A Nation Where Half of the Children Become Autistic? Where is the sense of urgency about the autism epidemic from doctors, government and the media?

2019-06-21T22:48:52.000Z

..."Unlike the alarm created by about 1,000 cases of measles reported this year, the autism epidemic has been the perpetual elephant in the room for two decades. Few people want to speak about or entertain the possibility that it is being caused, at least in part, by environmental factors such chemicals like glyphosate and even vaccines and their “synergistic effects,” which Dr. Seneff mentioned in her radio interview with Hartmann."

On June 5, 2014, senior research scientist Stephanie Seneff, PhD of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory made the following statement at an event sponsored by the Groton Wellness organization in Groton, Massachusetts:

At today’s rate, by 2025, one in two children will be autistic.¹

"The CDC data are on 12-year-olds. People don’t realize that—kids who are 12 years old today. So when you look at 2014, you’re looking at 2001 in utero. So we want to look at the situation in 2001. Since then, things have gotten a lot worse in all the vectors—the toxic chemicals that I have identified are connected to autism. And, of course, the one I’ve really singled in on is glyphosate. I think it’s the single most prominent chemical that’s responsible for the epidemic. That is the active ingredient in the pervasive herbicide Roundup.^4"

Is the raw till 4 diet helpful to those with autism?

I was just wondering because I am autistic and am doing raw till 4 so I was just wondering if this could be helpful for my autism.

Breaking news, please pass this on!!! A senior scientist at CDC, Dr. William (Bill) Thompson, PhD, a whistle blower says CDC deliberately omitted data on MMR vaccine-autism link

2014-08-24T19:08:39.000Z

We wanted to make sure that you heard about what may be the most important medical story of our lives: a whistle blower has alleged CDC deliberately omitted data from a paper investigating the MMR-autism link in order to conceal the very painful truth that the MMR vaccine causes autism. There is a total mainstream media blackout on the story so you will only hear about this outside the mainstream.

A senior scientist at CDC, Dr. William (Bill) Thompson, PhD, has been secretly talking to Dr. Brian Hooker, another scientist outside CDC. Dr. Thompson has alleged that he and other senior CDC officials falsified data in a paper they published in order to conceal the fact that the MMR vaccine causes autism, when given before 3 years of age. Even more alarmingly, the data CDC deliberately omitted from the paper showed that the risk of autism for young African American boys is 340% more than others.

Not only did Dr. Thompson and current CDC officials engage in this criminal behavior damaging untold millions of children worldwide, if this is true, then CDC officials have perjured themselves in official Congressional Hearings.

This information came to light in a video put out this week. Link here: http://vimeo.com/user5503203/review/103711143/91f7d3d4d8

Dr. Hooker has also published a paper containing the true data which shows the 340% increased autism rate for African American boys which can be found here:

http://www.translationalneurodegeneration.com/content/3/1/16/abstract

From what we know, major media outlets have been instructed to not cover this world-changing news. CNNi (not the main CNN) had a short piece up but it is down now. The Autism Media Channel website which broke the news is now down as well.

Perhaps this whole incident serves as a warning that what we read in the media may be managed and merely what we are supposed to know, not truly the news. In addition, it certainly proves the old adage about power corrupting and absolute power corrupting absolutely, despite CDC's motto of "Saving Lives. Protecting People."

To be sure, if federal health officials have lied about MMR, what have they concealed about the dangers of all the other vaccines? And if they cannot be trusted with the welfare of our most vulnerable and innocent, can "they" be trusted with anything?

Dr. Thompson was escorted from the CDC campus a couple days ago and has not been heard from. Please share this information far and wide so that everyone knows about it, even if the mainstream "media" refuses to report it. Perhaps this may also protect Dr. Thompson.

It will be interesting to see how this situation will be managed or spun by the powers that be.

Please understand that this is fast breaking news but it is accurate to the best of our knowledge.

Vegan magnesium cream?

2013-02-16T17:28:59.000Z

Hi everyone,

my back pain is as good as gone, though I do have a few moments where the muscles there hurt. :/ However the pain in my muscles on my left thigh and left hip is still there.

From my other thread regarding this situation, I found out that some autistic people can't absorb magnesium. Because this is my first time having such long term pain, I'm not really sure if it has to do with my autism. My boyfriend thinks it could be a magnesium deficiency. If so, it would have to do with my autism because I eat fruits that have magnesium. I also want to request a blood test by my doctor.

