If you really want the answer to all these mysterious neurological disorders -- not just the ones we have names for today, but the ones that will be named in the future -- then all you have to do is examine what the body is exposed to. Consider everything that touches the intestines, the lungs and the skin. If it contains synthetic chemicals, it's going to promote cancer and neurological disorders.
The fact that these neurological disorders all have complex-sounding names is just a distraction from what's truly causing them. |
| There certainly isn't a disease caused by lack of pharmaceuticals, so treating them with drugs is ridiculous. Most neurological disorders are caused by nutritional deficiencies combined with exposure to environmental toxins. If you really want the answer to all these mysterious neurological disorders -- not just the ones we have names for today, but the ones that will be named in the future -- then all you have to do is examine what the body is exposed to. Consider everything that touches the intestines, the lungs and the skin. |

But a shaky voice can also be a sign of more serious neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease.
SLURRED SPEECH
SIGN OF THE TIMES
Slurred speech at a cocktail party is likely to be a telltale sign of having had one too many. On the other hand, slurred speech—medically known as dysarthria—can signal a variety of medical conditions. For example, it can signal low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), a common complication of diabetes, as well as neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease. |

The fact that these neurological disorders all have complex-sounding names is just a distraction from what's truly causing them. Giving a disease a name implies that modern medical practitioners know how to eliminate it. But they don't. Treating symptoms is not the same as helping a patient resolve the underlying conditions that caused the disease in the first place.

MSG is a dangerous excitotoxin linked to neurological disorders such as migraine headaches, Alzheimer's disease, loss of appetite control, obesity and many other serious health conditions. Manufacturers use MSG to add flavor to dead-tasting processed meat products.
Essentially, dead meat products look and taste dead (because they are), so meat companies use the following three ingredients to make them look fresh and taste interesting:
Sodium nitrite makes the meat look red and fresh. (But it promotes cancer.)
MSG makes the meat taste savory. (But it causes neurological disorders. |

Other illnesses and conditions that have been associated with canola oil consumption include loss of vision and a wide range of neurological disorders.
How can this government be so reassuring when Canola oil has been around for a short number of years and long-term effects may not develop before 3-5 years? Is it not also strange that the FDA allowed the canola industry to avoid the lengthy and expensive approval process, including medical research on humans? |

For children with neurological disorders or asthma, transdermal magnesium is like an oxygen mask.
Dr. Mayhill tells us, "One injection of 2mls of 50% magnesium sulphate (lgm MgS04, or lOOmgs elemental Mg or 4 mil-limols) will usually keep levels up for two weeks. However, some people need them more often. By the third week, levels will usually have fallen again.
This is the only method that has worked for some, but it is tedious to have to keep injecting. Furthermore, because a concentrated solution is being injected the procedure, described below, is a painful one. |

A watery mouth can signal some more serious conditions such as gastric ulcers, liver disease, pancreatitis, neurological disorders, and esophageal obstruction or cancer. On a more positive note, it may also be an early clue that you're pregnant.
WARNING SIGN
If you start foaming at the mouth, you may fear the worst—rabies. However, unless you've recently been bitten by an animal, you probably don't have this life-threatening disease. More likely, your frothy mouth is a sign of dry mouth or diabetes. |

Ahmet Hoke, associate professor of neurology and neuroscience at Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions and a colleague of Petri's who treats numerous patients with autoimmune neurological disorders, explains, "Most of the autoimmune patients we see here have already been to several doctors and often they've been struggling for diagnoses for years. We see those patients who slip through their doctors' diagnostic fingers."
PATIENTS ON THE SIDELINES
Patients like Jan often feel they pay a high price for the fact that so many doctors remain ignorant of the autoimmune-disease epidemic. |

Smell testing is an important diagnostic tool to help differentiate these neurological disorders from other disorders.
SPEAKING OF SIGNS
The taste and the sense of smell form but one sense, of which the mouth is the laboratory and the nose the chimney.
—Brillat-Savarin, the father of modern gastronomy, in The Physiology of Taste, 1825
Being Supersensitive to Smell
Do you turn up or wrinkle your nose at smells no one else seems to notice? Just as the young woman in the Danish fairy tale "Princess and the Pea" was overly sensitive to touch, some people are hypersensitive to odors. |

When dealing with autism spectrum and other neurological disorders in children it is important to know the signs of deficient magnesium: restlessness, can't keep still, body rocking, grinding teeth, hiccups, noise sensitive, poor attention span, poor concentration, irritable, aggressive, ready to explode, easily stressed. When it comes to autistic children today we need to assume significant magnesium deficiency for multiple reasons.
The foods they are eating are stripped of magnesium because of soil deficiencies in vital minerals. |

Instead, cancer and neurological disorders arise over years of time as a result of assorted triggers in our lives that may reflect where we have worked, what we have eaten, and where we happen to live now and in the past. The difficulties of unraveling the complex factors that contribute to current patterns of disease cannot be overstated. But their complexity does not mean that they need to remain unresolved mysteries.
We are heavily invested in doing things as we always have, working out of places that have just been that way forever. |

New research shows that high amounts of a toxin called HNE (4-hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal), with connections to heart disease and neurological disorders, accumulate in vegetable-based cooking oils that are heated or reheated for hours at a time (fast-food restaurant, anyone?). HNE forms in especially high amounts in polyunsaturated oils—including canola, corn, soybean, and sunflower. (It does not arise in saturated fats.) "There's a tremendous literature in biochemistry on HNE, a library of studies going back twenty years. |

Diet sodas are even worse, since they contain chemical sweeteners linked to neurological disorders and learning disabilities.

Air fresheners contain cancer-causing chemicals. Unleashing them in the house exposes children to these chemicals, promoting asthma and other respiratory problems. If you value the health of your children, avoid air freshener products and just use essential oils or citrus peels instead. (Peel an orange and hang the peel in your kitchen.)

More than 400,000 of these soldiers are ordered to take an experimental nerve agent medication called pyridostigmine, which is later believed to be the cause of Gulf War Syndrome -- symptoms ranging from skin disorders, neurological disorders, incontinence, uncontrollable drooling and vision problems -- affecting Gulf War veterans (Goliszek; Merritte, et al.).

It is bedrock science that connects magnesium to neurological disorders.2
Magnesium deficiency causes serotonin-deficiency with possible resultant aberrant behaviors, including depression, suicide or irrational violence.
Paul Mason
Magnesium of course is not the only nutrient whose deficiency is leading to broad problems of mind and emotion. Zinc is also an important mineral and is involved with psychiatric disorders. Over 90 metallo-enzymes require zinc and the functioning of the brain is dependent on adequate levels of zinc. |

The dangers of vaccines
What's clear is that there is a substantial and scientifically validated link between vaccinations and neurological disorders in children. Maryland state officials apparently have no concern over this matter and are enforcing mandatory vaccinations as if the injections were entirely harmless. This myopic view of the safety of pharmaceuticals is typical of state officials and conventional medical doctors, both of whom are almost always influenced to a large degree by the financial aims of powerful pharmaceutical companies. |

These sweating disorders can also signal some serious neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's disease and Guillain-Barre syndrome (see Chapter 7), an autoimmune nerve disorder that causes numbness, weakness, and sometimes paralysis of the limbs.
Lastly, little or no sweat may also signal peripheral neuropathy, which is common among diabetics (see Chapter 7) and autonomic neuropathy, a condition involving damage to the nerves that regulate sweating, heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, and other key body functions. Interestingly, autonomic neuropathy itself often signals diabetes. |
