Autism is a physical condition linked to abnormalities in the brain. Exactly what causes autism is still unknown. There are probably a varitey of factors that lead to autism.Current research suggests that a predisposition to autism might be inherited. Even genetic factors play a main role. Chromosomal abnormalities and other nervous system (neurological) problems are also more common in families with autism.

Following are some other causes of autism:

• Diet
• Digestive tract changes
• Mercury poisoning
• The body's inability to properly use vitamins and minerals

Will MMR vaccine cause autism?

Some parents have heard that the MMR vaccine may cause autism. This theory was based, in part, on two facts. First, the incidence of autism has increased steadily since around the same time the MMR vaccine was introduced. Second, children with the regressive form of autism (a type of autism that develops after a period of normal development) tend to start to show symptoms around the time the MMR vaccine is given. This is likely a coincidence due to the age of children at the time they receive this vaccine.
