Episode Highlights with Jodie Dashore, PhD

Plant based approach to autism, mold/biotoxin illness, CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome), PANS

​

CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) – better known as Mold/Biotoxin

• Illness. There is a genetic predisposition to this in approximately 25% of the population.

  • In the population with HLADR predisposition

  • The innate immune system does not present biological toxins to the cellular/adaptive immune system for antibody production and subsequent immunity.

  • The innate immune system continues to be stimulated, without the relief of the adaptive immune system. Therefore, CIRS results.

  • Biological toxins are both fat and water soluble.

  • Mold/Biotoxins can disrupt sex hormones, adaptogens, and multiple systems in the body. This can include unexplained weight gain despite significant efforts for weight loss.

  • Autism is sometimes a symptom of biotoxin illness and can be reversed through treating the biotoxin illness

  • A practitioner can look for infection, and inflammation in autistic patients, and search for the cause of any found infection (fungal, bacteria, tick-borne, viral, etc.)

    • Headaches from MARCoNS - this results in stim-behavior in autism.

    • Treating MARCoNS can also drastically reduce symptoms such as bed-wetting

    • MARCoNS (Multiple Antibiotic Resistant Coagulase Negative Staphylococci) – like MRSA “on steroids”

    • MARCoNS colonizes deep in the sinuses and are able to produce biofilms to hide from immune system, and release exotoxins A & B which cross the BBB. These exotoxins seems to target the hypothalamus. Also triggers cytokines & increased inflammation.

    • Critically important to look for MARCoNS in people with exposure to water damaged buildings, or with tick-borne illness

      • Can order testing through your provider – deep nasal swab test

      • CIRS is a trigger for PANS

      • Treatment for MARCoNS – Formula 1 NSB – nasal spray broad spectrum, proprietary herbal spray. Only natural, herbal spray which has been proven to eradicate MARCoNS and the associated biofilm, and any fungal issues within sinuses

    • Many children on the spectrum may have been exposed to water damaged buildings, or have underlying tick-borne illness

    • Mycoplasma (common co-infection with Lyme) suppress immunity.

      • Mycoplasma can suppress IGM, resulting in very high IGG numbers, therefore causing missed diagnoses with lab results

      • Chrohn’s / Colitis can also be a symptom of underlying biotoxin illness

        • Western Blot has a 42% reactivity result – not reliable. Urine test can be more reliable.

        • Several lab tests available for Lyme and mold illness – but the lab results are not the sole determiner. A Lyme or mold literate practitioner should be able to diagnose.

  • The BioNexus Approach to Biotoxin Illness – A Step-by-Step Guide to Completely Plant-Based Treatment Options – Dr. Dashore’s book which lays out her entire 7-Step Protocol

    • Dr. Dashore uses Camel’s Milk as an alternative to intravenous treatments for autism, PANS, etc. Camel’s milk produces no antibodies - IGG, IGM, IGA, and more.

      • Effective for gut regulation. Once the detoxification pathways have been addressed, and toxins have been removed, patients can very slowly build up use of camel’s milk, sometimes beginning with drop-dose.

        • Yields amazing results when administered properly.

      • Be aware – camel’s milk is extremely potent for patients with biotoxin illness. Drinking this without practitioner support can result in a herx reaction.

      • Dr. Dashore uses it as a true medicine.
