The proven, drug-free program to treat the cause-not just the
symptoms-of autism spectrum disorders and related conditions.
Each year, an estimated 1.5 million children-one out of every
six-are diagnosed with autism, Asperger's syndrome, ADHD, dyslexia,
and obsessive compulsive disorder. Dr. Robert Melillo brings a
fundamentally new understanding to the cause of these conditions
with his revolutionary Brain Balance Program(tm). It has achieved
real, fully documented results that have dramatically improved the
quality of life for children and their families in every aspect:
behavioral, emotional, academic, and social. "Disconnected Kids"
shows parents how to use this drug-free approach at home,
including: Fully customizable exercises that target physical,
sensory, and academic performance
A behavior modification plan
Advice for identifying food sensitivities that play a hidden
role
A follow-up program that helps to ensure lasting results
Attention deficit disorder, attention deficit hyperactive
disorder, pervasive developmental disorder, obsessive-compulsive
disorder, asperger's syndrome, and autism, to name but a few, may
be viewed as points on a spectrum of developmental disabilities in
which those points share features in common and possibly etiology
as well, varying only in severity and in the primary anatomical
region of dysfunctional activity.
This text focuses on alterations of the normal development of
the child. A working theory is presented based on what we know of
the neurological and cognitive development in the context of
evolution of the human species and its brain. In outlining our
theory of developmental disabilities in evolutionary terms, the
authors offer evidence to support the following notions: Bipedalism
was the major reason for human neocortical evolution; Cognition
evolved secondary and parallel to evolution of motricity; There
exists an overlap of cognitive and motor symptoms; Lack of
thalamo-cortical stimulation, not overstimulation, is a fundamental
problem of developmental disabilities; A primary problem is
dysfunctions of hemisphericity; Most conditions in this spectrum of
disorders are the result of a right hemisphericity; Environment is
a fundamental problem; All of these conditions are variations of
the same problem; These problems are correctable; Hemisphere
specific treatment is the key to success.

From the bestselling author of "Disconnected Kids," a clear and
compassionate explanation of the causes of the autism epidemic--and
a scientifically based approach for prevention and treatment.
As he travels the country helping parents and children cope with
neurological disorders, Dr. Robert Melillo is always asked one
question: Why? Why are autism rates exploding? But an equally
important question always follows: What can we do about it as a
society--and what can I do to help my child?
In this candid, research-based, practical book, Dr. Melillo
presents the latest scientific explanation for how we got here and
proven, drug-free strategies that parents can employ to help
prevent, detect, and address the autism epidemic for themselves and
their families.
With honesty and compassion, Dr. Melillo explains what the latest
scientific research tells us about the role of genetic,
environmental, and lifestyle factors, dispelling myths and
replacing them with the facts. In addition, he presents early
warning signs, a prevention plan for parents-to-be, and an
intervention program for babies and young children.
A scientifically developed program for feeding kids with special needs--based on the popular Brain Balance Program
Dr. Robert Melillo s Brain Balance program has helped thousands of families across the country, offering a drug-free, scientifically based method for addressing a wide range of conditions, including autism spectrum disorders and ADHD. In this new book, he presents the nutritional side of the Brain Balance Program, featuring guidelines, tips, and kid-friendly recipes based on the latest scientific research on how food affects the brain.
