A Few years ago I received a heartbreaking email from a friend of mine whose child was diagnosed with autism. She now has 3 children with autism and has become an activist for autism awareness. I’m excited today because I found an amazing study that found that a new natural healing treatment offers hope for child autism. One premise of this study is a huge breakthrough for those who want to better understand autism: some autism may be linked to allergens. So what they did is used this intolerance treatment (NAET) to test and treat the kids for the things they reacted to the most.
New Natural Healing Treatment Offers Hope for Child Autism
The study included 60 children (2.5-10 years old) with a diagnosis of autism who were randomly assigned to either the treatment or control groups. The treatment group consisted of 26 boys and 4 girls and the control group included 25 boys and 5 girls. The 30 children in the treatment group received NAET treatments for 50 key allergens for 1 year. The children in the (non-blinded) control group did not receive any NAET treatments. Each group was allowed to continue with any other therapies they had been receiving. The NST (kinesiology/muscle testing) was used to determine which substances triggered sensitivity reactions in each child and NAET acupressure treatments were then used to eliminate the sensitivities.
Fifty-six children (26 in the NAET-treated group and 30 in the control group) completed the study. After 1 year, the children receiving NAET treatments exhibited clinically dramatic and statistically highly significant improvements in performance (p<.0001 vs the control group), including a:
- Mean 68.4% decrease in the total Autism Research Institute Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ARI-ATEC) Score
- 64% to 82% mean decreases on the 4 ARI-ATEC subtests
- 47.4% average increase in the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) and
- Decrease of 85% in the total Allergy Symptom Rating Scale (ASRS Score)
The improvements were life changing. Twenty-three of the 30 autistic children in the NAET treatment group were able to return to regular school classes with their healthy, non-autistic peers after 1 year of treatment while all of the 30 children in the untreated control group continued to require special education.

NAET is also related to BIE (a technologically modified intolerance treatment based on Nambidripad’s work)
