In this week’s episode of IMPACT, we had a conversation with Dr. Lauren Lee Stone. Dr. Lauren is a Board-Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS), Holistic Health Practitioner, and Integrative Health Practitioner. Today, she is here to talk to us about how to treat autism and other chronic diseases.
Dr. Lauren discusses how her son’s autism diagnosis led her to switch her field of study from Italian and French literature to holistic and integrative health, how long it took to start seeing positive results when healing his autism, commonalities she sees in treating kids with chronic illnesses, and more. We also speak about how foods have lost nutritional value throughout the decades and how infections run in biofilms. It always comes down to starting with the gut. The food we eat is essential to curing our body’s illness.
Dr. Lauren was let down by the doctors at the Yale Child Study Center, so she took matters into her own hands and managed to heal her child with holistic and homeopathic medicine. Now he is a flourishing, handsome young man, on his way to getting his doctorate. It just goes to show that nothing is impossible in the world of natural medicine and healing.
Tune in, absorb, and take notes to take control of your child’s health!

MEMORABLE QUOTES
“Where I live in Connecticut, it’s super beautiful, but they’ve done studies and they found that we have a high level of mercury contamination in the air… I had no idea because we live out in the woods but he was being poisoned.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“My journey was what I needed to do to clean up his life and to detox his body. And the first step was obviously food. I think that we all are unfortunately in a really compromised place because of the food in the United States. The standard American diet is horrific… our soils are incredibly depleted.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“It’s very interesting. The second we started to give him amino acids, which I realized it was just bypassing his faulty and leaky gut, his brain started changing and he started connecting, and it was amazing.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“We were giving him amino acids, we gave him fatty acids, and heavy-duty mitochondrial support. It was a life changing event for him to actually get nutrients in there. And then second to that, it was learning about homeopathic detoxes.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“The unfortunate truth is that we have to, in most cases, at least the kids that I deal with, you have to supplement. And really just giving that energetic boost to the cell. Once you have that extra energy, the body can choose to use it where it will and part of that is obviously to clean house.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“The thing for me that is the most troubling is that kids come into my office, young kids who are on 5-6 medications. They’re all chasing symptoms and not really addressing any of the foundational pieces. I see this particularly with kids who have emotional expressions of disease, either who have focus issues, rage issues, or depression.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“I would say that the most basic commonality is food and the piece that we need to change right now is glyphosate. And thankfully, there have been a few great rulings on glyphosate in the United States just pass in the last two weeks.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“In truth, everything is part of a unified system. You can’t speak of one without speaking of the whole. So that’s what homotoxicology does, it looks at the whole being. It also looks at the being in terms of essential foundations which really is, it’s light and vibration.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“We are light beings, we are all made up of vibrations. If you think back to basic chemistry, our bodies are made up of cells which can be broken down into molecules then atoms. We have electrons which circle the atom and the electrons vibrate.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“Everything in the universe has its own electromagnetic vibrational signature. And that includes all living and nonliving things, it includes things that are healthy for us and not healthy for us. It also includes things like healthy tissues and disease tissues.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
“In my experience, infections like Lyme, strep, and whatever else, live often in biofilms, which means they have this little happy family of heavy metals that are with them, fungus that’s with them, and they’re out sort of together, hiding out in the body.”
–Dr. Lauren Lee Stone
