Autism Spectrum Therapies

New NAC Antioxidant Study

Below is a link to the study I mentioned at the end of today’s episode of Autism Spectrum Radio.  N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant used for acetaminophen overdose.  The study looks at how NAC may lower irritability in children with autism as well as reducing the children’s repetitive behaviors.  

I want to stress to parents, these are preliminary results and should be viewed cautiously.
