I did. My son is much
calmer and the stimming has improved a lot - to only when he
is upset or stressed. Then we let him suck on the OK
KiddieCalmer and he is much better. He is also
happier and can play with us now which he never did before.
This is after only 6 weeks and I know that we will see more
improvement from now on because he is much easier to reach.
Thank you very much - I can really recommend your products and
I have put my name down for repeat orders" -
Sharon, CA
I have an 18
year old, mid-range functioning, autistic son that was in such
anxiety over the transition to the bus and school that we were
considering putting him in a group home. I was desperate in
trying Mindsoothe, but thought anything is
worth a try. We have been giving him a child's dose as soon as
he gets up, in his juice and our mornings have never been so
smooth. Thank you so much for keeping our family together and
giving him the peace of mind to make these transitions easier.
His school notes have NEVER had words like fun, cooperative,
and finishes his work before. THANK YOU -
Karen, GA
Focus ADHD Formula
My daughter was diagnosed w/PDD.NOS and the doctors put her on
prescription medicine which helps ADHD children. She had some
side effects so we took her off of it. I found your website
and ordered FOCUS. She is only 5 and I give
only in the morning before school w/some juice. After a few
weeks on FOCUS she has been getting much better reports sent
home from school and has even been able to discontinue her OT.
I feel that FOCUS along with a small adjustment in her diet
has helped more than the prescription meds. the doctor
originally had her on - Lisa S.,
NY
"I am
writing about the big improvement in my daughter, Janey who is
autistic. She can't be taught in a mainstream school because
she can't keep up in a big class but she is in a special needs
school. The teacher said that unless she had Ritalin she would
never be able to learn anything, which I was very upset about
due to all the negative stuff you read. My daughter is such a
sweet child but she cannot concentrate on one thing and jumps
around not even able to sit still on her seat. If she does sit
still, she is flapping her hands or tapping her pencil and
nothing goes in. After one week of Focus we
could see that she was calmer and after 6 weeks she could sit
still and do some drawing. Now she is more calm and responsive
in class and I can notice that she is happier to go to school.
I can tell you that the teacher can't believe it as she said
that the natural stuff is not strong enough for my child, but
she was wrong!!" - Stacy, CT
BrightSpark
"This remedy has brought about the most amazing change in my
daughter who is autistic! We want to recommend it to other
parents who have been told that their children will never
change as we have been told by the doctors. She is so much
more calmer and will even sit on my lap for the first time in
her life which makes my heart so happy!!! I know that you
cannot cure autism but my daughter is a different child and we
can see the changes every day. I think that it is because this
is the first time that she is beginning to notice what is
going on around her. I just wanted to say that if anyone has
any doubts, rather try it for yourself and you will see the
difference. Thanks for everything!" -
One Happy Mother, CA
PureCalm
"My 11 year old becomes very upset and stresses over small
things, for example if we have to move the furniture to clean
underneath it then we have to do it when she is asleep! This
is because of her autism which she can't control so we
understand but it is very difficult to keep everything the
same all the time, which obviously we can't - so sometimes she
screams and cries and then you can't get her to stop. My
friend was taking PureCalm Drops for herself
and said why not try it, so we did. It helps very much when my
poor child needs to calm down and we just drop it in her juice
and she drinks it because she loves her juice! She doesn't get
drowsy just calmer."- Cathy L
Tula Tantrum Tamer
"Thank you for all your advice and for lending an ear in my
hour of need. I have received the Tantrum Tamer
and am giving you the results as you requested. I am very
happy with the way that it calms my son when he becomes so
angry and starts to scream and kick. I am using it every day
as you directed and he is definitely calmer and has less
tantrums. When he does get upset I give him an extra dose and
the tantrum seems to disappear. He likes to take the
medication and seems to know that it will help him." -
Diana
Serenite Jr.
"Dear Sirs, I am very happy to say that my youngster is
finally falling asleep after using your Serenite Jr.
for children. She has autism and instead of hours of rocking
and walking up and down, my wife and I can sit down and eat
our dinner together for the first time since our child was
born, which was almost four years ago. I have no hesitation in
recommending this product to anyone who is facing the same
problem." - Henry. |
MindSoothe Jr
Herbal remedy for depression, mood swings, repetitive
behaviors, irritability, and aggression
These may all be
symptoms of serotonin
imbalance and may show improvement with the
use of our 100% herbal MindSoothe Jr.
formula (available in capsules for adults and
drops for children).
The ingredients of
MindSoothe Jr. have been clinically proven to assist
in balancing serotonin levels and act as
SSRI's (Selective Serotonin Re-uptake
Inhibitors) in much the same way as the synthetic
SSRI's do.
Research has suggested
that continued use can also improve
eye contact and emotional
responsiveness. It is important to remember
that MindSoothe Jr. must be taken regularly
and that improvement is usually noted only after 3 - 5
weeks, although some individuals respond much sooner.

