The rates of prevalence of chronic debilitating diseases such as autism, depression, Alzheimer’s, and dementia are increasing. But advances in preventing and treating these diseases are almost nonexistent. The truth is, most doctors are trained to treat the symptoms, not the cause, of the disease; they are not seeking ways to prevent it. The good news is that a medical revolution is underway that will forever change how we understand, prevent, and treat these diseases.
