Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
The incidence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) has been steadily increasing throughout the years. ASD can be effectively treated with biomedical treatments. If your child has a diagnosis on the autism spectrum, then I would highly recommend you as a parent to consider some of the many effective biomedical treatments for children with autism. These include:
• Dietary Intervention: the cornerstone of any treatment for ASD.
• Vitamin and Mineral Supplementation: your child may have an increased need for specific vitamins and minerals. Many parents have reported great improvements in their children’s behaviour with the implementation of these specific nutrients.
• Gastrointestinal Repair: if your child has gastrointestinal symptoms (constipation, diarrhoea, bloating, flatulence), these are all indications of ‘leaky gut’, inflammation and bacterial dysbiosis that needs to be addressed. By adressing your childs gut issues first, there is ofen an improvement in behaviour.
• Heavy Metal Detoxification: children often have high levels of heavy metals (mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic, copper) in their bodies. There are numerous reports of marked improvements in behaviour following heavy metal detoxification. If you are considering this treatment option for your child, only use a practitioner that is experienced in chelatng heavy metals from children.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
The most common behavioural disorder in children. It is estimated to affect 3 to 5 percent of school-age children. Medicating children for this disorder is unnecessary. If your chld has been diagnosed or is suspected of having ADHD, then consider food sensitivities, artificial colours and flavours, sucrose and excessive phosphate ingestion as these have been well documented to be a prime cause of this disorder. Treatment of intestinal parasites, gut dysfunction, nutritional deficiencies and food allergies need to be considered if your child exhibits ADHD type behaviour.

Gastrointestinal Complaints
Symptoms or conditions that can benefit greatly from a Gut Repair Program: constipation, loose stools, gastric reflux, bloating, food allergies or sensitivities, leaky gut, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, irritable bowel syndrome, Candida or yeast overgrowth, poor memory and concentration, and mood disorders.
A Gut Repair program can successfully treat these conditions. The aim of the gut repair program includes:
“clean out” of the digestive system and removal of potential toxins and pathogens
regulate a sluggish bowel – constipation / diarrhoea
repair structural damage to the gut – “leaky gut”
remove any allergens or irritants
restore corrective balance of intestinal bacteria
ensure optimal absorption of nutrients
alleviate gut symptoms related to digestive or neurological dysfunction
Mood Disorders
Our genetic makeup and hence individual biochemistry plays a major role in determining the factors that will affect each of us and how these impact on our mental health. Certain people may have a disposition to deficiencies in certain nutrients and hormones which can lead to an imbalance of neurotransmitters and the development of mood / mental disorders. Neurotransmitter imbalances can be genetic in nature and involve abnormal absorption, metabolism and / or storage of key nutrients. Our individual biochemistry can help to determine which nutrients are individually required to balance health and prevent more serious disorders.
Insomnia and Sleep Disorders
We spend around one third of our total lives sleeping. Sleep rejuvenates and recharges the body, detoxifies toxins, repairs damaged tissues, initiates growth and aids the process of sorting and storing everything we have learnt, felt and experienced during the day.
Studies indicate that 4 to 6 hours of sleep per night leads to a progressive, cumulative deterioration in neurobehavioural function, including vigilance, neurocognitive performance and mood.
