Estimates suggest 90% of infants are given Tylenol (aka acetaminophen). Pregnant women are encouraged that Tylenol is safe to take during pregnancy. Yet, there has been virtually no thorough investigation of the neurological consequences. There are 16 human studies which suggest brain developmental harm from use in pregnancy.
Why are pregnant women not being warned? Why are parents encouraged to give Tylenol to their babies? With impacts as serious as autism spectrum disorder, cerebral palsy, and ADHD, surely pregnant women deserve to know that the little pill they take for pain or a headache might cause lifelong impact on their unborn baby.
Toby Rogers, PhD shares that “9 studies show an association between acetaminophen (Tylenol) use & adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes (Bauer et al., 2018). Avella-Garcia (2016) & Liew et al. (2016) found that males exposed to Tylenol in utero have significantly elevated risk of autism.”
Tylenol is not the ONLY factor to adversely impact the brains of developing babies. Other toxicants at vulnerable times are implicated. “Autism is both preventable and treatable. We have fairly good data that five classes of toxicants increase autism risk:
- Mercury from coal fired power plants;
- Plastics;
- Pesticides & herbicides;
- EMF/RFR; and
- Pharmaceuticals (Tylenol, SSRIs, & vaccines).” Toby Rogers, PhD
But are there clear signals about WHICH of these creates the greatest risk?
“In the debate over toxicants that increase autism risk, all roads lead back to vaccines. At least 5 studies show a statistically significant association between vaccines & autism (Gallagher & Goodman, 2008 & 2010; Thomas & Margulis, 2016; Mawson et al., 2017a & 2017b).” Toby Rogers, PhD
I encourage you to follow Dr Rogers on Twitter. He is providing a wealth of information on this critically important topic.

In this landmark conversation (starting about 52 minutes into this episode of The Highwire) Del Bigtree and Toby Rogers, PhD discuss the financial implications of the raging autism epidemic and question why this topic is being totally ignored by key role players. This reality is going to impact every member of society.
A starting point for more info on vaccines. Comments, questions, and suggestions always encouraged.
