Autistique 2.0 Topical Cream
In the early 1980s, one out of 10,000 children was diagnosed with autism, a relatively unknown communication disorder, affecting all of the developmental milestones including the nervous, immune, sensory and neurological systems. Today, autism and autism spectrum disorders have reached pandemic proportions around the world with an increase of 6,000 percent! The frightening numbers: one out of every 66 male children and one out of every 150 female children is autistic. A May 4, 2006 Centers for Disease Control press conference reported that two national surveys resulted in the estimate that over 300,000 school age children had a diagnosis of autism in 2003-2004. Addressing the biological and biochemical deficits of autistic children with nutritional supplementation has been found to be very beneficial. Parents are creative and innovative in their attempts to disguise the supplements, but getting their children to ingest the concoctions is challenging at best. Severe food intolerances and abnormal sensory sensitivities in the mouth, common for these children, make it difficult and laborious for parents to elicit even minimal cooperation from their children. Now it is possible for all parents of children with autism and autism spectrum disorders to provide their children with appropriate autism spectrum nutritional supplementation – minus the kitchen alchemy and child’s rejection. The answer? Two effective creams, either of which can be applied in a pea-sized amount to...the soles of the child’s feet. Autistíque and Autistíque 2.0 are creams formulated with a patented delivery system that bypass the child’s gastrointestinal tract allowing for complete absorption of the nutrients directly into the bloodstream. The gastrointestinal tract in children with autism is oftentimes the site for malabsorption, leaky or permeated gut, gut dysbiosis, and high inflammation any of which render it difficult for nutrients to be properly absorbed. Autistíque 2.0 is a formulation of neurological nutrients that focus on rebuilding the methylation pathway in children with autism. Methylation is the primary mechanism by which the body eliminates heavy metals and toxins from the body. Research studies have confirmed that mercury found in children with autism has actually disrupted the natural metabolic process of methylation. The main ingredients are: Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate (P5P) is the active co-enzyme form of Vitamin B6, which is more absorbable in the body. P5P is essential for healthy amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter balance, and immune function. It is also responsible for over sixty enzymatic reactions in the body benefiting both the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems. Phosphatidylserine (PS) helps to optimize a variety of functions of the single nerve cell as well as protect the cell membranes, and is responsible for nerve growth regulation. Many clinical studies for cognition have verified the clinical significance of PS as a brain nutrient providing metabolic support for memory, learning, concentration and behavior. Idebonone is a variant of Coenzyme Q10 with all its benefits, plus many more, including cognition enhancement. It is also well known for its neuronal protection against excitatory amino acid neurotoxicity from MSG, aspartame, soy, gluten, casein, flavor enhancers etc. It also protects both the myelin sheath – the fatty layer that protects the nervous system, and the mitochondria, where nutrients are converted into energy. Folinic Acid is the metabolically active form of Vitamin B-9, folic acid. It has the ability to cross the blood- brain barrier to affect neurological functioning. This particular benefit has enabled folinic acid to be more easily assimilated into the central nervous system as well, much more effectively than folic acid. Trimethylglycine(TMG) also known as Glycine Betaine, is important in neurological functioning because of its methylation properties. TMG is known for its primary biochemical process of converting the dangerous amino acid homocysteine into a beneficial amino acid called methionine. TMG and Folinic Acid are also the precursors to SAMe which is the body’s universal methyl donor that can improve mood, energy, well-being, alertness, concentration and visual clarity. L-Carnosine is a dipeptide (the amino acids Alanine and Histidine) that occurs naturally in the muscles and the brain. Research indicates that L-Carnosine stimulates the front lobal areas of the brain increasing activity, which may stimulate emotional responses, decrease epileptic activity, and increase cognitive functioning, expressive speech and abstract thinking. Acetyl L Carnitine is a carnitine derivative naturally produced in the brain, liver and kidneys by the amino acid L-Carnitine. The acetyl group of acetyl-l-carnitine is used to form acetyl-CoA, the most important intermediary in the generation of energy from amino acids, fats, and carbohydrates; and is also used to make the important brain chemical acetylcholine. One quarter teaspoon contains 25 mg (250 mg oral equivalence). Vitamin B-12 (Methylcobalamin) is essential for the formation of red blood cells and responsible for the body’s carbohydrate and energy production. A B-12 deficiency would result in fatigue and possible anemia. The form of B-12 called methylcobalamin is the only form of B-12 that can be utilized by the central nervous system and support neurological functioning. Methylcobalamin also participates in the methylation process in the brain to convert homocysteine to methionine. Lower homocysteine levels improve neurological functioning. One quarter teaspoon contains 500 mcg (5000 mcg oral equivalence). Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is an important antioxidant that is both fat-soluble and water-soluble. It facilitates the production of energy in cells and enhances the effectiveness of other antioxidants, regenerating vitamins C and E. Lipoic Acid is an effective chelating agent for heavy metals, poisons and toxins. ALA can also increase cellular glutathione levels. One quarter teaspoon contains 12 mg (120 mg oral equivalence). Vitamin B-1 (Thiamin) plays key roles in the body’s energy production, the digestion of carbohydrates, the regulation of nervous system function, muscle and heart function, appetite stabilization, and promotes growth and good muscle tone. One quarter teaspoon contains 50 mg (500 mg oral equivalence). As with all changes to the multidimensional treatment of a child with Autistic Spectrum Disorders, it is highly recommended that you discuss the change with your child’s healthcare professional before using Autistíque or Autistíque 2.0 Autistíque is a formulation of specific essential nutrients that work together to give children with autism functional nutrients that can have a powerful overall effect on the child’s immune system and behaviors. In some children Autistíque will calm the central nervous system, boost the immune system, attenuate disturbing sensory issues and improve abnormal neurological behaviors. See the Autistíque literature for detailed ingredient information.
