I like how she touches on multiple pieces of the puzzle…

What caused my son’s autism?

I’ll tell you this - it wasn’t genetics. We ran the tests, reviewed family history, did the scans. Nothing pointed to his genes.

Did I take Tylenol during pregnancy? Yes. A few times. Because it was the “safe” recommendation back then. (I wasn’t as holistic yet to know there were other options.)

Like every pregnant woman, I was also required to take folic acid. But folic acid is a synthetic, cheap version of folate. It doesn’t always convert well in the body, and in children with folate receptor autoantibodies or MTHFR variants, it can actually block folate from reaching the brain. That means speech, cognition, and neurotransmitter balance all suffer. Folinic acid, the active form, can bypass that block…but nobody told me that. Doctors don’t know. And it’s shown up to 60% of us have methylation issues - we can’t use folic acid.

Still, my pregnancy was healthy. My baby was healthy. He met his milestones. He was pure joy every day.

Then came his 18-month DTaP shot.

Within two hours, he spiked a 105.8 fever and had seizures. He was experiencing encephalitis. At the hospital, they gave him Tylenol, the only tool they knew. They meant well. But that combination of high aluminum from the vaccine, plus Tylenol shutting down glutathione (the body’s master detox pathway) it was too much.

Within 48 hours, my child regressed. He stopped speaking. Stopped interacting. His light dimmed.

Later testing revealed his aluminum levels were off the chart. He’d gotten the last dose in a multi-dose vial, where aluminum had settled. Tylenol wasn’t the cause alone. It was one piece of the puzzle.

Once we addressed aluminum, many of his “autism symptoms” improved. His speech returned. He’s been seizure-free for 9 years. His sensory issues are gone. He’s largely back in our world. He still has cognitive issues, but encephalopathy (caused from the vaccine) will do that.

And that’s why I share this: if it were “just genetics” or “just Tylenol,” we wouldn’t have seen this healing.

Parents, keep digging. The story is not over. There are thousands of kids like Noah, and they deserve answers. I think we have finally shifted on the right path!
