Spectrum Support II provides extra nutritional support for the neurological and metabolic systems, in a very easy-to-absorb liquid form.

Spectrum Support II’s nutrients and herbs support digestion, digestive tract integrity, blood sugar regulation, detoxification, immune function, vascular integrity and circulation, as well as cerebral oxygenation and neurological function.
Spectrum Support II and Spectrum Support II with PAK each contain two bottles:
Part A – Vitamins and Part B – Minerals.
Our 32-ounce bottles provide over a two month supply for a 25 pound child, a one month supply for a 50 pound child, or a 23-day supply for a 100 pound child. The Spectrum Support
Spectrum Support II Vitamins and Minerals are designed to be mixed together and given 3 times a day, with meals, either in juice or other beverage, or alone with a glass of water afterward.
ABOUT THE TWO KINDS OF SPECTRUM SUPPORT II
Spectrum Support II comes in two varieties: original formula, and Spectrum Support II with PAK. P5P and PAK are two different forms of vitamin B6, a crucial nutrient for those on the spectrum.
The ONLY difference between the two forms of Spectrum Support II is that the original P5P form contains the active P5P (pyridoxal-5-phosphate) form of vitamin B6, and the PAK form contains the pyridoxine
As you may have read, vitamin B6 can be extremely very helpful to many children. However, depending on the individual child’s readiness to absorb nutrients and unique body chemistry, some can take P5P with excellent results, and others do better starting out with the less-active PAK form and working up to P5P if appropriate as their bodies can utilize it better. If your child is in the early stages of treatment, or if you do not know if they tolerate vitamin B-6 well, we suggest starting out with Spectrum Support vitamins with PAK, and working up to the P5P formula gradually. You can also purchase trial sizes of both formulas, and see which one seems to be the best fit.
ABOUT THE MINERALS
The Spectrum Support Minerals are chemically bound to amino acids to enhance cellular energy production. These minerals are extremely well absorbed, utilized, and tolerated, more so than minerals bound to sulfate, oxide, carbonate, or chloride. All our mineral formulas do not contain iron or copper, as many individuals on the spectrum have issues with metals. Supplementation of copper and iron should be based on individual need, working with a medical practitioner. Our Spectrum Support Minerals are made without any added flavors; they are not available in Lemon Lime.
ABOUT THE LIQUID SUSPENSION
The nutrients in these supplements are broken down into extremely small particles in a gentle, technologically advanced liquid suspension formula which is readily absorbed in the digestive tract and better utilized throughout the body than conventional powders, capsules, tablets or standard liquid solutions.
Our formulas are distinctive for what is left OUT as well as IN: We have never used added sugar, artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, or sodium benzoate preservative in our supplements and we never will.

Hello I still have not received my order
I've only just started using vitamin and mineral supplements for myself and my son but I'm finding them incredibly easy to mix with juice and NO aftertaste which is fantastic! Hard to notice effects yet but I already feel like I have more energy in morning. I'm excited to see how my son reacts as he is 18 year old non-verbal autistic. He won't eat veggies or drink milk or many milk products except cheese and really needs a good supplement that's clean and easy to take. Wish you were closer than Florida tho...I'm in Ontario, Canada!! Thanks again for your products, research, etc! B Waters
I've been relying on Brainchild vitamins and minerals for longer than I can remember for my profoundly autistic son, who is now 31. He self-limits his diet to such an extent that his balanced nutrition must be my concern. It's hard to know what benefits he might derive beyond supplementing his self-limited diet, but I can say that for all the profundity of his autism, he is NEVER sick, which is a blessing. I'd much prefer the option of being able to get him to eat a balanced diet. I cannot get him to eat what his sensory defensiveness resists, but he will drink these vitamins and minerals mixed into his juice. And autism is a lot easier when when physical health is good.
We have noticed a difference in our daughter’s communication since she’s been on these. The only thing is, it’s two tsp 3x/day which is not possible to do since she’s in school and it’s also just a bit labor intensive to think about doing it long-term. A more user-friendly delivery system for kids would be amazing. Also, the unflavored vitamin one still has a “vitamin-y” smell/taste but we get around this by adding it to juice.
