I'm sorry, but it seems, you don't really know much about autism. It is not a disease which you develop over the years, because you have been not played enough in the dirt.
You born with it.
Also, there is no known 'cure' for autism.
- ada1981 9y agoI certainly don't know a lot about Autism, you are right about that. Since this drug is found in the dirt, I became curious if there might be a link between microbial exposure and autism. I started to look and came across an article in the American Journal of Public Health that said the one of the biggest factors for risk of autism was urban vs Rural and that researchers speculated it may have to do with neonatal microbial exposure. AUTISM AND URBANIZATION https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2882422/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2882422/ I spoke with an SF biohacker doctor friend who said that autism "for certain” was connected to the microbiome. I don't claim to be an expert, but my curiosity is certainly leading me to some new personal discoveries about Autism.
