Recent studies from Harvard Medical School have suggested that inflammation may play a role in the development of autism. A study published in the Journal of Neuroinflammation found that children with autism had higher levels of inflammatory markers in their blood than typically developing children.
Inflammation is a crucial process for our health, but when it becomes chronic, it can lead to a host of health problems.
Cytokines signal the immune system to protect the body from threats like bacteria, allergens, toxins, and other harmful microbes and substances. In this case, they are pro-inflammatory, so they create inflammation as a defense mechanism for the body.
Another study published in the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders found that children with autism had higher levels of inflammatory cytokines in their brains than typically developing children.
Studies increasingly indicate a strong inflammatory state associated with ASD [11]. This inflammatory condition is often linked to immune system dysfunction [12]. Enhanced inflammatory activity in ASD children has been demonstrated through pro-inflammatory biomarkers analysis.
What is inflammation and how is it related to autism?
Inflammation is a natural response by the immune system to protect the body from any harmful stimuli. However, when inflammation becomes chronic, it can lead to tissue damage and a variety of health problems, including autoimmune disorders, heart disease, and even neurological disorders like autism.
Recent research has suggested that inflammation may contribute to the development of autism by disrupting healthy brain development during critical periods of growth in utero or early childhood. Inflammation can also exacerbate symptoms associated with autism, such as irritability and social withdrawal.
Children with autism often have chronic inflammation. This is not only a problem in the digestive system but also in the brain. Inflammation impairs brain cells and it can also kill them.
If the brain cells are weakened, they are even less capable of fending off toxins or excreting them once they have entered the cell...

We live in a world filled with electromagnetic field radiation from cell phones to wifi and satellites, so how can we protect ourselves in today’s world of high technology and convenience? This is what I share with you today. I’m always about offering you education and solutions to help protect your family and live a healthier life!
In order to help your child’s body recover from toxic insult, pathogens, inflammation, and more, we must simultaneously harmonize electromagnetic field radiation, otherwise healing will be limited. For reference, electromagnetic field radiation is also commonly referred to as EMF or EMR.
Children with autism may be on a program to increase their overall health as part of a recovery process, but EMF’s can sabotage your efforts unless you protect your child from them.
This podcast will cover many of the dangers to help you to truly understand the danger that EMF’s emit on us constantly. I also offer you the very best solution I have found for your protection from EMR.
I’d like to go over some studies for you because studies offer credibility and more in depth knowledge for you, but it is my hope that they also help you to take this seriously.
A few quick tips to peak your interest:

The Center for Disease Control has determined that tooth decay is the #1 chronic childhood disease in America with children ages 2-5 being the most prevalent.
Today I’m introducing the subject of preventing as many incidents of tooth decay as possible. This topic arises for two reasons: First, for years I have seen and heard about so many traumatic events caused by dental cavities and the difficulty of treating autism spectrum patients; and second because I know that oral health is an important component of overall general health.
In over 18 years of working with autism, hundreds of parents have told me about their children’s dental issues, and many resulted in multiple extractions at a very young age.
I’ve partnered with a highly skilled pediatric dentist, Dr. Steve Branam, for this podcast to help expand outreach regarding the importance of increasing education about oral health.
Dr. Branam is a champion of reducing tooth decay in families through the use of Xylitol toothpaste. He has been in practice for 50 years, conducted over 500,000 patient treatment sessions, and interviewed the parents of thousands of new patients.
He also performs surgery on many special needs children and is intimately familiar with the problems of controlling and treating tooth decay in children on the autism spectrum and their families. His backlog of surgical patients is growing, and the growing demand for intensive treatment of autism spectrum children is a national phenomenon...

