Teresa Cody
Teresa Cody, D.D.S. is the founder of the Changing Minds Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to expand research and education about Down syndrome. She was trying to help her son, Neal who has Down syndrome. For almost 10 years, Dr. Cody found herself immersed in clinical and scientific studies, research, and theories, trying to find anything that could help her son. Somewhere among those hundreds of thousands of words, Dr. Cody found something – a treatment that changed her son’s life.
Within a few months, both Neal’s behavioral and cognitive skills improved impressively. Dr. Cody’s primary goal has been to help her son, however, after she saw how it helped him, she felt she needed to share this information with other parents.
Working with doctors from Houston and studies from the universities of Stanford, Maryland and Sydney, Dr. Cody created a new treatment protocol, which involves herbs and pharmaceuticals given on a daily basis, which she shares with other parents through the Changing Minds Foundation.
