 You see, the relevant question in this discussion is not simply whether mercury-containing vaccines cause autism. The question at hand is whether we can even trust the "science" being conducted on this subject. Do the researchers who conducted this study have any financial ties to the manufacturers of those vaccines? Have they received any speaking fees? Do they own stock in those companies? If so, this completely discredits their research due to obvious conflicts of interest. |
| Did the author of that report not notice that autism rates continue to increase as vaccination rates go up? Eliminating one chemical from the causative factors does not in any way clear the safety of all the other chemicals or ingredients used in vaccines.
The mainstream media, which repeatedly demonstrates astonishing ignorance on issues of nutrition and health, also seems to have very little ability to interpret scientific studies and reach reasoned conclusions about what those studies do or do not prove.
Was the vaccine study another example of corrupt science? |
| A study that shows absolutely no drop in autism rates when ingredients are reformulated in vaccines? A study that didn't even attempt to take into account the other toxic ingredients in vaccines?
This is the new standard of "conclusive" science in medicine today?
Give me a break. The only thing that can be conclusively derived from observing all this is that mainstream media journalists continue to function at a very low level of scientific literacy, lacking any skills of mental reason by which scientific studies might be assessed. |
| They acknowledge the alarming increase in the rates of autism now being observed in the population, but with this new study, they claim, "Mercury is safe!"
Let me add this study to the enormous stack of other B.S. studies from modern medical researchers. Let's see, I have a study here that declares aspartame to be safe. A second study in my database says that Vioxx is safe. Another study says Teflon is safe. And yet another study claims that cigarette smoke doesn't cause lung cancer or heart disease! In fact, for virtually every toxic chemical created by industry, there's a B.S. |
| REPPED: While the mainstream press is widely reporting a new study "disproving" any link between autism and mercury-containing thimerosal in vaccines, no one has bothered to point out that the study was published in a medical journal stacked full of ads from the very same drug companies that manufacture and market vaccines. |
| But then when the mercury was taken out of the vaccines, the autism rates didn't come back down. Therefore, the logic goes, vaccines are safe!
This is such sloppy cause/effect logic that it makes the idiot CNN Health editors who published a story about "junk foods being good for your waist" look like sheer geniuses!
What's wrong with the logic? Consider the use of mercury in the vaccines: It was used as a preservative chemical to prevent vaccine spoilage. When the mercury was removed, it was replaced with other preservative chemicals that are also toxic to the human nervous system. |

ENZYME SUPPLEMENTATION SUGGESTIONS
It is best when addressing these issues with enzymes to start with a low dosage one or two times daily. People with autism tend to be more sensitive and do best when the supplemental recommendations are eased into (low and slow). |

 Autism, a spectrum of developmental disorders of the brain that appears in early childhood, can be mild to severe and is usually accompanied by symptoms of impaired social interaction and diminished or absent communication skills, as well as unusual behaviors. Though we don't know exactly how, neurotransmitters are undoubtedly involved. Our brains need B6 to perform some of the operations necessary to make those neurotransmitters; if we don't have enough B6, we simply can't make them.

What are the symptoms of autism?
Symptoms vary but are characterized by a difficulty in relating to people, objects, and events. Communication problems may be present, such as a lack of eye contact or response when theit name is called; fixation on specific subjects or toys; difficulty with changes to routine or surroundings; and repetitive body movements, such as head banging or hand flapping.
Medical treatments
There is no established treatment for autism. |

 We still don't know yet the origins of autism but it's curious to see a rise in autism alongside a rise in environmental toxins. Many doctors are no longer using vaccines containing thimerosol, but you must be specific when requesting them for your children.
THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
The human immune system is a vast and complex area of continued study. The variables of immune parameters from one individual to the next makes the study of environmental and occupational exposure on human immune function somewhat difficult. |

 So even though any rational person taking a look at the data can see a link between autism and vaccines, Big Pharma has managed to pull enough strings to keep the people in power parroting their standard excuse: "There's no convincing evidence linking autism and vaccines."
In reality, there's plenty of evidence. It's just not convincing to them. Nothing would be. You can't convince tobacco companies that nicotine is addictive, either. You can't convince utility companies that power lines cause brain cancer in children. |

