Born Defenseless: Why Infant Liver Maturity May Be the Missing Piece in Understanding Vaccine Safety, SIDS, and NDDs (Neurodevelopmental Delays)

by Richard Z. Cheng, M.D., Ph.D., Gary S. Goldman, Ph.D.
📌 New Research Highlights a Missing Link in Pediatric Risk

A 2025 study [1] by Dr. Gary S. Goldman and myself, both board members of the Orthomolecular Medicine News Service (OMNS), sheds new light on the immature liver detoxification system in infants-an overlooked but critical factor in understanding vaccine safety, sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), and the rising burden of chronic childhood diseases.
🏗️ Underdeveloped Liver Detox Pathways in Infants

The liver detoxifies foreign chemicals through three major phases:

Phase Function Immaturity in Infants
Phase I CYP450 enzymes modify toxins ↓ Activity (10-50% of adult levels)
Phase II Conjugation (e.g., glutathione, methylation) ↓ UGT, GST, SULT enzymes
Phase III Transport and excretion (bile, urine) ↓ Transporter protein function

🔍 Key Insight: These immature pathways reduce the infant's capacity to metabolize pharmaceutical agents, vaccine components (e.g., aluminum, polysorbate 80), and environmental toxins.
🌍 Global Vaccine Coverage and Infant Vulnerability

Over 75% of all vaccines are administered during infancy and early childhood, a critical window for neurodevelopment and immune programming.
In 2023, 84% of infants globally received three doses of DTP3. Coverage for Hepatitis B, MMR, Polio, and Varicella is similarly high [2].
In the U.S., >90% of children are vaccinated by age 2 years [3].

⚠️ Vaccines = Pharmacological Agents Requiring Liver Detoxification

Vaccines are not benign. They contain:

Adjuvants (aluminum salts)
Preservatives (formaldehyde, phenol)
Surfactants (polysorbate 80)
mRNA or antigen payloads

Without a mature liver detox system, these ingredients may accumulate, especially in metabolically or genetically vulnerable infants.
🧬 Genetic Polymorphisms and Metabolic Risk

The CYP450 enzyme family is not only underdeveloped in infants but also highly polymorphic. Differences in gene variants mean some infants are poor metabolizers, while others are ultrarapid metabolizers [4,5].

👉Pharmacogenomic testing could identify infants most at risk for adverse vaccine reactions-something current public health policies do not yet include [6,7].
🚨 Potential Vaccine-Associated Toxicities in Infants

Category Conditions Linked[1,8-14]
🧠 Neurological Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), developmental delay, seizures
💨 Respiratory & Immune Asthma, allergies, autoimmune diseases
❤️ Cardiovascular & Metabolic SIDS, mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic imbalance
🧬 Detoxification Overload Aluminum retention, impaired CYP450 clearance, oxidative stress

🧬 Immature Detox + Immune Activation = Perfect Storm

Newborns and infants not only start life with underdeveloped liver detox pathways-but immune activation during illness or vaccination can further suppress their already limited detox capacity.
📉 Cytokine-Mediated Suppression of Detox Enzymes [15-17]:

Inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6 can downregulate CYP450 enzymes, impairing Phase I detox.
This immune-driven suppression occurs during infection, inflammation, or vaccination.
In infants-whose metabolic systems are still immature-this double hit further compromises their ability to clear toxins.

🎯 Result:

Even less ability to process toxins when it's needed the most.

This compounding effect may explain vaccine-associated regression, seizures, or SIDS-like events in genetically or nutritionally vulnerable infants. Yet, current public health policies rarely factor in these biochemical realities.
🔍 Factoring New Risk Dimensions into Vaccine Policy

A comprehensive risk-benefit analysis of early-life vaccination should not ignore:

The prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), now 1 in 31 children in the U.S. [18].
The plausible link between SIDS and immature CYP450 enzyme systems and 5-HT brainstem networks involved in autonomic control [19,20].
Statistically significant findings from Mawson et al. and the Florida Medicaid retrospective study, which show higher NDD rates in vaccinated vs. unvaccinated children-especially in preterm infants [21].

