[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's wrong with children these days? Peanut allergies, autism. it's terrible![/quote] Peanut allergies are probably due to the environment being too clean. The immune system overreacts when it gets a new protein exposure (peanuts) because it's been sitting around with nothing to do for a long time. Autism is likely due to some environmental exposure switching on certain genes in some kids. One culprit may be flame retardant chemicals in furniture and pajamas. (It builds up in breast tissue, BTW, and gets into breast milk so the baby is exposed to both his environment and his food.)[/quote]
