    Autism & Heavy Metals

    By SafetyCheck  |  Posted February 9, 2010  |  Redmond, Washington
     

    This is my personal experience with autism.

     

    I own an environmental testing company and in over two years of helping parents with autistic children, know what is in their environment, i have found out there are two common occurances with these children.

    1.  The parents of these children claim that their children have a variety of heavy metals in their blood.

    2.  When providing testing services to these people we find the same heavy metals in their consumer products and items that they use routinely in their personal environment.

    I am not suggesting that heavy metals are the cause of autism, but i have some thougths on the relationship.