🧠 Investigating the Timing of Immunization: A Metabolic Perspective

Given that CYP450 enzyme systems mature only after 2-3 years of age, these research questions must be asked:
1. Should universal early-life immunization schedules be re-evaluated?

Yes. Not all infants face the same risk. CYP450 immaturity, compounded by genetic polymorphisms, can increase susceptibility to vaccine-related adverse effects, particularly in preterm infants and those with specific genotypes.
2. What is the risk comparison: Infectious mortality vs. NDDs?

Vaccine-preventable diseases (e.g., pertussis) can be fatal but are rare in modern healthcare systems.
NDDs (ASD, ADHD, epilepsy) are rising and may have lifelong consequences.
Florida Medicaid Study (N > 47,000) showed significantly higher odds of NDDs among fully vaccinated children.
Mawson et al. observed higher ASD and chronic disease rates in vaccinated homeschooled children.

✅ Point of balance: Infectious disease risk is highest in early infancy; NDDs last a lifetime. Personalized scheduling may benefit at-risk subgroups.
3. Does breastfeeding reduce infection risk and shift vaccine timing?

Yes. Breastfeeding confers:

Passive immunity (antibodies)
Antioxidants (e.g., vitamin C, glutathione precursors)
Anti-inflammatory factors

This may justify delaying non-urgent vaccinations in breastfed or low-risk infants.
📚 OM Perspective: Orthomolecular Nutrition as Public Health Strategy

Supporting detox pathways with optimal nutrition can mitigate risk. Nutrition-based strategies-especially when initiated prenatally-help mature liver function, reduce oxidative stress, and support immune tolerance.
🍊 Orthomolecular Nutrients That Enhance Infant Detox Capacity [22-27]

Nutrient Function
Vitamin D3 Gene regulation, immune modulation
Vitamin C Glutathione recycling, antioxidant
B Vitamins (B2, B6, B12, Folate) Phase II methylation, neurotransmitter balance
Magnesium, Selenium Enzyme cofactors for detox pathways
Zinc Antioxidant, immune regulation, heavy metal binding
N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) Glutathione precursor (best via maternal intake)

👩‍🍼 Maternal and Infant Supplementation Matters

Maternal nutrient optimization during pregnancy and lactation enhances infant resilience.
Breast milk provides vital glutathione precursors and immune factors.
Infants may benefit from supplemental vitamin D, C, and probiotics under medical supervision.

🧩 Call to Action: Integrate Orthomolecular, Pediatric, and Public Health Fields
🔑 Key Recommendations:

Recognize detox immaturity in pediatric vaccination policy.
Delay or adjust vaccine schedules for genetically or metabolically vulnerable infants.
Promote individualized risk-benefit communication with parents.
Implement prenatal and early-life orthomolecular nutrition policies.

✅ Conclusion

"Infants are biochemically distinct from adults. They cannot detoxify at the same level. Public health must reflect this physiological truth." - Richard Z. Cheng, M.D., Ph.D.

Vaccine safety must include detoxification readiness. This readiness is shaped by developmental maturity, genetic variability, and nutritional status.

Through orthomolecular support, informed risk stratification, and precision vaccine scheduling, we can protect infants from both infectious diseases and neurodevelopmental harms.