Have you ever been told that your child cannot recover from autism? Yeah, me too. Yet today, my son is no longer diagnosable with the symptoms of autism he once had.
Sometimes, instead of getting excited when they hear this, a parent will get defensive, as though someone is trying to change ‘who’ their child is. Autism is not a ‘who’. It’s a ‘what’.
WHAT IS AUTISM?The correct term is “Autism Spectrum Disorder” (ASD). It refers to a range of neurodevelopmental conditions collectively characterized by similar traits, like challenges with social skills, communication, and repetitive behaviors.
Autism is defined as the autism spectrum disorder, or ASD, because the symptoms range in severity.
If you are new to all of this or reading about autism for a friend or loved one, let’s begin with the basics. Generally, the symptoms of autism refer to a difficulty processing emotions and a heightened sensitivity to external stimuli.
No two people with autism have the same exact symptoms. It’s an extended spectrum with one end being those who are higher functioning and the other being very low functioning. The meaning behind “functioning” depends on their ability to navigate life.
Some symptoms simply make life more challenging.
You may have also heard the term “Aspergers Syndrome.” This term was first described in 1944 by Austrian physician Hans Asperger. In 2013, The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM–5) removed the term Aspergers and placed this diagnosis under the umbrella of autism spectrum disorders...

Keep track of the lunar cycle each month and observe whether your child’s symptoms, or your own, intensify in the days leading up to and following the full moon. [This is podcast episode #205].
The full moon has long been associated with a range of mysterious phenomena, from sleep disturbances to heightened emotions. But one of the more intriguing aspects is that full moons can increase parasite activity in humans. Is there any truth to this claim, or is it just another lunar myth?
Let’s explore how the moon’s phases, particularly the full moon, might impact the behavior of parasites and what science has to say about it.
First Of All, How Do We Get Parasites?Common ways we get parasites are from inhaling them from the air we breathe, in the food we eat, drinking water, swimming or bathing in contaminated water, and through our skin. Lesions in the skin, especially on the feet, allow for easy entrance into the body. Animals carry different parasites that they may pass onto humans. Plus, poor hygiene also plays a big role.
Understanding Parasites and Their BehaviorParasites are organisms that live off a host, relying on them for nutrients and shelter. Human parasites include a range of organisms such as protozoa (like Giardia), helminths (such as tapeworms and roundworms), and external parasites like lice.
Their lifecycle often depends on factors such as environmental changes, the host’s immune system, and how many have noticed, even the lunar cycle.
While parasite infestations can go unnoticed for some time, they can lead to significant health issues, including gastrointestinal problems, fatigue, and weakened immune responses. Understanding how these organisms behave is crucial to preventing and managing infections.

Over 300 Chemicals Found in Babies’ Cord Blood [Podcast Episode #204].
The birth of a baby is a miraculous moment, yet recent research has shed light on a startling concern—more than 300 chemicals have been detected in babies’ cord blood and placenta at birth. This discovery highlights the fact that exposure to harmful chemicals begins much earlier than we previously thought.
From conception through pregnancy, toxins can pass from the mother to the fetus, raising concerns about their potential long-term effects on child development and health.
This episode will delve into the sources of these chemicals, their potential effects on babies, and how you can reduce exposure during pregnancy.
The Shocking Truth: What’s in Cord Blood?Cord blood is a rich source of stem cells which help to regulate the immune system. Their responses shown in blood screening can be indicators of underlying coinfections of autism such as Lyme, mold, and strep.
These infections are often undetected in many traditional blood tests, but it can also contain toxic chemicals and environmental pollutants.
Studies, including the Environmental Working Group (EWG) investigation, have found traces of heavy metals, flame retardants, pesticides, and industrial compounds in the umbilical cord blood of newborns.
Out of the hundreds of chemicals detected, some include:– Lead: A potent neurotoxin linked to developmental delays and cognitive issues.
– Mercury: Found in fish and industrial pollutants, it can affect brain development.
– Bisphenol A (BPA): Used in plastics, BPA has been associated with hormone disruption.
– Phthalates: Common in plastics and personal care products, they can disrupt the endocrine system.
– Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs): Used in flame retardants, these chemicals can harm brain and thyroid development.
The fact that these chemicals are present in cord blood is alarming because it indicates that a fetus is exposed to these substances during critical periods of development...

