I am new at this. I have an 8 year old son who was diagnosed with tourettes and mild inattentive ADD last week. We have been in touch with a DAN doctor and we have been giving him 2 teaspoons of cod liver oil and vitamin supplements for about a month. He is also gluten and wheat free for 2 weeks) and dairy free (1 month) and free of arificial color and flavors for a month. My son's attention and focus has been somewhat better but tics are the same. I cannot seem to isolate what is causing the tics at some times but not others.
I want to know that I am on the right track and that I for sure need to do the full urine, blood and stool testing in order to figure out what supplemnts will be best. I am supposed to start a probiotic and glutithione after the testing (as well as krill oil which seem harder given the smell of the oil and enzymes- which will be a lot of trouble to give before every meal.) It would be great to hear from others who have followed this protocol and had success with DAN doctors. What seems to work the best?
Thanks,
Confused Mom
