I have the theories of mercury (the big debate w/ several directions) and the debate of
a smattering of great possibilities including Genetically modified foods (even sounds scary) processed foods, then pesticides (gathering the info on this so pesticide studies and autism coming soon.... also more coming.


Theory 1....MMR causes autism.
Theory 2....Its actually the mercury in the MMR, not the MMR itself.
Theory 3....Its the mercury put into the blood stream in babies pre-dispositioned to have (-) affects of metals.

INTERESTINGLY:



A 2004 study at Columbia University, led by Dr. Mady Hornig, found the casualty between vaccines and autism when researchers showed that thimerosal caused "autistic behavior" in mice.


And, in the last 2 yrs. of this study by the state of California who is making it their job to figure this out, autism rates have dropped 32% or more since the mercury has been out of the vaccine. Other states have kept their mercury in the vaccines and autism in these other states outside of Calif. have risen together a fold of 365% in the last 3 years. Now whether you want to consider or not, it is interesting facts that possibly this mercury does have something to do with autism indefinitely.





Hi, this is what I just found out....first off, it does not list what is in the vaccines anymore that have replaced the content in the study of CA. Also, For the fetus, infant, and child, the primary effect is impaired neurological development. Impacts on cognitive thinking, memory, attention, language, fine motor, and visual spatial skills have been seen. It can also cause peripheral vision impairments, disturbances in sensations, lack of coordination, impairments in speech, hearing, walking, and muscle weakness. the average weight of a newborn, at 7 pounds, could take in no more than .3 mcgs. of mercury. Infants were receiving 12.5 mcgs. within hours of birth. They continued to accumulate more mercury exposure in the following months.

The way of exposure was by injection and not ingestion.
Just found this out....

They still made vaccines "depleted" but not free of thimerosal. In 2004, when the CDC added the flu shot to the baby immunization schedule, thimerosal crept all the way back in vaccines.

Most autism cases are seen after babies have received the bulk of their childhood vaccines

The results obtained in the lab are corroborated by data in the real world












So then, why can autism occur in twins??

The autism link between fraternal twins is approx. 10%. However, fraternal twins share about 50% of the same DNA and gut fighting agents. According to the statistics i stated earlier, babies have been recieving far beyond what they should be getting so tolerance is looked at.




Great info. from Dr. Mercola

Processed food were not out there back then... and back then we didn't see these cases of autism
nor many of the other developmental disabilities.

Genetically altered foods: (They take up about 1/2 - 3/4 of the grocery store even including fruits and veg.)

Study's have been done...

• GM peas caused lung damage in mice
• GM potatoes may cause cancer in rats
• Bacteria in your gut can take up DNA from GM foods
• They may be spurring the creation of weed-killer-resistant superweeds
• Including several other testing being done right now... and below are symptoms they also testified to...

Symptoms included:

Developmental delays
Stomach pain
Joint pain
Tight and discolored skin
Nausea
Hair loss
Weak muscles and spasms
Etc.

How to get these organic non-genetically altered foods and what to look for:

• Examine produce stickers on the fruits and vegetables you buy. The PLU code for conventionally grown fruit consists of four numbers, organically grown fruit has five numbers prefaced by the number nine, and GM fruit has five numbers prefaced by the number eight.
• Buy organic produce as often as you can. By definition, food that is certified organic must be free from all GM organisms.
• Don't be concerned whole foods are more expensive than processed foods, because they aren't.
• Stay away from processed foods.

It's no wonder the world is trying to cope with diabetes, autism, etc. Even the parents eating this stuff, it grows in their gut and changes
their DNA, causing their body to naturally pass all that junk into their baby's umbilical cord... (this is a smattering of theory for autism...def.
fits into the category of basically damaging the body and its defenses also causing worse predisposition to other metals if even given in duration.
