A cerebral folate deficiency is not autism, but has very similar/overlapping symptoms. If a child has this deficiency, was diagnosed with autism, took leucovorin and started speaking and being able to do more things would it be safe to say maybe that child was misdiagnosed autistic? Literally going down this rabbit hole of what ifs every time I see a parent say leucovorin was life changing for their child. #autism #Leucovorin #cerebralfolatedeficiency #parents | Oh-Maddy

Pica is a common but concerning behavior in kids with autism, involving the persistent eating or chewing of non-food items like dirt, paper, hair, or even feces. While it might seem like just a phase, pica can lead to serious health risks such as bowel obstructions, toxicity, and infections. So why does pica happen? Here are some possible root causes: • Zinc deficiency: Over 50% of individuals with pica have low zinc levels. Supplementation may resolve this. • Iron deficiency: Linked to anemia,

A Hope for Autism: Could Leucovorin Make a Difference? 🌟 Leucovorin (also called folinic acid) is a form of vitamin B9 that doctors have used for years to support folate metabolism in the body. Recently it’s being studied as an adjunct therapy for some children on the autism spectrum — especially those with cerebral folate deficiency, a condition where folate doesn’t reach the brain properly. Small studies have shown that, when used under medical supervision, leucovorin may improve language, so
