Mounting research is finding a VERY strong link to Autism.....

[Guest guest]

I am a 27 year old male, and I've had the SPECT scans done back in 2006.

I've had all sorts of severe troubles for years and years- and it has taken me a

long time to finally begin figuring out what is causing 'me' problems.

I've been seeing Dr. for over two years.

It has taken a long time to figure a lot of this out but after many different

courses of anti-biotics, pro-biotics, Valtrex, Acyclovir, Lamisil, Diflucan,

Nizoral, etc, etc... and sticking to a strict diet... It has taken me a long

time to realize that I can not tolerate chemicals, exhaust, synthetic odors,

fabric, cleaners, etc.

I couldn't tell any difference with the meds such as listed above- but sticking

to a diet that is without dairy, wheat/gluten, mostly organic, oats, fish,

etc...

And avoidance of the things that cause me triggers, I have been doing much

better.

Over the past many months I've come across more and more studies linking autism

with chemicals... which 'I' believe is a huge over-looked factor concerning the

illness.

I'll post some links below-

I want to point out that over the years I myself have never been diagnosed with

Autism, but looking back I have had many of the symptoms of the illness. I've

had trouble my entire life.

I am actually in the process of checking out , Arizona as a potential

place to live because the air quality is supposed to be very good and there are

supposed to be few allergens there as well.

I have to wash my clothes in a natural laundry soap that we make, I can't

tolerate anything but purely natural cleaning products, I can't tolerate diesel

exhaust, smog, pollution, even news papers, regular shampoo, conditioner,

chemical fertilizer, normal window cleaner, new carpet, and furniture... newly

remodled places, paint, etc, etc...

I have some suggested reading for anyone interested...

One is the book by Dr. Pall; Explaining " Unexplained illnesses. "

The other is Overcoming Autism: Dylan's story, By Cristin Fergus.

The studies linking chemicals to Autism are listed below:

I can share more information on what I've had to change and what I have to avoid

and maybe post a link for making your own laundry detergent, as well as places

to buy natural cleaners that work ok, and don't cost too awful much.
