Patrick Holford: Simple Wisdom for a Healthy Life
Can the Symptoms of Autism Be Reversed?
What is autism? Is it truly on the rise, along with the broader concept of ‘neurodivergence’? With one in six children now identified as having special educational needs, could this increase be due to over-diagnosis, genetic factors, or something more?
In this episode, I’m joined by three pioneers in the field—experts with extensive experience working with thousands of children diagnosed with autism. Together, we uncover the true scale of the issue and explore why our children's mental and physical health is under attack.
Joining me are:
- Dr. Lorene Amet – Director of The Lauriston Centre in the UK, holding a DPhil in Molecular Biology from the University of Oxford and a Master’s in Autism Education. She has conducted postdoctoral research at Princeton and Edinburgh universities.
- Beth Lambert – Founder of Documenting Hope, a non-profit dedicated to children's health. She’s a teacher and the author of A Compromised Generation: The Epidemic of Chronic Illness in America’s Children, as well as co-author of Brain Under Attack.
- Dr. Heather Tallman Ruhm – A board-certified physician with a Master’s degree in Public Health Policy. She has over a decade of experience as a college professor and serves as a medical advisor for Documenting Hope.
Together, we dive deep into what’s beneath the surface - examining why our children's well-being is increasingly under threat.
