The Toronto Chapter would like to thank Dr. Kathryn Nobrega-Porter, ND, CFMP(C) for joining us and parents at our recent Parent Support Group meeting.

Naturopathic care is on the rise amongst families living with a loved one on the ASD Spectrum. Out of the many topics one was of interest: B12. Safety is always first and Dr. Nobrega-Porter want to stress the importance of individualized care and even though interventions such as vitamins are generally tolerated well, there's the opportunity for a negative response. To get tested and be under someone's care is very important. To learn more about B12 please click on the following link for Dr. Nobrega-Porter's Blog: http://www.wellpathclinic.com/what-is-b12-why-you-need-to-get-tested.
