Solving the Autism Problems

I wrote a 3 page paper for the recent DAN conference in Cherry Hill NJ designed to helpparents do the research that is necessary to help their children. Unfortunately, toomany turn to their pediatrician or neurologist, finding out after too much money wasted

that they know too little to really help.

This paper is available at: http://drbate.com/Altherapy.doc. It lists many differenttherapies, and links to research them on the web. In most cases, after this research,most parents will know more than most pediatricians and/or neurologists. None ofthem had ever taken any classes in med school, and knew very little. (At the show, Isold 3 pediatricians and 1 neurologist my Neuroliminal Training program).

My understanding of the whole autism "thing" became clearer as well. I knew of all theproblems associated with improving autism cases, but hadn't associated them into asemblance of order. In many discussions with other health experts, my mind seemed to

clarify, and I realized that there actually is some of order to this.

1. First, there is the actual brain damage that separates autism from the ADD/ADHDcontinuum. Mercury, lead and aluminum are all part of the huge epidemic. Vaccines,lead toys, etc may be a major part, but our diets are also involved. The mineralpollution has increased on our planet to a degree unsuspected by most, and this hasmade a much larger percentage of people susceptible. Until these mineral toxins arechelated out, there is danger of more brain damage.

So, a major step with autism and all other "brain problems" has to be clearing the bodyof toxic minerals and other toxins.

This is not as simple as chelation for a few weeks. The traditional mineralmeasurements of blood, urine, and even hair are all based on amounts excreted, NOTon body amounts stored. How much is actually circulating in the blood to be excreteddepends on a balance between getting rid of the toxins, and poisoning the brain with theblood flow. The higher the level in the body, the closer to real brain damage.

Another factor that is overlooked is nutritional. If there is a low level of glutathioneand/or vitamin C, that are natural chelators, then the body does not release the toxinsinto the blood. Thus, blood, urine, and hair do not show actual levels at all, and itsoften thought that mineral toxicity is not an important consideration.

(Before any testing is done, I'd advise giving the child vitamin C up to near boweltolerance (just below diarrhea) for a week for either blood or urine testing, and a monthor more for hair analysis. This will make the testing much more accurate). Itsimportant that the way all minerals are measured is as a ratio between toxic andnormal amounts of nutritional minerals. These normal minerals are fairly accurateover a period of time, but the ratio may not be as the body cannot release from storagethose toxic ones.

2. Because of several factors, autistic (and many other children) develop "leaky gutsyndrome". These factors are:

1. Stress requires more vitamins (B and C) to handle it. As stress increases, sodoes this nutritional need, and in our "modern" world, nutrition is becoming less and

poorer.

2. As the need for more nutrition increases, the body tries to get by allowing "poorly"digested food particles into the body. The worlds of the gut and body are very differentand meant to be separate, and this condition allows way too much contact. Some moretoxic material gets thru.

Contamination by bacteria and viruses is only a part of the danger Amino acids shouldbe digested down to a few individual or simple combinations, but because of thisleaking, long strings of amino acids (peptides) are allowed to get into the blood. Thebrain mistakes these for "enemies", and develops a food allergy (sensitivity) to the food

that this string came from. (Two of the most allergenic foods are wheat and milk - thusthe gluten and casein free diet works well for many - actually the Caveman diet is evenbetter as it eliminates many more common allergenic foods. Find this athttp://drbate.com/Ref/pulse.html.

Also part of this downward spiral is yeast overgrowth in the gut that comes fromantibiotics (overused). This lowers the ability of the gut to digest, and contributes to theleaky gut syndrome, causing even more food allergies.

3. This causing of more allergies now results in even more stress as stresses areadditive. More nutrition required, but less gotten - a vicious downward spiral indeed.

So, it is necessary to go after the allergies, and solve them. (These food allergies areclassified by MD's as "sensitivities", but they do the same things as true allergies.)

The basic cause of virtually all "mental disease" is stress, and unknown (to the person)allergies are the most common cause of unknown stress.(added to the stress of living).If this allergy is solved, the person is able to solve the "normal" life stresses. For someas yet unknown reason, raising the SMR brain wave amplitude solves most of theseallergies, and even some trueallergies as well as the sensitivities.

That's where my Neuroliminal Training CD's come in. They do this - gradually solvethese allergies, and gradually lower the requirement for more nutrition to handle thatstress. By adding the increase in brain blood, this process is probably speeded up.(We know that Hyperbaric works, so does this.)

I have received dozens of anecdotal reports of solved allergies, even environmentalones such as ragweed hay fever, peanuts causing rheumatoid arthritis, etc.

At the conference, I featured a display of both the Autism and the SMR Plus CD's. I gotmany questions "What's the difference?" It's simple. With attention as a major problem,then lowering of the Theta brain waves is done. The NASA research in the 90s showedclearly that lowering Theta definitely increased concentration and attention. (But, with

no "attention" problems, lowering Theta may also lower very strong creative or artisticability. With the ADD-Autism continuum, it's more important to have the concentrationability to become closer to "normal living". With a depressed artist, not so good, thusthe SMR Plus which does not affect Theta.

Therefore, I would recommend using the NT therapy as soon as possible, and at anyage from infancy up. (It goes directly to the unconscious, and is effective from birth up itseems.) Then toxic testing and chelation (vitamin C is the cheapest and better forhealth that any other). Then, probiotics for yeast problems, and better supplements fornutritional requirements to solve the leaky gut.

One child (of a set of twins) went from an animalistic, non verbal 3 year old girl to aquite normal using Neurofeedback. It took two years, but it worked. Unfortunately,NFB is so expensive and difficult that few clinicians will even consider it. NT does itvery well, and is affordable.
