ATTENTION-DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER
AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER
Note: There is nothing in the book “The Miracle of MSM” about any clinical experiences with Autism Spectrum Disorder or Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. These are two mental diseases that share many symptoms and behaviors. I suspect that no one has ever considered Dr. Jacob’s clinic for this type of medical disorder. Except that Dr. Jacobs quotes Dr. Doris Rapp’s book mentioned below.
Of the people I know with ADHD, many of them are from addictive personality parents, or grandparents, alcohol, or drug abusers.
If you have read most of the information on this website, you must already have noticed that the author believes that MSM is the missing sulfur link creating many health disorders. Therefore, I named it “msm4all”.
You must understand that MSM has helped me with five different debilitating health disorders for over twenty-five years.
Who would have even thought that allergies would often be the cause of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder before 1996, when Dr. Doris Rapp, M.D., an environmental medicine expert authored the book “IS THIS YOUR CHILD’S WORLD?”. She reports that “many scientific studies have indicated that AS MANY AS SIXTY-SIX PERCENT OF CHILDREN DIAGNOSED with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD actually have an unrecognized allergy causing the symptoms.”
And even today, more than twenty-five years after the publication of her book, most people with children with this deficit have never heard of this fact and even less that MSM may help.
In his book Mental and Elemental Nutrients “A Physician’s Guide to Nutrition and Health,” published in 1976, Carl Pfeiffer, Ph.D., M.D., mentioned two particularly important statements along with others:
1.- Sulfur is the "forgotten essential element..2.- It is too bad that the use of supplements for mental health has not been supported by mainstream medicine.
One must remember that these two statements were made a few years before Dr. Jacob, M.D., first started to experiment with MSM to treat many health disorders.
In a 1995 analysis of nutritional and metabolic data by Jon Pangborn, Ph.D., a well-known nutritional biochemist, found that the metabolism of methionine is the "most frequently impaired or disordered amino acid" among 1,500 individuals with food and chemical intolerances, degenerative diseases, neuromuscular dysfunction, and mental diseases.
As reported by Dr. Jacob’s research, it has been observed that a small amount of MSM is converted into methionine in the body.
One must understand that the discovery of MSM in our body is only eighty years old. And MSM’s clinical experience as a natural source of sulfur nutritional supplement started only fifty years ago and it has been used by only a few medical physicians around the world.
Mostly all research and clinical experience was done only in Dr. Jacob’s research medical clinic for thirty some years until he retired.
The importance of sulfur deficiency in our diet has not even been accepted yet in the medical field. And the necessary study of the importance of sulfur as a nutritional supplement has never been made so that the US FDA would establish a recommended daily amount for good health.
The proven MSM auto normalizing effects at the cells level of other health disorders are certainly a reassuring factor and most importantly is the fact that MSM does not interact with any medicine, has very mild side effects, and is inexpensive.
However, because so many disorders involving the brain, the central nervous system, the immune system, or the allergic reactions of some people are well mitigated with MSM, if I had a child with one of these disorders, I sure would invest $20 to $30 dollars a month or more in MSM sulfur nutritional supplement to see if it may help.
One important consideration is the fact that I would be giving my child a natural substance that is already a constituent of his body, and it will not create the child any adverse side effect with any of her or his medicine.
Because sulfur deficiency is well documented in the different medical literature mentioned above, I would feel greatly confident that if MSM does not improve the child’s condition, MSM sure will not hurt.
I would give the child the suggested dosage of 2,000 to 6,000 mg a day, as recommended by Dr. Jacob, in similar conditions, starting with the smaller dose. Just mix it in his favorite daily fluid intake.
It all comes back to the first three paragraphs of this website, knowledge. People must do their own research to help their kids, not to just blindly accept their physicians opinion.
