A basic explanation of why some people are harmed by vaccines or develop modern disorders like Autism, ADHD, Fibromyalgia and IBS (and some don't)
Understanding the MTHFR gene and the impact of microplastics
I would like to beg medical professionals to do one thing prior to prescribing any medication (including vaccines):
Test for the MTHFR gene variant.
I would like to beg anyone struggling with undiagnosable or chronic illness to do one thing:
Test for the MTHFR gene variant.
20-40% of the population have variations to this gene. It relates to your body’s ability to process folic acid, a type of vitamin B. What it causes is a decreased ability to eliminate toxins from your body.
We are living in a time of unprecedented longevity, sanitation, and access to calories. At the same time we are bombarded with toxins and pollutants.
Some of these pollutants are environmental. Others are deliberately delivered. Vaccines, for instance, contain aluminum and other metals to stimulate the immune response.
They have found a correlation between BPA and Autism. But why are we able to blame the toxins in a water bottle, yet not ask about the toxins in a pharmaceutical?
Could it have something to do with the lobbying power, and advertising budget, of one industry vs the other?
I am humbly suggesting that the simplest way to resolve the Autism / vaccine debate would be to test kids for a MTHFR genetic variant and then test for heavy metals.
I would bet money that a statistical difference could be found in the level of metal toxicity of vaccine-injured and non-injured children.
I’m convinced most modern disorders are simply a body’s manifestation of a toxic load. Some bodies may struggle more with certain toxins than others, or have different vulnerabilities. One person may experience digestive issues, another neurological. The disorder is just a label for a bundle of symptoms. Essentially, we’re poisoned.
This conviction is based on my life. I have the variant, I have IBS, and I have something that doesn’t exist. We’ll call that nonexistent thing “adult onset ADHD.”
Twenty years ago when all these symptoms started, tests showed I had hormone imbalances and heavy metal toxicity.* My adult life has been a series of pilgrimages, escapes, obsessive research, tearful doctor visits, and passionate rallies in response to one 18-month period when my brain and body broke and no one could tell me why.
The unanswered question at the time was How did I get exposed to this? But now we know microplastics carry metals and other toxins into our bodies, as well as mimicking or blocking hormones themselves.
The reason so many young men have lower T levels and body weight. The reason ADHD and Autism are rampant. The reason your guts don’t work. The reason we feel like crud.
Microplastics carry metals into your system, as do vaccines. If your body is not equipped to rapidly remove them, they cause serious problems.
We’re also exposed to countless other pollutants beyond metals - from the antidepressants in our water supply to the Roundup sprayed on the wheat used to make your toast.
More than half the population can theoretically “take it,” because they can take it away.
The rest of us can’t. We have multiple challenges:
Making detox a part of our daily routine
Preparing our own food
Adjusting our lifestyle
And most importantly of all, asserting ourselves. Claiming credibility. Focusing our arguments, organizing our points, clutching our notes to our heart, and calmly demanding consideration.
I can’t eat that. I can’t process that. I can’t be around that. I can’t do that.
Or, my kid can’t. My partner can’t.
My community can’t.
What can we do? Relearn the pleasures of a simpler life. The only path to health is to grow, cook, and make your life yourself. When we hand it to others, we give away our ability to make the best choices for our own health and wellbeing.

*I can never actually remember if it was mercury or arsenic. I did just find the lab tests again recently, but they’re in the garage, and I’m not. It doesn’t technically matter because mainstream medical typically won’t chelate civilians. In their rulebook, heavy metal toxicity doesn’t happen to normal people. The naturopaths that I saw at the time were overwhelmed and basically prescribed cabbage and salt baths. I haven’t had the heart to test again in the twenty years since. I manage symptoms with stress management, diet, and herbs.
