In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down the science behind folinic acid (Leucovorin), FRAT testing, and cerebral folate deficiency. But he also explains why focusing only on medications, gut health, and inflammation often leaves families stuck. Instead, Dr. Tony shows how the nervous system plays the central role in language, behavior, feeding, sleep, and overall healing—and why addressing it first changes everything. If your child has autism, language delays, or you’ve been told “it’s all about the gut,” this episode will give you a new, root-cause perspective and a clearer path forward.
