Most likely Autism is caused by more than one thing. Autism is an incredibly wide categories and the symptoms range dramatically. Some theories behind the symptoms are vaccines, diets, and genetics.

Vaccines is a very controversial theory because there is really no proof behind it. Some things seen personally was the time line between when symptoms started occurring and when the majority of vaccines were administered. For doctors to look at vaccines I believe doctors and people will have to look at more than just one thing.

Diets are not per say the cause behind the autism but in some cases can influence the symptoms of Autism. Some diets that families have tried are the Gluten( wheat protein) and Ceisan (milk protein), the preservatives and artificial flavorings/coloring. for those with autism that also have gastric related issues diets can be highly beneficial.

Genetic is one very common for people and doctors to run to.

None of these are proven nor is there a proven cure for Autism

Personally I believe that there may be a genetic component but I also think that the amount of Vaccines received before the age of two is ridiculous. I also think that if a child's immune system is compromised by any reason at an early the vaccines should be administered at a later time. I personally have also seen the gluten and ceisan free diet do amazing thing for children that had gastric problem. Many symptoms got dramatically better.
