Mercury in vaccines that the US and Britain have avalible to their citizens are a possible cause I hear.

But I blame Aspertame more than Mercury (or immigration).

Sour claw, you are doing your home work I see, You and spitty are the most correct. The dpt shots have been considered involved. I believe the combination of the three is compounding the mercury content. I also think it may have to do with the phase of brain development when the shots are given to babies and toddlers. I would not want a baby of mine to have the combination, because of a possible synergestic effect.

To connect it to immigration would not seem feasable. That would seem to have the oppisite effect since America and Britton are said to have the highest numbers why would immigration form other countries increase it?

It is getting so bad that pregnant mothers are urged to avoid tuna. If they eat beef they get bovine growth hormone. Is that why Americans are much bigger (not just fatter, bigger taller) on avg. My Korean girlfriend eats fish and rice, yes white rice (chock full of carbs, screw Adkins) she is a grown woman and shops in the teens section for clothes. If she goes to bebe (she loves bebe) she has to get the smallest size.

Why Salmon fisheries need to be Restored And Protected!

Dominos, Food For Thought?

The Importance of the Salmon fishery is magnified by it’s ratings for having less mercury than any other fish used as a food source. It’s lack of longevity is probably the main reason it is as free of accumulated toxins in it’s flesh. That enhances the worth of the fishery for future preservation for sport, food source ,and it’s natural amenities to the world of nature. It also causes it to be most vulnerable to over fishing and the problems of access to it’s spawning habitat Given the health ratings of Salmon as safe nutrician, it is sure to be more heavily pressured in the future as a public commodity in all three areas. The fourth is that it is one of the most palatable and nutritional fish in nature.

The multiple problems involved in rectifying the mistakes made in the past, which has decreased the probability of maintaining a viable and robust Salmon fishery must be put on a must do priority basis. Otherwise success will be unattainable. The intrinsic value is far greater than the cost of implementing methods and technologies to restore the natural balance in nature that would be favorable to a healthy and viable Salmon Fishery.

The sport and commercial fishing industry is a huge producer of revenue and recreation pleasure for all Americans with mental and physical health values. It is a source to be saved for those values, and many not contemplated byproducts in the process.

A National Treasure of historic value also would be lost to us and the world. If we are unable to use the foresight to protect this one most valuable gift of nature; how do we think we can or will protect the next jeopardized natural treasure in the line of dominos?

We have seen numerous cases of the natural balance of nature being ignored to the point of no return; and have seen other ecological systems fail in direct response to the loss of support during a specific phase in its life cycle. dependent upon the previous loss in it’s ecosystem. One example is the restoration of the gray wolf in the Yellow Stone Valley. The effect on other bio systems including amphibians, insects, plants including cottonwood trees, beavers, elk and deer. That one example, “well documented”, should be a very strong persuasion in favor of tending to the health of our natural world.

The importance of the Salmon run in nature affects the health of many animals and insects that make our country such a magnificent wonder. The basic nutritional health of fish eating birds, bears, wolves, badgers, and even other fish and crustaceans that eat the dying Salmon, and some of their eggs. We must also think of the native Indians and others that also depend on them for food and finance.

Market trends are lowering mercury

Despite the increasing popularity of sushi, mercury levels in the U.S. population are dropping. One explanation is that we are eating more species low in mercury. Here are the top 10 seafood selections in 1996 and 2006, along with their mercury content. The amount consumed is per person, per year. The mercury level is parts per the serving
In 1996 This was the ratings for sea food and fish based on the amount of mercury per two cans of Tuna, a fish of high longevity.

1. Canned tuna, 3.4 pounds, 118 ppb
***2. Shrimp, 2.5 pounds, 0 mercury
3. Pollock, 1.62 pounds, 41 ppb
**4. Salmon, 1.44 pounds, 14 ppb
5. Cod, .92 pounds, 95 ppb
6. Catfish, .86 pounds, 49 ppb
7. Clams, .52 pounds, no data
8. Flounder, .38 pounds, 45 ppb
9. Crab, .33 pounds, 60 ppb
10. Scallops, .27 pounds, 50 ppb
Top 10 equals 83 percent of all seafood consumed
2006
****1. Shrimp, 4.4 pounds, 0 mercury a very important food source to protect
----------------------------------------
2. Canned tuna, 2.9 pounds, 118 ppb

****3. Salmon, 2.03 pounds, 14 ppb A very important fishery to protect.
--------------------------------------
4. Pollock, 1.70 pounds, 41 ppb
5. Tilapia, 1 pound, 10 ppb
6. Catfish, .97 pounds, 49 ppb
7. Crab, .66 pounds, 60 ppb
8. Cod, .51 pounds, 95 ppb
9. Clams, .44 pounds, no data
10. Scallops, .31 pounds, 50 ppb
Top 10 equal 90 percent of all seafood consumed

I have heard lately about the pox epidemic in Brittian...But I heard it's because in recent years, so many parents didn't get the vaccination (DPT) for the fear of autism developing in their children, and there has been a marked increase in pox cases in the US as well. I also heard the rellivance to this increase IS because, while the diseases this vaccine fights have been virtually irradicated, immigration from other parts of the world (where the vaccine isn't readily available) those diseases are commonly passed throughout the population, and yes, these people do make their way to both the US and Brittain.

The newly released information about the leaching of chemicals from plastic baby bottles and probably other types of food contaniers and utencils has opened the door for further speculation about the multiple factors possibly involved in the increase of autism.

Mankind has been progressivly living in a soup of toxic chemicals. It is to be expected that numerous conditions would come from our polluting our environment.

Those nay sayers are big birds with their heads in the sand.

Just think, there are over 100 noxious chemicals just in cigarette smoke. Who should wonder about the million other substances of a questionable chemical nature.

Aspertame, two parts of neuro transmitters combined taste sweet. The consumption of them changes the natural balance within the brain. The implications are uncountable for the effects it can have on any indocrine gland and their target organs.
