ADRENAL SUPPRESSION IN CHILDREN WITH ASTHMA
“Two-thirds of children on corticosteroids may have hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis dysfunction. In one-third, central function had recovered but adrenal suppression persisted.” Read more…

FOOD FIGHT FRIDAY INTERVIEW WITH LINDERMAN UNLEASHED
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.

GUT DYSBIOSIS AND AUTOIMMUNE CONDITIONS
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 INCREASES ALLERGY RISK
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…

EVEN ONE TREATMENT WITH ANTIBIOTICS CAN DISRUPT A BABY’S IMMUNE SYSTEM
The diversity of GI flora in infants remained diminished 8 weeks after antibiotic treatment.
This study demonstrates the negative effects of short-term antibiotic treatment on the beneficial gut bacteria populations in infants. Read more…

LIGHT AT NIGHT LINKED TO DEPRESSION AND LEARNING DISABILITIES
Exposure to light at night is linked to depression and learning disabilities. I recommend putting children to bed as early as possible, and if it is dark, keeping the lights as dim as possible. Read more…

ALZHEIMER’S IS TYPE 3 DIABETES
Alzheimer’s is type 3 diabetes. “Alzheimer’s is a process by which excess amyloid plaque builds up in the brain, compromising brain function.
While many theories exist as to why the plaque accumulates, one common theory is that it is due to a lack of a protein called insulin-degrading enzyme.
This protein’s job is to remove excess sugar-carrying insulin and amyloid plaque from the brain.
If this enzyme is too busy removing insulin and excess sugar from the brain due to high blood sugar levels, there may not be enough to also remove excess plaque, thereby significantly increasing the risk of Alzheimer’s.”

RECOVERY FROM AUTISM IS POSSIBLE
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.

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…
