Hey, I’m Allie Christine. Mom of six, child advocate, non-tox enthusiast, self-appointed CEO of Questioning Everything, and your go-to girl for making kids healthy again. If you’ve found yourself here, chances are you’re a parent searching for answers, battling mysterious health struggles with your child, or maybe just curious about why I have so much to say about detox. Either way, welcome.

How It All Started: My Son’s Story

My journey into holistic health wasn’t born out of some innate wisdom or a lifelong dream to be the crunchy mom on the block. Nope. It started with gut-wrenching fear, frustration, and the overwhelming realization that the very things I trusted to protect my child were actually harming him.

When my youngest son received his 12-month vaccines, everything changed overnight.

Within hours, he spiked a 104-degree fever and ran it for a week straight. I did what any terrified mother would do—I called the doctor. And then I called again. And again. Each time, I was dismissed with a casual, “It’s just a virus, give him Tylenol.” But my mama gut knew better.

I watched helplessly as he became less and less himself. Words he had just learned disappeared. His eye contact faded. He stopped responding to his name. He completely stopped engaging with us, lost interest in toys, and developed sensory issues. My once-happy baby was now screaming, head-banging, unable to sleep, covered in eczema, and refusing to eat foods he once loved.

At the follow-up appointment, the doctor didn’t acknowledge any of my concerns. No tests. No investigation. Just a “we’ll wait and watch.”

That was it.

I walked out of that office, furious and heartbroken, knowing that I was on my own. If I wanted answers, I had to find them myself.

I did the only thing I knew to do, called early intervention services myself. They affirmed what I already knew, speech delayed, expressive & receptive. I got him into speech & OT therapy. 

Then came the referral for an autism diagnosis and a pat on the back.

This just didn’t sit right, he was fine…. Until. 

The Rabbit Hole: Heavy Metals, Brain Inflammation & Gut Dysfunction

So, like any half-crazed, desperate mother, I went deep down the rabbit hole. And I mean deep. We’re talking stacks of medical journals, detox protocols from obscure corners of the internet, late-night research marathons, and a crash course in functional medicine that should probably earn me an honorary degree. That’s when I discovered the three-headed monster that was destroying my son’s health:

• Heavy Metal Toxicity – Turns out, we live in a world where our kids are bombarded with toxins before they even take their first breath.

• Mineral Deficiency – Because good luck getting essential nutrients when your body is in toxic overload.

• Gut Dysfunction – The holy grail of issues, making everything from digestion to brain function go haywire.

And then I discovered something even bigger—brain inflammation.

How Heavy Metals & Toxins Cross the Blood-Brain Barrier

I learned that the metals and toxins in vaccines—aluminum, mercury, formaldehyde, polysorbate 80—don’t just hang out in the body. They cross the blood-brain barrier—a protective shield that’s supposed to keep the brain safe from harmful substances.

Here’s the problem: Polysorbate 80, a common vaccine ingredient, acts like a Trojan horse, allowing these metals to bypass the barrier and enter the brain. Once inside, they ignite an inflammatory response, leading to brain swelling, neurotoxicity, and disrupted neural pathways.

And what does this look like in real life?

• Loss of speech

• Regression in cognitive function

• Hyperactivity, sensory overload, and extreme behavioral shifts

• Sleep disturbances and neurological dysfunction

Sound familiar?

The more I researched, the more everything clicked. The chronic brain inflammation my son was experiencing wasn’t just a random occurrence—it was a direct result of the toxic burden on his body.

The Healing Journey: Detoxing Metals, Calming Brain Inflammation & Restoring Health

At this point, I knew two things:

1. My son’s brain was on fire, and we had to put out the flames.

2. His body was overloaded with toxins, and we needed to clear them out safely.

So we got to work.

Step 1: Detoxing Heavy Metals Safely

I needed a detox that wouldn’t just move toxins around but would actually bind to and remove them. Enter PBX Zeolite—one of the safest and most effective ways to pull heavy metals from the brain and body. This negatively charged mineral acts like a magnet, binding to aluminum, mercury, lead, and other toxins, and escorting them out of the body safely.

Within weeks, I noticed small shifts. Eye contact. Increased engagement. More presence. I knew we were on the right track.

Step 2: Reducing Brain Inflammation with Ayurvedic Herbs

Here’s something Western medicine won’t tell you: Mother Nature has solutions for brain inflammation that have been used for thousands of years.

I turned to Ayurvedic herbs—powerful plant medicine known for their ability to reduce neuroinflammation, support cognitive function, and promote healing.

• Bacopa Monnieri – A nootropic herb that enhances brain function, improves memory, and reduces neuroinflammation.

• Gotu Kola – Supports the regeneration of damaged brain cells and helps improve focus, speech, and cognitive processing.

• Ashwagandha – Helps regulate stress, reduce anxiety, and support the nervous system in recovery.

As we incorporated these into his routine, his words started returning. His meltdowns became less intense. Sleep improved. It was like watching my son wake up again.

Step 3: Repairing the Gut & Restoring Nutrients

I knew that detoxing and brain support alone wouldn’t be enough—we had to heal his gut. We introduced:

• Fulvic minerals to replenish lost nutrients

• Probiotics and fermented foods to rebalance gut bacteria

• Bone broth and mineral-rich foods to rebuild his gut lining

The results? A thriving child who was once labeled “autistic” and “delayed.”

How Make Kids Healthy Again Was Born

When I say I’ve been through it, I mean through it. I’ve walked the road of unanswered questions, guilt, empty reassurances, and the gut-wrenching fear that this might be our forever. And if you’re here, I’m willing to bet you’ve felt it too.

That’s why I created Make Kids Healthy Again—to give parents the knowledge I wish I had earlier. To break the cycle of sickness, dig past the surface-level symptoms, get past the labels, and get to the real root of why our kids are struggling.

Because let’s be real—there’s a reason why 1 in 6 kids now has a developmental disability. Why autism, ADHD, speech delays, eczema, allergies, anxiety, and autoimmune issues are skyrocketing. And no, it’s not just “better diagnosis.”

But here’s what no one tells you: healing is possible.

Why I Do This

I’m not just a mom with a story—I’m a mom on a mission. A mission to help you take back your child’s health.

I’ve dedicated my life to this work, becoming a Holistic Health Coach and am currently working toward my doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine. My passion runs deep, and my biggest joy is seeing other parents win this fight.

So whether you’re here because your child is struggling, or because you just want to know why I keep yelling about parasites, microplastics, toxins, and gut health on Instagram—stick around.

I’ll teach you how to detox your kids safely, rebuild their health, and reclaim the vibrant, thriving child you know is in there.

Let’s make kids healthy again—together.

With love,

Allie Christine
