chelation

Do you guys do much in the way of outpatient chelation therapy for heavy metal toxicity in autistic children? My younger son is autistic and my wife and I were looking into this the otherday. Figured I would ask around and see if anyone has any significant exposure to it.

No, because it is based on junk science and I believe it is, quite frankly, malpractice.

I chelate lots of kids for lead poisoning and I am unconvinced of its benefits for that indication. Autism? No.
