Autism and Activation: Understanding the Brain, the Gut and What's Actually Possible

Dr. Ron, a chiropractor and neurofeedback specialist, presented a webinar on autism and cellular health, sharing his personal journey sparked by his daughter's OCD diagnosis. He highlighted the alarming increase in autism prevalence, from 1 in 10,000 in the mid-20th century to 1 in 31 children today, attributing this surge to environmental toxins, poor diet, and chemical exposure rather than improved diagnostics. He stressed that autism is not just a behavioral condition but involves systemic issues like chronic inflammation, digestive problems, immune dysregulation, and oxidative stress, often accompanied by comorbidities such as anxiety, ADHD, and sleep disorders. Central to his explanation is the role of low glutathione, a master antioxidant reduced by 37% in autistic individuals, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and a cascade of cellular damage, including leaky gut and impaired brain function. Dr. Ron proposed that Life Vantage products, particularly Protandim (NRF2 activator), NAD synthesizer, P-84 probiotic, and Axial, can address these root causes by boosting glutathione, reducing oxidative stress, supporting gut health, and enhancing brain communication. He emphasized the importance of the gut-brain axis, noting that 70% of the immune system is linked to gut health. He concluded by encouraging parents to take proactive control of their health, sharing personal stories of vaccine injuries, and urging advocates to approach conversations with confidence and care, as Life Vantage exists to empower people to reclaim their well-being amidst a world of increasing health challenges.

Thank you for being with us. We are so blessed and honored to have Dr. Ron with us tonight. Dr. Ron is a dear friend and business partner. We've known each other now for a few years and I have to say every time we get him on our webinar and our podcast, we have a great time and he's got a lot of information to share. So Dr. Ron tonight is going to be covering the topic of autism and activation and you are going to learn a lot tonight because Dr. Ron is the expert. Dr. Ron has been a chiropractor now for 28 years. He's practiced neurofeedback therapy now for over 15 years and he works with children and adults with neurological issues. So all along the spectrum, autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, insomnia in various neurological issues. He's also a father of three, husband of 28 years and a very passionate life-fantished consultant. So thank you, Ron, for being with us. What you just give us a background is to how you came in to not just being a chiropractor but why you're so passionate on supporting and working with kids and adults on the spectrum. Well, first of all, I had a daughter that had OCD back when she was 10 years old and it started, that's how I started my trip into neurofeedback because I had a help of daughter. I didn't want to put her on medications. And when I started to see the results of people's lives changing, I said, this is what I want to do. And in the world of neurofeedback, every seminar I would go to, they would talk about oxidative stress. But they never had an answer for oxidative stress. And they said, well, if you get oxidative stress on the control, you can help these patients even better. Well, then again, someone came to me four or five years ago, four years ago and started talking to me about life vantage. And I was like, this company is so meant for me and what I do in practice. But it's also meant for any person on the spectrum. I'm going to give it out to you tonight. Guys, when we start tonight, this conversation, how many of you feel uncomfortable talking about life vantage to people on the spectrum? Put a one in the chat just so I get an idea because my goal tonight is to make sure when you walk away from this, that you're going to look at autism completely like it was made for life vantage. And it was, because life vantage was made for people on cellular health and how cellular damages. Now, I'm going to pull up my slides and just get started with them. So here's my presentation. It's actually called autism through the light, through the lens of cellular health and understanding stress. My decadria function, the gut brain access and nutritional support and our job here is to help families understand this emerging science. And I guess I hold thing to get on this slide there. I'm not very good at making slides, but autism spectrum disorder. It's known as a lifelong neurodevelopment condition that affects persons community communication, interaction behavior. It's called the spectrum because the experience and symptoms vary widely and so many different individuals have significantly different things going on and need different support. Now, according to the diagnostic guidelines, individuals with autism spectrum disorder, variations in two main areas, social communication interaction and restrictive behaviors. Well, I'm here to tell you we need to look at this differently. Okay? Because the future of autism care does not live in looking at