This episode is designed to resonate with parents by addressing common barriers to action, such as fear, confusion, and overwhelm, while also offering solutions that empower them to take action for their child’s recovery.
As a parent of a child with autism, you’re no stranger to the challenges of daily routines, therapy sessions, and creating an environment where your child can thrive.
However, even with the best intentions, procrastination can creep in, especially when implementing critical steps toward your child’s recovery.
Today, we’ll explore why parents may delay taking action, how overwhelm can lead to procrastination and affect progress, and, most importantly, how to overcome it to ensure the best outcomes for your child.
Why Do Parents Procrastinate in Implementing Recovery Steps?
Raising a child with autism often feels overwhelming, and for parents, it’s common to experience moments of doubt, fear, or exhaustion. Here are some key reasons why procrastination may happen:
Fear of Failure: The fear of not doing enough, or not doing things “right,” can be paralyzing. Parents may delay starting a new therapy or intervention because they worry about whether it will work.Lack of Time or Energy: Managing a household, work, and other responsibilities can drain your energy. The extra tasks associated with autism recovery, such as therapy appointments, dietary adjustments, or implementing behavioral strategies, may feel daunting.Uncertainty or Confusion: With so much conflicting information online, it can be hard to know which steps to take first. When parents feel unsure about which approach is best for their child, it’s easy to delay making a decision.Emotional Overwhelm: After an Autism diagnosis, it’s common for parents to experience a range of emotions, including sadness, frustration, or anxiety. These emotions can sometimes make it difficult to take action, even when you know what needs to be done.How Procrastination Affects Your Child’s Progress
Procrastination can have a significant impact on your child’s progress. Early intervention is crucial for children with autism. The earlier you implement strategies, and educational plans, the better the long-term outcomes for your child. Delaying important steps could slow down your child’s development and create additional challenges in the future.
In addition, procrastination can lead to stress and guilt for parents, which may further delay action. It becomes a vicious cycle—feeling overwhelmed, avoiding tasks, then feeling even more overwhelmed by the mounting to-do list...

We’re told a child cannot recover from autism, Right? Wrong!
When parents first receive an autism diagnosis for our child, we often hear statements like, “Your child will never fully recover,” or “Your child will never speak,” or “There’s no cure for autism.”
While for some an autism diagnosis will remain along with some of their symptoms, We also know that these statements are not true. Children all over the world are recovering from their symptoms of autism in all levels of recovery.
My own son is fully recovered from his symptoms, even when I was told it wasn’t possible. I’ve helped parents worldwide get results for their kids too.
One mom I helped said she was told that her son would “NEVER” speak, but today she says he is speaking ‘endlessly’.
Many parents hold onto the belief that their children can make significant strides in their development, often achieving levels of independence and success that defy early expectations. If you’re one of those parents, then this podcast is for you. You refuse to accept limitations and believe in your child’s potential for recovery.
One of the most dangerous things you can do is allow yourself to be alone on this journey. It is hard and sometimes even scary.
You don’t have to do this alone. It is so important to have a support system and a community of like-minded parents who “get it”! They’re living it too and know what it’s like. It makes all the difference.
Understanding the Spectrum of Autism RecoveryThe concept of “recovery” in autism is complex and varies from child to child. For some, recovery might mean gaining the ability to communicate effectively or perform daily tasks independently. For others, it might mean overcoming sensory sensitivities or developing social relationships.
Recovery does not necessarily imply the complete elimination of autism traits but rather a significant improvement in the quality of life and functional abilities. Kevin is one of these stories.
Three years ago Kevin was thirteen years old but still biting and kicking kids at school in fear and anxiousness that was debilitation for him, and others. Now, just three years later, with my help, Kevin is now calm, happy, and the leader in his summer youth camp. His mom, Mary, shared Kevin’s story of transformation in podcast episode #182.

