Preparation for Zoom call July 7, 2-3pm

Details for the Tuesday, July 7 Zoom call

Call Schedule

2:00pm to 3:00pm Tuesday, July 7

A 20 minute presentation on the key factors and how to assess and treat your child for these factors, followed by an open Q and A.

On Tuesday morning I will send out the Zoom call link. The call title is "Health Options."

Some ideas to keep in mind are:

1. Addressing Epigenetics and Total Load are central to resolving the factors important for your child’s health.

2. A disease or syndrome that grows at the rate of ASD, 2000% (between 1990-2015), cannot, by definition, be a genetic disease. Genetic mutations do not occur at that rate.

3. About 25% of the increase in ASD over the last 30 years can be explained by expanded access to care and changes in diagnostic criteria.

Epigenetics is described as anything that changes the way a gene works. What this means is that how a gene functions is determined by factors external to the "hardwired" DNA genetic code. Identifying and resolving these factors is an essential step in creating a plan for your child.

The “Total Load of Autism” theory was developed by Patricia Lemer and includes all of the known factors that can compromise a child’s health. A plan must include a sufficient number of components of your child's total load to create a successful recovery.

After the call

Following the July 7 call you will receive two documents: “Everyday Epigenetics for Children” and “Everyday Epigenetics for Adults.” These documents were developed by Patricia Lemer and Martha Herbert. Patricia Lemer co-founded the Developmental Delay Registry and has written several books on Autism, with the most recent being “Outsmarting Autism.” Martha Herbert is a widely published physician and pediatric neurologist at Massachusetts General Hospital, and assistant professor at Harvard Medical School. These two leaders collaborated on these epigenetics checklists and have authorized my use of these resources.

For two weeks after the call you can also schedule a free 10 minute phone call with me to review outstanding questions.

If you would like to submit questions prior to the call please use the contact link below.

Issues of importance

Nutritional deficiencies

Toxins

Unresolved infections

Food reactions/sensitivities

Structural imbalances

Environmental triggers

Effects of Issues of Importance

Toxins will deplete many of the key nutrients needed for brain development and repair.

Infections will increase the damage from toxins and toxins will increase susceptibility to infections. Toxins alone have been shown to increase inflammation in the nervous system, reduce the brain's defense mechanisms, and deplete nutrients needed for nervous system integrity.

"Hidden" food sensitivities or allergies can create inflammation, which can increase the damage from both toxins and infections.

Toxins can come from food, air, and water. The biggest concerns for brain health are:

FOOD

Glyphosate (GMO crops)

Dyes and chemical additives in processed foods

Soil depletion in non-processed foods

WATER

Mercury, arsenic and aluminum

Over consumption of fluoride

Over exposure to chloride and related compounds

AIR

Mold and bacteria

RF (wireless sources)

OVERIEW OF AUTONOMIC RESPONSE TESTING

Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D., co-developed Autonomic Response Testing (ART), a form of muscle testing or kinesiology, which measures stress responses in the body and nervous system. ART is an extremely accurate, elegant, sophisticated, quick, reliable and comprehensive diagnostic system that is the leading bio-energetic technique in Europe today. ART is the only type of muscle testing that can measure the biophotonic field of a patient, establish a diagnosis and prescribe treatment simultaneously.

Fritz-Albert Popp, a leading European physicist, showed that the bio-photon field surrounding the physical body is the central regulating agency of all metabolic processes. Our cells create a bio-photon field around us, which, in turn, regulates our metabolic enzymes (chemistry of physiology). Any stress at the cellular level creates a disturbance in signals in the autonomic nervous system, which are measurable as distortions in the electromagnetic field around the body. Popp’s discovery is the basis for ART.

ART neatly lays out the pieces of the puzzle. Practitioners can then use lab work to confirm and back up findings. There are several peer-reviewed published validation studies showing correlation of findings from ART with lab analysis.
