OK, but it'd be interesting to examine this together with joint hypermobility and endometriosis. If ADHD/ASD is linked to changes caused by exposure to DEHP, then the other two will also be linked via different paths.
DEHP is just one of the many endocrine-disrupting plasticizer phthalates that cause ASD/ADHD. Any number of them can cause it because ultimately they are endocrine disruptors. BPA/BPS are the more common ones. One cannot avoid them completely, but is critical for a child-seeking woman to avoid all of these in the context of food.
One of the most common plastics we are all exposed to is polyethylene terephthalate, the crystal clear polymer used to package almost everything now, especially disposable drinking water bottles.
Phthalates are used to plasticize this polymer, or make it more flexible - tough.
