Autism and the Bigger Problem(s)

Before they put the subject of autism back in mothballs for another year, I am pleased to post my conversation with Kerri Rivera, who runs AutismO2 (www.autismo2.com), a non-profit clinic for autistic children in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Each year, when awareness about a particular disease is “raised” we end up thinking that we’re falling behind on resolving it, and that it is much harder to eradicate. The perception becomes the reality.

And yet, any truth to the idea of autism being an unsolved puzzle may be related more to the methods that are being used to treat it, and methods NOT used to prevent, or reduce the rate of increase, more so than an actual inability to heal.

When it comes to the causes of autism, most people doling out information speak in vague generalities.

In spite of the fact that autism cases have risen 4000% worldwide in the past 15 years, according to the Fuzz Foundation (www.fuzzfoundation.org), the condition simply “appears” with apparently no known cause.

Autism typically manifests itself between the ages of 18 months to 3 years in children who develop normally until the point that regression begins. – The Fuzz Foundation Site

In other words, autism simply shows up at one’s doorstep and says, “Honey I’m home! What’s for dinner?”

I don’t think so.

There’s plenty of evidence as to what causes the metabolic shock syndrome that we call autism. The term seems appropriate.

Autism isn’t generally associated with metabolic shock syndrome. That is related to other examples of head-in-the-sand-ism that is practiced too often in medicine these days.

You’ll notice expert head-in-the-sandinistas in the Gulf states, who want the public to act as though seafood in the Corexit treated, and oil-soaked marshlands, are safe to eat. They give the appearance of being puzzled as to why Gulf coast residents are reporting mysterious illnesses. Other “experts” opine, even from our FDA, that there’s no evidence of harm.

Will the food make you keel over on one bite?

Probably not.

Will they give you that sense of being “full” when you’re done?

Yes, but twinkies will do that too, if you eat enough, and they’re not good for you either.

But will oil and toxin marinated food from the Gulf Coast nourish you?

NO! Not in its present condition. It needs its balance restored. It need not take long, but it’s been a year, and NO effort has been made to do so.

The Feds are in a rush for you to eat Gulf seafood so that money can flow once again, so fishermen have markets to buy their fish, and life can appear to be back to normal. But will consumers be healthy with a sick Gulf of Mexico?

Not if there is still oil in the marshlands, and the ecosystem hasn’t become vibrant again.

One year later, there is oil in the marshlands, and the ecosystem is not vibrant.

What’s more, all of the methods of resolution that are being tried, are just as effective – and Neanderthal, as current cancer treatment standards. Suck up oil if you can, RAKE the marshlands, or DO NOTHING and let Mother Nature clean up BP’s mess.

None of these methods have proven effective. And yet, there are methods that will work… bioremediation, i.e., microbial cleanup, which would be safe, non-toxic, quick, and effective.

In the same way that the 4+ million barrel oil inundation followed by a 2+ million gallon Corexit chaser was a shock to the Gulf, and manifesting in a significant increase in diseases in the region, autism does appear to manifest as a shock to the body, resulting in communicative paralysis.

The neurological and behavioral disorders that characterize autism are understandable if you see them in terms of signaling. On a clear day, with no background noise, a signal transmitted, whether it is visual or verbal, has a better chance of being interpreted correctly. If it is dark and noisy, any chance of another person understanding the message is slim. The chemical onslaught that the human body is subjected to in “modern” society these days, adds noise to the inner environment, affecting communications… not only between cells, but between the cell and the DNA.

Instead of reducing the chemical “noise” that we’re exposed to, science simply tries to come up with quieter chemicals. But they’re still foreign, dead agents, messing up a living biosphere.

The experts will have you think that, if autism comes knocking, to expect it to last the rest of the lifetime.

What a sentence to place on innocent children. Children that, very often, were fine just a day, or even moments before.

Before what?

A vaccination. A “booster” shot. A “preventative” inoculation required as a condition for admission into school.

No one has ever become autistic after taking MMS. But now, some have come out of autism with the help of Jim Humble’s brew.

So ‘In It’ We Fail to See the Harm as Alien

We have so completely forgotten and dismissed the natural wonder that is the human immune system, that the idea that drugs are required to prevent diseases has been institutionalized. No longer do we question whether the chemicals that we have come to use so ubiquitously, may actually be contributing to the onset of these “mysterious” diseases.

We have come to believe that sickness is inevitable, so convinced, that resistance must be futile, if not impossible, and that immunity, without a drug kicker, a joke.

Autism isn’t alone among the disease pathologies that have been on the rise in the past generation. Alzheimer’s, Lyme, Lupus, Morgellons, Diabetes, stroke, and of course, cancer, have all been on the ascendency. But instead of looking at the potential adverse, cumulative effects that chemical use may be having on human health, we seek more and different methods of delivery, such as through genetic engineering.

“Get our pesticide in the gene of the seed, and we can corner the market,” is what I imagine some bright marketing whiz from Monsanto must have said one day. And “the rest,” as they say, “is history.”

Yet, we are oblivious to the fact that the effect that chemicals have on plants at the cellular level, will eventually and ultimately be repeated in cellular dysfunction in humans.

Antibiotic Milk! Yum!

I’m not singling Monsanto out. I visited a local dairy last week, and while touring the nursery where rows upon rows of calves were feeding, our guide proudly proclaimed that the calves are fed pasteurized antibiotic milk!

Could that be the new trend in dairy products? How “happy” do you think consumers would be to see a pasteurized, antibiotic milk in Wal-Mart’s dairy case?

The fear of disease has become endemic in our treatment strategies, to the extent that the standard treatments have often become worse than the disease itself.

When this is the case, there’s something wrong with the standard treatments.

Instead of seeing this clearly, politicians lock themselves up in debates over how to pay for the anticipated INCREASE in health care while cramming more people in a health care system that itself is on its death-bed.

Talk about social insecurity.

Last week I met a man who has a squamous cell carcinoma on his neck that, for him, MMS did not solve. Not a pretty sight. We didn’t analyze what he did, or did not do with MMS, although I do believe taking 40 drops at a time, which he said he had done, was focusing too much on one modality, and not enough on others.

He is proof, however, that taking MMS won’t kill you. But the burn that he endured from radiation treatment, might just be the straw that broke the camel’s back. Time will tell.

Radiation treatment for cancer or any disease just doesn’t make any sense, especially after reading Electrical Nutrition, by Denie and Shelley Hiestand. Tomorrow morning I will head to Las Vegas to meet, hang out with, and interview the authors of this amazing book.

Continuing on to read Denie’s autobiographical Journey to Truth, it was a Godsend for them to be so close and available.

But again, our problems are not just about radiation. It’s not just chemotherapy. It’s not just chlorination and fluoride in the water supply. It’s not just reverse osmosis, or pasteurization and homogenizing of milk.

Perhaps it’s the closure to new, clearly superior approaches that come from outside the club that sometimes rankles me. Or the active steps that respected agencies take to mislead the public with fear and disinformation when the status quo appears to be threatened.

You have to wonder, what are they afraid of?

Whatever it is, so it is. It seems that someone doesn’t want us to know who we are, and just maybe, that “someone” is us.

Thankfully, there are rays of hope, and lights that appear in the darkness. One such light is Kerri Rivera, who I began talking about quite some time ago.

The conversation that she and I had about her journey, as the mother of an autistic child, and the remarkable improvements that she and 400 families are starting to see since they began using MMS, is now online for your listening and viewing pleasure.
