David Kirby: Autism and Chelation: Where is the Science?

I have been stunned and greatly saddened by the death of a four year old boy undergoing intravenously EDTA, a chelator, this past week. I have written many autism organizations begging for their comment in this matter.

This was a different chelator than the more typically used oral and transdermal chelators. Most of the families I know are using transdermal chelators, which take much more time to work... but in my opinion, that is a far safer way to go.

Leave it to David Kirby to ask the right questions in this matter.

I'll be writing more on the quandra of parents searching for answers with very little help from the medical committee. I have many friends who say that chelation is heling their ASD kids. We need doctors and research to help back up the many similar claims coming from the autism community. We need research to determine the safest ways to treat our kids, and we need those answers soon.
