My son is just over 3 and has been diagnosed with PDD. We just got back the analysis of his hair sample: His aluminum and potassium levels are off the charts and he has very high levels of antimony, silver, sodium, vanadium, bismuth, manganese and zinc. His mercury and lead levels are normal.
The aluminum is frightening. I understand that a lot of PDD kids have high aluminum levels. I am going to have our water tested and make sure that we are using non-aluminum pans for cooking. I want to be aggressive with chelation too. Is DMSA the best and safest chelator for alum.? Have you heard of EDTA?
