Great question! Many parents explore complementary therapies for autism, with studies showing that around 74.5% have tried nutritional supplements. While some find these helpful, experts caution that alternative treatments can be costly and may divert resources from evidence-based interventions.

Research highlights that 28–51% of kids with autism use complementary approaches like dietary supplements or specialized nutrition. However, the CDC and other sources stress that non-evidence-based treatments should be approached carefully.

For trusted guidance, check out the CDC’s page on [autism treatments](https://www.cdc.gov/autism/treatment/index.html) or this [PMC review](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4439475/) on complementary therapies. Always consult a healthcare provider before trying new approaches. Hope this helps!
