Simple Spectrum uses highly bioavailable forms of vitamins and minerals specifically chosen for children with autism and sensory needs. Unlike standard children's multivitamins, our formula includes brain-support ingredients like choline, coenzyme Q10, inositol, and MSM. Every batch is third-party tested and manufactured in an FDA-certified U.S. facility.

Bioavailability is the extent to which nutrients are absorbed in a form that can be used by the body. Children with autism spectrum disorder may exhibit nutritional deficiencies due to reduced intake, genetic variants, and autoantibodies interfering with vitamin transport. Using methylated B-vitamins and chelated minerals ensures better absorption. Research shows vitamin/mineral supplementation significantly improved hyperactivity, tantrumming, and receptive language in children with autism.

Yes. Simple Spectrum is an unflavored dissolvable powder free from gluten, casein, added sugar, soy, binding agents, artificial colors, preservatives, GMOs, and dairy. It's also free from nuts, fish, shellfish, and eggs. The unflavored powder can be mixed into any food or drink your child already accepts - making it easier for children with restricted diets or texture sensitivities.

Simple Spectrum contains research-backed nutrients to support healthy brain cell development. Key ingredients include: Choline (supports acetylcholine production for memory and focus), Coenzyme Q10 (mitochondrial energy production in neurons), Inositol (serotonin pathway support for mood regulation), and MSM (sulfation support and oxidative stress reduction).

The Simple Spectrum Nutritional Support Supplement is $49.99 per container. The Omega 3 DHA Supplement is $34.99. You can save 15% by subscribing, 15% by purchasing multiple containers, or 10% by bundling the Nutritional Support Supplement with the Omega 3 DHA.

Dosage is weight-based - begin at about half the suggested dose for your child's weight and gradually increase to the full dosage listed. Most families find one container lasts approximately 30 days at full dosage.

Yes. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study found that vitamin/mineral supplementation significantly improved hyperactivity (p = 0.003), tantrumming (p = 0.009), and receptive language (p = 0.03) in children with autism. This is consistent with several studies showing vitamin/mineral supplementation benefits children with autism.

Yes - Simple Spectrum is eligible for purchase through HSA (Health Savings Account) and FSA (Flexible Spending Account) accounts. Some insurance providers will also cover the cost with a Letter of Medical Necessity from your child's doctor. A downloadable insurance form is available on our Insurance Coverage page. Check your HSA/FSA card or portal to purchase directly.

Simple Spectrum was created by parents of children with autism, sensory processing disorders, and ketotic hypoglycemia - alongside a doctor with a passion for functional medicine. The founders understand the challenges of getting children with sensory needs to accept nutritious foods, which is why they created an unflavored, allergen-free powder that dissolves easily.

Third-party testing means an independent organization has reviewed our product and confirmed it complies with specific standards for safety, quality, and ingredient accuracy. All manufacturing is done in an FDA-certified facility in the U.S.A. Every container includes a manufactured date - the supplement is effective and safe to use for up to two years from that date.
