Excessive Use of Tylenol Causes Autism Says DoctorThere has been much speculation about vaccinations causing autism. Cuba vaccinates a larger percentage of its children with about the same amount of vaccinations as the United States. Yet, the rate of autism is much less. However, in the US, acetaminophen is routinely given to children to ward off fever, but in Cuba, acetaminophen isn’t used. Could there be a link here? Does Tylenol cause autism?
Dr. William Shaw of Great Plains Laboratories has studied the relationship and given his report. Ventography reports the findings in laymen's terms with a controversial post. Read the results below:
Is there a link between the use of Tylenol and Autism? “It appears that the marked increase in the rate of autism throughout much of the world may be largely mediated by the marked increase in the use of acetaminophen in genetically and/or metabolically susceptible children and perhaps the use of acetaminophen by pregnant women.”
Because many children with autism have defective sulfation, they cannot properly detoxify acetaminophen. Therefore, it becomes toxic. This then leads to intestinal Clostridia bacteria overgrowth. Then the Clostridia bacteria cause overproduction of brain dopamine and reduced concentrations of brain norepinephrine. Too much dopamine leads to obsessive, compulsive, and stereotypical behaviors. Too little norepinephrine leads to reduced exploratory behavior and learning in new environments. Because sulfation is often defective for people with autism, the body cannot use proper pathways to get rid of acetaminophen. Therefore, the body sends a larger than normal amount of acetaminophen to be detoxified by a pathway called cytochrome p450 2E1.
The problem with this pathway is that it leads to excessive production of N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI), a very toxic metabolite. NAPQI is dangerous because it depletes glutathione which then reduces the body’s ability to detoxify a host of toxic chemicals in the environment. In addition, the increase of NAPQI creates oxidative stress which leads to protein, lipid, and nucleic acid damage from free radicals. It also causes an increased rate of damage to mitochondrial and nuclear DNA. NAPQI production has been found to be increased in humans at recommended dosages of acetaminophen and would be expected to be even higher in people with diminished sulfation capacity (as is often seen in autism).
BOTTOM LINE: Question your acetaminophen use.Source: Autism Awareness, May 13, 2014.See also: “Vaccinations Killed 14-Month-Old Child”: whatliesbeyond.boards.net/thread/4112/vaccinations-14-month-old-child“Italian Court Rules MMR Vaccine Causes Autism”: whatliesbeyond.boards.net/thread/103/italian-court-vaccine-causes-autism

I just heard that the doctor told a woman I know that her son has autism. I know for a fact that child was absolutely normal and he walked and talked and learned like an average child. Once I remember that another friend of mine invited her to a night out, but she had to stay home with her son because he was sick from having the DPT vaccinations. The doctor told her to give him Tylenol for fever. Before that, I had told her that she shouldn't give him Tylenol, but she didn't pay any attention to me. She said that if there was anything wrong with giving him Tylenol, that the doctor wouldn't have recommended it. It would be thoughtless of me to say "I told you so", but I wonder if she remembers our conversation?

I wonder if the vaccinations PLUS the Tylenol is causing some sort of reaction, then. A lot of children have vaccines and are fine, and a lot of children take Tylenol, and they are fine, but maybe the combination of both at the same time causes something in the body that affects them. It may also have something to do with pregnant women consuming Tylenol, which can affect the baby, and maybe if at such a young age the babies continue taking Tylenol, it could affect their organs negatively. It can definitely affect a grown-up's liver, why not also a baby's brain function, when their brain is still under development?

I know a woman whose husband died waiting for a liver transplant from taking Tylenol for years. He had back pain from an accident and the doctor wouldn't give him enough of the prescription pain killers that he was taking because they were supposedly habit forming. He took Tylenol several times a day, plus what is called Tylenol PM. You would think that the doctor would have realized what was happening and told him to take something with aspirin in it instead of Tylenol.

Wow, good to know. I usually do not to take Tylenol because of the liver issues it can cause, and choose to take Ibuprofen instead (though that isn't much better, apparently). I should probably stick to aspirin although I only take it in extreme cases when a migraine won't go away after waiting several hours, or after surgery (I cannot take strong painkillers as they make me sick to my stomach).

I believe it's the combination of the two, but most physicians rely on the various studies claiming the vaccinations themselves do not cause autism, without considering possible damages resulting from the combination of paracetamol and one or more vaccines. Though Tylenol has been on the market since the 1950s, no one knows how it relieves pain. The same is true of aspirin, but salicylic acid is a natural substance (though now synthesized, creating acetylsalicylic acid), while paracetamol is derived from coal tar. I believe if more physicians actually studied the effects of acetaminophen on the body, they would be less inclined to recommend it. Unlike aspirin, which the body excretes, only around 2-to-5% of paracetamol is excreted in the urine and the remainder is distributed throughout the body. Another problem associated with Tylenol is elevated ALT in the liver, an indication of inflamed or injured cells. The HepB vaccine, which is now administered to infants in the U.S., also increases ALT levels and has been known to result in liver damage.

This article was posted in 2014, that's 9 years ago, and I remember sharing it on Reddit and being told it was "false news," that I was crazy, and all the other Reddit pothead insults. Now, law firms are running ads on TV linking autism to women who used Tylenol while pregnant.