What is low vagal tone and why have studies linked it to people with autism spectrum disorders? Learn 5 ways you can easily stimulate the vagus nerve at home, and how it can help both you and your child to improve Digestion, Calming, and Overall Better Health.
The vagus nerve is the longest cranial nerve in the body branching out from the brain to different areas of the body. It not only regulates gut physiology, but is also involved in controlling the cardiovascular, respiratory, immune, digestive, and endocrine systems. It has a tremendous connection with our ability to stay calm. This is because the vagus nerve is intimately connected with the parasympathetic nervous system. Children with autism commonly display symptoms of vagus nerve dysregulation.
Resetting the vagus nerve can help to create what is called vagal calm in the body. The vagus nerve is important to address at the beginning of any detoxification protocol since detoxifying is an additional stressor. The vagus nerve may need to be reset to optimize the autonomous nervous system to eliminate inappropriate fear responses, whether fight or flight, or an immobility shutdown response. This is commonly seen in symptoms such as heart arrhythmias.
Neurodegeneration of the vagus nerve comes from intestinal disorders, environmental toxic exposure, coinfections, inflammation, or any physical or emotional trauma that cause continual stress on the body. The vagus nerve can get stuck in the fight or flight response and create anxiety-like behaviors, as well as depressive ones. It also has to do with our ability to connect to others. This will be discussed a bit later...

Overcoming Confusion and Misinformation in Meeting the Needs of Children on the Spectrum
While I’m used to guiding health-minded audiences deep down the Rabbit-Hole of water topics, today’s discussion with Karen will be light on science and heavy on practicality. It aims to explain the challenging path for families who are intent on providing the safest and healthiest water for children on the Autism Spectrum and other Special Needs.
Choosing water for consumption (drinking, beverages and food preparation) and water for bathing water for your family is daunting task because of the minefield of misinformation and hype that is associated with suppliers of water treatment for consumers. You cannot trust the Internet, your local water dealer, big-box stores or persuasive TV promotions. It is unconscionable and embarrassing to me – someone who spent the past 50+ years in the water industry that it has has not kept up with the current state of water contaminants AND the growing assaults on the declining state of health of humanity. Based on decades of observing homeowner’s selection of water treatment technology, I conclude that more than 80-90% purchase and install inadequate systems for their and their children’s health needs.
Introduction
The human body is 50% to over 90% water by weight depending on the stage of life. Not too long ago it was revealed that if we were to segregate all the types of molecules that make up the body, H2O would amount to 99% of them!
An adult body contains roughly 40 liters of functional water derived from more than a billion years of evolution in the sea. No other single factor had such a profound influence on the animal kingdom’s biological design and function.
There are two primary compartments in the body: The Extracellular fluid (ECF) and the Intracellular Fluid.
So, our 50+ trillion cells are floating in the Extracellular fluid (the Terrain) and contained within them is the Intracellular fluid where all the action is. It is the biochemical quality of the Terrain that governs overall health. Virtually all the great physiologists over the past 2 centuries agree one central concept – “The Terrain Is Everything”
Understanding healthy hydration and how to maintain it
Maintaining proper hydration is not only about consuming enough water. In fact, consuming an excessive amount of water can interfere with optimal hydration. Many factors can jeopardize the body’s ability to maintain healthy hydration (illness, diarrhea, excessive work or exercise in hot climates, an imbalance in the quantity and variety of electrolytes).
Key indicators of dehydration are varied and can include
Lightheadedness or dizzy feelingDry mouth and tongue and cracked lipsLess frequent need to urinateMuscle crampsThirstFrequent headachesFatigue or drowsinessUrine has a darker colorEyes more sunken than usualThe key physiological measure in achieving proper hydration is having sufficient water inside our cells – referred to as intracellular water.
Sufficient pure water with the proper quantity and mix of electrolytes is key to achieving optimal hydration. A very rough daily guideline for those in good health is to consume – as water or sugar-free beverages (e.g. coffee, tea, vegetable juices, etc.)...

