(CNN) -- The medical journal The Lancet on Tuesday retracted a controversial 1998 paper that linked the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine to autism.
The study linked autism with the MMR vaccine. The research had been discredited subsequently.
Last week, the study's lead author Dr Andrew Wakefield was found to have acted unethically in conducting the research.

So what's causing it?

So what's causing it?

Not sure, but I'm not going to falsify any data to try and prove something for my personal gain.

My guess would be two-fold:
1. Are there really more cases or are we simply diagnosing it more often now? We'll call this the ADHD Theory
2. Overall dietary habits are awful (as you are fully aware). The nature of processed foods could have an effect here.
