Chewable Calcium w /Magnesium (250 Tabs)

Supplementing with calcium is essential for individuals who are on a gluten/casein-free diet. Adequate calcium levels are necessary to maintain healthy bones, teeth, heart, muscles, blood coagulation, and immune system function. Magnesium is an essential mineral that is important for adequate calcium absorption, cellular metabolism and overall healthy body functioning. Magnesium deficiency can include poor appetite, anxiety, mental confusion, weakness, fatigue, confusion, sleep disturbances, and muscles spasms and twitching. These great tasting chewable tablets have a natural cherry flavor and are sweetened with xylitol and stevia, two natural and healthy sugar alternatives. Each tablet is formulated to provide 247 mg of calcium citrate and 50 mg of magnesium citrate. For children who are not receiving adequate calcium in their diet because of allergies or sensitivities to dairy, the suggested dose is 1000 mg of calcium daily.

Spectrum-Mate Capsules

This comprehensive multiple vitamin/mineral supplement contains 28 highly bioavailable essential nutrients in amounts and ratios designed to address nutritional imbalances commonly observed in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Abnormal gastrointestinal function, including chronic diarrhea and malabsorption, affects a significant percentage of individuals with ASD and contributes to nutritional deficiencies. Food elimination diets and a tendency among patients to be highly selective eaters further narrows dietary sources of essential nutrients. Spectrum-Mate addresses these inadequacies by supplying balanced amounts of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements in forms that are typically well tolerated by patients with ASD. Active forms of folate, B12, and B6 are included along with naturally-sourced carotenes, vitamin E tocopherols, and vitamin D3 for optimal nutrient absorption and utilization. Iron and copper, often contraindicated in ASD, are excluded.

Taken from cold Norwegian waters, this lemon-flavored high quality liquid Cod Liver Oil from Carlson Labs is free of contaminants (including heavy metals and PCBs) and is pleasant tasting. Highly recommended for children by Dr. Mary Megson, whose research found that the natural vitamin A in Cod Liver Oil helps support proper vision, behavior, awareness and immune system function. It also contains natural vitamin D, which can be deficient in individuals who do not consume enough fortified dairy products and who are not exposed to regular amounts of sun. Vitamin D is essential for calcium to be adequately absorbed by the body. Carlson’s Cod Liver Oil is also high in Omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA), in which many children and adults are deficient. Adequate levels of these Essential Fatty acids are of vital importance for maintaining good health. Deficiencies can be a factor in skin conditions, leaky gut, cognitive functioning, inappropriate pain response, poor muscle reflexes, immune system function, inflammation and many other conditions.
