Help for Autism

Vaccinations May Cause 70% of Autism

Vaccines contain many toxins and when given in their recommended dosages, these completely overwhelm the child's system. With undeveloped immune systems, babies and young children simply cannot handle the toxins and pathogens in the vaccines. As a consequence, the toxins get stored in the cells. This toxin buildup prevents the brain from functioning properly - and may lead to autism.

According to the CDC's own website, common ingredients in vaccines include:

Antibiotics, Aluminum gels, Formaldehyde, Monosodium Glutamate or MSG, Egg protein and/or Sulfites (both, common allergens).

Of course, vaccines are not the only source of toxins our children are exposed to. We live in a highly toxic world that exposes a child to tens of thousands of chemicals, including:
Pesticide/herbicide residues on food, Household cleaners and laundry detergent, Carpets and construction materials, even breast milk and infant formula.

If you are not already aware of the vaccine/autism connection Click Here: http://www.health-reports.com/RobertKennedyJrarticle.html to read an article written by Robert Kennedy Jr. on this very subject.

Dr. Carley makes the point that there is a fatal flaw in vaccines themselves that can lead to autism, autoimmune conditions and other diseases. This is why the MMR vaccine leads to autism even though it has no mercury in it. She writes:
“What the promoters of vaccination failed to realize is that secretory IgA (an antibody found predominately in saliva and secretions of the gastrointestinal and respiratory tract mucosa) is the initial normal antibody response to all airborne and ingested pathogens. IgA helps protect against viral infection, agglutinate bacteria, neutralize microbial toxins, and decrease attachment of pathogens to mucosal surfaces....
Bypassing this mucosal aspect of the immune system by directly injecting organisms into the body [via vaccines] leads to a corruption in the immune system itself whereby IgA is transmuted into IgE, and/or the B cells are hyper-activated to produce pathologic amounts of self-attacking anti-bodies as well as suppression of cytotoxic T cells.

As a result, the pathogenic viruses or bacteria cannot be eliminated by the immune system and remain in the body, where they cause chronic disease and thus further grow and/or mutate as the individual is exposed to ever more antigens and toxins in the environment....”

The mechanism by which the immune system is corrupted can best be realized when you understand that the two poles of the immune system (the cellular and humoral mechanisms) have a reciprocal relationship in that when the activity of one pole is increased, the other must decrease. Thus, when one is stimulated, the other is inhibited. Since vaccines activate the B cells to secrete antibody, the cytotoxic (killer) T cells are subsequently suppressed....

This suppression of the cell mediated response is thus a key factor in the development of cancer and life threatening infections. The organisms continue circulating through the body, adapting to the hostile environment by transforming into other organisms depending on acidity, toxicity and other changes to the internal terrain of the body.

The antigens present in the culture media itself [on which the viruses used to make the vaccine are grown] cannot be completely filtered and separated from the organisms cultured thereon [the vaccine's viruses]. Thus, any antibodies formed against antigens from the culture cells themselves.. ‘(for example myelin basic protein from chick embryos or the 13 vaccines which now contain aborted human fetal cells)’... can cross-react to form an autoimmune reaction against the myelin basic protein in your myelin sheath, etc.”

Molecular mimicry is due to similarity of proteins contained in organisms and mammals. For example, the measles virus is made up of proteins similar to myelin basic protein; thus, antibodies formed against the measles virus antigens subsequently also cause an attack against myelin basic protein in the myelin sheath due to cross reactivity of these antibodies.

So not only do vaccines overload the child with toxins. They may start autoimmune responses against the nerve fibers in the brain, exposing and damaging them. This activity alone could cause autism. The myelin sheath continues to grow until about age 10. It is important to stop the attack on it as early as possible, to deal with autism at as young an age as possible, so that the myelin sheath can grow normally and recover from the damage to it.

Lyme Disease May Cause 20% of the cases of Autism.

Researchers recently discovered the Lyme disease bacteria Borrelia can cause autism in some children. Fetuses and babies that hadn't been exposed to ticks were infected with Lyme disease. How could this be? They figured out that this bacterium can be passed by human exposure, from mother to child for example. It tends to run in families, passing from parents to children. If left untreated, it causes brain damage and many other hard to diagnose symptoms commonly found in autistic children. This discovery led the researchers to find Borrelia in many autistic children and their families.

The bacterium is able to get into the brain where it produces toxins, especially when children are exposed to it at a very early age. Unfortunately, Lyme disease isn't the only problem. About 40% of the time these toxins get stuck in the brain because the glutathione needed to remove the toxins gets used up, and cannot be replaced. The toxins disrupt normal brain activity which leads to autism.

Glutathione's Connection to Autism

Glutathione is a protein that should be found in every cell in your body. It is your body's main cellular detoxifier. The liver and the lungs use a lot of it to cleanse the blood and the air we breathe. It is also one of the two most important antioxidants in your body. In addition, it acts as a viral killer in each and every cell in your body.

Research shows that glutathione is deficient in children with autism. Their supply of glutathione has been used up detoxifying the overload of toxins they were exposed to, whether from vaccines, or from cellular pathogens and the toxins they create.

Glutathione is a substance produced by the body when proteins are broken down into amino acids. If a child is unable to properly break down the proteins into amino acids, then the body will not have enough amino acids to make glutathione. It is quite likely that most children who develop autism do so because they have some factors leading to poor protein digestion.
An autistic child is not able to replenish those levels of glutathione because their digestion is impaired. The lack of glutathione means that the brain can't detoxify the chemicals and heavy metals it has been flooded with -- from vaccines, Lyme bacteria, foods and environmental toxins. As a consequence, these heavy metals and toxins disrupt and interfere with brain functioning and autism develops.

Healthy children with a similar toxic overload and vaccination regime who have plenty of glutathione production to keep their brains detoxified may not become autistic or suffer from autism related syndromes.

We have heard numerous reports from parents who describe how their child started to improve within days of starting on the right type of glutathione, which moves directly into the cells via a liposomal delivery system.

Type A blood could signal protein digestion issues.
About 20% of the time the lack of glutathione or the inability to produce enough has something to do with having Type A blood. (There is a high rate of Type A blood in autistic boys.) Children with type A blood usually have a harder time digesting proteins. This poor digestion of protein leads to a lack of amino acids, and thus a deficiency of glutathione. Problem proteins include meats, milk products and whole eggs.
Easier to digest proteins include fish, egg whites, gluten, soy products, nuts and seeds.

Candida yeast infections inhibit glutathione production.
Another issue to consider is Candida overgrowth. About 70% of the time an autistic child can't produce glutathione is because the child has Candida overgrowth.

Candida is yeast that is supposed to exist only in small amounts in the intestinal flora. When a mother has an overgrowth that has spread throughout her body, her baby is infected during birth. The baby's undeveloped immune system cannot kill the Candida, and the friendly bacteria the baby should have picked up from its mother are missing, so Candida overgrowth develops in the baby. Toxins, vaccines, antibiotics and chlorinated water also kill friendly bacteria, and allow Candida to overgrow.

A child with Candida overgrowth cannot properly digest protein. They can not produce enough glutathione to replace what gets used up in cleaning environmental toxins and the heavy metals in the vaccines they have been given. Consequently, a baby with Candida is more likely to be harmed by vaccinations and develop autism, than is a baby who has no Candida overgrowth.
