Vaccine Ingredient of the Day: Aluminum (Al, Lucky Atomic Number 13). Great for Beer Cans and Cell Damage!

 
First, am I saying Aluminum causes Autism?  No.
Do I think something related to the vaccines caused my daughter’s Autism?  Yes. 
Maybe it is some combination of ingredients, number of vaccines received now days, some environmental factor, and/or genes.  I don’t know and neither do YOU , but I do know Caroline had about 300 seizures […]

David Kirby: CDC Director Dr. Julie Gerberding comes clean … The head of the CDC is saying that its most powerful and convincing piece of exonerating evidence for thimerosal is, in effect, “useless.”

Thing #815 that may cause Autism: Pet Shampoo Insecticides

In the news this week is the story that common household chemicals and things such as insecticides in dog shampoo could cause Autism.
Very interesting stuff. I know, there is a never ending laundry list of things that “may cause Autism”, but I do feel a tad bit encouraged that people are starting to […]

Autism and ADHD, How do attention deficits impact social perception

I came across this review this morn and I must say, it made my head hurt a little reading it.  Maybe my perceptions are too clouded by my own kid’s autism and attention issues, but this seemed sort of like a no-brainer study.  I found myself saying “Duh” a lot on this one, but the […]

Neurofeedback and Autism

Research on autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) shows that neurofeedback (EEG biofeedback) can remediate anomalies in brain activation, leading to symptom reduction and functional improvement. This evidence raises the hopes for a behavioral, psychophysiological intervention moderating the severity of ASD [Biofeedback, […]
