Those who are not familiar with alternative medicine are often surprised by the seldomness of autism in the Amish people. The Amish do not have autism, or most of the other learning disabilities that our modern society suffers with. They live in a place that uses of old technologies and values, at least in the modern perspective.
Their diet includes eating organic, fresh, locally-grown foods, and for sure, they do not follow the set vaccination plan. To the dismay of the popular media and the medical system, this has led to a healthier society, who are unfamiliar with all of our chronic diseases.
Heart disease, cancer, and diabetes are practically non-existent in Amish villages. Equally non-existent are our modern, chemically-engineered medicines, enhanced (chemically engineered) foods, G.M.O. (genetically engineered) foods, and of course, vaccines.
How is it that those who are without the “advances” of modern orthodox medicine are healthier?
The truth about health, medicine, and how they are both connected to the Amish has become an embarrassment to some pretty powerful people.
