Product Description
This book shows that autism can be treated by reducing the neurological inflammation that is part of the disease process, rather than simply masking the symptoms with drugs like Ritalin and Prozac. The authors have have seen autistic behaviors improve dramatically or disappear completely with appropriate medical treatment. The book reviews the medical literature regarding the biological nature of the disease, including the potential connection between vaccines and autism. The foreword is by Katie Wright, whose parents--Bob and Suzanne Wright--founded Autism Speaks.

 A Guide through the Maze July 12, 2008

This books accomplishes much. It is a bio-chemistry overview, explaining what should happen in a typical body and highlighting what is being found to happen via research. It discusses potential causal agents of this multifaceted disease. It includes an excellent bibliography of each and every work cited. It summarize what is known today, discusses the multiple interpretations of existing studies, and highlights where additional research is needed.
This book serves as a map for parents to read and consider their children; it provides details about the system and helps to provide insight into where things may be awry in your child. ASD does not fit neatly into a single box, and it is reviewing the studies that helps one determine what might help their own child.
Thank You for this valuable much needed book! July 8, 2008

I have a child, born in 2001, with regressive autism and have for four years been working to heal him from the effects of his vaccines using biomedical interventions such as are outlined in this book. I so appreciate the careful and systematic way Dr. Jepson lays out this terrible disease. Although it's frightening as a mom to read all the complicated dysfunction that has happened to my child's immune system and neurological development, it's better to know than not know, so that I can work more effectively at healing him. He is getting gradually better. I plan to give one of these books to our pediatrician. Tragically, the mainstream medical community is utterly oblivious to what is happening medically to these afflicted children. Of course, to look too closely at this disease would compel them to acknowledge that the vaccine program is extremely dangerous, too many shots, too soon, and THIMEROSAL is an insane thing to be injecting into an infant. With one in one hundred and fifty children affected, how can the American Academy of Pediatrics turn a blind eye to the suffering of these children? We must help the pediatricians to deal more responsibly with our children, one doctor at a time if necessary. This book will be a great help towards that end. Thank you Dr. Jepson.
A wonderful overview of the way in wich our body works. May 18, 2008

This book changed my perspective, not only of autism but of the aproach I had of troubles in aging, auto-immune diseases, oxidation, aminoacids, etc. I've been looking for this information for a long time.

This book answers a lot of questions about autism, and gives solid scientific evidence about how it can be successfully treated. My son is already reaping the benefits of this wonderful work.

For parents that want a closer look on how to treat their autistic children, this book gives you unbiased and safe information on the subjekt. The book is fearly easy to read, if you have already done some biomedical intervention on your child. For medical practitioners, this book offers a new look on life. It holds well documented arguments for biomedical intervention and makes you think that there may be a different approch to treating children with ASD.
