Can you prevent Autism if you catch it early enough?  A recent study suggests you can.  David Humphrey from Kirkman Labs talks with Shannon Penrod from Autism Live about a study soon to be published in Pediatrics which identified "at risk" one-year old children.  The children were given a combination of biomedical support and ABA, while their exposure to toxins and chemicals were limited.  The children did not end up regressing into Autism and their average IQ was measured at 127.  What does this mean for parents of children with Autism?  David quotes Autism visionary Dr. Bernie Rimland, "Treat Now!" For more information visit: www.KirkmanLabs.com
