Publisher's summary

Dr. Jerry Kartzinel and Jenny McCarthy have put together the first book that will give parents all the necessary information about the Defeat Autism Now (DAN) school of treating autism. Beginning with diagnosis, Dr. Kartzinel will show parents how to make simple changes to their child's environment and diet that are safe and easy for parents to try at home and that can result in marked improvements for autistic children. He will also explain some of the more advanced therapies that DAN doctors use and the way that parents, alongside a qualified medical professional, can determine whether or not such treatments would benefit their child.

The first book you need for autism recovery

My child went from meeting the diagnostic criteria for level two autism to recovered, and is in a typical classroom from following this book. We still are supporting speech and hyperactivity (he has an IEP for speech and ADHD so we have some healing left to go). This book gave me hope when Doctors said there was none and my child back. For chelation, I want to tell families to consider a zeolite spray like PBX pure body extra by touchtone essentials. We did everything in this book except for doing chelation through a biomedical doctor, and we did not do hyperbaric oxygen therapy. We did work with a naturopathic doctor eventually to monitor our work and to test metal levels. My son was full of metals from vaccines. I didn’t start working with the naturopath until several months into following the protocols in this book because I started to wonder when I would know when to stop or how and what to change. I say this to say you can get started with just this book. We did months of healing by just following this book and saw an immediate turnaround. And we use all natural medications such as CBD oil for hyperactivity. Recovery is possible. Do not give up or accept the conventional medical narrative about autism. Autism is treatable and full recovery is possible for some!

Great book for parents

It is a great book for parents to get better understanding about autism and how it is possible to work it through. It was an eye-opening story to me and I got some answers to my questions.

This book is dangerous if you listen

Jenny McCarthy has been on a crusade to eliminate vaccinations, despite their success reducing or eliminating dozens of nasty infections (some of which still plague the underdeveloped world) and despite the fact that dozens of studies have disproven any connection with autism. I would argue the modern vaccination system is the greatest achievement of modern medicine and has done more to eliminate death and sickness than any other treatment. Why does Jenny want to eliminate it, despite the benefits and the lack of downside risks? Presumably to sell books. She also advocates vitamins which have no demonstrated affect on autism (or anything else for that matter), and encourages heavy metal chelation, despite its limited benefits and heavy risks. This is a therapy that should only be discussed by medical practitioners in severe cases, and never by pop-healers who confuse gullible parents who are struggling with raising their children in a complex world. Avoid this book at all costs.