What’s easier to follow and get results faster, a zig zag or a straight line? Of course, it’s a straight line.
In our autism recovery journeys, we parents often zig zag around looking for answers from various practitioners and therapists, internet searches, and purchasing random supplements we’ve heard about, but don’t know how to use properly.
Detoxification, while essential for health and recovery, can be challenging. Here are strategies to stabilize during this process for a smoother journey and better outcomes in autism recovery.
Seek Guidance From Someone Who Has Knowledge about the Specifics of AutismAfter a decade of research and a lot of implementation to find what worked, today my son’s symptoms of autism are gone. This is after the so-called ‘experts’ told me it wasn’t possible.
Having a guide that has personally lived through it with success is important too.
Have a specific plan that is unique to autismThere are very unique issues and sensitivities involved in autism recovery. We cannot assume that every professional knows what to do. In fact, on my own autism journey with my son I found doctors didn’t really know what to do so I began researching on my own...

Karen Thomas of Naturally Recovering Autism interviews Zen Honeycutt from Moms Across America on Aluminum, Arsenic, Cadmium, Lead, and Mercury Found in Baby Formula.
Catalyzed by the FDA’s failure to regulate heavy metals in baby formula, a coalition of consumer advocacy groups commissions testing of 20 different brands. Groups urge the FDA and legislators to protect infants from toxic exposure.
Severe health risks posed by these toxic metals include developmental delays, cancer, kidney damage, and neurocognitive difficulties.
A coalition of consumer advocacy groups, including Moms Across America, GMOScience, and The New MDS, has uncovered alarming levels of toxic metals in baby formula. Testing of 20 popular brands revealed that 100% of samples contained aluminum and lead, with over half also testing positive for arsenic, mercury, and cadmium. Disturbingly, six formulas contained all five metals in both samples.
Notably, aluminum levels in one goat’s milk formula were up to 40,000 times higher than other metals tested, far exceeding FDA safety limits. Mercury and cadmium levels in several samples also surpassed allowable limits in drinking water.
Despite the FDA’s “Closer to Zero” initiative launched in 2021, no substantial regulatory limits have been set, leaving babies vulnerable. Recent efforts, including the Baby Food Safety Act of 2024, which was announced by Congress on May 9, one week after the heads of Moms Across America and GMOScience met with lawmakers and the FDA in D.C. to deliver the results of the baby formula testing, aim to give the FDA authority to regulate and enforce limits on levels of heavy metals found in baby food and potentially formula.
Talk points in this podcast:Alarming rates of toxic metals when testing 20 different baby formula brands.
100% of the 40 samples tested contained aluminum and lead.57% of the samples tested positive for arsenic, 55% for mercury, and 35% for cadmium.Six of the 20 formulas were positive for all five toxic metals in both samples.At 41,000 ppb, aluminum levels in a goat’s milk baby formula were 4000 – 40,000x higher than other metals in the formulas tested and exceed limits set by the FDA for maximum safety level of aluminum for a preemie.Levels of mercury in four samples measured above the limit allowed by the FDA in drinking water.Levels of cadmium in both samples of one formula were nearly twice the level allowed in drinking water.The is heightened vulnerability of infants due to their small bodies and rapid cellular growth...Click Here or Click the link below for more details!

