Want to hear me explain my Autism Healing Matrix in detail? I was honored to be a guest on Dr. Mark Hyman’s podcast, The Broken Brain with host Dhru Purohit and we discussed each aspect of my Autism Healing Matrix.
Dhru and I talk about the science of treating autism spectrum disorder and why the life expectancy of someone on the spectrum is so low.
