Synopsis

Autism, ADD, or Lead Poisoning?
Turning Lead into Gold

Nancy Hallaway’s world collapsed when her three-year-old twins, Cameron and Brett, were diagnosed as hyperactive with attention deficit disorder (ADD) and severe autistic tendencies. While searching for answers and help for her boys, she never imagined that the cause of their condition lay in her own pleasant suburban home. Then she met a doctor who suspected that the twins might suffer from heavy metal toxicity. He found unacceptable levels of lead, arsenic, aluminum, and cadmium in their bodies, and his treatments led to immediate and spectacular improvement in both Cameron and Brett.

In a revision of her original book, Nancy has re-written her amazing experiences in Turning Lead into Gold—Autism, ADD, or Lead Poisoning? to help other parents whose children may show symptoms of autism or ADD, or whose development is delayed because of metal poisoning.


A remarkable book by a remarkable mother. Nancy Hallaway’s fascinating story of the dramatic improvement in her severely autistic twin boys should open the eyes of parents and physicians to the all-too-real possibility that heavy metal toxicity is an important, and treatable, cause of autism.
Dr. Bernard Rimland, Autism Research Institute (1995)

With her honest and engaging style of writing, Nancy reminds us that children diagnosed with ADD and autistic tendencies differ substantially; improvement for any one child may be just around the corner if we as parents and professionals give up our biases and keep our minds open. We certainly do not have all of the answers but I am confident that the story of Brett and Cameron will provide guidance for many families who maintain hope for the improvement of their children.
Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh, Center for Autism and Related Disorders (1995)
