Is There A Link Between Obesity & Autism?
According to the CDC, diagnoses of autism spectrum disorders continue to rise in the United States – and there may possibly be an obesity connection.
New estimates show it affects one in 88 American children — up from one in 110 in 2009. African American children with autism are generally one to two years older than white children before they’re diagnosed. While autism is more prevalent in white children, the greatest rate of increase over time is among Hispanic and black children.
