Truth about Tylenol

The truth about Tylenol…..

John Hopkins University has a study funded by the NIH citing that the use of Acetaminophen (Tylenol) during pregnancy increases the risk of ADHD and Autism in children.

The researchers collected cord blood from 996 births and measured the level of Tylenol & two of the byproducts in it. By the time the babies were 8-9 years old, the babies with the highest levels of Tylenol had a:

~2.86 times the risk of ADHD

~ 3.62 times the risk of Autism

"The authors conclude that their results support earlier studies linking acetaminophen exposure in the womb with ADHD and ASD and underscore the need for additional research.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration urges careful consideration before using any pain-relieving medication during pregnancy."

Things to be aware of:

Tylenol depletes glutathione which is the body’s biggest antioxidant and also depletes your sulfur stores. This is why it can also increase your chances of an adverse reaction to 💉.

NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine) is the "antidote" to Tylenol. NAC is used for Tylenol over-doses and may also help kids with low glutathione due to Tylenol exposure as NAC helps your body replenish glutathione levels.
