 Autism and Gut Health!
Autism is primarily a disruption in the brain. However, research has shown that gut bacteria may play a role in Autism symptoms. You may ask, how can this happen? Well, for starters, sufferers of Autism may have an imbalance in their gut bacteria that can may be from all kinds of toxic exposures, from heavy metals, the environment, medicine, food additives, food sensitivities, and possible nutritional deficiencies. If there is poor digestion and absorption of food, substances may pass into the blood stream and harm the brain causing potential symptoms of Autism. Foods that may be related to Autism are wheat, dairy, and gluten which can be difficult to digest. The first thing we would have to do is take note of your child's diet, behaviors, alongside all the foods they're eating. This can help to identify the suspects potential causing the autistic symptoms. Many parents who bring their children to the office have recognized a vast improvement in their children after changes were made in the diet. It's important to know that no two people with Autism will have the same set of symptoms, but there may be a few common characteristics that are familiar. Symptoms of Autism:Difficulty with social interactionHyper activity/ADHDLanguage impairmentRepetitive behaviorsImmune dysfunctionSleep and mood disordersOver or under sensitive to soundDifficulty dealing with change to routine
