    SAN ANTONIO, March 27, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may be preventable if parents avoid toxic exposures and adopt interventions such as environmental house calls, according to a published study led by researchers from The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UT Health San Antonio).

    Key Points: 
    • The findings build on a 2015 study by UT Health San Antonio that first linked chemical intolerance in patients with the risk of their children developing autism and ADHD.
    • "Up to now, most interventions have been behavioral or medical, after a child is diagnosed."
    • Still, they wrote, "The implications of this study, if confirmed, could be significant for preventive measures and early intervention strategies in families with parental chemical intolerance.
    • And the prevalence of ADHD has risen to one in eight children, also according to the CDC.
