The Dr. Hyman Show
Encore: Food: The Root Causes of Our Healthcare, Economic and Social Crises with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Yeah. I mean, autism has gone in 1 in 10,000 in my generation. So 70-year-old men, 1 in 10,000 have full-blown autism. And by that, I mean nonverbal, non-toilet train, stimming, toe walking, hand flapping. You don't see the people like that my age. But according to the CDC, one in every 34 kids looks like that. What's happening? One in 22 boys. Then we have the autoimmune diseases.

It suddenly blew up in the early 90s. Juvenile diabetes, which I never saw when I was a kid. Rheumatoid arthritis, all these exotic diseases like Crohn's disease and lupus. And then the allergic diseases that suddenly appeared at the same time in the mid-90s. Peanut allergies, food allergies. I had anaphylaxis, eczema. Whoever heard of eczema? Nobody. Now, all these kids have it.

They're all scratching. They all have the rashes. And we have it. They're all medicated. They're taking Adderall. They're taking antidepressants. They're taking Ritalin. They've got their albuterol inhalers in every classroom. They've got EpiPens in every classroom. And, you know, there's a study then. that Congress asked EPA to do. And EPA is a captured agency.

It's captured not by the pharmaceutical industry, and it's not really heavily captured by the agricultural industry because it doesn't really directly regulate those. It's captured by oil and coal and gas and chemical companies. But Congress said to EPA, tell us what year the autism epidemic began.

So EPA actually did a real study with real science, and the scientists came back and said 1989, that was the change year. So, you know, the challenge is, and if you look at all of these diseases, they follow kind of that same timeline. So what happened in 1989? What happened in the early 90s? We know it's not genes. Genes do not cause epidemics.

It can provide a vulnerability, but you need an environmental toxin. Our kids didn't suddenly get lazy. You know, we are mass poisoning our children. And so you have to figure out a toxin that was introduced and became ubiquitous in the, you know, 1989, the mid-90s. and that affects every demographic from Cubans in Key Biscayne to the Inuit in Alaska and Homer, Alaska.
