Autism is reversible, and the science to prove it already exists. This episode delivers a master class on the biological roots of autism, what&nbsp;actually triggers&nbsp;it, and the protocols that have helped real families recover their children, including one mom who sold everything she owned to make it happen.&nbsp;Host Dave Asprey sits down with Tracy&nbsp;Slepcevic, bestselling author of Warrior Mom: A Mother's Journey in Healing Her Son with Autism, certified integrative health practitioner, Air Force veteran, and founder of Autism Health, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating biomedical solutions for autism. Tracy has spent over 17 years researching treatments and therapies for autism and other neurological disorders, trained in complementary and alternative medicine, and built the Autism Health Summit into one of the most important annual gatherings for parents, physicians, and researchers in the autism recovery space. She is not a researcher&nbsp;observing&nbsp;from a distance. She is a mother who sold everything she owned, bartered for treatments, and traveled to Ukraine for stem cell therapy to recover her son Noah, who today lives a fully independent life, works full time, and travels the world alone.&nbsp;Together, Dave and Tracy tear&nbsp;apart&nbsp;the myth that autism is a fixed genetic condition and expose it for what it&nbsp;actually is: a biological cascade triggered by a recipe of environmental factors colliding with genetic susceptibility. They cover how mitochondrial dysfunction and chronic neuroinflammation combine to create the sensory overload and cognitive fog that defines autism, why healing the gut first is the non-negotiable foundation that determines whether every other treatment works, how glyphosate, toxic mold, heavy metals, volatile organic compounds, and vaccine injury each contribute to a compounding toxic load that crosses the threshold into autism, why plasmalogen supplements are producing results in non-speaking children that the medical establishment insists are impossible, and how AI is now accelerating the ability of parents and practitioners to identify personalized biological pathways and act on them in hours instead of months. Dave also shares his own journey reversing Asperger's syndrome over ten years through biology, mitochondrial repair, neuroplasticity retraining, and supplements, and explains why catching these conditions early and acting on them aggressively with functional medicine is the difference between a life of suffering and a life of superpowers.&nbsp;You'll&nbsp;Learn:&nbsp;<ul><li>Why autism is biological, not purely genetic, and what environmental triggers pull the trigger on susceptible children&nbsp;</li><li>How mitochondrial collapse creates the energy deficit that drives sensory overload, social withdrawal, and cognitive dysfunction in autism&nbsp;</li><li>Why healing the gut first&nbsp;determines&nbsp;whether every other autism treatment works or fails&nbsp;</li><li>What plasmalogen supplements are doing for non-speaking children and adults with neurological disorders&nbsp;</li><li>How glyphosate, toxic mold, heavy metals, and volatile organic compounds compound into the recipe that causes autism&nbsp;</li><li>Why AI is transforming the ability of autism parents to&nbsp;identify&nbsp;personalized amino acid and supplement protocols overnight&nbsp;</li><li>How Dave reversed Asperger's syndrome through mitochondrial repair, neuroplasticity retraining, and targeted supplements&nbsp;</li><li>What stem cell therapy&nbsp;accomplished&nbsp;for Tracy's son Noah within&nbsp;30 days&nbsp;of treatment&nbsp;</li><li>Why genetic testing before any vaccine or medication schedule should be mandatory for every child&nbsp;</li><li>How to clean your home environment of the VOCs, mold, and bacterial toxins that drive neuroinflammation in the whole family&nbsp;</li><li>Why the gifts that come with an autism diagnosis can become genuine superpowers once the biology gets fixed&nbsp;</li></ul>Thank you to our sponsors!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-&nbsp;BrainTap&nbsp;| Go to&nbsp;<a href="http://braintap.com/dave" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://braintap.com/dave</a>&nbsp;to&nbsp;get $100 off the&nbsp;BrainTap&nbsp;Power Bundle.&nbsp;-&nbsp;AirDoctor&nbsp;| Go to&nbsp;<a href="https://airdoctorpro.com/daveasprey" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://airdoctorpro.com/daveasprey</a>&nbsp;and save up to $300 on Air Purifiers.&nbsp;-&nbsp;Puori&nbsp;| Go to&nbsp;<a href="http://puori.com/DAVE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Puori.com/DAVE</a>&nbsp;or use code DAVE at checkout to get 32% off your&nbsp;Puori&nbsp;Fish Oil subscription.
