Autism is an overwhelming, heartbreaking epidemic. One theory of possible cause is vitamin d deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency has statistically been on the rise approximately parallel to the rise in autism symptoms. Some Vitamin D experts have theorized that Vitamin D deficiency may be a contributing factor in the autism symptoms epidemic. A study is under way to test the theory and I will talk about it in a later post.
The latest statistics tell us that one of every 110 children, both boys and girls, born will have autism. The prevalence is worse in some states and here in Missouri we have the unbelievable prospect of one boy of every 52 developing autism symptoms. This is horrifying and is unacceptable. In the very near future, autism will be effecting most families in the country. It dwarfs the other epidemics of our time including the polio epidemic of the 1950’s. In my blog posts during the next few months I will address the questions that everyone, especially the media, should be asking:
• Is there a simple vitamin that can help prevent and/or treat autism?
• What can be done to prevent autism during pregnancy?
• What can be done to prevent autism in childhood?
• What are the risk factors for autism during pregnancy?
• What are the risk factors for autism during childhood?
• What can be done to prevent autism Google
• What causes autism?
• Do vaccines play a role or not?
• Does overuse of antibiotics contribute to autism?
• What are biomedical protocols for autism treatment?
• The success had by Jenny McCarthy and many others.
• What are the political ramifications?
• The incestuous relationship between pharmaceutical companies and the National Institutes of Health.
• The autism cover-up.
