Connect My Brain

27. The link between body chemistry and developmental delay


Listen Later

You might not have paid much attention in your high school chemistry class (or maybe you skipped it altogether), but today we're going to talk all about body chemistry and how it relates to developmental delay and you're going to want to pay attention. There is so much chemistry for us to talk about and I'm just going to barely skim the surface in this conversation. Our immune systems (the hallmark of how we deal with body chemistry) doesn't mature until age 3. That means whatever is going on in a child's body in those first three years is the role of model of how that system is going to function. When children are constantly given broad-spectrum antibiotics, their good bacteria is wiped out over and over again, and they are literally programming their bodies to be sick!
