Anyone tried this? Comments?

I take various herbal medicines. Not homeopathic, though, I usually look at mine through the lens of traditional Chinese medicine. Homeopathy I'm unsure of the effectiveness of.

Also, the idea that heavy metals causes autism is a bit irrelevant. Why? Because even if heavy metals do have an effect on autism, everyone is getting the same amount of heavy metals through environment, diet, etc, so it doesn't explain why some people get it and some don't. In this regard it's more like phenylalanine allergy, except heavy metals are much harder to prevent dietary contamination. Why I like Chinese medicine is that it spends less time thinking of the actual "cause" of a disease, and more about how to strengthen the body to adapt against the disease. Also in Chinese medicine, it's very holistic, ie, kidneys are connected to back, etc. I like it. One Chinese medicine formula I like for ASD is bu nao wan.

On the homeopathic front I make regular use of

Chamomile - Its a natural Antispasmodic, Carminative, and a natural nerve conditioner.

Small doses of catnip (while not creating a drunken condition in humans) is excellent for breaking a fever.

BlackBerries - A HUGE antioxidant dose.

WIld Quinine - A excellent kidney conditioner

FeverFew I believe is a natural anti-inflammatory.

I am not liking this "cure" word used on this page again and again as a mother of a ASD child. That makes me skeptical about this to start with .

I am giving my son some supplements for two reasons: 1) They give him brain energy so he benefits from therapies better.. 2) he does not like the texture of many meat products so he eats really little meat for his age, they supplement his nutrition in the meantime, especially iron.

Homeopathy is quackery. The site uses complicated terms and abbreviations to sound impressive, promises all you could wish for to draw in the desperate and throws in some facts and falsehoods to make it sound like they know what they're talking about. It's NOT fact-based medicine, it's fraud and you should stay far away from them because they are after your money and nothing else. If you want therapy ask your doctor for options and if possible check with other people, like those on WP, whether it's a good therapy or not. Google it, get informed and don't fall for fraud medicine like homeopathy.

Edit: That is, unless you want to throw away money, be told you're doing the right thing and aren't actually having any problems. In which case I would recommend giving the money to charity instead.

Cease as in STOP homeopathic therapy for anything. Like has already been pointed out: it is snake oil - sugar pills and water. It makes me angry that shysters are able to prey on vulnerable people with crap like this.
