Why is there such an epidemic of autism, ADHD, allergies, asthma, autoimmune diseases and more in our children today?
Here’s my interview with Beth Lambert is the author of “A Compromised Generation” and Executive Director and co-founder of Epidemic Answers.
If you haven’t read the book, here’s the chance for you to get an overview of the perfect storm that’s causing the epidemic of childhood illnesses today.
34% of American children have a chronic disease or disorder like autism, ADHD, allergies, asthma, autoimmune disease, SPD, OCD, developmental delays, learning disabilities and more.
When the number of obese children is included, the number rises to 52%. Why is this the “new normal”?

Listen in to my fun interview with Curt Linderman of Linderman Unleashed, a NaturalNews Radio show.
We talk about autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorder, schizophrenia, allergies, asthma, autoimmune disease, heavy metals, gut dysbiosis, methylation, toxicity, diabetes, Epidemic Answers, GMO foods and the Standard American Diet.
Many studies link gut dysbiosis to the development of autoimmune conditions.
“The gastrointestinal immune system and its loss of function may be the pivotal factor in autoimmune development. Another question begs: how did GI function become compromised, and what other factors are at play?” Read more…

Triclosan in cosmetics and personal care products can increase allergy risk.
“The study found that triclosan levels measured in urine were associated with elevated levels of Immunoglobulin E (IgE) and rhinitis (blocked nose/hay fever) in 10 year-olds.” Read more…

This is one of my favorite recovery stories, as it shows how powerful food can be in recovering from an extremely debilitating chronic illness like multiple sclerosis.
A gluten-free diet may be all that’s needed to eliminate signs and symptoms of type I diabetes.
“An autoimmune reaction can occur in the presence of gluten, as well as other proteins that the immune system reads as gluten.
Each person with an autoimmune disorder will react uniquely to different foods.” Read more…

When I was a kid, you couldn’t get me to come inside. I was outside playing in the woods behind our house, climbing trees, building forts and making “sukiyaki” out of worms and dirt. And I HATED taking a bath.
My mom used to call me “Dirt-It” and tell me that potatoes would grow behind my ears because I never washed there.
These days, with the lure of video games and smart tablets, it’s hard to get my kids to go outside unless I go with them on a hike. And my kids aren’t the exception.
Unfortunately, this trend, coupled with the fact that our houses may be TOO clean, may be contributing to growing rates of allergies, asthma, autism, ADHD and autoimmune diseases; this is known as the “hygiene hypothesis”.
“This theory believes that a lack of early childhood exposure to germs increases the chance for allergic diseases. Over-sanitization might suppress the natural development of the immune system”, concludes this study in Science Daily, which found that greater rates of peanut allergy are found in families with higher economic status.
In addition, scientists have recently discovered that certain microbes in the dirt act as natural antidepressants.
This blog post from Gardening Know How says that “Mycobacterium vaccae is the substance under study and has indeed been found to mirror the effect on neurons that drugs like Prozac provide. The bacterium is found in soil and may stimulate serotonin production, which makes you relaxed and happier.”
So there. I really was happy to be playing in the dirt!
