    Welcome to Episode 299 of Autism Parenting Secrets.

    This week we're talking about PANS and PANDAS. 

    These are conditions that can appear suddenly, create intense symptoms, and leave parents feeling overwhelmed and unsure of what's really going on. 

    And to help bring some clarity, I'm joined this week by Erin Page. 

    She's a homeopath, educator, and host of the Remedy Revolution podcast. 

    Her journey began in 2012 when her own son became ill. 

    Leading her into deep study and training through Angelica Lemke's School of Intuitive Homeopathy and her work with the Homeopathy Hive team. 

    Erin has served as an advocate with Autism One, Americans for Homeopathy Choice, Texans for Vaccine Choice, and Pandas Awareness Texas. 

    Through her practice, Heartwing Healing, she now supports families in navigating pans and pandas and other neuroimmune challenges.

    Welcome to Episode 298 of Autism Parenting Secrets.

    If your child has tried supplements that were supposed to help the brain but didn’t move the needle, this episode may explain why. 

    This week, I’m excited to welcome back Dr. Theoharis Theoharides, known to many as Dr. Theo. 

    He is a physician-scientist with five advanced degrees and decades of pioneering research. 

    Long before neuroinflammation and immune-driven brain dysfunction became widely discussed, Dr. Theo was connecting mast cells, metabolism, and brain health. 

    In this conversation, we explore why some children can’t properly use standard folic acid and how the right form of folate may support better language, focus, and regulation.

He is also an Adjunct Professor of Immunology at Tufts School of Medicine. Dr. Theo has over 500 publications and is widely recognized as a leading expert on mast cells and neuroinflammation.

    Welcome to Episode 297 of Autism Parenting Secrets.

    Leah Wilson is an attorney, a mother, a foster parent, and the co-founder of Stand for Health Freedom.

    She has been on the front lines advocating for informed consent, parental rights, and health freedom, and she has lived this work personally through her own family and foster care experience.

    Leah is the co-author of Reclaim Vitality, a book that challenges the idea that health is something to manage or outsource. 

    Instead, it invites parents to step off the conventional path and reclaim the body’s God-given ability to heal. 

    Her work does not simply critique the system. 

    It asks a deeper question: who does a parent need to become in order to lead their family well in a world that profits from confusion, fear, and dependence?

    Leah Wilson is the Executive Director and Co-Founder of Stand for Health Freedom. An attorney with a background in complex litigation and advocacy, Leah has spent more than a decade working on child welfare and parental rights issues.

    Her work was shaped by firsthand experience in the foster care system, where she witnessed the widespread use of psychiatric medications as behavior management and the enforcement of one-size-fits-all medical mandates. These experiences led her to expand her advocacy beyond foster care and launch Stand for Health Freedom in 2019 to protect informed consent and parental rights nationwide.

    Leah is also an educator and sought-after speaker on holistic health, religious liberty, and family sovereignty, and is the co-author of Reclaim Vitality.
