I’m confused where this zeitgeist about Tylenol being bad for you is coming from. I remember working in pharmacy that taking Acetaminophen was the least reactive painkiller with the least number of long-term issues, but I’m hearing a lot more people talking about how bad it is for you.
The studies I’ve seen have been correlative at best, and, considering that NSAIDs and opioid painkillers are far worse over time, I don’t understand the dissonance in advice that seems to be appearing.
Is this more “seed oil” nonsense?
It’s pretty easy to overdose on Acetaminophen, Wikipedia suggests >100k a year in the us (it’s in so many OTC medication, stuff like cough syrups and the like, really easy to hit the 4g/day max dose)
I’ll still use it, just use it responsibly.
In the article it says folinic acid is a treatment for autism. Like…what?
Why are these people so desperate to find some external factor for autism?
Because they can’t cope with random chance, there has to be a cause. They need a villain.
No it, won’t
The makers of Tylenol are about to sue the shit out of this clown.
Sadly theyre going to sue the shit out of the US government, which we will all be paying for with tax dollars when they win… direct consequence courtesy of the morons who voted for this
Can they please just sue Jr. directly instead? Maybe if we ask nicely they will?
They won’t. The knee will bend as always.
What a fucking joke. Tylenol is literally like, the only painkiller you can take while pregnant. Our OB said only Tylenol. To attack this, that is in such broad use, is to clearly state that this study is bunk and they’re just making shit up
The study isn’t necessarily bunk, but I wouldn’t trust him even as far I could throw him.
No one ever looks at DuPont or 3M. Major producers of forever chemicals.
Which probably cause a variety of cancers, but not autism. The increased rates are almost entirely the result of better diagnosis criteria.
When JFK’s nephew hears 1 in 36 kids is diagnosed, his mind jumps to someone more disabled than his Aunt Rosemary after Walter Freeman was through with her.
But almost all of the increase in diagnoses is made up of people who have a favorite train livery, want their food to have a specific texture, and get pretty upset about the itchy tag in their shirts.
For fucks sake, someone please stop this brain-worm-demented menace. He’s gonna kill so many people.
While this has been a serious inquiry of study, there is no causitive relationship yet. Also I’m fairly certain we would have a significantly higher population of autistic individuals.
Microplastics in the air caused by brake and tire dust seem to be the most compelling link I’ve seen. But that would mean a rethink of way too much, so blame a generic drug no one will bother defending.
Older aged parents on average is an issue as well
Wow, autism turns out to be not only bad but also women’s fault. Amazing what an investigation under the impartial leadership of misogynist neo-Nazis can discover.
So my wife who can’t take Tylenol yet my son is on the spectrum, I am doubting this finding.
She must have been sneaking them when you weren’t looking. /s
You should control your woman so she can’t get away with this. You know better than her. Did she goto college or something and get infected by DEI?
Oh my god yes of course this is /s
Oh God it’s the woke again! Please help! Woke got me
Anecdotal. However RFK jr. has even less evidence. sigh.
There were no autistic people before the 70s, of course 🙄
There were no planets before telescopes either.
Well as long as we can blame women, that’s what’s really important. Remember moms, if your child is neurodivergent it’s entirely your fault you irresponsible hag.
This sounds like satire, as though this isn’t exactly what these people actually think.
100 years ago, when these people think was the ‘golden age’, women were actually blamed for their children’s issues. They blamed nearly everything on women. Yeah, let’s go back to that: MAGA women, how does that sound to you? Do you think you’re one of the good ones?
Let’s bring back lobotomies for women who have too many opinions, too. The world was better when only men were allowed to have opinions and women were the root of all evil, like the bible says.
One remembers the “refrigerator mothers” idea
Oh god. I’d never heard of that. That was a thing, started by an asshole psychologist in the 1940s. Legit psychopathic mentality, wtf.
e: so the jist is that your kid is autistic because you suck at being a parent and are too ‘cold’. Imagine your’re doing everything you can, but the entire medical system is telling you it’s your fault for not caring enough. That’s the ultimate gaslighting.
e2: and reading more, they took kids away on this grounds. I feel so horrible for those parents. You had no recourse at all. You were doing your best, and your child had a medical issue, but based on the social symptoms of your child you were a ‘refrigerator mother’ so your kid was put in an orphanage. Wtf.
A reminder that this wrinkly wavery fuck set a deadline for this conclusion. That’s… not how science works.
This dumb bitch.
Why do the worst Kennedys live the longest?
The family has a tendency to not have a lot of brains
Dude…
Does he even count as ‘alive’ with that Yeerk piloting his brain?
But I hear he’s great at the holophoner now.
Mmm. That takes me back.
Mission accomplished, eh buddy?
