Reporting

[edit]

Tsouderos is known for authoring articles about controversial autism therapies such as BDTH2,[5] chelation therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.[6] She has also written an article about Anjum Usman, a doctor in Naperville, Illinois who critics say prescribes supplements and treatments for autistic children which were based in part on inappropriate lab testing.[7] Another of her articles focused on the suspension of Mark Geier's medical license,[8] as well as, more generally, his use of Lupron to treat autistic children.[9] Other topics of her reporting include the potential role of XMRV in the etiology of chronic fatigue syndrome,[10] as well as the efficacy of anti-aging creams.[11]
