A Biochemical Approach to the Problem of Dyslexia.
Baker, Sidney McDonald
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v18 n10 p581-84 Dec 1985
The paper presents the case of a sixth-grade boy, labeled dyslexic, who responded positively to a biochemical approach. Remedy of iron, zinc, and Vitamin B-6 deficiencies as well as an imbalance of fatty acids resulted in improvements in hair and skin and also in reading. A biochemical approach to behavior problems is proposed. (Author/CL)
