It’s all just been a little (ok, a lot!) overwhelming. I went from being what I thought was “healthy” to being diagnosed with 7 chronic conditions within a year following my Lyme disease diagnosis. I completely understand your frustration! Well, around day 8 of the Nemechek protocol, I noticed that my lymph nodes weren’t swelling as bad after eating! Granted, it’s only a small difference, but there definitely IS a difference. I can’t tell you how much that means to me to have hope of eating normally again! Yes, actually. In all aspects of health, everyone is different, and every physical body responds differently. So there are some people who don’t improve on this protocol. They are far outweighed by those who do, but still, you should know that it doesn’t have a 100% success rate. IL1B is a pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in early development. Additionally, IL1B stimulates other pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL6, and can cross the blood-brain barrier, which can result in alterations of neuroendocrine function. Well, it’s been 3 months now, and there have been a lot of changes! At the beginning of September, I finally got a prescription for Rifaximin (Xifaxan). I had some pretty crazy “steroid rage” while on it, which is weird because it’s an antibiotic, but no other side effects other than that.

I also mentioned that I was waiting to weigh myself until I had been on the protocol for 1 month. I weighed myself today, and I haven’t lost a single pound the whole month! That’s great news for me as I’ve been losing weight dramatically each week, and I didn’t have any weight to spare to begin with. CEASE, which discourages vaccinations and recommends potentially dangerous levels of nutritional supplements

Possible Uses

I’m waiting to be on the protocol one month before I weigh myself again, but I think I’m finally starting to absorb nutrients again! How Long Does It Take the Nemechek Protocol to Work? Okay, so that was the easy question, but when it comes to a good autism diet, I don’t know what the right answer is. Celiac disease and autism The members of the fatty acid family are all necessary and beneficial in their own way, but they must remain in the proper balance to really support health. I just found Dr. Nemechek and his protocol about a month ago. I’ve been on the protocol about 2 weeks, so I don’t have a ton of experience with it yet, but I’m documenting everything. I will say that the inulin tends to cause symptoms to flare in the beginning, but it doesn’t last long. A significant challenge with genomic medicine lies in translating an individual’s genomics into an action plan, a patient-centered personalized medicine response. To accomplish this, the first step is to understand how the gene variants identified in an individual’s genomic profile work on a molecular systems level. Then, it must be determined if there is a way to intervene in a genomically targeted fashion. Understanding the relevant molecular biology is paramount for developing clinical intervention strategies to target the variants’ function, pathways, and gene–gene interactions. The various cofactors, regulators, and enzymes that degrade encoded proteins can be considered for therapeutic intervention.

Around week 3, I started getting nauseous after taking the supplements. I’m not really sure what’s causing that, but I’ve asked around in the Nemechek Protocol community, and it seems to be par for the course and something that I need to just push through. The protocol identifies SIBO and brain inflammation as the likely culprits behind developmental delays, ADHD, Autism and more. Recently I were asked about something called "The Nemechek Protocol", after researching it I can confirm it is just another money scam as we've had people do in the past. There's numerous arousing issues surrounding it. I’ve lost over 25 pounds since my SIBO and autoimmune conditions first flared up. I didn’t have any weight to spare as I’ve always been very petite, so this weight loss put me in a dangerous place. the research and evidence show no benefit to autistic people – or there's no good research into them

What Is the Nemechek Protocol?

The Nemechek Protocol involves the administering of fish oil, extra virgin olive oil, and the prebiotic inulin (in older patients, inulin is replaced with Rifaximin, a prescription antibiotic). Dr. Nemechek uses these to reduce gut inflammation, restore omega 3:6 balances, and aid in cellular repair. Rather than working directly to increase levels of SHANK3 protein or affect stability, oxytocin is one such molecule that appears to work on downstream pathways such as long-term potentiation [ 35]. Increasing long-term potentiation (LTP) in multiple areas of the brain, including the hippocampus, has been shown to stimulate dendrite maturation and connectivity [ 36]. Decreased dendrite maturation is one of the possible downstream issues in individuals with SHANK3 deficiencies [ 9]. Due to its effects on LTP and its differential expression in the brain, oxytocin was also shown to decrease LTP-mediated pain hypersensitivity, often seen in individuals with ASD [ 36, 37]. It’s recommended to start at a small amount like 1/8 of a teaspoon. Stay there for a week or so, watching for any new, worsening or improved symptoms. If your symptoms stay the same or improve, then you can increase to ¼ tsp after 1-2 weeks. Continue increasing the dosage until you either “hit your sweet spot” as far as relief of symptoms go or you hit 2 tsps. This variant results in increased transcription and production of TNFa. This SNP is in the major histocompatibility complex and has been associated with autoimmune diseases such as celiac disease [ 52]. In building the CDS, the gene function for each gene was researched, along with how the variant associated with ASD in the literature was thought to affect the gene function. Then, a deeper literature search was conducted, again using the various resources mentioned above, to gain a molecular understanding of these pathways. In the case of SHANK3, as with many SNPs, the functional consequences of the SNP on gene function were not easily identified. W.L. was consulted to identify these various targets and methods to modulate the pathway. Dr. LaValley is a physician and molecular biologist who utilizes evidence-based molecularly targeted natural product supplements and re-purposed pharmaceuticals for molecular integrative medicine treatment of patients with complex chronic diseases. The research team then integrated this information into the genomic CDS for accessibility by the clinicians.

Some products or services, claiming to be cures or treatments for autism, are fake or can be harmful. It’s all a guessing game, but I suspect some sort of food poisoning with that salad ( I’m looking at you, romaine!). To create a manageable report in size and length, an arbitrary cut-off was set for our ASD research panel to only include variants that had been shown to increase the risk of ASD by 20% or more, correlating to an odds ratio of ≥1.2. Additionally, a second panel of gene variants was developed. This panel consisted of gene variants with excellent research supporting an association between these variants and ASD or other neurodevelopmental conditions. No ORs were calculated, but a high statistical power was demonstrated for these variants. Frequently, these are from observational analysis data from children with ASD. Variants were only included in the genomic CDS if, upon further exploration, the mechanism of the gene had been previously elucidated in the literature and if it was felt to be a potentially modifiable target.Dr Nemechek’s approach frequently triggers rapid and breath-taking improvements in children within a few weeks. It aims to strengthen the immune system and support the body’s ability to control inflammation.

GSTP1 encodes one of the glutathione transferase enzymes. This enzyme is involved in the attachment of toxins, carcinogens, and drugs to a reduced glutathione molecule. The National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) will only recommend something if there is good evidence that it benefits autistic people. As good news, constipation is a thing of the past! I can tell this protocol has been great for keeping things moving, which goes a long way to avoiding the toxin buildup that I struggled with before. Not gonna lie, I was very disappointed. I fully expected to see the night and day difference like the first round.These are the questions I get asked the most. For people wondering what early autism signs we saw in Charlie, I wrote a blog post about autism signs in babies and toddlers . It’s a pretty complete list of symptoms and things to keep an eye on if you’re worried about your child’s development. On his online community he tells parents to stop giving their children the medication they've been prescribed and take his protocol instead, even though he does not know the person's medical state or medical history. The treatment involves a two-step process that aims to rebalance intestinal bacteria and omega fatty acids, which in turn allows the child's brain to begin to heal and function properly. The Nemechek Protocol recommends the use of fish oil, extra virgin olive oil, and the prebiotic inulin while cooking. In older patients, inulin can be replaced with Rifaximin, which is a prescription antibiotic. These are used mainly to reduce gut inflammation, restore omega 3:6 balances, and aid in cellular repair.
