Beware: Legitimate health research has not shown that stem cell treatment helps children with autism, and mainstream physicians and autism specialists do not recommend this approach. Beware, and watch your wallet.

Stem cell treatment: The stem cell treatment for autism is not yet authenticated, there is research being done but no proven case has been registered as yet. Some of the people are doing it but that is not for autism as autism is not caused due to brain injury. It is a connection disorder. Please be very vary of such treatment modalities.

Are You Kidding!: I appreciate the frustration of dealing with this problem. But attempting an totally unproven, potentially very dangerous therapy, outside of an approved clinical trial, is in my opinion , irresponsible.Look for help from a truly qualified specialist, one who is not self-proclaimed.
