How We Can Stop Promoting Autism in Our Children: 2nd Edition

Families affected by autism are thrown into chaos and despair. Parents ask, "How did this happen to my child?" To date, no one has provided a definitive answer as to what causes autism. Although there's much speculation, nothing has been proven scientifically.

As a traditional Naturopathic Doctor, I've served families with an autistic family member for many years--and it is the entire family that suffers this syndrome. I have also observed triumphs in bringing autistic children forward to productivity on the road to self-sufficiency and an independent life.

But I've also seen failures. I've watched as parents promoted, even exacerbated their child's autism syndrome. I have drawn a straight line between a family's lifestyle, the hidden dangers in the food fed to children, digestive health issues and the many nutritional deficits that ensue, and the manifestation of autistic behavior.

This book speaks to how our quick-fix, multi-tasking, always on-the-go lifestyle promotes autism. It's a checklist of those things we do, that we must stop doing, and a guide to reducing or eliminating autistic behavior¬-a path you can take to end your child's suffering.

"In this short work, Dr. Brooks encapsulates the core actions required to bring a child out of the depths of autism, regardless of where he or she may fall on the spectrum. Her principles are sound and methods are scientific. 'If you're not testing, you're guessing,' is a mantra of hers that I have adopted. Testing then knowing, planning then acting. It seems so simple, yet has profound results. Dr. Brooks' stepwise progression is built on solid ground."
