The Independent Streak

An Autism Anomaly

By Arthur Allen 03/14/2008 11:47AM

The Hannah Poling autism case continues to enthrall that rarified spectrum of the blogosphere where the debate about vaccines and autism rages. The consensus among reasonable, well-informed people like me and SF-area doc Rahul Parikh (here on Salon.com) is that Poling's case is rare and may not even by linked to vaccines. Others, like the incurable thimerosal flak David Kirby think that the Poling case is the National Treasure of Government Malfeasance. Here's a nice post by a Manhattan lawyer with an autistic child who notes that John McCain, perhaps chastened by his staff, has backed off his endorsement of the vaccines-cause-autism theory. Here and here are a pair of takedowns on Kirby, Handley et al's "rebranding" of autism as a mitochondrial disorder. Dr. Poling, a young neurologist and the girl's father, lays out a good case for further investigation of mitochondrial disorders in autism and vaccine reactions in kids who have mitochondria disorders and autistic symptoms.

It takes a real strech for some one to say this is just one child
Hannah Polling, one case It seems to me the jeanie is out of the bottle. And we now know what happened biologically to our children
and why most of these children have low to no glutathion.

A simple Google search will
net you a wealth of research, that heavy metals and toxins as ingrediants in the vaccines for example: just ethyl-mercury
in Parts Per Billion comming in at 32,500 PPB. liquid toxic waste
is a wopping 200 PPB it would take a fool to defend 32,500 PPB, and it can cause mitochondria dysfuntion, it would take a fool to dispute this. You see they the heavy metals and toxins deplete the glutathion in the mitochondria.
We now know, the mechanisim that caused the depletion of our childs glutathion, it was as we thought.”Vaccinations they contain at least four neuro-toxins: mercury, formaldehyde, MSG and aluminum hydroxide. All of which can and havecaused mitochondrial disorders
” my son, like thousands of others have Labs proving mercurytoxicity”
I wish people could understandthe synergy effect of the two salts
mixed, murcury by it’s self will kill cells, then these bright bunnys added aluminum, they the mercury and aluminum seem to work
togather and become super toxins, and the killing factor then becomes x 10 now thanks to China, we can add lead to that. Any one know what three salts mixed, causes in nuron cell death ? reason, some children that are effected start chewing everything
in sight and those children seem to be effected, and are the most damaged now we can factor in a study on
testostarone: A Yale School of Medicine study shows for the first time that a high level of testosterone, such as that caused by the use of steroids to increase muscle mass or for replacement therapy, can lead to a catastrophic loss of brain cells. WOW! with all this nuron cell death, it’s a wonder that our kids can even think, Oh! yes
thats right some can’t any more.And that’s courtsey of FDA, CDC, AAP,
and now the so called prestigious IOM, Seems, their sacrificing their
good name, for the greater good AKA keeping filthy rich corporations
that poison children from paying for the damage done to american children and to the children of the world

Rahul Parikh this Dr. and I am being kind by calling him this.
I ripped to shreads on an article called parents dupped by junk science. When I was through it was Rahul Parikh dupped by every
thing he ever learned about this subject. And most likely learned
at the CDC propaganda site you see they the CDC lies daily to hide
a lost generation.
After reading this you might not feel so well informed after all
infact you might feel a lot decieved

“Metal toxicity” creates multisystem dysfunction,
which appears to be mediated primarily through
mitochondrial damage from glutathione depletion.
Accurate screening can increase the likelihood that patients
with potential metal toxicity are identified.

This was gleaned in seconds with a simple Google search.
