When i was younger i used to overdose on fishoil all the time. At the time it didn't seen to harmful as it improved my consintration and my attention at school. Now as Fish Oil contained heavy metals in my blood stream it seemed to overwork parts of my brain. Certain functions would be over used and at a point of it being overused and then suddlendly ruduced. I also got very stressed from anxiety and took a year of school and then later dionagsed with bad austims . I have never had austim for my entire life. Nobody has ever regonised or thought for one second thought i had austim in my child hood.

I do believe that (test os stron) carrys or supports the heavy metal in the blood
steam . This somehhow tends to overwork some parts of the brain or to a greater exent dramatitly reduces the function. causeing over parts of the brain to take on this
function.
.
Althrough i dont make much sense i have seen myself devolope austim over the years the truth is that every single person who has austim has signifently more heavey metals than someone who dosne't

Fish oils, even cheap generic brands, do not contain heavy metals. Fish MEAT may have amounts of heavy metals, as does beef, but not fish oil. The ions in metal are not fat soluble, and therefore cannot be present in an oil extract. You should do your research before making conclusions.

This is speculation. You have no idea whether every single person with autism has more heavy metals in their bodies than non-autistic people. You did not go around collecting blood samples from the millions of us out there. I don't eat fish at all. My Mom has eaten even less than I do. I still have autism. I was born with autism, and I would always have autism. I agree with the last post: do some research before you post such statements.

Also, just fyi, you cannot develop autism as the years go by. Symptoms can change, but you cannot go from being NT to being autistic. It is impossible.

I just ingest lots of light metals. That way they balance out the heavy ones. But I'm still autistic.

I'm confused as to the motivations of this poster. I'd like to think that perhaps they are a troll, or perhaps are simply willfully ignorant. It would appear that this is their first and only post.

If the above is not true, then they are very misinformed, and are continuing to spread said misinformation.

My guess is that it is related to all those bogus claims that vaccines cause autism (since they also say that is due to heavy metals, I think).
