RE: New Study Suggests Changing Gut Bacteria Could Treat Autism

in #health8 years ago

That was an interesting read. My daughter has Aspergers the lower end of the Autism spectrum , she was born by cesarean section plus the cord was wrapped tight around her neck,if I had given birth there was a high chance I could have lost her.

Sort:  

Ever think of introducing her to Steemit?

She has done really well. We are very proud of her :)

Yes quite often but at the minute she works 12 hour shifts she doesnt have time

Oh: where does she work?

Assistant manager in a coffee house

Great! Nice to hear she made assistant manager.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. The association with C section may just be an anomaly in this case. Also it might just be an indicator of higher risk births as in your case rather than a direct cause.

They do think it had something to do with her ADHD

Not that it would necessarily have anything to do with ADHD, but studies have also shown that passage through the birth canal also introduces bacteria that cannot be found anywhere else. This is supposed to help the gut as well.
