How To Prevent Autism

The statistics are alarming and become more so every year. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 1 in 68 children have been identified with an autism spectrum disorder, making it one of the fastest growing developmental disorders in the United States. Further, the CDC estimates that parents with a child on the autism spectrum can have nearly a 20 percent chance of having a second child with autism. In How to Prevent Autism, Dara Berger shares her personal journey with autism. She describes everything that went wrong with her son that led to an autism diagnosis and everything she did differently to prevent her daughter from suffering the same fate. She interviews eight well-known ASD experts--including doctors, nutritionists, nurses, and scientists--about the factors that have led to the growing epidemic of autism. Based on the best practices for preventing autism in children, each professional offers perspectives grounded in their own research and their patients’ improvements. The book covers every detail--from the importance of mothers’ cleaning out their bodies preconception, through common genetic mutations that may put children at risk, to the crucial role of nutrition in prevention. All parents agree that every choice counts when it comes to the health of their children. As Dara Berger makes clear in this personal, informative, and authoritative book, the stakes could not be higher when it comes to autism.

Over 1 million people have autism. This number is rapidly growing. Over the past several years autism has increased to epidemic proportions. Thirty years ago it affected only about 1 in 2,500; today 1 out of every 88 children in the United States and 1 out of 64 in the UK are affected. Autism has quickly become a worldwide problem. Over the past 12 years there has been a 17 percent increase in childhood developmental disabilities of all types including autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), epilepsy, mental retardation, and others. Currently in the United States, 4 million children have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, the most common learning disability, and an incredible one in six children are classified as learning disabled. Why the sudden astronomical rise in developmental disabilities? Most doctors have no clue what causes autism, nor any idea how to prevent or even treat it. The only medically recognized form of treatment is an attempt to teach affected children how to manage the disorder and live with it. Antidepressants, antipsychotics, and stimulants are often prescribed to help cope with symptoms. No possibility of a cure is offered, as the condition is considered permanent—in other words “hopeless.” Autism, however, is not a hopeless condition. It can be prevented and successfully treated without the use of drugs. This book describes an innovative new dietary and lifestyle approach that has proven very successful in reversing even some of the most severe developmental disorders, allowing once disabled children to enter regular school and lead normal, happy, productive lives.

Moreover, why mental illnesses have become prevalent is elucidated, the various causes of mental illnesses are demystified, and how to efficaciously prevent mental illnesses is delineated in this essay. Moreover, the ample deadly disease causing foods that you should always desist from ever considering devouring are identified in this essay. Furthermore, how to substantially mitigate risks for succumbing to contracting perilous chronic diseases by embracing a salubrious, wholesome, heart healthy, brain healthy, kidney healthy, anticancer, antidiabetic, nutrient dense, alkaline, antioxidant rich, anti-inflammatory, raw fruitarian diet is expounded upon in this essay. Similarly to how there are ample causes behind mental illnesses, the causes of autism are multitudinous. Contracting autism in the womb can be life alternating for an individual which is why it is of eminent importance that the mother does everything in her purview to preempt her child from contracting autism. Navigating your way through life in this simulated reality and attaining profound success in the real world can become all the more cumbersome when you have autism and have extremely difficulty focusing on the various tasks at hand. "Autism spectrum disorder is a broad term used to describe a group of neurodevelopmental disorders. These autism spectrum disorders are characterized by problems with communication and social interaction. People with autism spectrum disorder often demonstrate restricted, repetitive, and stereotyped interests or patterns of behavior" (Cherney & Seladi-Schulman, 2018). Moreover, "people with Autism spectrum disorder can have other conditions that can widen the spectrum even further. These secondary conditions include speech and language difficulties, intellectual disability, sleep problems, attention problems, epilepsy, anxiety, depression, and difficulties with fine and gross motor skills" (Hetzler, 2016). Furthermore, "hyperactivity is one of the most prevalent symptoms in diagnosis of autism. Most children with autism have hyperactivity together with attention deficit. It is thought that there is a connection between attention deficit and autism" ("Autism and Hyperactivity," 2018). "Children diagnosed with autism can show symptoms of hyperactivity, inattentiveness or impulsivity" (Johnson, 2012) from a young age. The ramifications of contracting autism can be of dire consequence to your future and should not be overlooked. Children will be all the more prone to contracting autism if their parents choose to be irresponsible and neglectful towards optimizing the health of their children. It can be all the more arduous to be successful in the real world when you are stifled by autism. It is believed that exposure to neurotoxins can elicit autism, similarly to how encountering these adversities can elicit ADHD. "Exposure to lead for instance can result in hyperactivity and inattention. Lead can be found a variety of places, such as in the paint of homes built before 1978 or" (Low, 2019) even in municipal water supplies. "An analysis of chemicals in baby teeth suggests that exposure to lead in pregnancy or shortly after birth might make infants more vulnerable to developing autism. Higher lead exposure when an infant reached the 3-month mark was linked to a higher risk for greater autism severity. Metal exposure in early infancy might affect autism severity when it develops" (Mozes, 2017). Nothing salubrious can ever ensue from being exposed to deleterious neurotoxins. Similar to the risk factors for ADHD, the risk factors for autism are extensive. Beyond exposure to neurotoxins, such as lead, being able to precipitate the development of autism, it is also believed that "poor nutrition and infections during pregnancy can increase the risk of" (Low, 2019) autism.
