I want to follow up the previous video I did and talk more about supplement reactions and regressions. Sometimes when you have a new group of supplements to begin you have supplements in different forms. You may have chewables, you may have capsules and you may even have liquid suspensions. And as I said previously, I suggest that you add them each one at a time instead of all in the same day. Waiting 2 to 3 days in between each new supplement is also a good idea. But beyond that, there is no rules as to what supplement to start first, which one to start second or which one to start third. If you are working under the guidance of a physician, they may have some thoughts as to what theyd like you to start with. But, for parents doing this on their own, you can just start at the top of your list and work down sequentially. Remember, keeping a log of what supplements you start and behaviors you are noticing is a good idea.One thing I do see in my practice is reactions to certain types of supplements. When you are using capsules, most of them do not have artificial flavors or colors, if they are coming from a reputable supplement company that caters to the Autism community. And because...more

Paralysis is a general term used to describe the loss of movements and/or sensation following damage to the nervous system. Knowing the precise level of the injury is helpful in predicting which parts of the body will be affected by paralysis and loss of function.Paraplegia describes complete or incomplete paralysis affecting the legs and possibly also the trunk, but not the arms. The extent to which the trunk is affected depends on the level of spinal cord injury. Paraplegia is the result of damage to the cord at T1 and below.Injuries at the thoracic level and below result in paraplegia, with the hands not affected. At T-1 to T-8 there is most often control of the hands, but poor trunk control as the result of lack of abdominal muscle control. Lower T-injuries (T-9 to T-12) allow good truck control and good abdominal muscle control. Sitting balance is very good. Lumbar and Sacral injuries yield decreasing control of the hip flexors and legs.Besides a loss of sensation or motor functioning, people with SCI also experience other changes. For example, they may experience dysfunction of the bowel and bladder,. Sexual functioning is frequently impaired or lost with SCI....more
