About HLC MindLinx by Pharmax (NON-Returnable) CAPSULES

The first probiotic specifically developed for autism and ADHD
Some Interesting Facts

  • Up to 50% of Autistic and ADHD Sufferers co-present with Intestinal Symptoms.
  • Proven intestinal pathology alongside Autism and ADHD includes leaky gut, inflamation and overt colitis.
  • This gut pathology is related to sensitivity to certain foods especially gluten-containing grains and dairy products.
  • Intestinal symptoms and Autism/ADHD severity decrease when exclusion dairy and wheat diets are introduced.
  • This link is due to gluten and dairy proteins being broken down in the gut into peptides with opiate properties similar to endorphins and opiate drugs.
  • These dietary 'Exorphins' are absorbed from the gut and reach the brain where they cause symptoms associated with autism.

    Up until now, the only recourse has been to exclude these exorphin-generating foods from the diet. However, the problems is that it is not only gluten-containing and dairy foods that generate exorphins—meat and even some vegetables also generate exorphins.

    This is why Pharmax has developed HLC MindLinx—a completely new type of probiotic that combines the original HLC High Potency product with tow new strains that can break down these damaging exorphins in the gut...before they can be absorbed!


  • The Scoop from Annika

    Tip for giving Mindlinx caps (or powder) to your baby: I found the easiest way to get the contents of the capsules into my baby's mouth is by using one of those tiny plastic spoons they use at the ice cream/gelato store (when you are doing a flavor tasting). Open the capsule and pour out a little powder onto the spoon and close the capsule back up. Smear the powder onto their tongue with the little spoon. You can then follow it with a little breast milk, or let them chew it around with saliva. They may not even notice it's in their mouth.

    HLC MindLinx contains specifically selected strains of Lactobacillus which are proven to degrade wheat and dairy exorphins and to attach to and colonize intestinal epithelial cells.

  • HLC MindLinx has been shown to degrade dietary exorphins in human subjects (Figures 3).

    Figure 3: Effect of 21 days supplementations of HLC MindLinx on urinary excretion of opioid peptide exorphin B5 in six normal adult subjects.>
    Figure 1

    Subjects were provided with a meal of bread and milk and urinary exorphin measured over the next 10 hours. Subjects took MindLinx for 21 days before being offered the same meal of bread and milk. The difference in the 'before' and 'after' urinary exorphin profiles are clear.

  • HLC MindLinx contains the original HLC High Potency specification.
  • HLC MindLinx provides a total specification of 12 billion cfu's per day.
