New study confirms many children with autism have mercury poisoning 
A new study, "A Prospective Study of Mercury Toxicity Biomarkers in Autistic Spectrum Disorders" confirms that many children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder suffer from mercury poisoning. The study has just been published in the most recent issue of the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, (Part A (volume 70, issue 20, pgs 1723-1730). The study used a specific urinary marker to assess the body burden of Mercury in children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. For many years there has been controversy over whether or not Mercury containing vaccines are linked to the current autism epidemic. The authors of this study with this research suggest that Mercury from Thimerosol-containing vaccines and possibly other medicines has been a major cause of Autism Spectrum Disorder cases. According to recent Center for Disease Control records, Autism Spectrum Disorder now occurs in as many as 1/150 children. For more information on this study and their test methods to: http://www.Mercury-freeDrugs.org My thoughts: This is no surprise as any healthcare practitioner who routinely sees children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and tests for Mercury, generally finds it in high levels. But, we feel, this is merely the tip of the iceberg. Are we only looking for it in just the worst ones? What percentage of children are sub-clinically Mercury toxic? That is to say, they have high mercury levels but are not compromised to the degree that they have clinical symptoms. What about those children who have an IQ drop of 10 or 20 or 30 points, or where the level of coordination is reduced, or mild hyperactive symptoms, or allergies? Is mercury looked for in these cases as an underlying cause? Rarely! Yet this factor could greatly influence a child's future development and ultimate success. For this reason we feel it is imperative that heavy metals be looked for in all children on routine visits. Every health care practitioner should have a high index of suspicion in all children, but especially those with recurrent infection, allergies, slow development, school troubles, or behavioral difficulties. Heavy metals like Mercury and Lead can be safely removed from the body under the supervision of a healthcare practitioner, who is trained in this area. Many such healthcare practitioners utilize Metal-Free as a way to improve the body excretion of heavy metals. The ingredients in metal free have been shown to increase excretion of heavy metals in both children and adults. For more information on metal free go to BodyHealth.com/html/metalfree . Dr. George Springer at Lifeworks Wellness Center is an expert in heavy metal toxicity and works with children and adults to diagnose this and treat it.