When I was at the orthopedic praxis the orthopedic doctor wasn't there, but another kind of doctor was (I don't know the English name for it! :p ), who did have knowledge of orthopedics. With the tests that he performed on me, he meant that my muscle pains/cramps come from my hip and lower.

^^ He was such a nice person that I was even able to tell him openly and honestly about my (former) amenorrhea from my 11 years of anorexia and how that really affected my bond density AND at how this lifestyle saved my life. He seemed to respond positively and regarding my bone density, he meant it will take a while for it to go back to where it should be. Better bone density is one of my personal goals with this lifestyle. :)

Even though there are vegan magnesium supplements, none of them looked good to me because they have salt and salt is not my friend. Therefore, I'd like to know if there are any vegan magnesium creams out there (in case I am magnesium-deficient).

Many thanks in advance. :)

80/10/10 AND AUTISM: THINGS TO BE AWARE OF?

2013-01-31T16:04:35.000Z

Hi everyone,

due to a piece of information what I learned in my discussion about my muscle cramps (in back and thigh), I'm concerned about my magnesium and zinc levels. I couldn't sleep enough last night because of this thought, especially since I strive for optimal health.

I have Asperger's Syndrome (a form of autism) and I was aware for a long time about the fact that wheat and gluten are damaging, so I removed them from my diet immediately, which improved things a bit. But since 12 May 2012 when I went HCRV, more symptoms disappeared and that defeated my anorexia as well. Still I will stay an aspie for life, because there is no "cure" for autism, but with the right nutrition, I'm convinced (from my own experience) that one can eliminate some symptoms that can be challenging (for one self or for others).

Anyhow, back to the first sentence. I have a few very important questions.

1) Is it true that all autistic individuals (regardless of form of autism) have low stomach acid (due to lacking metallithonein) and cannot absorb magnesium and zinc? If that's true is the only healthy vegan way to absorb them is through injections or fusions?

This discussion can be found HERE starting with Victoria Littlejohn's answer.

2) Is it true that individuals in the autistic spectrum should avoid all cruciferous vegetables? If so, please explain why.

I haven't trusted myself to try any raw cruciferous veggies since going raw (due to different infos I kept hearing), but I'd still like to know.

3) Even though I'm 100 % HCRV are there any fruits/vegetables that I should (also) avoid due to having autism? If so, please explain why.

4) Are there any (other) vitamins that I can't absorb (as an autistic individual) and therefore need to supplement, take as an injection or get as a fusion? Please name the vegan forms of them.

Many thanks in advance! :)

Neurobiological disorders and 80/10/10?

2012-12-22T00:15:07.000Z

First, let me explain myself a little bit and If you feel that it's too long for you to read, feel free to skip down to my question. ;)

The reason I'm curious about this subject is because when I was in high school, I was diagnosed with clinical depression, anxiety and ADD/ADHD. But, of course, the psych I was going to was more focused on money and just rushed through the diagnosis to go ahead and put me on as many anti-depressants my body could handle. Literally. And never cared about the other issues at hand. But now I've been off of any and all medications for 7 years and I won't even take pain medications or anything, which, after reading more about health and everything from everyone on here and elsewhere for the past year I've learned it's a good thing that I refuse to take any pills or medicine. :) But that never changed the fact that I've always felt different and unable to connect with people and have had difficulties with every day life, which I used to just try my hardest to figure out a way to associate it with my "ADD" even though I knew it didn't really fit. However, just yesterday I read a post somewhere else that someone with Asperger's Syndrome made describing the way he sees things and I had too many similarities to ignore, so I looked more into it and I've come to realize that I have nearly 100% of traits in common with seemingly every female with Asperger's that has ever posted anything. And to me that's kind of nice, to have an explanation for my weirdness. Mainly because it really would explain every single thing I've ever had problems with in my life. But all of this is a little off topic for this forum I guess, so on to my question...

Have any of you had any experiences neurobiological disorders, such as ADD/ADHD, Asperger's, or Autism, and the 80/10/10 lifestyle?

So far I have been off and on 811 since February 1st, largely due to having financial issues here and there. But I have noticed that, for the two times that I have actually been able to stay 100% raw for 30 days, that most of my symptoms did not go away... but they did however become much easier to deal with and I did have less sensory issues as well as less anxiety during that time. And my communication skills also very very slightly improved. So I was just wondering what anyone else's experiences, either for themselves or loved ones who have these disorders, might be?

Thank you for your time. :)

Autism is a national emergency (U.S.) 1 of 29 boys in 2000 diagnosed with autism, CDC is actively covering up causes (like vaccine damage).

