Instead of just focusing on the controversy or risks of misdiagnosis, you can pivot toward the benefits of finally having clarity through a late diagnosis, and then be empowered with actionable, natural strategies that align with what we do at Naturally Recovering Autism.

1. Clarity & Self-Understanding

• Many people spend years confused about why social situations, sensory environments, or certain tasks feel harder for them than for others. A diagnosis provides a framework — “Oh, that’s why.”

• This self-knowledge can reduce self-blame, shame, and anxiety.

  2. Access to Resources & Support

• Even later in life, a diagnosis can open doors to support groups, therapies, accommodations in work or school, and tools for managing sensory overload or executive function.
• Parents of children diagnosed later can finally advocate more effectively for educational resources.

  3. Direction for Healing & Growth

• Instead of trying random approaches, families (or adults themselves) can pursue strategies that actually match the needs of an autistic brain and body.

• You can move from “what’s wrong with me?” to “here’s how my brain works, and here’s what helps.”

Once someone receives a diagnosis — whether at 5, 15, or 55 — the question becomes: What can I do now?

Here are some natural interventions:

1. Nutritional & Gut Health Support

• The gut-brain connection is well-documented. Late-diagnosed individuals may realize their digestive issues, food sensitivities, or chronic inflammation have been compounding their challenges.
• Approaches: gluten/dairy-free diets, probiotics, gut-healing protocols, anti-inflammatory nutrition. Get my free food guide at autismcheatsheet.com...

Pesticide used on oats known to harm development, fetal growth and harming reproductive health later in life.

Asheville, N.C. – Aug. 25, 2025 – A new investigation by Moms Across America has found disturbing levels of a banned pesticide, chlormequat, in some of the most popular children’s cereals sold in the United States.

Given this disturbing finding, Moms Across America is calling on the administration to revise the recently leaked draft of MAHA Commission strategy report, which falls short in calling for increased policy enforcement to reduce exposure of harmful pesticides to our children and American families.

The findings raise serious concerns about food safety, particularly for children, and call into question the effectiveness of regulatory oversight by the Food and Drug Administration.

Chlormequat, which has been linked to infertility, cancer, and developmental harm, was detected in 11 out of 14 cereal samples tested. The highest level—134.16 parts per billion—was found in General Mills’ Honey Nut Cheerios. It is not permitted for use on food crops in the U.S., and it was illegal for any imported grains to contain detectable levels of it until 2018.

Key findings include...

This guide will cover how to get a vaccine exemption in each of the 50 United States.

Parents who choose vaccination exemption for their children do so because they believe that children get too many shots altogether, and they have valid concerns about serious side effects, such as autism. Ultimately, it is a parent’s choice to make the right decision for their child’s individual needs.

Types of Exemptions:

Medical Exemptions: These are granted when a child has a medical contraindication to a vaccine, such as allergies to vaccine components or a history of adverse reactions.

Non-medical Exemptions: These include:

• Religious Exemptions: Allowing exemptions based on religious beliefs that prohibit vaccination.
• Philosophical or Personal Belief Exemptions: Allowing exemptions based on personal or moral convictions against vaccination.

State Variations:

• • Medical Exemptions: All states and the District of Columbia allow medical exemptions for children unable to receive vaccines due to medical reasons. Typically, a medical exemption must be written by an MD or doctor of osteopathy (DO).
  • Religious Exemptions:
  • This exemption is based on the First Amendment, the right to freely hold and exercise religious beliefs. Most states allow religious exemptions, with only a few (like California, New York, and West Virginia) not allowing any non-medical exemptions...

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...

Podcast Interview on Natural Allergy Elimination with Paula Vetter

Your child may have obvious allergies to certain pollen’s or foods, but there are many other unknown possibilities, as well. Natural allergy elimination can desensitize the body from all kinds of issues that are affecting his immune system, his brain, and much more. These compounds are in foods and chemicals found in everyday life.

By getting rid of allergies the immune system is freed up to work where it is needed. During a session for natural allergy elimination the practitioner is able to detect which meridians pathways of the body are being affected such as anatomy, physiology, brain, and circulatory systems. Acupressure points are stimulated which opens a gateway to the immune system, and tells it to recognize the product as normal, a correct way to respond.
