Monavie and Autism

  Back to Autism Information >> Next Topic

August 2006

Let me tell you how Monavie has touched my life.  I am the father of 8 year old triplets B/G/G, one of whom has autism.  My son was diagnosed with autism 6 years ago and I thought his life was over.  We consulted with doctor after doctor, and even traveled around the state to try and find help for our son.  After trying everything the doctors recommended, we did not see any change in our son's condition.  We   sought out the best therapist and tried to enroll him in a special program in our public school district.  After numerous meeting with the school and therapists, we decided to pull him out of public school and home school him.  This was a huge responsibility on my wife and was rewarding to see his academic achievement.  But, the one thing he was lacking in was social interaction and awareness of others.  Being home schooled put a huge deficit in an area he was already lacking in.  So we decided to move to another county and try a new special education program to try and recapture the socialization deficiency our son had.  During the first year back in public school, there was regression in the skills our son had already mastered.  We opted to request for a one on one personal aide to help our son focus on academics and engage in more social settings with regular education students.  This was very challenging due to his lack of communication skills.  In the summer of 2006 my family was introduced to Monavie.  With huge skepticism because of all that we have been through, I decided to try a bottle of Active Monavie without telling anyone.  I started feeling great, had more mental focus, and was not nearly as tired as I was before.  I decided to give my wife a bottle of Active and have her try it to see if it would help her bad hip and back.  She had been in 2 car accidents over the last 4 years resulting in a broken hip and bad SI joints in her back causing large amounts of inflammation.  She noticed a difference after 1 week.  She started decreasing her medications and eventually stopped taking them all.  After these huge successes, we started doing private research on Monavie.  We found that it was helping all kinds of conditions and parents were having huge success treating ADHD. (For those who don't know ADHD is on the Autism spectrum)  We decided to try our son on a bottle of Original Monavie to see what results we would see.  We saw some improvements with speech and mental focus but not a huge amount.  My wife decided to research Monavie Active to see what the different ingredients were and why our son did not see huge results on the Original.  She found out that the Active contained essential fatty acids and glyconutrients.  These ingredients were deficiencies in children with autism.  Because of the autoimmune disorders most autistic children have, these were key nutrients that their bodies needed.  Once we started our son on the Active he did a 360 degree turn around.  He is now speaking full sentences and has much better mental clarity.  We have received reports back from Speech and OT therapist that have asked what are we doing that has created an explosion of growth and communication in our child.  Our son has is now being mainstreamed into regular education for Language Arts and Reading, five days a week.  This is something we never thought he would be able to accomplish.  By the end of the second nine weeks they want to mainstream for Math too!  

 

Update 2/16/07 Our son is doing so awesome.  Attended yet another IEP meeting to find out-starting next school year(Aug 07) our son will be completely released from the autism program at school and placed in a VE classroom. He will continue to attend an regular education class for Reading, Language Arts, Lunch and specials.  He is on grade level in all academics, and has even scored one of the higest on his Dibbles test in regular ed reading.  We have been speaking with several different families lately about the success of Monavie and their children.  Every child is different when it comes to dosage, so depending on your childs metabolism, he or she may need more or less.  Making sure Monavie is taken with a meal or snacks seems to work much better as well.

 

If you would like testimonials emailed to you please let me know.

I have a friend who's  daughter improved greatly on ambrotose and started speaking full sentences too.. I believe it is the glyconutrients in it..it is very expensive though @ $130/month~kinda pricey to me.  Something to check out:) Thanks for sharing!  I think I need it more than her:P Can you post the link to learn about them please:)

I have also been told ADHD is on the spectrum very high end I believe or rt on the line something like that.

My son Sammy has been taking glyconutrients when he first became diagnosed two years ago... he's almost 6 now.  Check out our experience at http://www-best-autism-help.com which I started working on last summer and am still trying to add more pages.  Sammy has improved so so much.

Now he's in half mainstream kindergarten half special-ed.  Although still slow in verbal skills, he is now bi-lingual and most of his autistic behaviors are gone.  My goal for Sammy is to be all mainstream in the next year or two.

I'm going to check out monavie... maybe it will speed up Sammy's recovery even more!

Good Luck Everyone!

You need to change your website link it is not correct.  I found the correct one that talks about your son Sammy.  http://www.best-autism-help.com/

My son is 6 and will be 7 in June.  He was finally diagnosed last September with PDD. Pervasive Developmental Delay.  My wife and I were told he has the opposite of Parkensins Disease.  They said with Parkensins your brain doesn't release enough dopomine, my son Chance has PDD and his brain is releasing to much dopomine.    He is on Fluxatine and Stratera.  We were told not to get him to excited as when he gets excited that he will release more of the dopomine.  My mom got a free bottle of the Monavie and just gave him two ounces yesterday and will do the same today.  We are always up for trying something new to get him talking.  He has never talked other than the babeling.

My son Chance 6 years old has PDD.

Monavie seems to be helping our girl as well. She is on her second bottle. I only give her 1 ounce a day due to high sugar content.

 

I am new to this website as well as to monavie.  I have a son with Asperger's and was so touched by your story that I was woundering if you could please send me some more info.

Thanks!
