Do you know someone that suffers from autism? If so, it is quite likely you have searched for answers as to its causes or ways to help its victims.
While it is undetermined exactly what causes autism one theory suggests that the MMR (Mumps-Measles-Rubella) vaccine or the mercury-based preservative, commonly referred to as thimerosal, which is used in vaccines, may be connected to autism. It is believed that the presence of certain metals such as mercury may cause intestinal problems that lead to autism development.
Mercury is also present in tooth fillings commonly referred to as amalgam fillings. And while mercury is harmful to EVERYONE, if an expectant mother gets amalgam fillings during pregnancy this mercury can leech into the unborn babies system and wreak havoc. (We’ll cover this more later).
