Promising New Environmental Links Surface as Science Continues to Search for Autism’s Roots
These latest study findings are very exciting because of course if environmental factors are found to be a direct cause for Autism, then there are ways intervene or change the environment and prevent this disease from developing and save countless future children form a difficult or unfullfilled life.
The Autism Epidemic – a macroepigenetic approach to identify responsible factors
The alteration of gene expression can negatively impact neurodevelopment significantly simply because the resulting mineral disparities caused by OP pesticides (Pb) and heavy metals (Hg) have the ability to generate and open corridors for oxidative stress within the brain.
What is Defeat Autism Now (DAN!)?
Defeat Autism Now (DAN!) is a project that was founded in the 1960s by Dr. Bernard Rimland. Doctors trained in the “DAN! Protocol,” are taught an approach to autism which begins with the idea that autism is a biomedical disorder. This approach was developed by the Autism Research Institute (ARI) which has more than 1,000 documented cases of autistic children who have recovered.
The belief among DAN! doctors is that autism is a disorder caused by a lowered immune response, issues caused by some foods, and external toxins from vaccines and other sources.
What Type of Treatments do DAN! Doctors Prescribe?
- Supplements such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, and essential fatty acids.
- Gluten- and dairy-free diets.
- Food allergy testing.
- Treating dysbiosis in the gut using non-pharmacological medications (i.e. intestinal bacterial/yeast overgrowth).
- Heavy metal detoxification.
What can I expect at my DAN! Doctor Appointment?
You can expect that your child will go through some testing mostly revolving around the state of their internal body. A test for hidden food allergies will be conducted to be sure that any dietary changes that are made as part of your child’s treatment plan are beneficial and not more damaging to them.
You should leave with your questions answered and a customized treatment plan for your child’s needs. If you have questions, ask, ask, ask. Remember, these doctors chose to be DAN! doctors. They believe in this treatment method, and want to see your child healthy!…
Is There a Link Between Uranium and Autism?
Recently a reader wrote us to ask about the link between autism and depleted uranium. The reader comes from Belgrade, Serbia; a city that was bombed by NATO in 1999 with depleted uranium bombs. Thirteen years later the reader is the father of a four year old daughter with autism. Is there a link between the bombing in 1999 and autism in a child born nine years later? Our answer is probably.
How To: Detox Environmental Toxicities
Body detoxification is the new big thing in healthy living. It’s very common in weight loss and healthy living scenarios to detoxify the body of harmful toxins that affect the immune and other important systems from functioning properly. How do you detect and detoxify the toxins that may be lurking in your child’s body?
Body Detox Part III: Body Repair Methods
Over the last few weeks, we’ve discussed the toxic body of Autistic children. We’ve talked about the sources of these toxins, as well as ways to detoxify or rid the body of these toxins. Once it is found that the body is indeed toxin infected, and the body is cleaned of these toxins, the next step is to “rebuild” or “repair” the body from the damage that was done to it.
Body Detox Part II: Detoxification Methods
“82% of All Chronic Degenerative Diseases are Caused by Environmental Exposure to Toxic Metals.” Scary, isn’t it? Once we realize that the body is toxic and what is causing certain symptoms of Autism, what can we do to remove these toxicities? Can you do it at home? Do you HAVE to go to a doctor? We answer all of your questions and more!
Body Detox Part I: Sources Of Environmental Toxicity
We’ve said it before, and we’re going to say it again, the Autistic body is filled with toxicities. Whether its heavy metals, acidic overload, or other toxic waste-like matter, there is often an unhealthy level of these things in the body reaking havok. The first step to all of this is detecting and diagnosing what toxic substances are in the body. We’ve discussed Hair Analysis before (and we also have this special offer for you right now), and the benefits of utilizing this test to detect metals and other materials that may be harming the body.
