My 4.5 yr old is speech delayed, he’s been in speech since he was 18mons old. He’s made a lot of progress but to be honest it’s still something that’s not clicking for him as far as speech goes. He’s starting to notice he sounds diff than other children his age and the other day I caught him practicing his speech in the mirror and getting frustrated with himself. It breaks my heart and I just really wanna be able to help him.
I’ve been seeing these detox drops all over the internet and have seen nothing but good reviews. My question is would yall give this to your child?

I have seen reviews on tiktok i would give it a try. Also have a 18 month old did he say any words at 18 months how did you get him started in speech therapy

Wait, what? Seriously what does speech delay have to do with detox drops

I don’t think it would hurt to give to him but I honestly don’t know if these things are real or not or if they are literally a scam. I think anything could be great and be tried. But don’t feel discouraged if this doesn’t work at all

If you start could you please message me and and let me know so we can follow up when you’re done. I would love to hear about the results because maybe if use them for my son

I would but I would definitely work together with an integrative pediatrician, I’ve used zeolite before and not all of them are 100% pure so maybe that would be my only concern.

a lot!

I have found zero research supporting claims that zeolite has any impact whatsoever on speech acquisition or development. I studied zeolite in grad school. It seems all such claims originate from these MLM scams originally targeting parents of autistic children. These products are not tested nor their purported benefits backed by the FDA
