| Quote: | NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Amish children raised on rural farms in northern Indiana suffer from asthma and allergies less often even than Swiss farm kids, a group known to be relatively free from allergies, according to a new study.

Ah, the Amish vaccination/low autism rate myth. First of all, the Amish do vaccinate, and second of all, there are autistic children among the Amish -- it's just that the Amish are less eager to have their children labelled and treated differently from their other children. They are also more accepting of differences and handicaps in their children.
I would guess that a low incidence of allergies among the Amish is related to the food they eat, but many Amish eat the exact same stuff that others eat. They shop at Wal-Mart, etc. (for example, if you go to the Wal-Mart in Gap, PA, right on the border between Chester and Lancaster Counties, you will see the Amish buggies parked outside).
