False hope: desperate families prey to 'nonsense' snake-oil treatments for autism

Bleach enemas, restrictive diets, and potentially toxic pills are among the dangerous and debunked “therapies” that parents of children with autism have been sold.
The bleach – “Miracle Mineral Supplement” – was sold on an entirely baseless claim that intestinal parasites cause autism. Last year, the Therapeutic Goods Administration banned the advertising and sale of MMS after its makers also started claiming it was a cure for coronavirus.
MMS may be gone, but there are still dozens of useless therapies being peddled. Some, such as chelation, are potentially deadly pills, injections or suppositories. Others, including strict diets and homeopathic or chiropractic treatments, are just a waste of time.

A special message from Microsoft News UK: Hope hangs by a thread for too many young people this Christmas, whose lives are overshadowed by abuse, neglect and exploitation. Our Keep Hope Alive Christmas appeal, in partnership with The Children's Society, connects the vulnerable to vital services. Join us or donate here.
About 150,000 children in the UK could be lifted out of severe poverty practically overnight for less than the cost of the “eat out to help out” scheme if the government scrapped or suspended the benefit cap, campaigners have claimed.
