Learn about the connection between inflammation and autism in this audio interview of Maria Rickert Hong by Lynette Louise, host of “A New Spin on Autism”.
THE CONNECTION BETWEEN AUTISM AND INFLAMMATION
FLAME RETARDANTS DECREASE NEUROLOGICAL FUNCTION
Brominated flame retardants are neurotoxic and are linked to neurodevelopmental disorders like autism, ADHD and SPD.
“This study is one of few studies and so far the largest one investigating the neurobehavioral effects of brominated flame retardants in humans.
Consistently with experimental animal data, PBDE (flame retardant) exposure was associated with changes in the motor function and the serum levels of the thyroid hormones.” Read more…

Hypothyroidism and Autism
Hypothyroidism and autism: 70-80% of children with autism, developmental delays, ADHD, SPD, PDD-NOS are hypothyroid. Dr. Raphael Kellman, a holistic endocrinologist, says that the typical TSH test misses an underactive thyroid. Instead, he recommends a TRH test. Watch the video…
AUTISM AND ANEMIA
Autistic children under the age of 6 tend to be more anemic than their older counterparts. This may have something to do malabsorption and a less-mature gastrointestinal tract. Read more…

Recovery from autism is possible. Most, if not all, cases have gut dysbiosis, which is fed by the Standard American Diet (SAD) full of sugar and processed foods.
There is no safe level of mercury, and it causes neurological damage, such as autism, PDD-NOS, ADHD, developmental delays and sensory processing disorder.
While this article credits behavioral therapy for 10% of autistic children losing their diagnosis, many more are being recovered with a biomedical approach that treats autism as a whole-body condition, not just a psychological diagnosis.
