Lyme4 Channel's video: Lyme Induced Autism: Dr Dietrich Klinghardt discusses kryptopyrroluria Pyroluria - LIA 2009

Dietritch Klinghardt, M.D.'s presentation on HPU / KPU / Pyroluria, Lyme disease and Autism at LIA Foundation's 2009 Annual Conference Pyroluria is a genetically determined chemical imbalance involving an abnormality in hemoglobin synthesis. Hemoglobin is the protein that holds iron in the red blood cell. Individuals with this disorder produce too much of a byproduct of hemoglobin synthesis called “kryptopyrrole” (KP) or “hemepyrrole.” Read also: Pyroluria: How Pyrroles Affect Physical and Mental Health https://www.integrativepsychiatry.net/pyroluria.html The Lyme Induced Autism Foundation is (was) a nonprofit organization serving as a 501c3 organization under IRS code. In short, the organization is a benefit charity for those families struggling under Lyme induced autism. The foundation, also known simply as L.I.A. Foundation, dedicates its efforts to improving awareness of the condition. It wants to increase awareness not only in parents, but also in physicians and the community as a whole as to the importance of testing for mycoplasma, borrelia and other infections that children with autism spectrum disorder often have. In addition, the organization works to provide community aid through education of the available resources and the necessary tools. The organization often works alongside doctors and parents to help improve communication and to educate the masses. As part of L.I.A. Foundation's goals, it also works to help physicians and the community to be aware of potential environmental triggers that could lead to the development of autism in some patients. This includes the company states, genetically modified foods, electromagnetic frequencies, toxic perfumes, toxic chemicals, pesticides and forced vaccination programs. The organization believes that any number of these conditions could trigger the onset of autism in children. The organization also helps to bring together groups of people commonly affected by the conditions. The L.I.A. Foundation has developed, and continues to work to build a network of support through local and online resources. This resource aids individuals in finding answers to their questions and finding help. LIA Foundation Programs Many of the activities that help to bring the necessary information to the masses come from L.I.A. Foundation in the way of specially designed programs. The organization's programs stem around three aspects: Awareness programs for patients, doctors, parents and the community Educational programs about what autism is, as well as how it develops and how Lyme disease plays a role in the condition's development Support programs designed to provide parents and children with the resources they need, including doctor referrals, information and just a network of friends to talk with. Each of these programs is ongoing. Since the L.I.A. Foundation is a charity organization, the funding of these programs comes from donations. The organization also uses grants to help supplement donations. Special events occur year round and serve as a method of bringing in necessary funding. Conferences are another resource for the organization. Does Lyme Disease Cause Autism Although the L.I.A. Foundation does not claim that Lyme disease is a direct cause of autism, the foundation does believe there is a link between the two. The organization believes that many children have exposure to Lyme disease prior to being born, and therefore have the condition at birth. This leads to a suppressed immune system right from the start of life, which in turn allows the child to become a victim of any number of conditions. This includes viruses, lead poisoning, mercury poisoning and infections. These secondary conditions are what lead the child to develop autism spectrum disorder, L.I.A. Foundation believes.
