Podcasts about Autism

Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has spent years spreading doubt about the safety of vaccines and linking them to autism. Dozens of studies have debunked the theory, but it has nevertheless persisted for years. Part of the reason why may be that autism diagnoses have soared over the last few decades.Dr. Allen Frances is psychiatrist who led the task force that created the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, which expanded the definition of Autism. Frances says that expanded definition played a role in the increase.Rates of autism have exploded in recent decades. Could the clinical definition of autism itself be partly to blame?

Mitochondria give cells over 90% of their energy. Without proper energy cells cannot carry out their functions. Mitochondrial Dysfunction vs Mitochondrial Disease Mitochondrial dysfunction simply means that the mitochondria are not working correctly. Mitochondrial disease is the term used when the primary cause of mitochondrial dysfunction resides in the mitochondria. Mitochondrial disease is generally genetic. It can be inherited from either or both parents. A special type of mitochondrial disease is caused by mutations on the mitochondrial DNA, and is inherited only from the mother. When the primary cause of mitochondrial dysfunction resides outside the mitochondria, mitochondrial dysfunction is called “secondary” (to something else). Symptoms of Mitochondrial Dysfunction Cellular energy is necessary for the function of all cells, but is particularly critical for nerve and muscle. Both nerve and muscle are important in GI function, thus cyclic vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, poor GI mobility, and other digestive disorders are common. Additional potential complications of mitochondrial dysfunction include chronic fatigue, neuropathic pain, depression, autistic regression, seizures, hypoglycemia, visual and hearing difficulty, depression, anxiety, panic disorder, intellectual disability, and dysautonomia. Mitochondrial Triggers Mitochondrial dysfunction can be genetic, but even then, disease is often triggered by the environment. Viral infections are among the most common triggers of mitochondrial dysfunction. Additional potential triggers are other infections (e.g. lyme bacteria), vaccinations, toxins, anesthesia, and any other significant stressor. In order situations, mitochondrial dysfunction can be acquired. In fact, stroke and heart attack involve mitochondrial dysfunction, whereas cells are receiving insufficient oxygen for required energy metabolism. Many environmental toxins can poison mitochondria as well, including some pesticides... Click Here or Click the link below for more details! https://naturallyrecoveringautism.com/223

Story at-a-glance Autism rates in the U.S. have surged by 17% in just two years, with 1 in 31 children now affected — a public health crisis experts say must no longer be ignored Most diagnosed children have intellectual disabilities, debunking claims that rising rates are due to better detection of mild cases The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report omitted environmental factors entirely, despite mounting research linking toxins like glyphosate, heavy metals, and EMFs to neurological harm and autism-related outcomes Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is launching an unprecedented investigation into environmental triggers, urging researchers to “follow the science” and deliver initial findings by September to guide future action Disparities in autism rates across racial groups raise urgent questions, as Asian, Black, and Hispanic children face significantly higher diagnoses — a signal that systemic and environmental factors demand deeper scrutiny

With the Wind with Dr. Paul – Show 178: Pediatric Perspectives: Allopathic Medicine Misses Root Causes with Ken Stoller M.D Presenters: Dr. Paul Thomas and Dr. Ken Stoller Length: Approx. 42 minutes ________________________________________ Summary: In this revealing episode of Pediatric Perspectives, Dr. Paul welcomes Dr. Ken Stoller, a fellow pediatrician and outspoken critic of modern allopathic medicine. Drawing from decades of experience, Dr. Stoller unpacks why he believes mainstream healthcare fails to address the root causes of disease—and how this system has evolved into what he calls a “death cult.” From questioning vaccine safety and the lack of informed consent to discussing hyperbaric oxygen therapy and dietary interventions, Dr. Stoller provides a compelling case for rethinking medicine as we know it. Dr. Paul and Dr. Stoller also reflect on their personal awakenings and professional sacrifices made in pursuit of truth and health advocacy. The conversation ends with practical advice for parents navigating today's toxic health landscape: prioritize nutrition, reject harmful interventions, and take full responsibility for your family's health. ________________________________________ Key Points: • How allopathic medicine avoids root causes and prioritizes symptom suppression • The troubling history and lack of informed consent behind the hepatitis B vaccine • Hyperbaric oxygen therapy and its overlooked role in treating brain-related conditions • Dietary dangers including seed oils, processed foods, and environmental toxins • Vaccine-induced encephalopathy and the mislabeling of autism • Strategies parents can adopt to protect their children's health, including diet and avoiding unnecessary pediatric interventions ________________________________________ Resources: • Incurable Me by Dr. Ken Stoller: https://www.amazon.com/Incurable-Me-Research-Clinical-Practice/dp/1536669458 • Pro Oxygen | Dr. Stoller's Hyperbaric Practice: http://stollerhbot.com/ ________________________________________ Conclusion: Dr. Ken Stoller's journey from mainstream pediatrician to outspoken advocate for medical reform is both courageous and eye-opening. This episode challenges deeply held assumptions about vaccines, healthcare institutions, and chronic disease—and encourages parents to think critically and act independently in pursuit of true wellness. ________________________________________ Call to Action: Don't miss this powerful discussion.

Dr. Mary Barbera discusses how doctor visits can be overwhelming for children with autism, but systematic desensitization can make a big difference. This simple approach uses gradual exposure and positive reinforcement to reduce fear and build cooperation—even for kids with past medical trauma. Start with pretend play, visual schedules, and breaking visits into small steps. For emergencies, prep a go-bag and summary sheet in advance. With the right tools and a little planning, you can reduce meltdowns and make medical visits more manageable.

Send us a textWhat does it mean to discover your autism at age 44? Dr. Jason Ybarra takes us on a profound journey of self-discovery that began when he noticed he could understand his autistic students in ways others couldn't. "This feels like a cozy sweater," he recalls thinking, as pieces of his own identity puzzle started falling into place.The revelation transformed Dr. Ybarra's understanding of his past. Those childhood hours spent alone with art and Legos, the social exhaustion misdiagnosed as depression, the academic paradox of excelling in math while struggling with writing—suddenly made sense through a neurodivergent lens. His conversation with his mother after diagnosis brought new clarity to both of them, strengthening their bond as they reframed puzzling childhood moments.Now as a university professor and planetarium director, Dr. Ybarra channels his lived experience into creating more accessible spaces for neurodivergent students. He's implementing autism training for staff, revising instructional materials for clarity, and mentoring students who share his neurotype. Most powerfully, he's identifying unique talents in autistic students and creating research opportunities tailored to their abilities—like partnering with a calligraphy-skilled student on a historical astronomy project."When you embrace neurodiversity, that benefits everyone," Dr. Ybarra explains, highlighting how accommodations designed for neurodivergent minds often improve experiences for all. His work demonstrates that understanding the autistic experience isn't just about helping those on the spectrum—it's about creating a world where different ways of thinking are recognized as valuable, where clear communication replaces unspoken expectations, and where everyone has the opportunity to contribute their unique gifts.Ready to explore more about autism, neurodiversity, and creating inclusive environments?

