Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)My middle son has PDD NOS and as a result has defects in the production of his amino acids. He is also notoriously picky about his food and often does not eat enough proteins, which has become an even bigger concern since we started pulling the milk from his diet. Since he has poor muscle tone which does not respond to exercise I cut the dose down by body weight and started him on these to see if they would help him out.(don't do this unless you are a health professional such as myself or under the supervision of one)
He has responded very well to the 1 tsp/day dosage and now we actually don't see ribs on his chest and back. He has more energy and is getting a little bit more strength in his legs over the last 3 months he has been taking them. Rather than lounging lifelessly on the couch for a good portion of the day he is up and active again. These aminos also have vitamins packed in there, many of them are very beneficial to DS as well.
2 negatives - the taste and the absence of Methly B-12 in favor of the cyanocobalamin which tends to be more poorly absorbed. The taste is quite horrid and I am proud of DS for being a trooper and taking these on a daily basis. Mind you, we also take Alpha Lipoic Acid Liquid which is AWFUL tasting, as well as other liquid suppliments so we aren't big into complaining about taste. These are far worse..even my DH (who loves these BTW) still can't get used to the punch these deliver. He also reports a much higher energy level and quicker recovery from his strenuous workouts from taking these at 1/3 the recommended dosage. Any higher he feels they give him a bit too much energy than he needs. They do provide results which is why we suffer through it! I think strawberry would be a better flavor to be honest..
I found the Subscribe and Save price to be the best around.
