The human microbiome has changed since the birth of Agriculture.
How much has the new set of microbes that we now have, affected our health?
Could Autism be related in some way to the new microbiome in our bodies?

Food for thought.

Yes, the ABC documentary is very interesting.

Here is an in-depth account of the history of the Western diet that has conquered the world:

Many of effects of the modern diet may still be unknown.

Scientific research in the life sciences often involves controlled animal studies over several generations. The challenge with the human diet and human triggered environmental influences, such as the large scale release of human engineered chemicals that stay in the environment for decades or longer, is that it is often difficult to impossible to find control groups that are not affected.
