Summer is here, so it’s no surprise that the question regarding the safety of chlorinated swimming pools has come up a lot lately. All people are susceptible to the issues demonstrated in this post, but for children on the autism spectrum it is important to be additionally cautious. Their detoxification processes are much more sensitive and weaker than most.

When a chlorinated swimming pool is swam in by multiple children who are likely urinating in it, as in a public pool, the chlorine reacts with the urine (ammonia) and creates chloramines. This chemical is harmful to your health and the health of your child.

Chloramines are skin aggravants, respiratory aggravants, and much more. The byproducts are known carcinogens, and have been shown to cause developmental abnormalities in mouse embryos. Olympic swimmers have had their careers ruined due to these harmful chemicals.

On the upside, if a chlorinated pool is not heavily used by children who are urinating in it, as in your own backyard or private pool, then it should be relatively safe.

An even better way to go is to convert your chlorine pool to one that is saline based. There are companies who can do this for you. In the U.S. it costs somewhere around $1500.00, but it is well worth it in the long run, especially if you or a family member are sensitive to chlorine.

Saline pools still contain some chlorine. Watch your child for histamine reactions such as heightened anxiety after swimming in any chlorine.

What if you had a clear roadmap instead of constantly trying one thing after another?

After watching my own son transform from struggling with severe symptoms to living a healthy, independent life, I spent years researching, learning, and developing the approach I now teach to families around the world.

In my free online webinar, The 4 Stages to Naturally Recover from the Symptoms of Autism, I’ll walk you through the four stages I believe are essential to supporting your child’s health:

• Healing the Gut
• Natural Heavy Metal Detoxification
• Clearing Co-Infections
• Brain Support & Repair

I’ll share what I discovered through my own journey, why I believe the order matters, and how I approach the underlying health challenges that can affect children with autism.

Stop guessing and start understanding the roadmap I developed through years of research and personal experience.

I created this webinar to give you the information and roadmap I wish I had when I was trying to figure out how to help my own son.
