Books:
Amalgam Illness, Diagnosis and Treatment by Andrew Hall Cutler, PhD This book is a great resource for chelation. Cutler is a PhD chemist who successfully treated himself and his wife for their symptoms of amalgam illness. He shares his research and findings in his book. Cutler’s low/frequent dose protocol is the safest, most effective chelation protocol I have seen out there. He details different types of toxicity and how to use DMSA and alpha lipoic acid to remove toxic metals and recover. Because this book is directed more to assisting adults with chelation, I would recommend joining online support groups that are dedicated to helping parents safely implement this protocol.
Nourishing Hope for Autism by Julie Matthews, CNC Nourishing Hope is packed with information, everything you need to know from why autism occurs to what you can do to help your child. Julie details diets, supplements and helps trouble-shoot specific problems. She substantiates her findings with numerous research studies. This is a great resource that I refer to again and again.
A Child’s Journey Out of Autism by Leeann Whiffen Leeann shares a great story of triumph and courage. Through this book, Leeann documents her experience with her son from birth to recovery and outlines what she did to help him, through implementing ABA and seeking help from a biomedical doctor. Her experiences will be familiar to those of you who are going through this journey. This book gave me a lot of things to think about and also gave me the courage to try chelation with my own son. It also reminded me that I am not alone and to never give up.
Children with Starving Brains by Jaquelyn McCandless, MD This is the first book I read after my son was diagnosed. At first I had trouble believing everything she talks about, but after all these months of constant reading and research, I have come around and realized that the picture McCandless paints is pretty accurate. I also trust those with children or grandchildren on the spectrum because they have the same vested interest that we do and they tend to have better, more accurate information.
Enzymes for Autism and Other Neurological Conditions by Karen L. DeFelice, MS Karen does a great job researching different studies on enzymes and the other dysautonomias for they are used. She does a great job drawing parallels to Parkinson’s, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia and MS. There is a lot of great information on digestion and the GI issues our kids face. This was a great resource, easy to read and understand.
Websites:
This is such a great resource! You can search specific areas of interest and look at all sorts of presentation slides. I have found this site to be such a wealth of information. The presentations at the conferences are full of new research, some not even published yet! This is a must if you need to know more about the underlying conditions in autism. It also contains personal stories of hope and recovery. Along with Generation Rescue, they hold an annual conference in the Chicago area, in May.
Although this site is not as comprehensive as Autism One, it is definitely worth a visit. There is vaccine info and general info as well as a list of Generation Rescue Angels, whom you can contact for further information and advice from parents who have been or are currently on the road to recovery.
TACA has good info on what to do when newly diagnosed, mentors, a lot of events and local chapters.
This is Autism Research Institutes website, they are the force behind DAN! or Defeat Autism Now and its practitioners. DAN! has been around for over 30 years; this site is definitely worth a look and has some great articles. I also included a link to their parental ratings table where throughout the years parents have rated which biomedical interventions have been most successful.
This site is new and it was started by Lorrin’s mom. I met Lorrin’s mom at the Autism One/ Generation Rescue Conference. To say Lorrin had an adverse reaction to her one and only vaccine, the DPT would be an understatement. Lorrin had what we now know of as a “hot lot” of the DPT where over 50 children who received that lot number died soon thereafter. After Lorrin’s DPT she never had a day without a seizure. She never walked, or talked and needed a trach tube to help her breathe. Lorrin was not expected to live for long after her DPT, but in her 15 years of life she managed to touch the lives of so many. This is her story and the story of other “adverse reactions” to vaccination.
Articles:
This is a great article by Dr. Amy Yasko, here she gets into the basics of proteins and viruses and shows how vaccine injury can occur in our kids. I truly admire Dr. Yasko’s research in the field of autism and her impressive background.
This is a great article on metallothionein theory and an overview of detoxification.
Dr. Schwartz gives a great overview of the medical problems associated with autism. Dr. Schwartz also gets into metallothionein theory.
For some reason when I read this article, I had an “ah-ha” moment, although I think the above articles are better overviews. I think Dr. Vickery is spot-on, my only issue is that I think calling autism a protein deficiency may imply that the kids don’t eat enough dietary protein, where it’s more that they are unable to build these large proteins such as metallothionein.
Dr. Mary Megson explains the G-alpha protein defect found in ASD kids, specifically which vaccines can cause this and her recommendations to fix it. I saw this defect in my own son emerge at around 18 months. The biggest indicator is the sideways glancing, where the child looks at objects out of the corner of his eyes, also described as visual tracking of objects or lines of objects.
There are a lot of good articles on Terrain Theory vs. Germ Theory, but this is a good overview and a good place to start to understand what is going on when we get sick. Autism moms already know it all starts with the gut! I think it’s worth looking into Bernard and Bechamp’s Terrain Theory. It has served me well, and has completely revised my way of thinking!
Dr. Blaylock gives a great overview of the brain and expands on the potential for harm caused by vaccines.
This article is an example of great investigative journalism and an eye opener into the history of the polio vaccine. The author goes back in time and gives the facts that surround the disaster of the 1950’s - the polio vaccine.
David Kirby gives a lot of good information on the autism/vaccine debate and provides updates on current Vaccine Court rulings.