Cell Phone Induced Bodily Harm How The Bees Can Help

Did you know that your cell phone technically microwaves your brain, sometimes using about the same frequencies found in a microwave oven? And did you know that natural substances have proven radioprotective properties that can reduce your risk of adverse exposures?
Cell phones and the communications infrastructure that makes them possible are ubiquitous today, making complete avoidance of their significant radiotoxicy next to impossible. Plenty of evidence already exists showing that cell phones emit a type of electromagnetic radiation -- in the microwave range -- capable of adversely affecting a wide range of organs, with the nervous system of those exposed perhaps most sensitive to its adverse effects. Below is a sampling of some of their adverse health effects as demonstrated in the biomedical literature:
• Liver Damage
• Interruption of Sleep
• REM Cycle Disruption
• Heart Damage
• Fetal Harm
• Head Tumors
• Kidney Damage
• Acoustic Neuroma
• Brain Wave Disruption
Provocative research indicates that the problems associated with cell phone radiation exposure are far more profound that previously believed. In fact, pregnant women may need to exercise additional caution in order to protect their unborn from adverse neurological effects associated with cell phone radiation exposure.
In a study entitled, "The influence of microwave radiation from cellular phone on fetal rat brain," and published in the journal Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine in 2012, researchers discovered that pregnant rats exposed to microwave radiation from cellular phones had fetuses whose brains showed signs of harm, as measured by enhanced oxidative stress and altered levels of neurotransmitters.
We also reported more recently on clinical research indicating that as little as 15 minutes of "talk time" can profoundly alter and disrupt brain wave activity intimately connectd to cognition, mood, and behavior: Brain Wave Warping Effect of Mobile Phones.
For a concise explanation of the mechanisms behind cell-phone induced carcinogenicity, watch Dr. Chris Busby's video on the topic below:
Natural, Evidence-Based Ways to Protect Against Cell Phone Radiation
Given the wide range of potential risks associated with cell phones, we have plumbed the depths of MEDLINE in search of research on natural substances capable of ameliorating cell-phone associated toxicities.
Surprisingly, the little known bee product known as propolis exhibits powerful protective action against cell-phone induced damage to a variety of organs, including the kidney, heart and brain.

Once believed to function merely as mortar for plugging up small holes in the bee hive, propolis is now understood to have powerfully protective properties, such as its antimicrobial activity. The bees even use it to mummify animals that make their way into the hive, e.g. lizards, that they can not physically remove before they undergo putrefaction. Propolis' infection-fighting properties, however, are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to its potential beneficial effects.
While there are over 100 potential therapeutic applications of propolis documented in the biomedical literature, propolis' radioprotective properties are perhaps the most intensely investigated and well established. We have, in fact, indexed 15 such studies on its ability to reduce radiation-induced damage, including gamma radiation commonly associated with medical diagnostic and radiotherapy procedures which you can view here.
Other substances capable of protecting against the radiation specific to the mobile phone range include melatonin, EGCG (green tea polyphenol), ginkgo biloba and the glutathione precursor NAC. To view the studies click the image below.

TOXICOLOGY OF FLUORIDE TO THE BRAIN AND BEYOND:
National Health Freedom article:
"Those who followed the multi-year fluoride trial saga know, that the government’s much touted report[i] on whether fluoride harms children’s brain has finally been released and now sees the light of day. Getting it released at this late date wasn’t easy, as there seemed to be efforts to delay it and suppress it. It had been peer reviewed again, and reviewed again, to a farcical degree.

Release of report halted

The report and its effects of fluoride on the human brain is presented and discussed on the website of Fluoride Action Alert (FAN)[ii]. In addition to describing the actual findings, there are sub-pages on governmental suppression of the report, how the evidence on that was obtained and who were the top governmental officials in ordering the suppression of the release of the report. There is also a short video of former NTP director Linda Birnbaum giving her view on what this all means for the future of water fluoridation.

During the trial which has been going on for the past years, the plaintiff’s attorney learned that the report was completed and slated to be released in May of 2022. But its release was mysteriously halted, despite the fact that the judge in the fluoride trial was waiting for its release for more than a year, and it was supposedly needed in order to provide pivotal evidence in the trial after years of delay and waiting. Thanks to FOIA requests brought by the plaintiff’s attorneys, it was revealed that the release of the report had been secretly blocked by an order from someone high in the public health hierarchy: Admiral Levine, assistant Secretary of Health. The judge, exasperated, ordered that the preliminary version of the report be released to the court, so that its conclusions could be brought into evidence and the trial could be completed. This, on his part, allowed the final leg of the trial to be completed this past February; however, it is September, and we all are still awaiting a verdict.