How old must the child be?
MindSoothe Jr.
can safely be used by children from about the age of 6.
Children younger than 6
can also use MindSoothe Jr. but should be supervised by
a health care practitioner.
Caution:
Never discontinue prescription
medication without first consulting your doctor
or a health care professional who is experienced in
natural medicine. Do not use MindSoothe Jr. together
with other prescription anti-depressants.
If your child is very fair in complexion, use a
sun block if there is excessive exposure to sun
as St John's Wort can sometimes increase the skin's
sensitivity to sunburn.
How quickly will it work?
MindSoothe Jr.
contains two different ingredients, which act in
different ways.
Passiflora
takes effect very quickly, especially when presented in
tincture form. You should notice that your child is
calmer, less irritable and less easily frustrated.
St John's Wort
works by preventing the over-metabolism of serotonin and
the effect is gradual, taking 3 - 5 weeks to reach its
full potential. Within this period you should notice a
gradual improvement in mood and behavior, as well as
concentration.
It is important
that MindSoothe Jr. be used regularly as recommended.
Continue use for about 6 months
and then gradually taper off over a period of about 3
weeks. If symptoms do not return it will not be
necessary to continue treatment.
How do I administer MindSoothe Jr.?
Instead of the capsules
used in the adult formula, MindSoothe Jr.
comes in convenient and easy to administer
drop form.
Determining dosage is
easy as MindSoothe Jr. is specially formulated to be
administered at the dosage of one drop per age
year of the child.
For children over the
age of 15 years please see our
adult formula.
Simply dilute
MindSoothe Jr. in a little water or
juice (about 1/4 glass). No more fussing and
pleading with your child to swallow pills or capsules.
Use the recommended dosage in your child's
favorite juice - Nothing could be easier!
How long will a bottle last?
One bottle of MindSoothe
Jr. will last 30-45 days. A 90-120 day
supply (see the 'Buy 2 Get 1 FREE'
special below) would be three bottles. |
PureCalm
Herbal remedy for Anxiety (calm and soothe)
Tranquilizing
drugs may be very
effective in calming autistic children and adults, who
can easily become highly
distressed and volatile over seemingly small
changes in their environment.
However, many
tranquilizing drugs are also addictive
and individuals may build up tolerance,
resulting in the need for increasingly
higher doses.
PureCalm is an herbal
formula which has been specially formulated to
calm and soothe children and adults
without the risk of side effects and potential
addiction.
Available in easy
to administer drop form, the dosage may be
adjusted to suit children or adults. PureCalm may be
taken on its own when needed for quick
symptomatic relief, and is also safe to use
with most prescription and herbal medicines.

Focus and BrightSpark
Herbal remedies for ADHD, hyperactivity and
concentration
Like the benzodiazepines
and tranquilizing drugs, the psycho-stimulants
come with documented side effects and
potential for dependency. Yet many
parents find it very difficult to deal with Autism
children who also have symptoms of ADHD,
hyperactivity and concentration
problems.
For the treatment of
hyperactivity, restlessness and lack of concentration,
Native Remedies has developed two highly effective
remedies:
Focus ADHD Formula is a
100% herbal remedy which has been
specially formulated to treat the symptoms of
ADHD in children and adults alike. Focus comes
in a tincture an is easily administered as drops in some
juice or water.
How do I use Focus?

the age of 15: Take one
drop per age year of the child or adolescent in a little
water or juice every morning and evening after meals.
Adults:
Take 20 drops in a little water every morning and
evening after meals.
Focus may be also be
combined with BrightSpark homeopathic ADD/ADHD remedy or
MindSoothe Jr. (ages 3-15).
How long until I see results?
While an immediate
calming effect is usually noted, it takes a little
longer for improvements in concentration,
distractibility and memory to be noted.
How long will a bottle last?
One bottle of
Focus ADHD at full adult dosage (20 drops twice
daily) will last 25-30 days.
For children under the
age of 15 one bottle will last longer as less drops are
taken, a bottle of Focus for a 10 year old child for
example would last around 50 days.
A 90-120 day supply of 3
bottles is offered at a discount (see
the Buy 2 Get 1 FREE special above).
Native Remedies also
offers BrightSpark, a safe and effective
homeopathic formula. BrightSpark can be
effectively used on its own or it can be
combined with Focus ADHD Formula for severe or
stubborn cases or for children with defiance and anger
problems.
