There can be no question that Vitamin D deficiency is a major factor that must be addressed whenever children are failing to thrive!
Do not fail to read Dr. Cannell’s comments about this case report at the bottom of this report – this is NOT JUST ABOUT AUTISM – this applies to everyone. How much Vitamin D do we need to get levels up in the ideal range?
“ …your pediatrician knows little about Vitamin D other than what committees tell him; your decision to ignore his advice probably saved your son’s brain from further injury” (excerpt of Dr. Cannell’s comments) Continued

Other considerations in autism are mitochondrial and nuclear defects.

“Of the 282 individuals with ASD, 14 (10 males and 4 females) met the modified Walker diagnostic criteria for mitochondrial disease. These individuals tested negative on chromosome microarray analysis, fragile X syndrome, Angelman syndrome, and Rett syndrome, among other tests. Neurological characteristics accompanying their ASD included ataxia, dystonia, seizure disorder, and developmental delay. All 14 demonstrated molecular or biochemical problems.”

And don’t forget that the latest information on Autism will be presented at tomorrow’s conference, which will be of special importance for chiropractors. Continued

Dr Joe Pizzorno, as the former Dean of the John Bastyr School of Naturopathic Medicine, still does a great job of continuing to educate. Read more about how iodized salt may be very unstable in humid environment.

I cannot say it more succinctly than he has here!  Get IODINE into patients! Continued

You really can lower blood pressure with this device, The Zona Plus, and we still have no reports of anyone having a fatal heart attack while on Beyond Chelation Improved. Looks like a perfect combination,  but when there is a history of prior blood clots, Boluoke  should be added at least for a time. Continued

Read below for new developments with Vitamin D and Multiple Sclerosis. Let’s reduce the incidence of MS by making sure Vitamin D levels are supplemented vigorously.

Dear Reader,

You don’t hear much about multiple sclerosis — mostly because it’s a disease that continues to stump doctors and researchers. While there are a handful of treatments that can alleviate some of the symptoms, there’s no cure for it. But last month, researchers from the UK and Canada did even better. They made a discovery that may prevent it from occurring in the first place. Continued

Alzheimer’s Disease, MS, Autism, Cancer, Heart Disease, Diabetes… If we neutralize and remove the toxins in our bodies, while supplying ourselves with needed nutrients, we will see a world free of most degenerative diseases!

Dr. Garry F. Gordon will present ‘TOXIN MAGNET: The New Zeolite-Based Detox Program You Need To Get Healthy’ at the 37th annual Cancer Control Society Convention, on Saturday Sept 5th, 2009 at the Sheraton Universal Hotel, Universal City, CA (Los Angeles area).

As our environment becomes increasingly toxic,  a safe, effective and convenient ‘daily’ treatment for lead, mercury, and other toxins, is now an essential part of any effective anti-aging and health promoting program.
Dr. Gordon’s “Toxin Magnet” powerpoint presentation will be available on the Gordon Research Institute website at www.gordonresearch.com.  A webinar will soon be announced on that site for those who are unable to attend this conference. For additional information, use the search feature and type in either the word ‘Cancer’ or ‘Kobayashi’,  for life-saving information about a proven program that eliminated cancer for over 10 years, for more than 10,000 patients!

Mark Hyman MD has done an excellent job at the 13th Annual Functional Medicine Conference of organizing thoughts about the EFFECTS of environmental and exogenous chemicals on our health, and why blood testing underestimates the extent of the problem.

I draw your attention to a few paragraphs from his extensive presentation, which discusses some of the impact of chemicals and toxins on our health.

LIVING IN A SEA OF TOXINS: THE PROBLEM

Why should we worry about toxins unless we work with toxic chemicals or spray pesticides for a living? Isn’t exposure minimal? Unfortunately, risks of exposure are substantial, pose significant public health risks, and can no longer be ignored. Continued

As noted in the article below: “children and adolescents who may face the greatest risks for vitamin and mineral deficiencies are those that actually take supplements less. Children in this group include those with less healthy nutrition and activity patterns, greater obesity, lower income, lower food security, poorer health…”

 The truth is that in today’s nutritionally void and polluted world, children and adolescents who do not take supplements face greater health risks than those who do. If you want your child to be healthier and more active, your child needs to be in the group taking supplements.
