I was looking at Oprah’s web site and found a Q and A from Jenny. I have to agree with what she said!!!!!!! I have her top 7 tips on how to save your child from autism……( I say NO to ALL dyes…but..yes Red #40 is the worst of the worst!!!!!!
To see the whole list go here: http://www.oprah.com/article/oprahshow/tows_past_20070918_c1
Jenny McCarthy answers your questions about parenting a child with autism.
Things I didn’t get to on the show that Id like say…
First I am not a doctor nor have I ever played one on TV… This is just what I did for my son and every child is different.
Biomedical Steps I took with Evan…
#1: Food allergy blood test, which is called IGG food allergy test. Many kids come back negative on gluten, including Evan. That’s okay. I still needed to remove gluten from his diet and other foods I found out he was allergic to.
#2 Got a D.A.N doctor. I went to www.autism.com.
#3 GF/CF diet and started supplements from Kirkman laboratories, especially Super Nu-Thera multi-vitamin.
#4 Starting anti-fungal meds to kill Candida/fungus. Meds like Diflucan, Nystatin. Evan started to come out of autism completely after I killed CANDIDA!!!
#5 Besides GF/CF I also started sugar-free and yeast-free diet. No fruit or sugar.
#6 No artificial coloring, like RED dye in anything!!! Caused crazy EVAN!!!!!!
#7 Evan is still on the GFCF and IF I take him off or feed him sugars his candida comes back and so do old autism characteristics.
NOW FROM BARRIE………………….
Not all kids need to be sugar free or fruit free…but MANY do have yeast! Many use agave nectar as a sugar replacement.
We have to spread the message about how horrific artificial dyes and preservatives are for ALL HUMANS…kids, adults, typical and not!!! We are harming our children, by subjecting them to this lethal garbage!
GFCF….need I say more…this is my song..and I sign it LOUDLY!!! It works. It works and it works.
If ANY doctor says..it does not..they live in a horrible hole and you MUST say GOOD-BYE and find a new doctor. Any doctor that wants to poison your child with meds (yes DRUG THEM) , who has ASD or ADD/ADHD….RUN RUN AND RUN like the wind….there are MANY other options!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Find a doctor who is against drugs and start your research…there are MANY other ways via biomedical interventions to help them in many ways rid their symptoms!!!