symptoms or systems, but understanding how this whole connection of the brain, gut and immune system and sell your health work together to support each unique individual. Now, do you have any questions for me, Jenny or you? No, you go and I, how about we go through this and then I'll ask you questions at the end. Let's do it. So you know, these are some obvious stats for most people. If you're in the spectrum, spirits conversation, you'll know that over 8 million people in this country have autism that the number has drastically changed over the past two decades. Back in the 1950s, autism is one in every 10,000 in the 60s, one in 10,000 in the 70s, one in 10,000 in the 80s, one in 10,000. And then something started to happen in the 90s. Then it went to one in 5,000. Then it went down to one in every 2500 and then to every 300 and down down to one in every 31 children in the United States right now are diagnosed with autism. Some people like to say, well, we have better ways of looking at it. Well, I'm going to hear it tell you that's not the case. There's more damage to people today. There's more, there's more hijacking of our health ever been before. It goes into things, but I'm not going to get into it, but plastics, foods, environmental toxins and all this has a huge impact on people. And the autism spectrum disorder tremendously is variable from person to person. Okay. Now autism is more than behavior. Many people just have to start to realize that these people on the spectrum, they have chronic inflammation, digestive issues, immune dysregulation, meaning weaker immune system. I'm going to explain all this in real detail in a few seconds. Sleeping problems, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, attention difficulties and anxiety. Does anybody think that our products don't fit all those things that they struggle with? I think so. Now I'm not here to say we can fix autism, but we can definitely help people with a lot less of the problems that they have. Now autism rarely travels alone, right? So I gave it got these stats and I kind of laugh at this guy making the face because that's how I was looking at this and going, oh my god, 40 to 70% of all people on the spectrum have a digestive intestinal problem. 50 to 80% of them can't sleep at night. Anxiety disorders, 20 to 40% higher, ADHD, 30 to 60% might acondual disease, 31% and oxidative stress markers are elevated in all the research. Okay. Now I want to take you through the process. The process is really a complex one, but it starts off with low glutathione in the body. Now low glutathione is decreased by 37% in people on the spectrum. They have not the ability to make glutathione and that leads to mitochondria dysfunction. Like now when you have less mitochondria, you have less oxygen to the brain and you produce less ATP. Now ATP is really important when we get to the leaky gut conversation, but less ATP also means higher amounts, I mean less mitochondria means higher amounts of oxidative stress. oxidative stress is going to damage the cells in the body and those fats and proteins that line the cells and it's going to create all kinds of other problems, including problems around methylation in the brain. Now then we get to that leaky gut conversation, right? Now you've got smooth muscles that use ATP that can't utilize it. So what happens? Now you can't squeeze the bowel movement through the system and now you're starting to see constipation where this sits in there, putrifies, starts to damage the walls of the intestines, creating all kinds of other problems, pain, stomach aches and these toxins, they don't just live in the gut, they get into the bloodstream and as eventually with the more those toxins get into the bloodstream, they get around the blood brain barrier and they impact the brain. Now GABA is there to understand both serotonin and GABA, as you see I'm still learning how to do these slides. GABA and serotonin help calm the brain for GABA and serotonin helps reduce depression. So a lot of these people on the spectrum have anxiety because they don't make a hormone like called GABA and they don't make serotonin which creates depression. Now this is understanding, I can understand a little bit here. Glutathion is our master antioxidant. You cannot buy vitamins that do what your body's glutathione does and if you hear anybody ever say, well, I supplement with glutathione, that's good. You might as well throw your money in the garbage because glutathione is made in the body. Synthetic glutathione is not going to be absorbed by the body. So when we make glutathione, it's the master or it's a man, master antioxidant in the body. It detoxifies the body, it gets rid of heavy metals, environmental toxins and metabolic waste so the body can excrete them safely. Oxidated damage reduction, well, you've heard of this oxidative stress thing, right? This is the reason why we do life advantage. It's directly neutral, I'm sorry, I get excited here. It is directly neutralizing reactive oxygen species. That means oxidative stress is when cells turn to like brown apples. We don't want to see ourselves be that way. We