Why Are Autism Rates Skyrocketing in the U.S.? - AI Podcast

From Dr. Joseph Mercola - Take Control of Your Health Dr. Mercola

Story at-a-glance

Autism rates in the U.S. have surged by 17% in just two years, with 1 in 31 children now affected — a public health crisis experts say must no longer be ignored
Most diagnosed children have intellectual disabilities, debunking claims that rising rates are due to better detection of mild cases
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report omitted environmental factors entirely, despite mounting research linking toxins like glyphosate, heavy metals, and EMFs to neurological harm and autism-related outcomes
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is launching an unprecedented investigation into environmental triggers, urging researchers to "follow the science" and deliver initial findings by September to guide future action
Disparities in autism rates across racial groups raise urgent questions, as Asian, Black, and Hispanic children face significantly higher diagnoses — a signal that systemic and environmental factors demand deeper scrutiny
