Jenny McCarthy-whose bestselling books Louder Than Words and Mother Warriors told the stories of healing children with autism-teams up with a preeminent autism doctor to write the first book on a remarkably effective treatment.
In 2006, autism became the leading disorder affecting children in the United States. While diagnoses skyrocket and parents struggle to find help, a group of innovative doctors has been pioneering therapies and treatments that are remarkably effective in healing conditions associated with autism. As word spreads about these incredible discoveries- helped in part by Jenny McCarthy's book Louder Than Words- parents are desperate to learn about the biomedical therapies for themselves.
Since early intervention is key to a successful recovery, McCarthy has teamed up with Dr. Jerry Kartzinel, the doctor who successfully treated her son, to write the first book to give parents all the necessary information about biomedical treatment. Beginning with diagnosis, Dr. Kartzinel explains the different therapies that he uses. He shows parents how to make simple changes to their child's environment and diet that can result in marked improvements and are safe and easy to try at home. And finally he explains some of the more advanced therapies that many doctors use today, and the way parents, alongside a qualified medical professional, can determine whether or not such treatments would benefit their child.
For new parents, Dr. Kartzinel provides helpful guidelines on how to best protect their child from developing autism.

Autism, the authors believe, can be cured via dietary supplements of vitamin, minerals and enzymes that they just happen to sell and are heavily marketed and promoted throughout the book.
The book is written in a mock conversational style between the authors, where the author "Jenny" often refers to her "celebrity status" --- what that has to do with the topic of the book I don't know.
As the parent of an autistic child, I think this book is very dangerous. What makes it so dangerous is that it mixes scientifically based information with half-baked ideas or nonsense based on anecdotal evidence, thus implying they have equivalent credibility.
Autism is a complex disorder that is probably has multiple causes and is a brain dysfunction. The brain is a complex organ that is both highly sensitive and adaptive. So many of the "cures" may be the result the bodies own ability to heal/adapt itself, much like the spontaneous remission that cancer patients sometimes experience.

The book is well-written and clearly motivated by genuine care. But I am so deeply troubled by the anti-vaccination agenda of the author(s), a theory which has not found scientific validation. In interviews, the author has irresponsibly stated, "I do believe sadly it's going to take some diseases coming back to realize that we need to change and develop vaccines that are safe." This advice to forego vaccinations is not something I would feel comfortable giving a better review for.

I feel like I'm the only mom on earth wanting to PREVENT AUTISM. I read every word of this book and think that every parent should read it. There are things I will do differently knowing the risks. For instance thewre is a study showing a 200+% increase of boys who were vaccnated getting autism. This book has encoraged me to keep breastfeeding as a tempory vaccination, encouraged me to wait on vaccinations til he is older and more at risk. I will also never allow vaccinations when my child is sick or allow more than one at a time. I was surprised to learn that people who get vaccinations are not instructed the possible risks (like they are with any other medication). And how on earth are doctors allowing more than one vaccination to be given at once??? there is no study that has looked at combined risks!!! and I learned that some vaccinations have tons odf alluinum!! this is toxic too!! this is a must read!

I have two children that have been diagnosed with high functioning autism so this is a very personal matter for our family. We are very fortunate to have a friend who is a PHD/expert/national speaker on the brain. We've also been able to work with a research university regarding high functioning autism.
We would all like easy clear answers for autism. The medical field is definitely lacking clear treatment options for people with autism. What really aggravates me about this book is the strong opinions stated without credible research or evidence to back up their opinions. I would not be surprised after research comes out that some of the opinions in this book detrimental, a waste of time, and resources. We all need to push the envelope and look outside the box for answers. Jenny has approached this problem unconventionally and shared some of her insights. Please don't be fooled that this book is a complete guide. How can it be a complete guide with so much research going on?
If you want to read this book for an alternative perspective go ahead but keep a pound of salt next to you while you read.

I shared this excellent book with my daughter raising her five year old autistic son. Her remarks follow:
"This book is a wonderful resource for parents of autistic children! It is both helpful and insightful which every parent will find invaluable, who is working hard to learn & guide their autistic child to meet the challenges of life and to adjust to living in the real world."
