I just finished watching this ... I really didn't think it was as one sided as others had said. But, I'm pro Generation Rescue, DAN, etc and was cheering for them whenever they were on. I thought they all did a great job ... and I was making fun of the others. They just seem so clueless to me ..
What strikes me the most about all of this is how some medical professionals look at the internet as causing parents to be overly cautious about vaccines. When, if they were doing their jobs, they'd be strongly warning parents that some children appear to be getting autism from vaccines and they wouldn't recommend them until more is known. What Happened to Do No Harm ? How can we trust the medical community when they are knowingly putting our kids at risk ?
One other thing that I don't understand is why holistic or DAN (Defeat Autism Now) treatments aren't more readily available for autism or other diseases. NOW there's a HUGE missed opportunity !!! I have absolutely no idea why some people just can't see this ?! The Defeat Autism Now movement is about preventing and HEALING children from autism but the healing protocals aren't being discussed nearly as much as the vaccine / possible cause of autism.
I consider my protocal to date to be similar to the DAN protocal aka eliminate dietary intolerances then use biochemical interventions for leaky gut. I understand this treatments don't work for all autistic kids, but from my point of view, this may be due in part to those gluten, etc free foods not really being gluten, etc free. We don't have any standards in the US for this . Many people don't realize either that the blood tests for gluten, etc antibodies aren't as good as the stool tests.
IMHO, the other problem with treating autistic kids, or anyone, is the variation that gut bacteria, genetics and environment have on treatments. We simply don't have enough accurate tests to help us with this.
Just my 2 cents ... X
