Daphne and Velma discussed the importance of B12 testing for children with sensory problems, developmental delays, and autism, citing a study showing potential improvements in speech, motor planning, and detoxification. They shared that Dr. James Newbrander reported significant improvements in 94% of children treated with B12, including in executive functioning, cognition, and socialization.

The girls discussed a new published study on B12's effects on speech and motor skills and its relationship to early intervention, suggesting it could help revolutionize occupational therapy practices and parents to understand THE WHY beneath THE HOW. They emphasized the importance of practitioners understanding the physiology behind interventions to achieve better clinical outcomes.
