Auditory Processing Disorder..

While there is no one cause, the disorder will occur in various locations along the path followed by acoustic signals as they are received, transition into neural signals and then ultimately pass through neural networks from the ear to the brain for additional analysis (before the ultimate recognition or comprehension and response). In many children, the development of important auditory centers within the brain is linked directly to maturational delays which result in this disorder. In others, variations in brain development can lead to benign differences and create the deficits. For many this is a genetic disorder, which is inherited and runs in families. Sometimes, the disorder may relate to neurological problems caused by tumors, trauma, surgical mishaps, disease, viral infections, oxygen defficiency, lead poisoning, auditory deprivation, or anything along these lines

http://www.thoughtfulhouse.org/0405-conf-emumper.htmYou have heard a lot about glutathione today. Think of glutathione as a working woman who has many responsibilities and multi-tasks. She keeps her family healthy (proper immune function), cleans up after her kids (detoxification) and still makes time to exercise her gluteal muscles (a mnemonic to help you remember GLUTathione).
Folic acid was named for the Latin word for leaf, and looks leafy on a microscopic level. It's excellent for repairing DNA injured by oxidative stress, it helps you hang on to your electrons, and it's used in growth, regeneration, and repair.
Lots of different factors contribute to oxidative stress—radiation, drugs, pollution, poor diet, infection, stress, aging, and injury trauma.
This all leads to the loss of glutathione, and cellular aging, disease, and death.
Those of us who do this work spend a lot of our day treating oxidative stress.

This is not a discussion of loud, electronic rock 'n' roll music, but one of impact to all people living in this day and age who are being exposed to heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and cadmium. Though not normally found in or used by the human species, they are becoming more widely present in our environment, leading to serious concerns. There are possibly more problems from these metals, which interfere with normal bodily function, than have been considered in most medical circles. Reviewing all of our vitamins and minerals has shown us that most every substance that is useful can be a toxin or poison, as well. The metals discussed in this section are known primarily-almost exclusively-for their potential toxicity in the body, though commerically they may have great advantages.