Rates of chronic illness, behavioral disorders, and neurodevelopmental challenges are rising rapidly among children, often tied to underlying gut dysfunction, nutrient deficiencies, and environmental triggers such as toxins and ultra-processed foods. Conventional treatments frequently overlook these root causes, relying instead on symptom management or medication. Functional approaches emphasize foundational lifestyle changes—clean nutrition, microbiome support, movement, sleep, and stress reduction—as powerful tools to restore health. Children are especially responsive to these changes, often experiencing rapid and dramatic improvements in behavior, mood, and physical symptoms. With education, testing, and family-centered strategies, parents can take simple, effective steps to help their children thrive. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Elisa Song, Dr. Suzanne Goh, and Dr. Elizabeth Boham why a root-cause approach is just as important for children, as it is for adults. Dr. Elisa Song, MD is a Stanford-, NYU-, UCSF-trained integrative pediatrician, pediatric functional medicine expert, and mom to 2 thriving children - and she is on a mission to revolutionize the future of children's health. Dr. Song is the bestselling author of the Healthy Kids Happy Kids: An Integrative Pediatrician's Guide to Whole Child Resilience. Dr. Song created Healthy Kids Happy Kids as an online holistic pediatric resource to help practitioners and parents bridge the gap between conventional and integrative pediatrics with an evidence-based, pediatrician-backed, mom-approved approach. In her integrative pediatric practice, she's helped 1000s of kids get to the root causes of their health concerns and empowered parents to help their children thrive by integrating conventional pediatrics with functional medicine, homeopathy, acupuncture, herbal medicine, and essential oils. Dr. Song is chair of A4M's pediatric education and has lectured around the world at leading integrative and functional medicine conferences and premier parenting events. She has also been featured in hundreds of top podcasts, print and online media outlets, including the Wellness Mama podcast, BloomTV, Forbes, Healthline, MindBodyGreen, National Geographic, PopSugar, Parents, Motherly, Parade, Verywell Health, and New York Post. Dr. Suzanne Goh, co-founder and chief medical officer at Cortica, is a Rhodes Scholar and graduate of Harvard University, University of Oxford, and Harvard Medical School who has spent decades working with autistic children. Her work as a board-certified pediatric behavioral neurologist, behavioral analyst, neuroscience researcher, and author led her to create the Cortica Care Model, an innovative, whole-child approach that combines optimal medical treatment with the most effective strategies for advancing cognition, communication, and behavior. Dr. Elizabeth Boham is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Albany Medical School, and she is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and the Medical Director of The UltraWellness Center. Dr. Boham lectures on a variety of topics, including Women's Health and Breast Cancer Prevention, insulin resistance, heart health, weight control and allergies. She is on the faculty for the Institute for Functional Medicine. This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers. Head to bioptimizers.com/hyman and use code HYMAN10 to save 10%.

In this insightful episode of Neurodiverse Christian Couples, hosts Stephanie and Dan welcome Ed Khouri, President of Equipping Hearts for the Harvest and author of "Becoming a Face of Grace." Together, they explore the crucial interplay between grace and joy, clarifying how genuine grace—being seen as special and favored without earning it—naturally leads to joy, the gladness of being together. Can you have grace AND have boundaries? What about the phrase, "Just give me grace." The conversation tackles deep relational issues common in neurodiverse marriages, such as navigating attachment pain, understanding the differences between sin, transgression, and iniquity, and developing effective boundaries without enabling harmful behavior. Ed emphasizes practical strategies for couples to build emotional capacity and relational resilience, including shared quieting exercises and storytelling techniques aimed at fostering mutual joy and appreciation. Listeners will find hope and practical guidance for overcoming challenges related to executive functioning, emotional regulation, and relational misunderstandings. Ed Khouri's insights underscore how grace, boundaries, and joy work together to nurture a healthier, thriving neurodiverse marriage. About our Guest: Ed KhouriEd is passionate about helping churches, leaders, and small groups develop thriving, healthycommunities rooted in grace, joy, and peace.

"Anytime you have a default, anyone whose brain learns things, processes, communicates differently is going to feel othered.

Story at-a-glance Neurological injuries from vaccination have been documented since the smallpox vaccine over two centuries ago, with severe injuries reported throughout medical literature The medical profession concealed these injuries, believing public vaccination benefits justified hiding information that might create vaccine hesitancy Historical injuries like spreading paralysis mirror current "one in a million" vaccine injuries, but toxicity documentation was erased to preserve the "safe and effective" narrative In the past, these injuries were widely reported, but now research into them is widely censored Many of these forgotten reports are critical for understanding modern “inexplicable” conditions like Autism

Welcome back to Queer Wrath Month, Neurodivergent Creative!In this episode, Caitlin dives deep into nonbinary gender identity—what it is, what it isn't, and why it's time we unlearn the binaries we've been spoon-fed... because apparently, it's 2025 and some of y'all still think gender has only two options like it's a sad vending machine.

It's time we bust these binaries, call out all these cisnomartive nonsense, and wear your gender however the hell you want.

