Vitamin B6 and magnesium therapy is an alternative approach claimed to cure autism by addressing potential vitamin deficiencies. However, there is insufficient research to support its effectiveness or safety. Large doses of vitamin B6 can lead to side effects like sensory neuropathy and headache. It’s crucial to consult healthcare professionals before considering this therapy for autistic children, as it requires monitoring and testing for vitamin levels. Additionally, therapies and supports for autistic children vary widely, so informed decision-making is essential.