18 of 19 studies show impact on intelligence

Now that we have the official National Toxicology Program (NTP) report, it is time to ask: what does it say? Are there any surprises to be found in it? In its description of the scientific details, the report did find confirmation, as expected, of fluoride as being toxic to children’s brains. Of the 19 highest quality studies, 18 of them found that higher levels of fluoride exposure were significantly associated with lower intelligence in children. But there were some statements in the report that will give the dental establishment something to cling to: the clearest evidence that fluoride is a brain neurotoxin was found at levels of 1.5 parts per million, which is higher than the 0.7 parts per million that the CDC now recommends for water fluoridation. (1)

Multiplicity of factors add to fluoride exposure

But a counter to that argument presented by FAN is that total fluoride intake – with some coming from food, toothpastes, drugs, and pollution – varies greatly, and susceptibility varies greatly too, with some people being harmed more easily than others. So, each side of the fluoride debate will still have talking points in the ongoing argument over fluoridation, and the big media will obviously favor the vested interests that make up the fluoride promoters.

Fluoride in the food supply and pharmaceutical increase exposure

Those who have followed the fluoride issue know how broad and powerful those players on the fluoride team are. According to the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), fluoride is found at much higher levels in many beverages and foods than it is in fluoridated water.[iii] So Big Ag and Big Food want the fluoride cover-up. Big Pharma knows that about ten per-cent of its drugs use fluorine as an ingredient, including Prozac and the notorious antibiotic, Cipro (They both carry FDA black box warnings)[iv]. Heavy industry, from steel to coal, aluminum factories and phosphate fertilizer plants pose a hazard to workers and nearby communities alike. (2)(3)

ADA and media can’t admit they were wrong

In particular, the phosphate fertilizer plants are capturing their hazardous fluoride fumes to keep them out of the environment and then have the gall to sell them to chemical companies[v] who peddle them to city water works, which put the toxic waste into the water people drink – that’s what is called water fluoridation. So heavy industry does want to let go of the myths about fluoride being “safe and effective.” Big dentistry, as with the American Dental Association doesn’t want to admit that it was profoundly wrong over the last 80 years in insisting that every dental student in every dental school be taught that fluoride use and water fluoridation are fundamentally needed to assure children’s dental health. Big media itself has a stake in the debate, because it doesn’t want to admit that it was profoundly negligent in its coverage of the fluoride issue over the last 80 years.

Team Fluoride

According to Bryson in his book “The Fluoride Deception”,[vi] instead of telling the public about what honest scientists had actually found, it has steadfastly held to the lies and the cover-up of the dental-industrial-governmental establishment when telling us what to believe. So, we shouldn’t expect the big players of Team Fluoride to admit that they have been in the wrong, and this will even be true regardless of what verdict the trial judge in the fluoride lawsuit comes up with. If the defendant, the Environmental Protection Agency loses, it likely may very well appeal the verdict, thus allowing the harm to America’s children to continue on for months and maybe years.

Expert fired; computers destroyed by “accident”?

It has never been easy for the scientific truth about fluoride to see the light of day. The great toxicologist Phyllis Mullenix, PhD, seemed destined to turn the tide against the fluoride myths when she found powerful evidence in 1989-1990 that fluoride was toxic to

her test animals. She had the integrity to publish anyway[vii], despite warnings that she would lose her prestigious job at the Forsyth Dental Institute, if she did so. By 1994, she had been given a termination notice from Forsyth and in the final months of being there before she left, her multi-million high tech computer equipment had been destroyed, harmed by an inexplicable “rain” that had fallen from the ceiling. And the well cared for test animals had mysteriously taken ill and died. She never got another NIH grant or a job anywhere, in any university or research facility.[viii] In recalling her treatment by Forsyth and by the NIH research establishment, she described her experience as “Mister Toad’s Wild Ride.”

