Autism... Alzheimer's... Schizophrenia - Comparison

 Is all this "Just Coincidence"?

Return To HOME Page

There are already close to 160 MIRROR image parallels confirmed between Autism and Alzheimer's.   Others, I am still investigating as indicated.     Note: Most behaviors seen are EXACT matches (not "kind of the same").  I am still working on this project - mostly Schizophrenia part -  although there are already close to 140 parallels between autism and Schizophrenia.  I will update chart as more are found.  This information was provided as part of official testimony submitted on behalf of the public in both December 2002 (initial comparison chart) and January 2003 (chart updated and included Schizophrenia info also) to Dan Burton for congressional hearings on vaccinations.  

World Leading Immunogeneticist, Fudenberg,  states that if you have 5 consecutive flu shots, you are 10 times more likely to develop Alzheimer's (Refer to:  Hazards of Vaccines 1 & 2 in Internat. J. Clin. Invest., 2000 & 2004).  Dr. Hugh Fudenberg, MD)... note this man's impeccable credentials!   I also encourage you to read what may be KEY in explaining differences among these disorders!

Issues with insulin levels

Note:  Many mothers who had gestational diabetes have told me they now have children with autism!  Iron (found in prenatal vitamins in very high doses) and insulin modulate each other... trip up iron levels (a very toxic metal) and you'll trip up insulin levels (for more on this CRITICAL issue, see the paper I wrote on Redefining The Role of Insulin!)

Issues with insulin levels

Note:  Having diabetes greatly enhances your risk for Alzheimer's!  See my paper on Redefining The Role of Insulin! for more on why it very much appears insulin may play a huge role in metal detoxification!   Also, scientists such as Dr. William Frey, II are now patenting INSULIN therapy for Alzheimer's! 

Note:  Beta Amyloid is a metal chelator and brain sealant per work of Glenda Bishop of Australia!  That could make it a "good thing" and perhaps this explains why vaccine trials aiming to do away with beta amyloid had to suddenly be stopped - with apparently no explanation given!

Note:  Amyloid plaques are also found in the pancreas of type II diabetics!

Persons with schizophrenia are also more likely to develop diabetes!

Monozygotic twin (100% same genes) studies mixed and sample sizes are quite small. There appears to be only a 60% chance of monozygotic twins both having autism - yet, they have 100% the same genes and thus, why would this correlation not be 100% instead of 60%? The chance of fraternal twins both having autism is rather small. Siblings (non-twin) within a family have only a 2 - 6% chance of developing autism. Could these findings not be due to fact that twins usually have a lower birthweight and are usually born prior to full term thus, they have a more immature brain (mercury has a propensity for developing cells). Also, monozygotic twins are quite likely to be exposed to same vaccination schedules/batches and have same APO-E genotype (that would be a genetic factor) which determines how susceptible one is to heavy metal toxicity? Even twins separated at birth would most likely have been vaccinated and as such, environmental factors can not be dismissed as a possible cause for autism. Interesti

Twin studies show about 40% concordance. Again, some variation exists. It is very difficult to believe a primary genetic link that would "lie dormant" for most of a person's life and then awaken to completely devastate a person in pretty well all aspects of brain function. Have genetics really become that bad in just one generation? Very unlikely. This was a comment also echoed during the Simpsonwood meeting of 2000 regarding the possible link between autism and vaccines. Of course, if one does believe "genetics" could possibly change that much in just 1 or 2 generations, resulting in such higher incidences of Alzheimer's, how do you possibly explain all the parallels between an autistic child and an 85 year old with Alzheimer's if "genetics" have changed? That, indeed, would be a difficult "genetics" argument to make! :o)

Monozygotic twin (identical twins from same original cell) studies indicate NON-genetic link (often one twin only is impacted, studies vary in concordance - seems to range from 40-60% impacted). No "gene for schizophrenia" has been found!

DIAGNOSIS: AUTISM

DIAGNOSIS: SCHIZOPHRENIA

JUST COINCIDENCE?

If you believe that it is, I encourage you to read more about these disorders and their very common historical ties:

 A Critical Lesson In History Of Autism - Alzheimer's - Schizophrenia - Undeniable Historic Link Also!

Or, watch an online video by world leading metals expert - Dr. Boyd Haley - as he discusses the autism and Alzheimer's link to mercury:  http://www.whale.to/v/haley.html

 

This is an ongoing project that started only very recently and as such, issues are still being investigated. This chart will be updated as more parallels are found. In my opinion, based on the research I have read, there appear to be several other disorders that play into this also, including Stroke, Parkinson's, Bi-Polar, Depression, Multiple Sclerosis, Diabetes, Cancer, and many others - possibly close to 25 or more disorders.   I believe this may all be shades of the same thing - mercury and/or aluminum poisoning- explaining why so many of these disorders have mirror effects.

World Leading Immunogeneticist, Fudenberg,  states that if you have 5 consecutive flu shots, you are 10 times more likely to develop Alzheimer's... note this man's impeccable credentials! I also encourage you to read what may be KEY in explaining differences among these disorders and the very critical paper on Redefining The Role of Insulin:  Could It Play A Critical Role in Metal Detoxification?  - A MUST READ for anyone with an interest in these issues!

For more on this issue and the fact that our current mental illness classification system is an outdated and invalid system based on recent discoveries in brain development see my section entitled:

Why Our Mental Illness Classification System Is Outdated And Invalid!!!

BUT WAIT... VACCINES SAVE LIVES... DON'T THEY? Myths, Facts, Lies, Truths...   

Read the first article on the above link... History shows death rates had declined 90%+ long before vaccines were even introduced!!!  Note the trend in death rates for diseases where no vaccines were available...  it is virtually the same... so, can we honestly say vaccines save lives... personally... I think that has yet to be proven... and indeed, many are now arguing vaccines are counterproductive!!!

 I strongly encouraged all families to read "Book 3" to see how many more pieces of this "autism puzzle" now seem to be falling into place.
