Our child requires these three major nutritional needs which are zinc, omega 3 and calcium to a proper growth and development. Autistic children requires much more of these nutrients because their body is prone to zinc deficiency, weak bone that may lead to osteoporosis, weak heart and blood circulation too. What are the best ways to do this? Do you think a supplement may help an autistic child achieve an optimal health too?
