Autism
is the fastest growing neurological condition on the planet. More
children will be diagnosed this year than juvenile diabetes, childhood cancer,
Down Syndrome and AIDS combined.
Cost
of lifelong care can be reduced by 2/3rds with early intervention.
An
average family with a child with autism will need to fund 3 to 8 million
dollars of services throughout the lifetime of the child.
Approximately
1 million individuals in the US have autism.
Autism
receives less than 5% of the research funding of the most prevalent childhood
disorders.
Studies
have shown that environmental toxins can cause autism including environmental
mercury (2 studies), pesticides (2 studies), and infections (many studies).
Autism
must have environmental triggers. Besides the studies linking autism to
environmental causes, there has never been a study that has directly linked
genetics to autism. In other words, you can have the genetic
susceptibilities (found in up to 15% of children with autism so far) AND not have autism.
Generation
Rescue helps tens of thousands of families a year begin biomedical treatment and has helped to recover thousands of children from autism and continues
to prove that Autism is Reversible
