\nSpectrumNeeds\u2122 takes into consideration the scientific research and clinical experience illustrating that people with autism spectrum and other neurodevelopmental disorders function better when certain nutrients are supplemented at high doses; This is WHY our product includes high doses of: carnitine, coenzyme Q10, magnesium, pyridoxine, vitamin B12, and vitamin D3<\/p>\n

Promotes Mitochondrial Metabolism<\/strong>
\nSpectrumNeeds\u2122 takes into consideration the scientific research that reveals about one-half of individuals on the autism spectrum have mitochondrial deficiencies; This is WHY SpectrumNeeds was devised with a blend of the nutrients that can assist in mitochondrial function (energy metabolism): acetyl L-carnitine, alpha ketoglutarate, alpha lipoic acid, L-carnitine, citrate, coenzyme Q10, L-creatine, magnesium, zinc, and vitamins B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacinamide), B5 (pantothenate), B6 (pyridoxine, pyridoxal-5-phosphate), B7 (biotin), B12 (methylcobalamin), C, D3, and E<\/p>\n

Corrects Dietary Deficiencies<\/strong>
\nSpectrumNeeds\u2122 takes into consideration that children on the autism spectrum often have diets that are deficient in many nutrients shown by low levels in blood or hair; This is WHY our product contains the following nutrients: biotin, choline, chromium, folate, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, pantothenate, pyridoxine, selenium, thiamine, zinc, and vitamins B12, C, D3, and E.<\/p>\n

Activated Form<\/strong>
\nSpectrumNeeds\u2122 takes into consideration that a standard multivitamin supplement may not always be absorbed and utilized, This is WHY SpectrumNeeds\u2122 offers the active form of the vitamin in a bioavailable product: activated vitamin B6 as pyridoxal 5-phosphate, activated folate (B9) as 6S-5-L-methyltetrahydrofolate glucosamine and calcium folinate, and activated vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin.<\/p>\n

Expert Formulation<\/strong>
\nSpectrumNeeds\u2122 takes into consideration that not everyone is the same; This is WHY the dosage of SpectrumNeeds\u2122 is tailored to the nutritional management of neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as to a person\u2019s weight.<\/p>\n

High Quality<\/strong>
\nSpectrumNeeds\u2122 takes into consideration that the quality of vitamins and supplements is important; This is WHY SpectrumNeeds\u2122 is manufactured in the United States at a highly regulated current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) facility.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”The Science Behind It” tab_id=”1520980844037-cf71ee05-97d9″][vc_column_text]The Science Behind Nutritional Supplementation in Neurodevelopmental Disorders<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

There are several studies demonstrating improvement in children with autism, ADHD and related neurodevelopmental disorders using various nutritional approaches. The clear majority of research using nutritional approaches support the opinion that nutritional supplementation demonstrates promise in the treatment of these conditions.

A main obstacle has been that there are MANY nutrients that are important for neurodevelopmental disorders. In particular, mitochondrial dysfunction is present in at least one-half of individuals with autism, and is also common in the related conditions. However, the “mito-cocktail” alone entails taking a lot of different products, with many families on 10 to 20 or more different supplements!. My patients generally improved on mito-cocktail, oftentimes substantially so, but providing multiple different products is difficult on the child and parent, and expensive. Thus, I designed SpectrumNeeds in order to provide 20 different ingredients of the mito-cocktail in a single product. I also added in several additional nutrients that are often helpful in these conditions, as they are neuro-protective and\/or promote methylation, neurotransmission, and other important functions.
