Episode 35: Autism, the Microbiome & Hidden Pathways to Healing – Dr. Christian Bogner

In this episode of Against the Grain, I sit down with Dr. Christian Bogner, a physician whose professional journey took a radical turn after his son was diagnosed with autism. What began as a deeply personal search for answers became a mission to uncover the root causes of neurological and chronic conditions—leading him into the world of functional medicine, genetics, and the microbiome.

Together, we explore the complex terrain at the intersection of autism, gut health, vaccines, and environmental toxins. Dr. Bogner opens up about his investigation into compounds like sodium thiosulfate, and how it—and other unconventional treatments—are offering new hope to families navigating autism spectrum disorders. We discuss the controversial and often misunderstood relationship between vaccination protocols and neurodevelopment, and the systemic challenges many parents face when seeking answers in a medical system that often discourages questioning.

The conversation also turns toward the concept of neurodiversity, recognizing that children on the spectrum may possess extraordinary sensitivities and abilities that challenge conventional views of intelligence and cognition. Dr. Bogner shares his insights into how gut health, the microbiome, and neurotransmitters like serotonin and tryptamines—including DMT and bufotenin—may be intimately linked to mental health and developmental outcomes.

We also examine the role of environmental toxins such as glyphosate and cyanide, and how diet, detoxification, and personalized treatment protocols are becoming essential tools in addressing both physical and cognitive well-being.

This is an episode for anyone interested in the cutting edge of autism research, the healing potential of functional medicine, and the emerging science that connects mind, body, and environment in profound new ways.
