Dr. Nemechek's hypothesis is that the failure of the body to heal itself is because of the failure of the brain and the autonomic nervous system. In the book, he brilliantly and simply explains the mechanisms at play that results in autistic spectrum disorders in children, and chronic conditions in adults - which are often undiagnosable, untreatable, and dismissed by mainstream medicine/doctors. The food-based method laid out by Dr. Nemechek is aimed at treating small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) to restore gut microbiota balance and at reversing autonomous nervous dysfunction. It is easy to understand, inexpensive and simple to follow - but it does need constant, dedicated work by parents & patients. 5 months into the protocol, my family has come back from the brink of despair and stepped off the hamster wheel of (treating) chronic illness. This book and the community around the Nemechek Protocol has helped us manage some major issues (food sensitivities, anxiety, anger, tantrums, rage, chronic fatigue, b12 deficiencies and more) which were unresolved by other methods (Biomed, supplements, diets etc) for years. For autism families, this is the single most important resource they'll need to change the course of their lives.
I have lived through the experience of dramatic worsening of my health time and again since childhood following antibiotics, vaccines, allergy testing, surgery, and the like. It has been an absolute nightmare. But I’m happily recovering, after over 26 years! This book pieces it all together and just gives so much hope. Don’t let the simplicity of the Nemechek Protocol fool you! I’ve been on far more intense protocols for far longer, and I’ll just say I wish I’d known about Dr Nemechek when I got really sick 5 years ago. I recommend this to anyone wanting to repair their health, regardless of age. You won’t regret it.
My daughter is 3 and has speech and gross motor delays. I started this protocol this summer around the same time we went gluten and dairy free. Within 2 weeks, both school and her therapists approached me and said how she was engaged more and having more conversations. A month later at my sons party my friends and family noticed and commented similarly. I can’t thank Dr. Nemechek enough for this. Make sure you follow it precisely or you may not reap the benefits.
I can't say enough great things about this book and how it's changed my grandsons life! For anyone who has a loved one with autism this book helps so much. After 3 months I can see so many changes with grandson. His speech is finally starting to come thru. He's more aware and focused. Its day and night! I can't wait to see how he will be months from now! It's like growing hair.... time and patience. Thanks Dr. Nemechek
This book is very easy to read and follow. Dr. Nemechek has put it into simple terms that anyone can understand. I am following the protocol along with my autistic son. Hoping this will be what brings my son all the way to recovery. He has come a long way with biomedical treatment, but this protocol is the easiest so far to follow and makes sense. Great book! Buy it. You won't regret it!
We have had our 3 year old ASD son on this protocol for a month now. The results leave us stunned and amazed. We are only sorry we did not discover this sooner. If you’ll try anything- try this. Facebook has many support groups as you learn about the protocol as well.
The best book for parents who want to help their children with developmental disorders like ADHD, Autism, seizures, anxiety or SPD.The book is effortless to read while the Protocol is even easier to follow. Most importantly, it actually works!If there’s only one book that you need to guide you in helping your struggling kid. This is the one!
I work in the health industry and have read almost every book out there that relates to gut health. There is nothing out there like this one. I have never seen such a clear, concise, and accurate detailing of what happens when we lose gut health. If you have digestive issues, read this book. If you have chronic illness, read this book. And of course, if you have a child who is struggling, for any reason, read this book.
We have seen such a massive change in our son after 18 months on this protocol. I believe he will eventually lose his ASD diagnosis if his healing continues on this trajectory. This protocol is so easy and inexpensive--do your child a huge favor and give it a try.
I love this book. Dr. Nemecheck really understand how autism like behavior occurs and how to fight it. He does a really good job of explaining it all. The book is an easy read because he breaks it all down over and over again. I loved how it was written. There wasn't too many medical terms that went over my head.M.J.
So much information and yet so easy to understand. Dr. Nemechek answers so many questions from ANYONE for free from on his website, which is not common is it? I say give it a try. We started our child a few weeks ago and are already seen results. I have a strong feeling this is going to work in the long run, I wish I had found him before, THANKS DR. NEMECHEK!!!
Everyone should read this book and tell their friends about it. It makes perfect sense why there are problems with the brain's inability to do it designed function. The author is revealing his documented research, personal case work, and his technique. He is not selling/manufacturing any products to take, but they are available in stores. We see the difference in our family member who is on the protocol.
If you have a child that is cognitively impaired, GET THIS BOOK. We began the protocol not expecting much but have seen great strides in our 4 year old daughter. She is now engaging with others and interested in being a part of a group. I believe this may be her ticket to living a more normal life. Thank you Dr. N for restoring hope.
My son (autism, developmental delay) started the protocol 5 months ago. It has truly been life changing for him. Could not recommend this more. ❤
Just 2 weeks on this protocol and my son is thriving. It's unbelievable how only 3 simple ingredients can bring about a change so great. I am amazed. Every parent with an Autistic child should read this book. Dr N is a life saver.
