The autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are a group of related neurodevelopmental disorders that have been increasing in incidence since the 1980s.
Despite a considerable amount of data being collected from cases, a central mechanism has not been offered.
A careful review of ASD cases discloses a number of events that adhere to an immunoexcitotoxic mechanism.
This mechanism explains the link between excessive vaccination, use of aluminum and ethylmercury [in vaccines], food allergies, gut dysbiosis, and abnormal formation of the developing brain.
