Cut ADHD, Autism Risk From Cooking Oils, Wheat, and Cheese

Could we lower ADHD and autism rates by cutting food toxins? Beyond the seed oils, dyes, and flavorings targeted by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., which other foods pose a brain health risk?

Watch our exclusive episode, only on NTD.

Foods in the United States often contain ingredients—such as red dye 40 in Kellogg’s Froot Loops—that are banned in other countries due to their risk to human health. RFK Jr. has turned the spotlight on many such ingredients as part of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda.

Board-certified neurosurgeon and nutritional researcher Dr. Russell Blaylock highlights the risk of seed oils, wheat, certain cheeses, and other foods to the developing brain on “Vital Signs with Brendon Fallon.”

“If you’re eating these foods and the gut is inflamed, it inflames the brain within minutes,” he said.

“If you’re eating them every day for years, your brain stays inflamed, and then you develop all these neurological problems that we see,” he said.

But how do gluten in wheat and MSG (monosodium glutamate) trigger brain inflammation, potentially leading to ADHD and autism?

“With autism, they found out that the (immune-cell) microglia were not only activated in the child, but even 40 years later, the microglia were still activated,” said Blaylock.

“And so autism seems to be a perfect example of an immunoexcitotoxic disorder,” he said.

Blaylock is the author of “The Blaylock Wellness Report,” which reveals the right nutrition for improving health and preventing disease.
