I really dislike Kennedys pro Israel views but I think he’s doing a good thing to research autism & toxic metals as there as so many research papers making connections.

Looking for environmental reasons for autism is a good thing if it can save millions of kids from becoming autistic.

This is one of lots of new studies of metals entering the brain.

“Association of autism with toxic metals: A systematic review of case-control studie.”

Abstract

“Environmental factors have been associated with the etiology of autism spectrum disorder ASD in recent times. The involvement of toxic metals in the generation of reactive oxygen species and their epigenetics effects have been implicated in ASD”

Lots of similar studies on net.
