Re: is all autism from mercury?

[Guest guest]

Here's my take on this, FWIW. I believe that there are other conditions or

situations which can damage or impair the parts of the brain that are

affected in autism, hence you can have kids with genetic conditions like

Fragile X that appear very much like autism. However, I believe the

majority of kids manifesting these symptoms have succumbed to systematic

poisoning.

I know several who were not vaxed, and they were traced to antimony

toxicity. A few I know with lead problems.

The Pandas variety appears to be viral, altho I don't know if those

kids were vaxed or not.

Yep, different toxins.

I don't know what all causes of autism are, and I personally

doubt that anyone does. KNOW, that is. Actually know.

I think mercury is certainly a significant contributing factor.

Other metals: also quite likely. Please note that BOTH exposure

to metals and individual vulnerability to metals are factors

here, it is not all about exposure. I think " individual

vulnerability " may be largely genetic, although there are

certainly other possibilities.

Also, some of the EFFECTS of mercury (e.g. reduced immune function)

may also be " a cause " (e.g. mercury toxicity results in lower

immune function, and then exposure to viruses may result in

autism....)

Viruses may be a cause or contributing factor.

I know that oxygen deprivation (e.g. during birth) can cause

brain damage, and I have heard it said or implied that this

can be a cause or contributor to autism, but I'm not certain

about this. Same with head shape/ head pressures--- the idea

seems plausable, but I don't know if this really results in

autism.

good wishes,

-- Some unvaccinated kids have been affected by rhogam injections,

their mothers' leaky amalgam fillings or mercury from environmental

pollution.

But plenty of kids have developed autism after getting non-thimerosol

vaccines. In these cases, aluminum, formaldeyde and the viruses and

bacteria in the vaccines do the damage. Vaccines can be dangerous in

themselves, with or without the addition of heavy metals.

In other cases viruses, lead pollution or chemicals from industry or

home renovation have been implicated.

I think in most cases, autism has multiple causes, although there can

be one leading culprit.

In our son's case, he had just one vaccine that contained mercury,

and that wasn't the vaccine that made him autistic. Removing mercury

from vaccines in Australia hasn't had any noticeable effect on autism

rates. (But this removal was done at roughly the same time that extra

shots were added to the pediatric vaccination schedule, so Big Pharma

and its political stooges [ie our Members of Parliament] have

successfully muddied the waters here.)

However, I think mercury is still a factor in our son's autism. Even

one thimerosol vaccine is too much for kids with low metallothionein,

and my wife ate a lot of tuna during her 2nd trimester.

What seems like moderate levels of mercury can be dangerous if other

toxins are also present.

Metals and viruses tend to interact with each other, creating ugly

and dangerous synergies. Getting mercury out of your kids' bodies

will help them fight viruses, and it will also reduce the toxicity of

lead, aluminum and other heavy metals.

The beauty of DMSA is that removes metals more than just mercury. the

beauty of ALA is that is boosts the immune system, recycles

glutathione and fights viruses. The beauty of taking both these

chelators together is that they reduce each others' side effects.
