The UN designated April 2nd as World Autism Awareness Day!

The growth of children diagnosed with autism is alarming. Having a personal connection to this ailment I support the cause and research medical practitioners, parents and teachers are conducting to address the disease and reverse the stages of autism.

I hope that have a few great articles to share with you over the next few months from a friend of mine and Autism advocate, Jennifer Morgan who is extremely active in championing the cause of alternative treatments for autism like chelation therapy, mineral and vitamin supplementation, detox programs, hyperbaric therapy, tailor made medications that are gluten-free, casien-free, dye-free and sugar free.

Jennifer is the current President of the National Autism Association of Florida which promotes the biomedical and dietary interventions as a treatment for autism spectrum disorders. She also sits on the Board of Directors for the Family Network on Disabilities of FL.

I'd like to share a few great links and autism related website that can help create awareness and educate parents, teachers, families and businesses about autism and alternative therapy and treatments that have been found helpful.

Each year I dread the spring rains and humid weather; it means mosquito breeding season and really bad, red welt-like bumps from mosquito bites. I have had severe allergies to mosquito bites and often find myself with annoying bites from grabbing the mail or even doing laundry in the garage.

With the increase of west nile viral cases and increased mosquito populations; it is important to take all the necessary measures to naturally prevent mosquito bites and the sting that follows.

I've luckily found a great mosquito bite prevention routine that has helped me tremendously. My secret is varied and consists of dietary changes, supplementation, essential oils, strategic planting of mosquito repellent plants as well as old wise remedies.

I try to avoid eating bananas if I am going to be outside- the mosquitoes are attracted to the way in which out bodies process the banana oil.

I take non-scented garlic pills each day.

I use skin so soft lotion daily. Before this application, I actually mix up a body spritzer that contains a combo of rubbing alcohol or witch hazel mixed with pure lavender essential oil. The lavender acts as a naturally repellent in conjunction with the alcohol and it smells great. Also dabbing vanilla extract on pulse points is helpful.

Planting citronella, marigolds, lavender and basil near doors, walkways, patios, pools etc... anywhere you may gather outside helps to naturally keep the mosquitoes at bay.

My grandmother has always suggested rubbing a dryer sheet on my legs and arms and I have found this helpful on hikes and long walks.

I also am a big fan of Quantum's Buzz Away Extreme products. They have a natural insect repellent that repels mosquitoes, gnats, blackflies and even ticks. The ingredients contain soybean oil, castor oil, cedarwood oil, citronella oil, peppermint oil, and lemongrass oil. It is sweat proof and waterproof and does not smell like mosquito repellent.
