In the neurotoxicity study, researchers from WIL Research Laboratories in Murrysvillle, Pa., and colleagues exposed female rats and their litters to dietary concentrations of BPA at different doses from the time of gestation through the 21st day of breastfeeding.
They tested the animals for their auditory startle response, motor activity, learning, and memory by using a water maze, brain and nervous system pathology, and brain measurements.
No adverse effects were noted.
It is important to note WHICH RATS WERE USED FOR TESTING! Were they the same rats used by the other studies funded by the Chemistry Council, which were bred for resistance to the effects of these toxins?
A large international firm was hired under a Drug Development and testing Program. It appears they may have used lab mice from a specific colony, bred for generations for stamina and tolerance, and proven to be resistant, in previous tests, to similar chemicals,
and published a report insisting that Bisphenol-A, at FDA approved levels, is safe.
MEANWHILE, The FDA has reversed their position and now warn public!

Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide. It contains an unusual peptide linkage between the amine group of cysteine and the carboxyl group of the glutamate side chain. Glutathione, an antioxidant, helps protect cells from reactive oxygen species such as free radicals and peroxides.
Glutathione is nucleophilic at sulfur and attacks poisonous electrophilic conjugate acceptors.
Thiol groups are kept in a reduced state at a concentration of approximately ~5 mM in animal cells. In effect, glutathione reduces any disulfide bond formed within cytoplasmic proteins to cysteines by acting as an electron donor. In the process, glutathione is converted to its oxidized form glutathione disulfide (GSSG). Glutathione is found almost exclusively in its reduced form, since the enzyme that reverts it from its oxidized form, glutathione reductase, is constitutively active and inducible upon oxidative stress. In fact, the ratio of reduced glutathione to oxidized glutathione within cells is often used scientifically as a measure of cellular toxicity.
New data that show an average of 1 in every 110 children in certain parts of the United States has an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Getting the Heavy Metals Out !
Calcium competes with zinc for absorption by the body.
Ballance is important,
If you are not consuming enough calcium, your body is tapping into your bone reserves to pull out the needed calcium.
One of the primary places lead is stored is in the bone because it has a natrual attraction for Calcium.
Zinc is a crucial nutrient in autism, and after careful observation of thousands of patients, clinicians are now comfortable with higher zinc doses. For optimal absorption, zinc picolinate or citrate, 1-3mg/kg/day, is given away from other minerals and cereal grains
(but O.K. with bedtime vitamin C). Mean-or-above red-cell levels on follow-up testing are desirable.
