False hope: desperate families prey to nonsense snake-oil treatments for autism
False hope: desperate families prey to ‘nonsense’ snake-oil treatments for autism Tory Shepherd © Provided by The Guardian Photograph: Alamy Bleach enemas, restrictive diets, and potentially toxic pills are among the dangerous and debunked “therapies” that parents of children with autism have been sold. The bleach – “Miracle Mineral Supplement” – was sold on an entirely baseless claim that intestinal parasites cause autism. Last year, the Therapeutic Goods Administration banned the advertising and sale of MMS after its makers also started claiming it was a cure for coronavirus. MMS may be gone, but there are still dozens of useless therapies being peddled. Some, such as chelation, are potentially deadly pills, injections or suppositories. Others, including strict diets and homeopathic or chiropractic treatments, are just a waste of time.
