When energy metabolism is not working right (mitochondrial dysfunction), many functional neuro-developmental and neuropsychiatric disorders can arise as illustrated around DaVinci’s Vitruvian Man.  Proper energy metabolism is highly dependent on the presence of multiple vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other micro-nutritional natural components. 

What is a functional disorder?

A functional disorder can be described as a medical condition or state that affects how your body normally functions. 

Functional disorders can be thought of as psychiatric or neurological disorders as quite often, they occur deep within and go largely undetected during a routine physical or medical examination. It can seem like there is nothing wrong externally, however, the symptoms of functional disorders can greatly impair your health and wellbeing. 

Some examples of functional disorders may include the following: Depression, ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), and Bi-Polar Disorder. 

It can be quite a stressful and frustrating thing to experience because how do you get better without a proper diagnosis and subsequent treatment? How can you communicate your disorder when formal physical examinations and such like show no cause for how you are feeling? It can be very disheartening indeed, however, through understanding all aspects of health better, solutions can be found. 

Does this sound like you, or someone you know? The best help on offer for functional disorders is support and understanding of how they can affect individuals and products that are professionally designed specifically for them. 

NeuroNeeds is a collaborative of healthcare professionals committed to the development of safe, natural, and effective nutritional products designed for individuals with a wide range of neurological disorders.

In addition to mitochondrial function/energy metabolism, their products also address oxidative stress, neurotransmission, and inflammation. These processes are highly dependent upon cellular micro-nutrition, which includes multiple vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

From the list above of functional disorders, there is also a further one that falls into this category. It is called cyclic Vomiting; here is some info on it by NeuroNeeds. The worst part it, you can be affected by it without even realizing it! 

Cyclic Vomiting 

“Cyclic Vomiting is a functional disorder due to the function of the cells, tissues, and organs; not their structure. So you can do an MRI, you can do an upper GI, you can do an ultrasound, and you will probably not find anything. It doesn’t mean that it’s not real or in the head or no important.”- Dr.Boles 

If you experience any of these symptoms you may have CVS (Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome).

• Nausea and/or Vomiting

• Migraine headaches

• Abnormal sensitivity to light

• Abnormal sensitivity to sound

• Dizziness or vertigo

• Mitochondrial dysfunction

• Fatigue/Tiredness

• Fever

• Severe abdominal pain

• Diarrhea

So how can you treat Cyclic Vomiting? 

NeuroNeeds developed SpectrumNeeds®, it is based on science and proven methods that have shown results in people who suffer from Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome – people that may be just like you. 

Studies have shown that there are non-prescription methods of treatment through the use of the supplement, specifically formulated for Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome and related conditions such as Mitochondrial Disorder.

SpectrumNeeds® helps many people feel healthier, removes uncertainty, and opens the door to taking back control of their lives. Spectrum Needs is Non-Prescription, Affordable, and Effective! 

“Dr. Boles has recommended this product as part of the treatment plan for my young adult daughter’s CVS. SpectrumNeeds® has made a huge difference for her!”

Here’s some further information on SpectrumNeeds!

SpectrumNeeds® is a nutritional supplement containing vitamins, minerals, and activated cofactors used to optimize the nutritional status of children and adults with autism spectrum and other neurodevelopmental disorders (including ADD/ADHD).

It is used to stimulate specific biological pathways to promote health. There are 33 active ingredients in SpectrumNeeds®. The non-active ingredients in SpectrumNeeds® include all-natural flavor enhancers to encourage regular use.

So Who Is SpectrumNeeds® for? 

SpectrumNeeds® is designed to be used by all individuals regardless of age, gender, presence or type of neurodevelopmental conditions, common comorbidities, and severity of disease, DNA sequence information, medications, or other supplements taken. 

However, the formulation is in particular tailored to the dietary needs of children and adults on the autistic spectrum and related neurodevelopmental disorders. In particular, SpectrumNeeds® includes many essential nutrients that are often deficient in individuals with an autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). 

From a broader health perspective, SpectrumNeeds® can be taken by all individuals who desire a basis of excellent nutritional and dietary interventions to promote improved metabolism, methylation, and neurotransmission.

SpectrumNeeds® includes nutrients that:

• Constitute an excellent broad basis of essential micro-nutrition.

• Promote mitochondrial energy metabolism.

• Generate essential cofactors, such as coenzyme A.

• Provide strong antioxidant support for free radical removal.

• Remove harmful metabolites, including certain organic acids.

• Enhance methylation needs, and thereby assist in gene regulation.

• Facilitate selected neurotransmission, including GABA receptors.

• Protect the nervous system, including by reducing NMDA glutamate receptor activity.

• Assist in the regulation of insulin control.

• Improve small vessel circulation in the brain.

Some Considerations about SpectrumNeeds 

“It is generally recommended that your health care provider be aware of the usage of all dietary supplements, and SpectrumNeeds® is not an exception. The involvement of health care providers can be of particular importance to discuss potential interactions with medications, other supplements, or medical conditions”- NeuroNeeds

Infants: Consult your health care provider (physician, naturopath, physician assistance, or nurse practitioner) as to the use and dosing in infants and toddlers under the weight of 22 lbs (10 kg). None of the ingredients are considerations in infants, but your provider should be consulted, particularly for dosing.

Adults: SpectrumNeeds® is for use by adults as well as by children. The wording of “your child” simply reflects the fact that in most cases with neurodevelopmental disorders, it is a parent that is reading and providing this product for their child, regardless of the age that the child may be.

Reducing the number of supplements: 

SpectrumNeeds® is designed to be safe when used in addition to the supplements that your child is already on. However, it may be possible and/or advisable to discontinue or lower the dose of one or more current supplements that your child is taking; ask your healthcare provider.
