My child’s head banging has increased since starting protocol and I’m wondering will the injury from these head bangs stop his recovery?
Starting the protocol reduces the sedating effects of propionic acid and inflammation, which allow underlying negative behaviors (head banging, biting, scratching, yelling, hyperactivity) to become more intense. I advise parents that these behaviors often will improve within 4-8 weeks after starting the protocol.nnThe self-inflicted injuries will not, in my estimation, slow or stop the recovery. If the parents cannot protect the child, they should consider stopping the protocol and seek medical assistance about the behavioral problems.
