Episode notes
Autism Often Has Treatable Biological Roots
- Richard Fry discovered biological causes in many autism cases by running EEGs, mitochondrial tests, and lumbar punctures.
- He found abnormal biochemistry like low cerebral folate and treated some children with measurable improvement.
Genes And Environment Interact In Autism
- Genetic mutations linked to autism can be de novo and influenced by environment and nutrition.
- Folate abnormalities can impair DNA replication and increase mutation risk.
Optimize Parental Health Preconception
- Test and optimize parental metabolism before conception to reduce risk factors for autism.
- Address simple issues like folate, iron, vitamin D, thyroid and carnitine proactively.