want to see healthy, vibrant cells and our immune and brain health is directly related to oxidative stress and mitochondria function. This is all right out of the National Institute of Health and so why did children have often have lower levels? Well, this is another thing. We have damage to the body. Something has done it. What is it? I'm not really going to sit here and argue with anybody. I'm not going to tell you my opinion, but there's damage done and when that damage is done, it stops methylation. Methylation helps the brain function, right? It also, the body becomes metabolically, can't break down things like glutathione, as it stops to be being made. The lower it gets, that's due to more chronic oxidative stress. So we're going to see this continue on and it gets worse and worse than these kids. It doesn't get better. Now, states of mitochondria and gut brain access. 80% of people on the spectrum show signs of in-parent cellular energy, elevated oxidative stress, and higher chronic gastrointestinal issues. So what are we going to give them? We're going to give them the greatest thing we can because the truth is life vantage makes products that change the world and parents, they don't know about this. If you knew the economic costs of what it has to be, you have a child on the spectrum. It's around 1.4 to 1.8 million dollars in a lifetime. Now for a few bucks a month, we could help these people do all kinds of great things, right? Pretend them NRF2 supporting the body's natural antioxidant response. What does that do? It increases glutathione by 300%. It reduces oxidative stress by 40%. It increases catalycine superoxide dismutase, all enzymes that help turn bad stuff in the liver to good stuff, right? Turning into peroxide in water rather than toxicity in the body. Pretend them NRF1, build the mitochondria, the mitochondria of the powerhouse, the cellular energy, and they help the body move ATP, produce ATP, and cause smooth muscle function. And then also NAD, I'm going to show you something about NAD in a minute that'll blow your hair back. NAD supports cellular metabolism. And what they're doing right now, "Oh, did I miss this? Did I got to go back here? Did I miss something on one of my slides?" Yeah, scientists are clean. I went to why do we have less glutathione? Scientists and clinicians are studying right now while they're nutritional and interventions, such as oral glutathione supplements, where precursors like NAC can help correct the imbalance and reduce problematic behaviors in autistic children. So let's go back to this, right here. NAD. If your body makes it, is it better than if you take it? You bet you. So try synthesizer. A lot of times people talk to me and they go, "Why do we need the NAD for the children when they really just need reduction of oxidative stress and for more mitochondria?" And the answer to that is, one, it actually helps build the glutathione. Two, it cleaves away all those dead cells that aren't working in the children and in anybody, right, for that matter. And also the NAD synthesizer also keeps the communication between the cells much healthier. That's why. Now, let's talk about this P-84 thing. Man, is this P-84 thing so important, right? Because when children have poor microbiome, then their body starts to tear away at that lining. And the bacteria that's in our gut, well, we need to feed that gut. We need to improve the digestion. We support our gut barrier. We calm the oxidative stress and we support this brain gut area. And this matters. Here's the big thing here. 70% of the immune system is directly related to the gut and the gut microbiome, which plays the huge role in our digestion, absorption of nutrients and immunionimization, regulation and communication with the brain. But why is that important? That's important because if you have putrid stuff sitting inside you, you're dying slowly. These kids don't have strong immune systems because they have low glutathione. So we create a healthier gut. What are we going to do for them? We're going to help boost their immune function. That's going to clean out the body. What is that going to do? That's going to give the opportunity for the tri-syndagyzer to work more effectively. Why? Because we get rid of waste that has less waste to clean out. The body starts to do better. That's an amazing thing. Now let's take a look at the next slide here. Axial. Now this guy's, I'm running through this, but Axial is so important for the brain. Every patient who walks in my office, when I do a brain map on somebody, so when people hear about neurofeedback, majority people don't have a clue what I'm talking about. I map people's brains with a QEG. I find that people have all kinds of issues. These issues are solved a lot of times with Axial, tri-syndagyzer, and also with the bio. I also like the collagen that I didn't talk about it much tonight. What do we want to talk about? Why Axial? Axial is brain food. I like the rocket ship in this thing because that's what I feel like it does. It turns the brain on. It allows the brain to be more alert. It calm and focuses the brain with alphanine. Alphaliponic