Autism Research

Scientists are finally considering the possibility that chemicals in foods, such as artificial coloring and flavoring, and chemicals in the air from fragrances and "odor eliminators" are actually harmful and that hereditary factors determine who will be damaged by those chemicals.

For example,The Mind Institute in CA is doing research on causes of autism such as environmental chemicals and hereditary factors. Some of the studies are on their website, http://www.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/mindinstitute/