Today, Dr. Stephanie talks to Dan of the Aspie World! Are we still allowed to say Aspie? Dan talks us through his autism identification and how that led him to build one of the first platforms on social media about adult autism.Hello friends,I want to share something deeply personal—something that completely shifted the trajectory of my life.At 26, I received a formal diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome (now Autism Spectrum Disorder), along with ADHD, OCD, and Dyslexia. That moment wasn't about becoming someone new; it was about finally understanding who I always was.For years, I silently battled confusion, overwhelm, and social exhaustion. Masking my discomfort to "fit in" affected my mental and emotional health deeply.A Diagnosis Isn't a Label—It's a Lens.It provided clarity, showing me that I'm not broken; I'm wired differently. Discovering neurodiversity helped me celebrate my differences and recognize my strengths—creativity, hyperfocus, analytical thinking—as true assets.This revelation inspired me to start The Aspie World, supporting thousands globally in navigating neurodivergent journeys. Our differences drive innovation, empathy, and inclusion, making humanity richer.Remember, your diagnosis is just the beginning of a beautiful, empowered chapter. You are capable, valuable, and not alone.Thank you for joining this journey.With gratitude,Daniel M.

You asked. I answered. In this solo Q&A, I tackle some of the biggest and most misunderstood questions from our Bendy Bodies community. From toddlers flagged for autism to adults fighting for an EDS diagnosis, from altitude flares to functional neurologic disorder, this episode pulls no punches. I talk low-dose naltrexone (LDN), altitude hacks, medication struggles, and the quiet panic of a diagnosis that suddenly shifts under you. Plus, we look ahead to the 2026 hEDS (hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) classification changes and the stigma that still haunts hypermobile bodies. Whether you're a patient, a provider, or somewhere in between—you'll hear something in this episode that makes you feel seen. Takeaways: How the diagnosis of functional neurologic disorder (FND) is often misused—and what that means for bendy patients. What one family doctor learned when her toddler was flagged for autism... and EDS. The truth about low-dose naltrexone—and why it's not a quick fix. Why a change in your diagnosis doesn't change your reality. A life-saving strategy for traveling to high altitudes with EDS or POTS.

Kaelynn Partlow is an autism advocate and author, and one of the stars of the Netflix series, Love on the Spectrum. Today she joins Emily to talk about her experiences with autism, and they cover a lot of ground in this conversation. They discuss the evolution and effectiveness of ABA therapy, the need for accurate labeling, and using declarative language in communication. They also offer advice for parents of newly diagnosed children, and talk about the importance of finding community. TAKEAWAYS The world will label children if parents don't. The superpower label is a double-edged sword. Nuance is often lost in discussions about autism. Profound autism requires specific understanding and advocacy. Declarative language can reduce pressure in communication. Specific questions help autistic individuals engage better. Finding community is essential for parents of autistic children. Have Emily come and speak to your school district, company, or organization. Here's where you can find out more and get in touch. Kaelynn Partlow is an autism advocate, speaker, and author widely recognized for her appearance on the Netflix series Love on the Spectrum. Through her impactful social media presence, she promotes meaningful inclusion and practical support, reaching millions with her message of autism acceptance and understanding.

255: On today's episode of the Realfoodology Podcast, I sit down with returning guest Dr. Joel Warsh - aka Dr. Joel Gator on Instagram - to talk about his new book Between A Shot and A Hard Place. I've been doing more episodes on vaccines lately, and before you tune out, I just want to say: this is not an anti-vax conversation. It's about asking questions. Dr. Joel is a pediatrician who started digging into the research for his book and was shocked by how little we actually know. We talked about the lack of liability in vaccine development, the censorship around this topic, and how we can create space for real, open dialogue. I hope you'll listen with an open mind. Topics Discussed → Why Dr. Joel wrote Between A Shot and A Hard Place → Vaccine propaganda, censorship, and open dialogue → The 1986 Vaccine Injury Liability Act → Autism, risk factors, and vaccine hesitancy → Informed consent and questioning medical norms Sponsored By: → Timeline | They're offering my audience a 20% discount on all first-time purchases!

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is focused on addressing why nearly three percent of children are diagnosed with autism. Vox senior correspondent Dylan Scott joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why Kennedy's inquiry may be misdirected, how he's discounting the fact that around 80 percent of autism causes are genetic and why a smoking gun is unlikely to be found. His article is “RFK Jr. is looking in the wrong place for autism's cause.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