Crops and farm animals severely harmed

She had come to know first-hand how government and industry bias could trump science of the highest quality. But to her astonishment, it would rise to new heights in 1997, after several reporters contacted her and told her about of the real origins of water fluoridation, going back to the 1940s and the atomic bomb project (“The Manhattan Project”). DuPont's chemical facility in Deepwater, Delaware, was facing a flurry of lawsuits from farmers who, being near the plant, had crops and farm animals that were severely harmed by toxic fluoride from the chemical plant. The plant was being used to make uranium hexafluoride, needed for Uranium

Harold Hodge PhD

isotope separation for the bomb project. It was Harold Hodge, PhD, the bomb project’s chief fluoride expert, who boldly proposed that the dental establishment should send around a memo to the communities in New Jersey claiming, falsely of course, that a little bit of fluoride in their drinking water would protect children’s teeth from decay.[ix] [x]

America’s biggest scientific fraudster?

Hodge also brazenly green-washed the image of fluoride for industrial plants that were exposing their workers to unsafe amounts of fluoride. Hodge’s own research found that fluoride was harmful to the teeth of workers – most of them lost all of their teeth! – but Hodge falsified the evidence in a published scientific article that provided for the fluoride cover-up needs of American industry, including the bomb project which employed tens of thousands of workers, many of whom were disabled and many who died.[xi] In short, Harold Hodge, who died in 1990, known as America’s leading fluoride expert, was actually America’s biggest scientific fraudster and one who did incalculable harm to America in the sweep of time since then. (10) Most people never learn that there is such a thing as a criminal-scientist.

CIA and Department of Defense role?

The revelations about the origins of fluoridation, Harold Hodge, and the bomb project particularly touched Phyllis Mullenix personally when she learned about them in 1997. For, the bizarre twist is that in the final years of Hodge’s life, he worked at Forsyth Dental Institute alongside Phyllis Mullenix as a sort of a fluoride research team helper. In a kindly way, he was always curious about her progress and what she was finding out. What she was finding out in 1989-1990, Harold Hodge had already secretly discovered half a century earlier in the 1940s, reported to all the players in government and the defense department but then lied about in his statements to the media and the public and in his published scientific papers.[xii] His role at Forsyth was, in all probability, to be a mole, to report the research findings to the CIA (which he had deep connections with) as well as the DOD and other government contacts. He was likely a spy for those who wanted to know the scientific truth but also to keep a lid on what the public would be allowed to know.

So, with that, Phyllis more fully understood the depth of the fluoride cover-up. The powers that be wanted to know the truth about fluoride, including its harmful effects on the brain and behavior. But that was to better manage the use of fluoride and its impacts on brains and behavior, not to reverse course on a program that was harming American’s health. When they brazenly asked her not to publish her important results, they expected her to fall in line and keep quiet to protect her career as a scientist.

Christopher Bryson

The Fluoride Deception

This story and much more is covered in Christopher Bryson’s book The Fluoride Deception (2004). At 374 pages, and with thousands of scientific references and citations, this is the work of a brave world-class investigative journalist who covered the scientific excellence and bravery of the top scientific researchers of the last century. The book has chapters on Europe’s top fluoride researcher, Kaj Roholm. Back in the 1940s, Roholm was a brilliant and honest Danish researcher who, unlike Harold Hodge, told the truth on his continent publishing a 354-page book on it.[xiii] But because of Roholm's integrity, most of mainland Europe learned of the harmful effects of fluoride and never fluoridated its water.

EPA “experts” ignorant of key research

In the closing hours of the epochal fluoride trial, EPA’s science expert, David Savitz was asked to comment on the work of Phyllis Mullenix and Kaj Roholm. But he claimed he knew nothing of them and had never heard of them. So, the works of Mullenix and Roholm never became part of the record in the fluoride trial because EPA ‘experts’ knew nothing about them.

Conclusion?

What most people believe about fluoride is wrong. That is the intended result of decades of media-government and ADA misinformation. That misinformation persists regardless of what Phyllis Mullenix or any other scientist has published. Old cover-ups die hard. There are powerful interests that want to keep them in place. Do not expect to be handed the truth on a silver platter by a governmental agency. If a governmental body imposes a heavy-handed health measure on you, it is good to be skeptical and to push back."
