Beth Lambert, our Executive Director, will be speaking Sunday morning, May 26, 2013 at 9:30am in the Guggenheim Room at this year’s AutismOne conference.
Beth’s presentation is titled, “Canary Kids, The Tipping Point, and the End of the Autism Epidemic”. Here’s a quick summary:
“While many dedicated individuals are focused on ending the autism epidemic by advancing science and research, we can push this process along by cultivating and encouraging a cultural shift that is already underway.
With more than half of American children with a chronic illness, the tipping point is near. We need only nudge it along.”
You’ve got to check out Beth’s presentation!

After finding out that I had heavy-metal poisoning, I immediately thought about my sons. Was it possible that I had passed any of this on to them?
Could this be responsible for their sensory processing disorder (SPD), asthma, allergies, eczema, acid reflux, and developmental delays?
Would I finally find the common thread that I had been looking for all along that tied all of these conditions together?
Yes, unfortunately. Read More→
I’ve been chelating to remove heavy metals for a while now. I had myself retested back in January 2011, and my levels of heavy metals had declined significantly.
“H” means higher than the reference range, and “VH” means it’s a way-high number. My initial mercury levels were literally off the charts! Mercury is toxic at one part per billion, which is about the same concentration as one grain of salt in one swimming pool.

Can you believe what our guys did? They crawled through mud and muck, under barbed wire, through drainage pipes and into freezing water just to raise money (and awareness!) for our little canaries and the film we are making about them! Check out the video of Tough Mudder 2013!

I had been going to my naturopath for about nine months, and the things he was doing, the supplements he was giving me, and the changes in diet that I had made were all having beneficial effects.
He had been working on opening up my pathways of elimination such as kidneys and intestines when heavy metals came up in his assessment. Read More→
Having a son with a developmental delay was very hard on me. He didn’t walk until he was 20 months old.
This was extremely hard for me because he didn’t walk until 3 weeks before his little brother was born, and I was having to carry him everywhere.
I suppose the bright side is that he didn’t weigh a whole lot, given that he was also a failure-to-thrive baby. Read More→
My older son got sick a lot, especially after he started preschool when he was 3.
He would go to preschool for a week then be out the whole next week because he was sick; the preschool didn’t want kids coming in who were sneezing and coughing.
When he was 4 years old, he had a severe asthmatic episode after we went to Los Angeles to visit my husband’s family. Read More→
When my younger son was born, he, too, was “fussy” and “colicky”. He had an outright problem with nursing: he refused to.
When he would, he would shriek in pain or fill up so much (probably because he was starving) that he would throw it right back up. Read More→
