Karyn Seroussi's book "Unraveling the Mystery of Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorder"
When her son was diagnosed with autism at 19 months, Seroussi, a small-business owner and wife of a research chemist, determined to do everything in her power to help her child achieve normal functioning. In addition to pursuing recommended speech and behavior modification therapies for her son, Seroussi devoted her considerable energies - often against medical advice - to researching alternative approaches. Her own experience and a growing body of scientific evidence pointed to connections between autism and diet.
The use and stories of Ojibwa Tea of Life™ in Karyn Seroussi's book Unraveling the Mystery of Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorder refer to our brand of essiac tea, Ojibwa Tea of Life™. Our company and participating individuals concerned with autism have designed materials and research for the use of this remedy. Specific guidelines and methods have been created for the way in which to use our product for the use of autism, PDD etc. No other essaic companies are involved in this project.
In the book Unraveling the Mystery of Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Karyn Seroussi describes the tea as a "homeopathic" Native American herbal tea. However, I offer the following correction: Ojibwa Tea of Life™ is NOT homeopathic but a four herb, organic/ethically wild-crafted blend.

Autism Network for Dietary Intervention
Current research shows that many cases of autism result from an immune-system dysfunction that affects the body's ability to break down certain proteins and combat yeasts and bacteria.
Many parents are convinced of the validity of dietary intervention for autistic individuals, but do not have the resources to try it themselves, especially those with picky eaters and skeptical spouses.
ANDI was established by parent researchers, Lisa Lewis and Karyn Seroussi, to help families around the world get started on, and maintain an appropriate diet. The ANDI mission is simple:
