Dr. Klinghardt says that, “Autism starts in the womb Topics explored included toxicity, infections, biotoxins, which lives in a home. The home has a huge influence on EMF exposure and its catastrophic effect on the genes and autism.” Dr. Klinghardt describes our houses as cardboard biochemistry, healing the toxic home, neurosensory boxes with plastic wrapped around them. Our houses do not development through Tomatis work, family constellation breathe, they build up toxic chemicals and they permit electromagnetic radiation to come in.

We all have PBDEs (fire of treatment time. Given as P5P, higher doses are needed, he retardants), phthalates and more. Detoxification needs to happen in the order that the body can handle.
Folic acid is a key nutrient in brain development. Folates Once ethyl mercury is introduced as thimerosol into the are critical enzyme co-factors for DNA and RNA synthesis body via injection, it is picked up by unmyelinated nerves and methylation.

Folic acid is synthetic oxidized folate not where it is initially taken up by the astrocytes. They become found in nature. Unmetabolized folic acid has an anti-folate ill and start failing in one of their most important jobs: to effect. Folinic acid is naturally occurring. In some, but not all create the blood brain barrier. Later, the mercury is taken up children it can be converted to metabolically active folates, by all protein molecules inside the brain and brain-cells: GAGs including the mitochondrial folate functions, and L-5 in the matrix, receptors on cell walls, enzymes, structural methyltetrahydrofolate (L-5MTHF – monoglutamate form), molecules and GTP, the enzyme which creates tubulin, .

The main volume of mercury is trapped in the connective (selectively in the brain). The brain is starved for folate. Give tissue of the muscles, bones, ligaments outside the CNS. It is both folinic acid for the mitochondrial functions (100-400 mcg also trapped in the lymphatic tissue and adipose tissue. Overall, four times per day) and MTHF to bypass the folate receptor only a small amount reaches the brain. The amount is problem in the brain (400-1200 mcg four times per day).
According to Dr. Klinghardt, there have been The order of the ethyl mercury elimination protocol is misunderstandings regarding B12 and folic acid. In addition very important. It is paramount that the body is treated by to folinic acid and MTHF, giving folic acid in combination clearing the excretory organs before treating the brain. If the with hydroxyl-B12 (5:2 ratio) is helpful when given at the brain is treated first, the toxins from the body will move into same time sublingually several times/ day. This combination the brain and the patient will be retoxified. Mercury and lead has been found to demethylate toxins (and makes them more have a lethal synergistic effect. Use an agent first that removes easily processed) and can be very effective for stims, tantrums only lead, and then the stronger agents. Start with EDTA and any daily acute crisis. Dr. Klinghardt says that it is best to (intravenous or suppository). Hair testing is inexpensive and use ART testing to find which form of folic acid is the right non-invasive. It can be helpful to monitor progress. Since it form for this particular patient today. Folic acid de-methylates does not require provocation, it can be done in very sensitive or ill children without concern.
