* WOMEN thinking of becoming pregnant can greatly reduce the danger of

having an autistic child by undergoing toxicity tests, a Geelong

scientist has claimed. *

Parsons, of Alternative Health Sciences, said yesterday that in a

world-first he had established a link between autism and levels of

toxicity in the child's mother.

Mr Parsons said the toxicity could be unusually high levels of lead,

mercury or antimony, but in six of the past eight cases he had treated

the mother had a high level of bismuth in her system.

Bismuth is often found in lipsticks or face make-up, Mr Parsons said,

but it was also notably found in some medications designed to relieve

morning sickness.

The Newtown scientist said that with autism rates in the region of one

in 200 births these days, women needed to have tests at least 12 months

before becoming pregnant to allow their bodies to be rid of toxins.

``That's an enormous frequency rate, and just imagine if you and your

wife had an autistic child how much it is going to impinge on your

life,'' Mr Parsons said. ``It's now my opinion that the danger of

bismuth is grossly underestimated.''

Mr Parsons uses hair tissue analysis to determine the presence of

chemicals in the body. The sample can also be taken from breast milk,

ear excretions, urine and affected skin.

``I only use the conventional pathology stream to do cross referencing

so that I can find out if conventional pathology is providing the

answer,'' Mr Parsons said.

``Many women will tell you they are told they have got certain symptoms

that suggests a down-regulated thyroid and they will take the

conventional test.

``However, if I test them I will be looking at the substances that can

down-regulate the thyroid, not just the thyroid hormone, so I can

predict why a person has a thyroid problem and offer them nutrition and

it will correct.''

His treatment comprises a high density diet, which contains minerals.

``The appropriate nutritional supplementation allows the body to excrete

the hidden deposits of toxic elements which interfere with metabolism,''

he said.

Asked what the more traditional medicos thought of his methods, Mr

Parsons said a significant number of doctors had referred patients to him.
