Lyme Disease and Autism: Insights from Tami Duncan and Brian Rosner

The Lyme community almost sees itself as a little bit, you know, trying to protect itself and heal itself while we're waiting for mainstream science to catch up.
What happens when two complex health issues intersect? In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', Mary Woods sits down with Tami Duncan, co-founder of the Lyme Induced Autism (LIA) Foundation, and Brian Rosner, a well-known author and advocate for Lyme disease education. Both guests bring a wealth of personal and professional experience to the table, making for an enlightening discussion on the connection between Lyme disease and autism.
Tami shares her journey of co-founding the LIA Foundation after her son was diagnosed with autism and she with Lyme disease. Brian, having battled Lyme disease himself, offers insights from his extensive research and writing on the topic. Together, they discuss the symptoms and diagnostic challenges of Lyme disease, its potential links to mental health disorders, and the foundation's mission to promote education and awareness.
The conversation also covers current testing methods, possible environmental and genetic factors, and the hope for recovery in children affected by Lyme-induced autism. If you're curious about how these two conditions might be connected or want to learn more about the efforts being made to understand and address them, this episode is for you.