acid is there for acetylcholine production and brain communication. All these people on the spectrum have low acetylcholine. They are much higher risks for Parkinson's and also Alzheimer's if they make it to that age. Their brains don't make acetylcholine. This alphaliponic acid helps build it in the body. El-tyrosine, dopamine and neuroeprenephrine synthesis, more dopamine, more neuroeprenephrine, the healthy of the brain, the healthy of the body. Be complex vitamins. Give energy to the body. That's why I like the rocket ship. Energy to the body, but also brings blood flow into the brain. Very important. Now, acetylcholine, that's the brain's energy. This here gives more energy effectively for the brain. When we get that pine bar extract, which helps protect the cells of the brain from oxidative stress. What is it? Support, focus, mental energy, mood, attention. We also see that it helps brain sell your health. It brings better, healthier mind, a conjured to the brain and better circulation. Now, I want to give you some final thoughts before we go to questions. Every kid is unique and there's no one size fits all approach. But life-vanaged products help with the cellular health, help reduce the oxidative stress, help build mind-acondria function, help the gut health and nutrition, and we can explore ways to see this thing in overall well health and well-being. Now, why do I do this? Here's the answer to your question. I think that autism, unfortunately, is something that has been hijacked. We have kids all over the country right now who, between what's put in their bodies at a very young age from the foods they eat, there's no food. I love this conversation very much. Go into your regular supermarket. You'll find the two aisles that are called health foods. You might find some organic produce. You might find some things that say they're not made with sugar or high-fructose clarn syrup, but the reality is you walk into that store. There's two aisles. The prices are four times the price and then you look at the rest of the store and what is that? Well, that's a chemical storm and I'm not going to use the word that I usually put there. Keep this PG tonight. But it's a storm and it's damaging and it creates this cascade of all the problems that these kids have. On top of that, what makes another scary, why I love to talk this conversation. Nobody's talking this way. Everybody thinks, well, you know, it just has something we have to deal with. We're just going to throw more money at this. This destroys families. This destroys a lot of moms can't work. They go to college, they get their education, they get a job, they have a child that gets on the spectrum and now they're home because they can't take care of their kids. So that impacts. Now we have special schools, special needs, things. This could have all been prevented and there's a, well, I'm not going to get into this. You can just say it. You know you're talking to over here. Well, the more vaccines we see, the higher the ratio or the lower the number of one and out of every got higher. So the more vaccines, the higher you saw autism and unfortunately, I don't need to hide it anymore. So I'm going to go over the place and you know, after the pandemic, if you didn't wake up to what's going on in the world, it's time to pull your head out of the ground and realize that this is serious. And you show me anybody who's got better. It's been serious, Dr. Ron. We're all of us crazies that have been talking about it for 70. I used to have a podcast on vaccines just, you know, raising the alarm. My son was vaccine injured when he was three by the MMR and that was 17 years ago. So. I didn't vaccinate my kids. Same story. Good friend of mine, his brother had a child who got the MMR shot. We didn't know anything about it. We just thought he went for a regular wellness checkup. This is a 1994 kid was genius. And two years old, do all the players on the meds could speak about each player. I'm sitting and going, this gets to a week later, the kid didn't speak another word. You start having seizures every day. When I went to chiropractic school, I heard this woman named Barbara Lofisher speak. He's awesome. I never. And when Barbara spoke, I called my friend up and said, Hey, you better get down here and meet this woman. Now he works for the children's health defense. So this name's Kevin Barry. But anyway, that for another time. Love it. Well, that's a great tip. You know, I mean, people can take it or leave it for how they want. I mean, the thing is, is that we're not making money off giving people advice. So, you know, I love it. I love that, you know, now is the time with the way that the world is going. That is why I love life, manage. I love activation because we're empowering people to take back their health, educating them on a platform, bringing them into a community of people that are awake. And ultimately, when you understand these things and when you, you know, take your health into your hands, that's really where the amazing thing happens. So you've covered so much tonight. We've talked about products, diet, activation. What