This article makes me really sad. I wonder if they took one sample of blood, stool, hair or spit to see if there were any biomedical anomalies to treat. My nephew's onset of "Autism" (I use quotes because the diagnostic methodology for Autism is casual observation, followed by "I said so" by a doctor) was at about 24 months. His parents refused to accept the prognosis of long term care. They instead found a licensed MD who would take specimens from my nephew and treat any observed deviations from established norms with standard interventions. So what they found over the course of about 4-5 years was my nephew suffered from a massive yeast infection, pinholes in his intestines, heavy metal poisoning, and numerous food allergies. This is an incomplete list, but for every other anomaly they discovered in his blood, stool, etc. they treated it as any trained MD would, if they were looking.
My nephew was diagnosed as "indistinguishable from his peers" at around age 8. Aside from having to eat a rotating diet to avoid the development of new food allergies, he's a normal kid now. He has friends, talks normally, is running track and field for his sport. The only thing that seems a little off with him, he loves good strong bear hugs, and I'm always happy to oblige.
You can dismiss this account as anecdotal and I'm sure many will. What I can tell you, through community connections, we know hundreds of other families who have helped their children recover to varying degrees from Autism. It's not some secret cult of medicine either, it's just a new field of study. The NIH sought my nephew for study, along with hundreds of other children who have recovered from Autism.
- sevenfive_ 9y ago> heavy metal poisoning Actually I'm tempted to dismiss your account as complete quackery. Heavy metal poisoning is a common bugbear of quacks. What metal, and where did it come from?

A normal person will show some level of Mercury in their hair as we all have some exposure from environmental sources. This is thought by his doctor to be due to his poor ability to produce glutathione, which comes as a result of a genetic mutation, which was confirmed via genome sequencing. I don't care about the source of either, just that the tests ordered by the MD revealed their presence and employed chelation to remove them to normal levels.
- taneq 9y agoDoesn't it raise an eyebrow that this one kid had such a litany of rare diagnoses? Maybe one or two of those things, but all of them? I can't help wondering if the true diagnosis here should have been Munchausen syndrome by proxy (on the part of the parents) plus opportunism (on the part of the doctor).
- CodeWriter23 9y agoAs I mentioned above, our family has come to know hundreds of other families that have children experiencing some, all, or more of similar symptoms, and have achieved recovery using similar protocols.
- reitanqild 9y agoGreat! (Ok, some of these sounds weird to me but still I think it is great that he is now OK.) IMO the problem is for every licensed MD that actually cares and does everything they can to fix it there seems to be ten quacks wanting to sell therapy, juice, diets, books; you name it - they sell it. How can ordinary people know who is who?
