We Know the Causes of Autism. It's Time to Act Accordingly

James Lyons-Weiler is a scientist, researcher, author, and educator with a diverse academic background in biology, genetics, and bioinformatics. For more information, visit https://jameslyonsweiler.com/.
In this presentation, Dr Lyons-Weiler discussed possible genetic and environmental factors associated with autism. He first argued that autism is not a genetic disease, and finding genetic mutations does not rule out environmental risks. It is important to note that the medical practice of administering acetaminophen to children following the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccination may raise the likelihood of developing autism. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1362361307089518
Dr Lyons-Weiler also elaborated on the environmental factors that may contribute to the autism, particularly mercury and aluminum. Mercury in the form of thimerosal serves as a preservative in some vaccines, while aluminum is used as the adjuvant to boost the immune response to the vaccine.
The second half of Dr Lyons-Weiler's presentation focuses on the aluminum's neurotoxicity. He also refuted the misleading claim by the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia that the aluminum intake from our diet is far greater than in the vaccines. Aluminum in the vaccines will be 100% absorbed by our body through injections, while the absorption efficiency of aluminum from food is extremely low. Most aluminum in our diet will just pass through our body without getting into our circulation system.
Towards the end of his talk, Dr. Lyons-Weiler showed us the results that living in a clean environment free of chemical pollutants will make autistic disorders in kids less severe.
