@Τσάρλυ Μπράουν, αυτό που σου έχουν πει δεν είναι και τόσο περίεργο (μιλάμε όμως για μόλυνση που επηρεάζει το έμβρυο, κατά την διάρκεια της εγκυμοσύνης)."A number of studies have demonstrated significant increases in ASD risk with estimated exposure to air pollution during the prenatal period, particularly for heavy metals and particulate matter"https://academic.oup.com/ije/article-lookup/doi/10.1093/ije/dyt282"Researchers found that children whose mothers were exposed to high levels of fine particulate pollution during their third trimester of pregnancy were twice as likely to develop autism. Their study focused on 1,767 children born from 1990 to 2002, 245 of whom had been diagnosed with autism. The researchers collected data on the pollution levels where their mothers lived during pregnancy, taking into account socioeconomic factors that can impact pollution exposure.Results found that, while there was no association between autism and pollution before or after pregnancy, high levels of exposure to pollution during the third trimester specifically doubled the chance of autism. Researchers are unclear as to exactly how air pollution can contribute to autism, but many believe that the harmful particles may interrupt brain development."http://www.globalhealingcenter.com/natural-health/air-pollution-and-autism/
