		CERI-DOWN'S ^Votes:0 Smart Drug Update: Part 1 Smart Drugs and Down's Syndrome by Steven Wm. Fowkes and Ward Dean, M.D. If you listen to scientists who specialize in academic research into Down's syndrome, or to the Down's Syndrome Association, there is basically nothing a parent can do to prevent the profound mental deficits and impaired growth of a Down's child. But if you listen to Dixie Lawrence, a devoted adoptive mother of one Down's child, or to Dr. Jack Warner, a California pediatrician with a ten-year history of treating Down's children, there is plenty that parents can do. In fact, this small group of motivated parents and dedicated practitioners has succeeded in doing what the authorities have decreed to be impossible -- the normalization of Down's children's growth rates and mental abilities.

		Nutritional Supplements for Down Syndrome ^Votes:0 Quackwatch Home Page Nutritional Supplements for Down Syndrome: A Highly Questionable Approach Len Leshin, M.D. Down syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of a third 21st chromosome. It occurs once in every 600 to 700 births, making it the most common genetic disorder. Its common features include poor muscle tone, short stature, a small nose with flat nasal bridge, small skin folds on the inner corner of the eyes (epicanthal folds), dry skin, immune-system suppression, developmental delays, speech difficulties, and mental retardation. Even before Down syndrome was found to be caused by a genetic abnormality, nutritional therapies were proposed, usually focusing on one or two items. Mixtures that included vitamins, hormones and enzymes were advocated in the 1960s by Haboud, Read More Go to Site
