A genetic defect cannot be cured right now. Evan was obviously misdiagnosed. Metal toxicity has the same symptoms as autism. All of the above apply to metal toxicity, which I would test 1st before accepting the diagnosis of autism. But, real autism is not curable, although the symptoms can be mitigated. We've learned in the past few years that my brother, born in 1954, is on the spectrum. Autism would also explain my father's behavor (born in 1926). Without diagnosis or treatment, my &amp;nbsp;brother has managed to support his wife and 4 now-grown kids. But his life, and the lives of everyone around him would have been much happier if we had known then what we know now. Parents-do try the above, but know that autism is not the end of the world, even if it is not &amp;quot;cured&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;

We still hollered out the same information, but we spent YEARS gathering it as &amp;nbsp;well. &amp;nbsp;I will give her credit for speaking LOUD, as she is afforded the public persona to make a difference - but it does not diminish the many of us who have carried this same message for the last 15 years! &amp;nbsp;Thanks for the opportunity to be heard!&lt;/p&gt;

Well</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I'm interested to know if anyone has tried Dr. Klinghardt's protocol for ASD? &amp;nbsp;He's one of Dr. Mercola's faves and a long time expert in hg chelation among other things. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Interesting how Alzheimer's is soaring as well. &amp;nbsp;Mercury and aluminum from flu and other vaccines are routinely given to older adults (the vaccine schedule for seniors has been ramped up just as children's have) in addition to the burden from a mouth full of heavy metals and root canals that many older Americans have, toxic aluminum overload from antacids, deodorant, water, and cookware, hg pollution from coal burning, fluoride toxicity.....are these players in this scary epidemic?? &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Anyone looking for this and any other of the treatments used by Jenny McCarthy - check out DAN! - Defeat Autism Now - and look for a DAN! doctor. &amp;nbsp;otherwise, you will be speaking greek to your health care professional.Another option is an integrative physician - meaning they integrate convential and alternative practices. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also - Yahoo has several good groups - there is mercury and autism and for the GFCF diet. &amp;nbsp;If you go to gfcfdiet.com, you can sign up for the group.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We also need to be aware of the negative effects these giant utility towers which carry power lines have on one's health. &amp;nbsp;Some have attributed some of the blame for Autism, to these towers. &amp;nbsp;Along with cell phones, and cell phone towers, and of course cordless phones. &amp;nbsp;Studies indicate some of the same procedures can be used to successfully treat ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hopefully we will search for alternatives to the poisin and cut crowd, and realize that we do have a very big stake in our own health and well being. &amp;nbsp;We can allow &amp;quot;Big Pharma,&amp;quot; and their partners in crime to lead us around by the nose, or we can be proactive. &amp;nbsp;We can seek out the help of others and begin to think out of that box our Doctor's have put in.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mind you if I am in an accident, and suffer trauma yes take me to nearest &amp;quot;Trauma Center.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;Otherwise I will look for other means of recovery. &amp;nbsp;Because one thing I have learned in the past 10 years, is that the body is self healing, and if we treat said body properly, it will heal itself. &amp;nbsp;Again exercise, fresh air, sunshine, water, proper sleep, a good diet, and a good spiritual posture, goes further than any drug. &amp;nbsp;Add to that good friends, and time to play, and that is a good formula for a healthy you. &amp;nbsp;Happy living. &lt;/p&gt;

Now, I know I had it as a child. I remember the pain that resulted from looking into a person's eyes; and I experienced panic each time I was in a crowded place with my mom, for I couldn't recognize her face. I also suffered from dislexia; was so still in the crib that I was taken to the doctor when my head began to resemble a lollipop, etc. When 10 years old, I developed an unreal interest in electronics, that later caused a number of problems (insomnia, for example, when I couldn't get to sleep because I was designing circuits in my head all night long). Perhaps partly because I was so distant emotionally, I was beaten - daily, for some years of my childhood - and my back was always covered with scabs and dried blood.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regarding causes, I was born in the mid-'30s when all food was organic, vaccinations were few. However, we did drink pasteurized milk, and I did suffer from constipation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Having spent years specifically trying to asses research in psychology, I'm skeptical most research (read, for example, &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawthorne_effect"&gt;en.wikipedia.org/.../Hawthorne_effect&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; - in which ANY change in lighting, up or down, improved factory productivity); also anecdotal reports, testimonials (some still write of glowingly &amp;nbsp;of Stalin &amp;amp; Hitler, etc.).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After a number of &amp;quot;paranormal&amp;quot; experiences in the 1970s, I began to search for a better source of knowledge. In 1973, I joined Self-Realization Fellowship and began meditating a couple of hours per day - a practice that I continue. SRF also provided dietary recommendations, which I follow. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For knowledge, now I mainly try to improve my intuition, which I now consider to be an elusive, but highly reliable, source of information. I still suffer some from migraine headaches, grinding teeth, etc, but life is incomparably better than before. Meditation works!&lt;/p&gt;
