Abstract: A treatment for autism in which an effective amount of lactulose is administered in order to bind excess ammonia in the gastrointestinal tract, the bloodstream, and the nervous system in order to prevent or reverse ammonia poisoning caused by the administration of certain antibiotics. Lactulose molecules in the colon are fermented by certain bacteria. The fermentation process lowers the colonic pH, and ammonia, in the form of ammonium ions, is used by the bacteria for amino acid and protein synthesis. This lowers the serum ammonia levels and reduces neurotoxicity.

Abstract: A therapeutic composition for the treatment of the symptoms of neurological and mental health disorders, such as Alzheimer's, bipolar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and oppositional defiant disorder, and the method for preparing the therapeutic agents is disclosed. The therapeutic agent is a stable pharmaceutical preparation containing, but not limited to, digestive/pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic agent may be manufactured by a variety of encapsulation technologies. Delivery of the therapeutic agent may be made orally, through injection, by adherence of a medicated patch or other method. Further, a method of using fecal chymotrypsin level as an indicator of the presence of neurological and mental health disorders, such as Alzheimer's, bipolar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and oppositional defiant disorder, or the likelihood of an individual to develop these disorders is disclosed.

Abstract: Disclosed in this application are compositions which include digestive enzymes and which are formulated to reduce one or more symptoms of Schizophrenia or a Schizophreniform Disorder. Also disclosed is a method for treating an individual with Schizophrenia or a Schizophreniform Disorder using digestive enzymes and their derivatives to alleviate the symptoms of Schizophrenia or a Schizophreniform Disorder. The method comprises administering to the individual an effective amount of digestive enzymes that are either naturally or recombinantly derived, or their derivatives, in an amount effective to reduce one or more symptoms of Schizophrenia or a Schizophreniform Disorder.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to the prevention and treatment of Influenza, and more particularly Influenza A Virus Subtype H1N1, with the use of a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more digestive enzymes, such as pancreatic enzymes and porcine pancreatic enzymes. The disclosure further relates to the use of an individual's fecal chymotrypsin level as an indicator, e.g., biomarker of whether an individual may be more susceptible to Influenza, e.g., Influenza A Subtype H1N1, and/or whether an individual will benefit from administration of the described pharmaceutical compositions. Use of the compositions as sanitizers, antiseptics, disinfectants, and detergents, e.g., to reduce or eradicate influenza virus present on living or inanimate surfaces is also contemplated.

Abstract: A therapeutic composition for the treatment of the symptoms of Williams Syndrome and the method for preparing the therapeutic agents is disclosed. The therapeutic composition is a stable pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more digestive and/or pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic composition may be manufactured by a variety of encapsulation technologies. Delivery of the therapeutic composition may be made orally, through injection, by adherence of a medicated patch or other method. Further, a method of using fecal chymotrypsin level as a biomarker for the presence of Williams Syndrome, or the likelihood of an individual to develop Williams Syndrome is disclosed.

Abstract: A therapeutic composition for the treatment of the symptoms of prion diseases and the method for preparing the therapeutic agents is disclosed. The therapeutic composition is a stable pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more digestive and/or pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic composition may be manufactured by a variety of encapsulation technologies. Delivery of the therapeutic composition may be made orally, through injection, by adherence of a medicated patch or other method. Further, a method of using fecal chymotrypsin level as a biomarker for the presence of a prion disease, or the likelihood of an individual to develop a prion disease is disclosed.

Abstract: Methods for aiding in the diagnosis of disorders including, but not limited to, PDDs (Pervasive Development Disorders), Dysautonomic disorders, Parkinson's disease and SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). In one aspect, a diagnosis method comprises analyzing a stool sample of an individual for the presence of a biological marker (or marker compound) comprising one or more pathogens, which provides an indication of whether the individual has, or can develop, a disorder including, but not limited to, a PDD, Dysautonomia, Parkinsons disease and SIDS. Preferably, the presence of one or more pathogens is determined using a stool immunoassay to determine the presence of antigens in a stool sample, wherein such antigens are associated with one or more pathogens including, but not limited to, Giardia, Cryptosporidium, E. histolytica, C. difficile, Adenovirus, Rotavirus or H. pylori.
