Yeah, autism rates have REALLY increased. Another interesting theory about why it is increasing involves vaccines. Look into it-REALLY scary stuff. Most vaccines are made with formaldehyde, mercury, aborted fetus cells. geletain and all sorts of other strange things. Also, children today get waaaaaaayyyyy more vaccines than they used to and the blood-brain barrier isn't established until two years old so all that stuff goes straight to their littlr developing nervous systems.
I'm not saying all vaccines are inherently bad things, I'm just saying some may not be necessary (like flu and chicken pox) and some perhaps ought to postponed (why does a 4 week old need a tetnus vaccine?) Just a thought.
the early development of children nowadasy is scary too! I think it comes mostly from milk and cheese and milk products (especially cheese since it is concentrated milk) I mean, they REALLY pump those cows full of growth hormones to get them to produce as much milk as possible, (I saw pictures of cows with udders swollen to the size of german shepards!) and milk already contains growth hormones naturally to give our babies a head start. The interesting thing is that cow milk has one of the same growth hormones in it as human breastmilk. so just think about that in relation to early development in children and also think about cancer-if one already has some cells with a tendency toward abnormality and we're consuming growth hormones, I mean cancer is just unregulated growth of cells.
I read a quote from a fellow who worked at a slaughterhouse and he said that some dairy cows bones were so weak from them being forced to give so much milk unaturally (with the "help" of injected or fed hormones) for so long that by the time they got to the slaughterhouse he could take their femur (The largest bone in the body) and break it with his BARE hands!
