Thank you so much for taking the time to read my intro and leave information about your experience with health and wellness. I really don't get many people offering advice as you would think. Instead, I am the one who tends to share what has worked for us with others. We started on the GAPS diet about 4 years ago and then recently tried the diet offered in Medical Medium. I am very familiar with his protocol but unfortunately have not found any success with it for our son or ourselves. We still do much of what is included in that protocol because it aligns with what has worked in the past. Some of the supplements were reactionary and we have pulled back on the fruit. We have been working with an integrative functional medicine Dr, but found the most success with diet modification and methyl b12 injections. We are planning a trip to Panama for adult stem cell therapy and are incredibly excited. Recently I have heard a great deal about The Plant Paradox diet although I have some concerns. The author while incredibly qualified refers to fruit equating to skittles and the exemption of honey with the allowance of stevia and monk fruit. Yet I continually hear many people discuss the great changes that are made with the elimination of lectins. One person even claimed that his consciousness was changed!!! My husband and I struggle with our health as well, so it's worth exploring. Please keep me posted on your progress. Let's stay in touch <3

There is SO much misinfo out there around health. It's disturbiing, as someone who's been to the depths of hell with my health. I spent TONS of money on a functional medicine doctor last year and got tiny results. The lectins things is bogus. It causes people to stay away from foods that are actually healthy and healing. The thing about the Medical Medium protocol is if there are certain things that need more attention and focus and priority, then you might not feel better, and sometimes worse. Our liver is one of the biggest issues with this. The liver is already over burdened when many of us start his protocol, but then, we start killing pathogens and detoxing heavy metals and then it gets super stressed if we don't make other big changes to support the liver in working hard. There are many other components to this. I want to encourage you to get in touch with an intuitive practitioner I work with who follows the MM protocol and has healed herself from DECADES of illness as result of his work. She is super friendly and easy to work with. She works over the phone (though I've met her in person). She does free 20 minute consults so you can see if she feels like a good match. One thing she does at the first paid session is give you numbers where your current system is at. Things like liver function, adrenal fatigue, heavy metal toxicity and hydration. As well as many others. This is SO helpful as it can be key to what to focus on as well as why certain supps and foods seem to cause reactions. I cannot recommend her highly enough. I truly think she can give you A LOT of answers and support and really keep it simple. I don't believe you need turn everything upside down and go to Panama. Healing is available here! Here is the link to her site and where you can schedule a free 20 minute consult. She is also wonderful at responding to questions you have along the way - she's very available for support most days!

Also, feel free to reach out to me - I have not had to deal with autism, but I've been around the block and understand a good bit about healing. Blessings to you and your husband and your son! <3
