Here is yet another article connecting chemicals with autism.
Donna Ferullo, Director of Program Research at The Autism Society, “Lead, mercury, and other neurotoxic chemicals have a profound effect on the developing brain at levels that were once thought to be safe.”
[Dr. E.: Neurotoxins can have a profound impact on the developing brain in almost any level. Consider the neurotoxic chemicals listed above and then do a Google search for "Vaccine ingredients". Could the neurotoxins in the vaccinations and the flu shots that we give our children and others "have a profound effect on the developing brain"? You bet!]
“About 1 in 110 children in the United States has autism, a group of developmental disorders that lead to impairments in behavior, communication and socialization. The cost of autism is staggering: $3.2 million for the care of a person with autism throughout his or her life; behavioral therapy can be hard to come by and be very limited, and most medications don’t help much.”
“Studies have strongly suggested a genetic component in the cause of autism, but it’s becoming clear that genetics alone isn’t the whole story; there could be interactions between susceptibility genes and environmental chemicals.”
[Dr. E.: In spite of all currently being done, incidents continue to rise for children with neurodevelopmental disorders. Autism, along with ADD, ADHD and Dyslexia are all classified as a neurodevelopmental disorder. This means that part or parts of the brain have not matured at the rate as others creating brain imbalances that lead to behavior, scholastic, emotional, social behavior changes.
Proper Functional Neurological Evaluations and Brain-Based Therapy can address these imbalances setting your child back on track.]
