Our April 2026 speaker is Carolyn Ledowsky who will be talking about Folate Receptor Autoantibodies and Folinic Acid: Emerging Insights for Autism on Wednesday 29th April 2026 @ 12pm AEST.
Join genetics and nutrition expert Carolyn Ledowsky for a practical session exploring the role of folate receptor autoantibodies (FRAAs) in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Carolyn will explain how FRAAs can block folate transport into the brain, potentially impacting neurotransmitter production, methylation, and overall brain function.
This session will cover the link between cerebral folate deficiency and autism, including why many children with ASD may test positive for FRAAs. Carolyn will also discuss the latest evidence on folinic acid (leucovorin) as a targeted intervention, with observed improvements in language, social interaction, and behaviour.
Attendees will gain clear, actionable insights into testing options, treatment considerations, and how genetic and nutritional approaches can support more personalised care.
Join us for an exclusive event with Carolyn Ledowsky, founder of MTHFR Support Australia and a leading expert in genetic health. Carolyn will also touch on how genetics and epigenetics can influence ADHD, mental health, and overall wellbeing.
This session is ideal for parents, adults, and professionals looking to better understand the connection between genes, nutrition, and brain health.