Getting enough greens is getting harder and harder :(

2012-10-19T14:25:53.000Z

Hi everyone,

I apologise if I sound whiny when I post this. But this topic has been bothering me for quite some time, despite PKs great post emphasising the importance of greens, which I truly and wholeheartedly agree with and support. BUT the problem is, the only greens that I've been able to eat are celery, fennel, and lamb's lettuce. I did eat spinach as well for a while, but (I'm not sure if I'm remembering right or not) I read that people with autism shouldn't eat it, so I stopped. Though do correct me if I'm wrong about that with spinach and autism.
I CANNOT (I repeat) CANNOT afford organic nor am I able to grow my own at the moment, given where I currently live. Just as well, the celery, fennel, and lamb's lettuce that I buy end up not tasting as good as usual (in quality). But, like I said, I can't afford organic and I do the best I can.

I'm not here to whine or make excuses, I'm here to state the fact of the matter regarding my situation. I'm a mono-eater (otherwise my digestion is terrible) and I'd be opened to hearing solutions. I have thought of eating greens as snacks in between, but I've more or less stopped snacking, as my meals are larger and that appears to be encouraged in this lifestyle. I have considered trying broccoli raw as my dinner, as I loved it (as all other vegetables) cooked, but since it's a starchy veggie and (according to the raw school link) usually not encouraged/meant to be eaten. Therefore I'm hesitant with the idea.

Please feel free to share tips, advice, personal experiences, etc. I appreciate every feedback. :)

Purine and Pyrimidine Metabolism

2010-10-29T15:20:33.000Z

This is something interesting I read recently about purines. They are what is found in meat and vegetables that supposedly cause gout. I say supposedly because I remember my grandfather talking about how he couldnt eat certain vegetables like asparagus because it could make him suffer from gout. I just found out that this is not true at all! That the purines in meat are totally different than the ones in vegetables.

So people with this problem should look on the sheet of paper they get from the doctor and forget about eliminating those particular vegetables from the diet. Also- the anti-purine diet specifies lean mean..lol This is such a joke- people thinking (or being told) the vegetables are causing the problem and then continuing to eat meat! And it is high in fish as well!

Why would this be relevant to people here? Well, I looked it up and we do need these elements in our diet. I even saw a video on it by Giani- talking about do we need to eat meat to get these essential nucleotides. And the answer is NO. But paleos will try to tell you all kinds of reasons people need animal products and this is one of them. What I would recommend is to eat the vegetables that have this compound to make sure you are getting it from a vegetable source.

One of the important specialized pathways of a number of amino acids is the synthesis of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides. These nucleotides are important for a number of reasons. Most of them, not just ATP, are the sources of energy that drive most of our reactions. ATP is the most commonly used source but GTP is used in protein synthesis as well as a few other reactions. UTP is the source of energy for activating glucose and galactose. CTP is an energy source in lipid metabolism. AMP is part of the structure of some of the coenzymes like NAD and Coenzyme A. And, of course, the nucleotides are part of nucleic acids. Neither the bases nor the nucleotides are required dietary components. (Another perspective on this.) We can both synthesize them de novo and salvage and reuse those we already have. (http://library.med.utah.edu/NetBiochem/pupyr/pp.htm)

Purines play many important roles in the life process:

As the information molecules in genes, they are used in the process of converting genes to proteins.
As energy transducers, they convert the energy produced by the oxidation of food molecules to a form which the cell can use to satisfy its energy needs.
In cellular signaling processes, such as nerve conduction and muscle contraction, they act as messengers.
As a disposal mechanism, they rid cells of excess nitrogen.
As antioxidants, they protect the cell from cancer-causing agents.

Here is one example of what a person could be sufferring from and not necessarily know it is related to this or that there is a cure for their problems.

5' Nucleotidase Defect. The most recently described and most unusual defect of purine metabolism is caused by excessive activity of the enzyme 5' nucleotidase (enzyme 23). Symptoms include constant infections, seizures, skin rashes, and very unusual behavior, characterized by extreme hyperactivity, short attention span, lack of speech, and poor social interaction. This disease appears to be fully treatable by diets which restore the compounds that are consumed by the excessive enzyme activity.

See more info at the link below.

What this also means is that autism and other problems can be cured (or greatly improved) by taking the kids off of meat.

This is incredible to me. I saw a show last night where they said 1 out of 100 kids has a severe mental disease now in this country. That is huge. And I am sure a lot of the problems are caused by all of the chemicals in our environment, food, water, etc. It also says to me that this is one more reason for people not to eat meat- especially if they or their kids have medical problems.
