Preventing Autism at Birth (Part 1 of 2)

(For Part 2, See www.AutismHealthandWellness.com - articles)



By Dr. Phil Bate


How about a really cheap, yet effective way to prevent autism?  Here it is.  Go to a discount store such as Costco or Walmart.  Get a bottle of 500 pills of 1000mg (1 gram).of Vitamin C.  It will take out accumulated mercury in the mother and protect the developing fetus from brain damage causing autism.


Start taking two of those pills at breakfast and two at dinner.  Take any vitamins, supplements or other drugs at lunch, so that any minerals in those aren’t taken out of the body by the vitamin C.  Total cost under $30 for the whole nine months. 


What this actually does is lower the toxic amounts in the mother (and baby) of mercury, lead, etc.  This allows a baby born with low toxins in the liver at birth, allowing the baby’s tiny liver to handle subsequent mercury loading from vaccines, etc.
Vitamin C does many things very well: 

1.  It “chelates” all minerals in the bloodstream combining with them into a harmless form that is water soluble, and this is filtered out of the bloodstream by the kidneys and out of the body via urine.  That’s important, because in the polluted world, the mother may have a near toxic level of mercury, or lead, or other heavy metal that can destroy brain cells.   She is not likely to even know this unless she has had mineral analysis by blood, urine, or hair.  By taking the amount above, for at least six to nine months, the mother’s toxic level (and the babies) will be lowered sufficiently, so that at birth the baby’s tiny liver will be able to handle additional loads of mercury from vaccines and other toxic sources.

2.  What some may not want you to know is that Vitamin C kills both bacteria and virus cells in the blood.  However to do this the blood has to be saturated long enough to kill all that are present.  With this amount, the blood is saturated twice a day.  This gives fair to good protection against colds and flu’s for the mother and the baby.  This also lessens considerably the possibility of high temperatures that may be dangerous to the fetus.  (In flu season, I up that to 3 grams at both times.)


Many MDs ignorant of the above facts still oppose this usage.  There are many false “horror” stories spread about vitamin C.  These include the following:


                a. Vitamin C causes abortion or miscarriage


F. R. Klenner, MD ((http://www.doctoryourself.com/miscarriage.html) gave high doses (5000 to 10,000 mg/day) to 300 women during pregnancy with no miscarriages.  There has never been a true case of abortion due to any vitamin.


                b. Vitamin C causes Kidney damage and/or kidney stones:


Totally false – in fact, knowledgeable MD’s use vitamin C to help dissolve kidney stones, and to treat kidney and bladder infections. 


                c. Vitamin C is useless against viruses and bacteria:


This is supposedly backed by several “scientific tests”.  In such tests, these “scientists” used only 500 mg of vitamin C (that’s their definition of a megavitamin since the RDA is only 75 mg.  That amount will prevent scurvy, BUT, it isn’t nearly enough for good health!


The major flaw in that research is that 500 mg cannot begin to saturate the bloodstream to kill ALL the virus and bacteria cells.  Both multiply in a binary fashion doubling about every 20 minutes.  If 500 mg of vitamin C only kills half the germ cells present, 20 minutes after the vitamin C is “used up”, the germs are back to where they started and 20 minutes more and they’ve doubled again. 


The results of such a “scientific” test are not true, and their advancers know it, but they keep using such phony research as they will lose a lot of money if the true facts about vitamin C are known.  It’s much cheaper than their drugs, much safer, and at least as effective. 


Here’s a fact that’s true.  The only side effect of overdosing of Vitamin C is diarrhea.   Anyone who tells you different is mistaken, and probably misled by years of misinformation.  For more free information on this visit www.drbate.com

Integrated 4 Part Therapy for Autism


There seem to be hundreds of therapies for autism on the market today and “on the market” seems to be the reason – money.  However, there is no real integration of any of these therapies and little information for the “poor” parents with an autistic child (and “poor” is often correct as autism is a “bankrupting disease”).
There are four different basic problems with four different therapies needed to solve them and work towards any cure or improvements.  These are:
  • Mercury and other heavy metal toxins
  • Allergies and food sensitivities
  • Digestive (gut) problems
  • Inadequate nutrition
Dealing with Heavy Metal toxicity.


This is the major problem and few doctors really understand it.   Measuring heavy metal, particularly in an autistic infant or child is no simple matter.  Few MDs are aware that the autistic patients are ALWAYS short in any chelating material in the blood, such as Vitamin C, or glutathione.  (At every autism conference, there are several booths, each extolling a different way to get expensive glutathione into an autistic child.  Vitamin C is cheaper and better.)  


The doctor takes a blood or urine sample, and runs a mineral assay, comparing the heavy metals to the nutritional minerals in the blood stream.  They believe that this is somewhat accurate, BUT IT’S NOT!


Understand that the function of the liver is to filter these toxic minerals out of the blood so that they cannot get to the brain where they can actually kill brain cells.  Once the toxins are filtered into the liver, some are gradually shifted to other safe storage areas of the body.  However, with a large load of mercury, such as multiple vaccines, added to what’s already in the liver, the liver may not be able to handle it all and brain cells are damaged or killed.  (Check the mother’s mercury level as well.)


The liver is under strict instructions NEVER to release these toxins until and unless some chelation material is present in the bloodstream.  A chelating material combines with the heavy metal, and converts it to a harmless chemical that is water soluble, and it can be filtered out via the kidneys and urine pathway. 


So, if blood is measured, what is actually measured is only what the liver can release (if a chelate is present, a short time after the chelate is sensed).  Blood then may contain at that time and for some time after, a reasonable amount of the toxin.  


Urine takes this similar amount out of the body after it has been filtered out by the kidneys.  (Adults may be measured more accurately by hair analysis.)  So, if you followed the above, you can see that with an autistic child it is more than likely any measurement of mercury or lead will show a false negative – that is actually below toxicity.


How can you get a more accurate or at least NOT a false negative reading?  Pre-load your child with Vitamin C.  I recommend vitamin C for several reasons:  It’s cheap; it’s antiviral and antibacterial; and the only bad side effect is diarrhea, even for infants.


Since vitamin C only lasts four hours, I would load up to 1 gram (1000mg) every four hours for every 50 pounds of child.  If, or when, the child gets diarrhea, lower that amount until just below the point where diarrhea starts.  (That’s called “bowel tolerance”). 
  
If the patient shows toxic for heavy metal, start chelating and continue until tests show a level way below toxic.  This may take up to a year or more.  Remember that this is very slow and safe, and it takes a long time to get all of it out of storage and released into the blood.  I’ve seen continued high heavy metal toxicity 6 months or a year after starting this chelation.


There are many different chelators on the market and some of them are advertised as fast.  I’m not convinced that these really are that fast, or they just get the toxin out of the liver, and leave it in the stored fatty areas.   I still recommend vitamin C as the cheapest and best chelator for the reasons above.  For chelation purposes, I used 10 grams per day in split doses for adults, and modified that for children, often using bowel tolerance as a measure. 


If every pregnant mother were tested for toxic minerals at start of pregnancy and started chelation if toxic, it could easily end this autism “epidemic”.    I believe that if pregnant women took 4 grams of vitamin C and a good multi vitamin all throughout pregnancy, they would have healthy babies!


Here’s some good news – using vitamin C this way, your child or even infant will probably not get colds or flu while on these amounts of vitamin C.  Nor will most pregnant women. (To be continued indepth in next issue of Autism Health and Wellness.)
