MTHFR and Hormone Replacement

I am the mother of a 3 year old boy who is nbaveronl and has been diagnosed with autism. It has only been two weeks since I came upon the vit D councils’ website after a year of searching for information that might be relevant to my son’s condition. There is a lot of information to weed through out there in the world of autism. Many of us can not get past the fact that our children are sick although we are leary of all the “magic pills” on the market. Anyways, I was actually disturbed when I read the content on the website because I remember seeing a doctor for interstitial cystitis several years ago and having him tell me that I had very low vit D levels. I remember thinking “I feel like I am dying and you are telling me to take a vitamin!” I so wish that I had taken his advice more seriously. Two weeks ago I immediately began giving my son vit D3. In a matter of days we saw major cognitive gains and just a greater level of all around health. Although I have no doubt that the current North American lifestyle puts one in more danger of vit D deficiency I believe that in our situation we are dealing with something that has been passed on genetically as most of the conditions referred to by the vit D council abound in every recorded generation of our family. An example would be that my husbands’ great grandfather a strapping man in his early twenties died in one day during the Spanish influenza post WW1 and many others since have become deathly ill after receiving flu vaccines. My niece was on life support for 9 days during the last swine flu epidemic. I have since learned that good vitamin D levels are vital for resistance to influenza. Prostate cancer, diabetes, hypothyroid, schizophrenia, bi-polar, cardiovascular disease are just some of the other illnesses in our family. It is my hope that it is not too late to restore what has been lost. Thank you so much for taking the time to put together this blog. We have already been very blessed by the work of the vit D council.
