By experience i've noticed that most depressed people had a lot of guts issues, but the question remains in which came first ? defective neurons that produce less serotonin therefore guts issues, or the opposite.<br />I've struggled a lot with depression and got my asperger diagnosed a few months ago (i'm 25 btw).<br />I did notice that my eating patterns and what i ate had a huge direct influence on how I felt.<br />Like in anything, the anwser is often in the middle, a part coming from the neurons and a part coming from alimentation.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15193257452428812804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-71893533438423641912016-02-09T06:12:10.345+11:002016-02-09T06:12:10.345+11:00Is the apparent rapid rise in autism the result of...Is the apparent rapid rise in autism the result of better testing, or of more toxins in our air, water and food. Maybe both, but we need to clean our air and water, and get ride of chemical pesticides and herbicides. And, how about mercury in the air all over the world, from coal-fired electric generating plants. THAT's scary.Support your local psychopathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04683575074470814638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-54734492106779782902016-01-25T07:36:23.155+11:002016-01-25T07:36:23.155+11:00I keep only finding information on kids with asper...I keep only finding information on kids with aspergers that gluten free diet will help so I'm hoping with that information that it will also help adult with aspergers but I'm finding it really hard to find much information for adults which is frustrating because these kids will not all of a sudden not have it because they're adults and many adults like myself find out they have aspergers and have trouble finding much information geared towards adults just information for kids or mainly for kids.

I have Graves disease and have been on a gluten free/dairy free diet for 4 months and my symptoms have improved greatly. My son is lactose intolerant, so he does not eat dairy. I tried GF diet on him for a few weeks years ago and saw no improvement. I am wondering if I should have him go GF again to see if it helps. Also, I hear it's the pesticides and GMOs that may be causing us all issues with the wheat and not so much the gluten.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-41805483599091236692014-06-09T08:58:05.724+10:002014-06-09T08:58:05.724+10:00Great post!

Thank you for clearly explaining what exactly a GFCF diet is, and accurately stating that its helpful for individuals with true medical issues (like gluten sensitivities) but it isnt the Autism "cure" that some people claim it is.Tameika Meadows, BCBA, Blog Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17008810597417201971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-1458586476089482382014-01-26T02:26:42.122+11:002014-01-26T02:26:42.122+11:00I don`t know a lot about gluten and this post help...I don`t know a lot about gluten and this post help me find out something new.hcg pelletshttp://platinumbodyperformance.com/hcg-diet-store/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-54945461591854486242014-01-22T06:19:17.002+11:002014-01-22T06:19:17.002+11:00I tend to agree.

When I eat gluten, I end up with horrible cramps and constipation or loose stools, however, I have been tested and am not celiac. I was told I have IBS, but it seems as long as I avoid the triggers above, all is well. Is there a link between that and my autism? I don't know and frankly, I don't really care. I am doing what I need to do to feel good and be able to get to work every day without being in pain. I say if it works for others, great! But it certainly isn't a "cure" for all my problems :)K Bron Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15568810726327536470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-42164111440423293252014-01-15T18:36:39.650+11:002014-01-15T18:36:39.650+11:00For parents who has kids with aspergers syndrome, ...For parents who has kids with aspergers syndrome, patience is the key to keep you going. Proper care and monitoring is therefore suggested. Kids with these problems are those that need more attention, love and care. One technique that could help parents alleviate these disorder are the so-called cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people understand and modify certain automatic, negative thoughts that can affect their emotions and behavior.autism carehttp://www.peoplescareautism.com/noreply@blogger.com
