Autoimmune disease may be increasing because we are living too clean. In the first world most people don't have parasites and everybody is wearing sunscreen all the time. They have begun seeing Rickets in a number of places where it has not been for 70+ years.:wtf: Rickets is not merely a sign of vitamin D deficiency but rather an sign of extreme deficiency.
Lots of Autism is probably at least partially autoimmune. Guess what is happening to the rate of autoimmune diseases - significantly increasing.
Before we worry to much about new things causing autoimmune disease, maybe we should look at what we evolved with more than 100k+ years ago that we have eliminated.