It’s common in children, and adults, with autism to have speech issues. This can be a difficulty speaking clearly all the way to completely non-verbal, at any age.
Many symptoms come from various toxins, pathogens and coinfections. We begin with healing the gut and diet, but there is so much more involved. In my last podcast episode We discussed the toxicity of aluminum. In studies it has been noted that speech is one of the symptoms associated with speech issues of all kinds.
It’s never just one thing. Speech is helped by all of it, but for best results the complete A-Z approach must be done. As underlying common symptoms of speech issues with autism I find there are three issues that are an absolute must to be covered properly for best results.
Speech issues are caused by many things, but the top three I’ve found in my research and experience are:
Aluminum Viruses PANS AluminumHow Do We Get Aluminum Exposure?
Aluminum is prevalent in our society in the air, soil/food, water, cookware, and in the health care products most people use daily such as deodorants, fragrances, lotions, make-up, and so much more. It is contained in antacids, over the counter supplements, and medications.
Almost 75% of all adjuvant-based medical treatments include aluminum salts.

Candida is very tricky to work with so you need to know many of the contributing factors and why it is so hard to get rid of. It’s never just one thing, and prsistency is key.
Candida Induced Alcohol PoisoningCandida requires sugar as food. This can come in the source of any chemical that ends in “ose” such as glucose, fructose, or sucrose. Carbohydrates such as bread and pasta are also converted by the body into sugars that act as another food source for the yeast. When glucose (from sugars and carbohydrates) is digested by Candida, it creates the alcoholic chemical ethanol and its extremely toxic byproduct, acetaldehyde.
Candida and this alcohol, acetaldehyde, are transferred via the placenta to the developing fetus and are capable of doing harm during development. After birth, the baby continues to receive alcohol through the mother’s breast milk.
Alcohol can cause malnutrition by preventing the body from digesting proteins. Many liquid herbal tinctures contain alcohol. Be sure supplements are alcohol free.
Associated problems from alcohol:
Aggressive and violent behavior. Alcohol causes damage to areas of the brain that can increase aggressive behavior to violent behavior.AnxietyLethargyImpaired coordination, speech, and memory loss.Liver damage causing a lowered ability of the body’s detoxification processes.Damage to the intestinal lining reducing the ability for proper digestion and absorption of nutrients.Inability of the hormones released by the thyroid to become activated. NOTE: The thyroid may produce an acceptable lab test because it is releasing the proper hormones. The problem is that, once released, the hormones cannot do their jobs due to acetaldehyde inhibiting the working sites needed by those hormones.Malabsorption and malnutrition due to inhibition of pancreatic enzymes and reduced ability for the stomach to produce hydrochloric acid...Click Here or Click the link below for more details!

Children on the autism spectrum usually have both candida and heavy metal toxicity. The essential candida diet where we starve out the bad bacteria by removing the bad processed carbohydrates and excess sugars that they thrive on ensures a better outcome.
However, it is lesser know that mercury will slow down the removal of candida. Mercury inhibits the body’s natural ability to fight off excess candida so it is imperative to not only do a proactive diet and candida protocol, but this must include heavy metal detoxification.
Mercury is candida’s friend. It’s likely that one reason why candida can be so challenging to get rid of is because there is still mercury in the system. I have found that if we get rid of the mercury, candida seems to go away more easily, but first we must heal and strengthen the gut. The toxins released from heavy metals and fungus lower the body’s ability to turn the food we eat into energy.
With conventional sulfur containing heavy metal chelating methods, such as DMSA, one must exercise caution to be sure the liver is supported first and the gut has more balance prior. Sulfur may likely disturb the already weak GI tract. These drugs also deplete the body further of important minerals and allow for reabsorption of the toxins while it’s being excreted.
Mercury is known to inhibit the human body’s ability to kill Candida. It does this by preventing a type of white blood cell called neutrophils from killing the Candida fungus. These cells normally destroy microorganisms and foreign matter in the blood.
Some common sources of mercury come from our environment. The air we breathe, the food we eat and the water we drink all contain heavy metals. Be sure you have a high quality water filter like the one here.
Additionally, mercury amalgam dental fillings are a strong source of toxicity and the amalgams a mother has during pregnancy leak mercury into her system which is passed in utero to the growing fetus so the child can be born with mercury toxicity...
