I believe that a lot of the health problems including this rise in autism is likely attributed to all the chemicals in our environment and food. I don't think I will eat dirt though.

Studies on the microbiome are so fascinating since we're realizing what a HUGE impact it has on our health, especially from a young age. I think studies like this are really going to change the way we raise children and what we decide to expose them to.
