How Does the New ASD-Plex Powder Taste?
We’ve improved the taste by over 60% from our D-plex formula! Since there are no added flavors or sweeteners, ASD-plex has a mild taste of B-vitamins which is easily disguised when blended into fruit juice or healthy smoothies. The texture is smooth since the rice protein was removed. And one daily serving is now half the size with the same amount of nutrients, helping compliance. ASD-plex is revolutionizing the way children take their vitamins!
How is the new ASDplex different from the Original D-plex formula?
-
Better tasting!
-
Smaller daily serving size (1 scoop= 2 tsp)
-
Magnesium Glycinate/Citrate
-
Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) compliant (no rice protein or bran)
-
No soy or citrus
-
No vitamin A or D (ideal for those already taking Cod Liver Oil)
-
Increased Zinc to 30mg and Biotin to 312 mcg
-
Replaced Folic Acid with Folinic Acid (superior absorption)
-
Added specific ratios of important amino acids (see ingredients)
Uniquely Customized Formulation
To formulate ASD-plex, our staff of pharmacists and nutritionists consulted with top practitioners and pediatricians. The resulting product contains the essential nutrients, while it omits problematic ones such as iron and copper since kids with special needs were commonly found to have these in excess. Vitamins A & D were also removed in order to allow supplementary intake of Cod Liver Oil which already contains these two vitamins. In addition, the minerals and amino acids are balanced in a special ratio to help ensure optimal absorption. And, nutrients are in their most absorbable form including folinic acid, Vitamin B6 as Pyridoxil-5-Phosphate (P5P), and Magnesium Glycinate/Citrate.
Nutrient Deficiencies Are Common
Children who are finicky eaters consume diets missing critical nutrients. These nutrient deficiencies not only cause but worsen symptoms in special needs kids. In addition, they also tend to have improper absorption of nutrients from their food, further declining their health.
What Makes ASD-plex So Unique?
Contains:
1. NONE of the following problematic ingredients: Gluten, casein, soy, corn, citrus, rice, yeast, sugar, sweeteners, colors, fillers, iron, copper, and vitamin A & D. Thus it is an ideal supplemental starting point for those with multiple allergies and food sensitivities.
2. Enhanced amounts of activated Vitamin B6 (P5P), Magnesium Glycinate/Citrate, and Folinic Acid for neurological support.
3. Specialty amino acids such as Glutamine, Taurine, N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), and Inositol for detoxification.
4. Trimethylglycine (TMG), a methylating agent which reduces homocysteine and protects the liver.
5. The most commonly deficient vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants in their most absorbable form.
6. Balanced ratios of minerals such as calcium and magnesium.
7. Therapeutic amounts of the antioxidants Vitamin C, E, Selenium, and Zinc.

How do I use ASD-Plex?
Using a shaker cup with lid or mini blender (i.e. Magic Bullet), mix ˝ to 1 teaspoon into beverage of choice once or twice daily. Or blend into a healthy smoothie. See our recipes below! You can also try mixing 1 tsp. into almond or cashew butter or applesauce. Some parents have had great success mixing it into a little water (a very concentrated solution) and then using a syringe, squirting it to the back of the throat.