 Although the reasons are not clear, the prevalence of autism appears to be increasing in the United States; recent surveillance data (from only 14 counties) published by the CDC indicate that 1/150 American children has a potential diagnosis of autism [68]. For the purposes of this discussion, the broad category of ASD is used to encompass all nutritional issues that may be seen in this population.
Although the diagnosis itself need not trigger an automatic referral for nutrition assessment, some behaviors seen with ASD can lead to feeding or eating disorders. |
| Whether children with autism are at a higher risk for celiac disease, or celiac children have a higher incidence of autism, remains to be proven. However, children with Down syndrome, who often have autistic behaviors, are at higher risk for celiac disease [45]. It has been hypothesized that gluten may be broken down into small peptides that may cross the blood-brain barrier and interact with morphine receptors, leading to alterations in conduct and perceptions of reality [35]. |

| The symptoms of autism range from very mild ro severe. Speech development is often delayed or absent. Some children exhibit nonsense babbling and may be unresponsive or resistant to signs of affection or human contact. Many of these children have learning disabilities, are withdrawn, or have unusual responses to sensory experiences. Behavior can range from total silence to periods of hyperactivity that may include self-abuse. The cause of autism is not known. |

 In what researchers believe is a major new discovery about the origins of autism, scientists recently detected aberrant antibodies in the blood of kids in families with a pattern of autism and in mothers with more than one autistic child. The working hypothesis is that these antibodies are actually raised against proteins in the fetal brain; indeed, researchers have found that autistic brains have chronic inflammation, a sign of immune activity. |

| A 1998 article cited studies of 12 children who had pervasive developmental disorder, primarily autism. The parents and doctors of eight of the children said this began after they received the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine.
A later report from the Institute of Medicine collected all of the available evidence and found no connection between vaccines and autism. However, that has made little difference to many parents, Neumann says.
"We see no evidence for the alleged effects that have been linked with vaccines," he says. |

| The health experts in New Jersey backing these vaccines claim there's absolutely no evidence showing that the chemicals used in the vaccines -- which include trace amounts of neurotoxic mercury -- are in any way harmful or linked to autism. These are the same people, of course, who say that mass fluoridation of public water supplies with a toxic waste chemical misnamed "fluoride" is also perfectly safe. And mercury dental fillings are safe, too, if you can believe that. |

 Although he has never been medically diagnosed with autism or attention deficit disorder, Mark displays most of the symptoms. His mother tells his story in her own words.
"Mark was born twenty-three days before his due date. He had a variety of odd health problems, such as weight loss, vomiting (from just a little to projectile), and nonstop crying. He had an upper Gl [imaging scan of the upper part of the digestive tract] at six weeks of age. They saw no deformity and said he had reflux. Mark was started on three medications for reflux, taken four times a day. |

| Dr Bernard Rimland, author of Infantile autism, further explains the meaning of orthomolecular substances and contrasts the practice of 'orthomolecular' medicine with 'toximolecular' medicine:" 'Ortho' means straight, or correct, and 'molecular' refers to the chemistry of the body. 'Orthomolecular' thus means correcting the chemistry of the body. |

 And yes, it does cause autism, despite what you've read in the dumbed-down press. Only a fool would inject their child with mercury-preserved vaccines.

Hot dogs are made with horrifying processed meat parts (click here to see shocking photos of processed meat products, then preserved with a cancer-causing ingredient called sodium nitrite. As detailed in my book Grocery Warning, this ingredient causes brain tumors in children, not to mention leukemia, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer and other cancers. |

 Ivey has announced he is willing to criminalize parents if they don't bring them to the courthouse to have them injected, on the spot, with vaccines that contain methyl mercury -- a highly toxic nerve chemical that causes brain damage and is linked to autism. The action is backed by Circuit Judge William D. Missouri, Circuit Judge C. Philip Nichols Jr., and the chairman of the Prince George school board, R. Owen Johnson Jr. |
