A recent review of U.S. special education data revealed a three-fold increase in autism and a four-fold increase in delayed development among public school children. That leads us to ask:
Can bad food make good genes go bad?
The 1405th edition of the Food Chain Radio Podcast with Michael Olson features Dr. Renee Dufault, Executive Director and Principal Investigator, Food Ingredient & Health Research Institute, whose research points to one of the reasons for the three-fold increase in autism and four-fold increase in delayed development among public school children.
Topics include how Dr. Dufault’s research at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration led to her private research into the heavy metal contamination of ultra-processed foods; how nutritional epigenetics describes the deterioration of the brains of public school children; and how that mental deterioration is compounded through generations of people.
