Your child’s EEG may offer valuable insights into how their brain processes information, including folate metabolism patterns linked to autism.

Research shows that some individuals on the spectrum have differences in how folate is transported and used in the brain. These differences may affect language development, learning, and emotional regulation.

In certain cases, Leucovorin (folinic acid)—a bioavailable form of folate—may help support these pathways.

At Brain Treatment Center Plano, we start with a qEEG brain map to evaluate how the brain is communicating. This allows us to create a customized MeRT® (personalized, EEG-guided rTMS) treatment plan based on your child’s unique brain activity.

If your child’s EEG or clinical history suggests folate-related factors may be involved, L-methyl folate or Leucovorin may be considered as a thoughtful, research-informed complement to our brain-based treatment.

If you’re looking for an individualized, science-informed path to autism care, our team is here to support you.

Leucovorin & Autism: What Parents Need to Know

Some children on the autism spectrum have trouble getting enough folate into the brain, and research shows Leucovorin (folinic acid) may help support language, cognition, and behavior in these cases.

At Brain Treatment Center Plano, we combine medical insight with EEG-guided rTMS (MeRT) to create personalized care plans for your child’s unique brain.

Leucovorin supports the brain’s biochemistry.

MeRT supports brain communication and connectivity.

Together, they can be a powerful pairing for the right child.

Could Leucovorin Help Your Child with Autism?

At Brain Treatment Center Plano, we’re always looking at the science behind what helps. And Leucovorin (folinic acid) is showing real promise for children on the spectrum, especially those with language delays.

Research has found that many children with autism have antibodies that block folate from reaching the brain. Leucovorin helps bypass that block. And studies show it can lead to significant improvements in speech and communication, as well as behavior and attention in some children.

🧠 Is it just forgetfulness—or something more?

It’s normal to occasionally forget things. But if memory issues start becoming more frequent, it might be helpful to explore what’s happening in the brain.

As we age, changes in brain function can sometimes make it harder to process and recall information.

The good news? Early detection and personalized treatment can make a real difference.

At Brain Treatment Center Plano, we use MeRT (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy), a gentle, noninvasive approach that targets areas of the brain not functioning properly.

MeRT has helped patients regain clarity, improve memory, and slow cognitive decline.
