![diet is what you eat into your body. I can give good effect or bad
effect to our body. Autism is one of them.
Autism affects nearly one out of every 110 children, according to
the CDC. That’s more children diagnosed with autism than with
diabetes, cancer, and AIDS combined. Yet a cure has yet to be
found, and formal autism treatments are limited. So many parents
are trying autism diets and supplements they’ve heard about from
other parents or the media.
But can a child’s diet really have an effect on autism or other
autism spectrum disorders (ASD)? And which nutrients or foods
offer promise to improve behavior, encourage children to be more
communicative, or relieve the gastrointestinal conditions that often
accompany autism?
What are common medical and nutritional challenges for kids with
ASDs?
The most common GI symptoms include chronic diarrhea,
abdominal distention, discomfort and bloating, gastroesophogeal
reflux disease (GERD), excessive gas, constipation, fecal impaction,
food regurgitation, and a leaky gut syndrome. Children with
autism are also at risk for many other nutritional problems such as
nutrient deficiencies, food allergies, food intolerances, and feeding
problems.
What are the treatments for autism?
First, there are no cures for the disorder and there is no one single
best treatment for all children with ASDs. Every child must be
evaluated individually. This can be tricky because the diagnosis
usually occurs in 1- to 3-year-olds who are not great
communicators. Doctors base their treatment protocols on lab
results, parent reports, and physical exams. Even though there are
no lab tests to diagnose autism, there are tests that can help us
manage underlying symptoms.
Most children show improvement with early-intervention treatment
services, where they learn important skills like walking, talking,
and interacting with other children.
Depending on the symptoms, [many] kids are treated with some
form of diet. Medication is common, as are physical, occupational,
social, educational, and communication therapy. And because the
research lags behind, some physicians try complementary and
alternative medicine approaches that are safe.

- 2. What are some common dietary changes that may offer symptom relief? According to the Autism Network, nearly one in five children with autism are on a special diet. There is no specific ASD diet, but removing certain proteins may relieve symptoms. The gluten-free, casein-free (GFCF) diet has the most research and is one of the most common dietary interventions. About 25% of my patients find relief and improvement with this diet. It excludes gluten, the protein in wheat, and casein, the protein in milk. In theory, kids improve on the diet because incomplete breakdown of these proteins create a … substance that can inflame the gut. Studies have shown improvement and parents anecdotally report success when these two proteins are removed from the diet. Parents can also have their children tested for celiac disease, which responds to a gluten-free diet. other topic: Anorexic diet 1000 Calorie Diet Menu Blue waffle SHARE THIS: Twitter Facebook Google PREVIOUS POST Lose Weight Fast: How to Do It Safely NEXT POST Coronary Artery Disease – Overview LEAVE A REPLY Loading...
