A breakthrough for autistic children By Melanie Haiken
The cornerstone of the DAN treatment, also known as the biomedical approach, is addressing the digestive disorders and metabolic problems that practitioners believe literally starve the brains of kids with autistic spectrum disorders, as well as the heavy metal toxicity that DAN members think underlies these conditions. Treatment is highly individualized since autism manifests itself differently in each child, but a typical regimen would likely include a specialized diet such as the gluten-free, casein-free (GFCF) diet, a broad variety of supplements to compensate for poor absorption and digestion of nutrients, chelation to remove heavy metals, and treatment for dysbiosis, or an overgrowth of harmful bacteria, yeast, or parasites in the gut.

Parent Ratings of Behavioral Effects of Biomedical Interventions Treatment Effectiveness Survey
The parents of autistic children represent a vast and important reservoir of information on the benefits-and adverse effects- of the large variety of drugs and other interventions that have been tried with their children. Since 1967 the Autism Research Institute has been collecting parent ratings of the usefulness of the many interventions tried on their autistic children. There are three sections: Drugs, Biomedical/Non-Drug/Supplements, and Special Diets.