else can you leave us with as we're wrapping up the podcast tonight? I know we covered so much, but what what piece of advice could you give to? You know a parent that might be Well, okay for parents struggling or anybody who's in this game This happened for a reason it's to expose the the darkness of what goes on in our world and Gods here with us and that's why life advantage exists because that pandemic of of autism Jumped in the 90s and then again the 2000s and by 2010, you know what happened this thing called the NRF 2 came around and it was the beginning and I really do believe that if you're gonna go out there and talk to people You should have no fear. You should know exactly what your products do You should know you should be excited about what you do. You shouldn't be afraid because what are you doing? You're there to help people and the greatest thing you could do for another human being is to Care about them and share with them if they say no, okay The least you know you tried right and and here's the thing most these people are struggling and so An a big heart and love is gonna go a lot further than need telling you. I know exactly what's the new kids needs to do No be loving be gentle be kind because these people have been through a lot You never see a kid who's on the spectrum. We start screaming in a restaurant and everybody starts looking around And they're like can't you shut your kid up? No, no, you can't shut the kid up. We have to have empathy and understanding So this is a heart company. I never I you know I've been in a few other network marketing companies never took it serious. This company has such amazing Opportunities to help people and Products you don't have to ever worry about your products. They're the best on the market I wouldn't give these to my patients if it wasn't the case But I have no qualms telling him the cost and because the cost is costing them a lot more than if they don't take it Yeah, I always like to say your health is an investment not an expense We have to think about it differently. You know, I know you talked about the cost of suit You know items in the supermarket, but it costs more to be sick at the end of the day So, you know, we have to balance what's important to us one of the things I did want to mention because I saw the question come through is How do you get a two-year-old to swallow a pill of NRF 2? So that's a question Yeah, you I don't know about your advice, but I'm taking what I've got still I'll take a mortar and pestle break it down make a smoothie and have the kid drink it All the nutrients are there or make gummies there's you can make homemade gummy bears or you know, that's you I don't know time in the kitchen. I mean, you know what? Ha ha ha I love you. You know, the type of loving mom that would make gummies. I gotta tell you There's so many putting it in Axio crushing it putting in an Axio Put it in chocolate like make a really healthy chocolate tree with it So and you can get that with the NRF one As well and that's what I love about the P84 is that it's powder and my my kids love the flavor of it It tastes more of a fruit So I actually put the P84 in a protein shake or smoothie for my kids and it's it's actually very easy to get down and it has a very good taste So I'll share you this the lot of these kids have major problems swallowing and taking things And you'll hear parents say to you, well, you know my kids allergic to everything Well, try this before you tell me you're allergic if you saw what's in our P84 There's nothing but fruits vegetables. It is amazing, but it does for the digestive track The binding of the locking up of this of the intestine track. I know we got a minute left I don't want to take more than 25 minutes. Oh, you're good. You're really good Okay, so top two products if you had to do two two two to start with Because we had that question top two you have to do and do you have to do a minimal rule synthesizer and P84 Okay, well that was three, but dr. Ron doesn't really like Okay, the tricinagizer which comes in one box that's one product You're you're such a rebel dr. Ron. I just love you. Thank you so much. I love you Don't hear a health. Sell your health. I love you too, but sell your health is the most important thing here Because if the cells are healthy like Your kid is going to do a lot better axiote I've seen people's kids handwriting change in five minutes from one packet of axiote I've seen kids walk in my office give them some strawberry axiote and they walk out smiling and their moms like the kid never smiles Why is he smiling? I don't know I love it. Maybe his brain's firing for the first time ever Absolutely. Well, thank you so much for being with us dr. Ron again. You'll find this on our podcast if you're listening to it on the recording Thank you so much for your wisdom and your knowledge and as always join us every Wednesday For our new topic and we will have you back on again. Thanks again. Thank you. Thank you all very much Love you very much and if I see you in convention in Utah come up and give me a hello. I love to say hello Thanks again take care everybody
