The spectacular rise in the incidence of autism—an increase
of something like 1500% over the past twenty years[i]—has
left parents, clinicians and researchers scratching their heads in bewilderment.
Often-heard claims that increased awareness and recognition of the disorder
account for this rapid rise seem naive at best. Something must be causing it.
Because symptoms of autism most often develop in toddlers,
suspicion has often fallen on childhood vaccinations, particularly the MMR
vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella) and the use of the heavy metal mercury in
vaccines. However, no one has managed to firmly establish a causality link
between vaccine uptake and the development of autism.
In 2007, Mariea and Carlo[ii]
proposed that our increased use of wireless technology may be a significant
factor—along with other environmental factors and genetics—in this dramatic
rise in the incidence of autism. It seems odd that few other researchers have
followed this line of inquiry.
One who has is Swiss researcher Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt. In
this interview, he talks about some of the work he is doing and the effects
ambient electromagnetic radiation may have during pregnancy on the development of the unborn baby that may lead to autism.
Tamara Mariea, one of the researchers in the 2007 study
mentioned above, works with autistic children. In a summary of her talk at a
technology conference in 2006[iii]
she describes how autistic children are particularly susceptible to stress
caused by electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and are unable to detoxify the heavy metals
that build up within their systems unless they are in an EMF-neutral
environment. In her talk, she shares several success stories of significant improvement
in autistic children following EMF and heavy metal detoxification.
I’d like to end this blog post with another video link, this
to cardiologist Dr Sinatra speaking in 2011 on the relationship between
wireless technology and learning disabilities such as autism and ADHD. He
reminds us that autism frequency in North America today is an unprecedented 1
in 67 male births, a little over 1 in 100 for girls. He calls our growing passion for, and reliance on, wireless
technology “The greatest experiment ever...You can’t see it, you can’t feel it,
you can’t taste it [but] it is a silent killer.” He also notes that conventional
medicine cannot recognize EMF damage because it has no biological markers, and conventional lab tests do not pick up the DNA
damage. Watch.
I’ve also written two related posts on wireless modems (EMFs): my experience, and one on general EMF sensitivity which you may find of interest.
Susan, since the introduction of ultrasound, baby monitors, and mobile phones given to babies as a toy to play with; autism and cerebral palsy has increased 1500% in the last decade. Far too many mums have ultrasounds, and far too many mums worry about the babies while sleeping. The baby monitors are just as bad as DECT phone, and stew the new brain that is forming by microwave radiation....
