In this episode, I sit down with William Parker, PhD, a scientist with decades of research in biochemistry, microbiology, and immunology. Best known for discovering the function of the human appendix and as a leading researcher studying acetaminophen (Tylenol) and its impact on neurodevelopment, William shares his insights on a topic that has recently garnered widespread media attention and public discussion, sparking conversation around acetaminophen and autism risk.

We explore:

  • How acetaminophen interacts with the body during critical periods of development
  • The biological pathways connecting acetaminophen exposure to neurodevelopmental outcomes
  • Why this research matters to parents, caregivers, and anyone invested in child health
  • Common questions, concerns, and rebuttals surrounding acetaminophen and autism risk
  • The gaps in pediatric education and medical literature that often leave these risks under-discussed

This episode is designed to break down complex science in a way that is understandable, actionable, and presented through a compassionate and logical lens. Whether you’re a parent, healthcare professional, or just curious, you’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of the evidence, the controversies, and the implications for children’s health today.

For those who’d like to explore Dr. Parker’s research and related literature, here are the studies and resources mentioned in this episode:
