This website presents Neurodivergent Biochemistry, Kitzerow’s Autism and the Comorbidities Theory, and NeuroToggle®

  • Diagram illustrating Neurodivergent Biochemistry with BioToggles and BioDials regulating development and stress response.

    Neurodivergent Biochemistry

    What it is:
    A framework that looks at how genetics, epigenetics, and stress affect how the body works. It focuses on how changes in biochemistry and protein activity can influence brain development and overall health.

  • Diagram titled “Kitzerow’s Autism and the Comorbidities Theory” showing interdependent regulatory systems linked by the BH4 shunt and associated conditions.

    Kitzerow's Autism and the Comorbidities Theory

    What it is:
    A theory explaining why autism and certain health conditions often occur together. It suggests that genetic and epigenetic factors can keep the body in a long-term stress response, which can affect both brain development and physical health, simultaneously.

    NeuroToggle®

    What it is:
    NeuroToggle® is a teaching framework based on a simple idea: the information for how to perform skills and behaviors is stored in neural connections. NeuroToggle uses structured teaching strategies to develop and strengthen those connections.

Conclusions of Kitzerow’s Framework

Kitzerow’s frameworks describe two different aspects of neurodivergence: how skills and behaviors develop, and how biological stress systems influence health and physiology.

Supporting Skills and Behaviors: NeuroToggle

NeuroToggle is the educational framework developed by Kimberly Kitzerow. It focuses on how skills and behaviors are encoded in neural connections.

Using structured teaching strategies, NeuroToggle helps intentionally:

  • Build new neural connections needed for skills

  • Strengthen existing pathways through consistent use

  • Expand circuits so skills can work across different situations

  • Coordinate timing so skills and behaviors can be performed reliably

This framework can be used by educators, therapists, and parents to support the development of the development of new skills and behaviors.

Comorbid Traits: Stress Regulation in BioToggles and BioDials

The Neurodivergent Biochemistry framework explains how stress responses can influence the body over time.

In this model:

  • BioToggles are the body’s main regulatory systems that help keep the body balanced, including the immune system, metabolism, cellular repair, the nervous system, and genetic regulation.

  • BioDials are the body’s timing systems that control biological cycles such as daily rhythms, seasonal changes, development, and aging.

When stress responses stay active for long periods, these systems can shift how the body uses its biological resources. Over time, these changes can influence physical traits and health conditions that often occur alongside neurodivergence.

Disclaimer

NeuroToggle® is an education-based framework designed to support the development of skills and behaviors by intentionally building and strengthening neural connections through structured teaching strategies.

Neurodivergent Biochemistry is a theoretical framework that describes how stress regulation across BioToggles and BioDials may influence physiological traits and comorbidities over time. This model is presented for educational and research purposes only and requires further scientific investigation.

The information provided within these frameworks is not intended as medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Understanding Nonverbality Through Speech-Motor Pathways

Apraxia is not an illusive or abstract concept; there are specific mechanisms that connect the brain to the physical production of speech, running from the corticobulbar tract to the motor nerves responsible for shaping sound into words. When these pathways function differently, nonverbality appears in one of three forms: Complete Lack of Ability when the speech-motor system is underdeveloped or damaged; Intermittent Ability when speech is available only during regulated internal states; and Situational Ability when speech is present in safe, low-demand environments but shuts down under social or sensory stress.

Resources for Parents of Nonverbal Kids

Nonverbality is an autism comorbidity. This is the comorbidity that Kitzerow’s daughter had that sent her looking for the link between autism and the comorbidities, which sparked the creation of all of this!
