Nutritional Supplements

Because many of our patients have difficulty eating a sufficient amount of protein to support attention, concentration, behavioral control and mood regulation, we offer amino acid supplements. These capsules are derived from high protein foods that provide our bodies with the raw materials needed to make neurotransmitters. Developed by Eric Braverman, M.D., Director of PATH Medical Centers, and distributed by our clinic, these supplements can be part of a comprehensive care program for your child, particularly if their diets are lacking in protein at breakfast and lunch.
