Autism is a very complex condition at this point. However, a year and a half ago, it was more confusing than today after we first heard that our daughter could possibly be Autistic. It took a while to diagnose, but through several months of “expert” observation, we were indeed given the dreaded diagnosis of Autism Spectru...

The possibility and probability of a gut-to-brain connection in autism.
Ann Clin Psychiatry. 2009 Oct-Dec;21(4):205-11. The possibility and probability of a gut-to-brain connection in autism. Reichelt KL, Knivsberg AM. Department of Pediatric Research, Rikshospitalet Medical Centre, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway. karlr@ulrik.uio.no BACKGROUND: We have shown that urine peptide increase is found in autism, and that some of these peptides have a dietary origin. To be ... -
What is homeostasis?
Human homeostasis refers to the body’s ability to regulate physiologically its inner environment to ensure its stability in response to fluctuations in the outside environment and the weather. The liver, the kidneys, and the brain (hypothalamus, the autonomic nervous system and the endocrine system[1]) help maintain homeostasis. The liver is responsible for metabolizing toxic substances and ... -
Scientific Link to Autism Identified; imbalance between glutamate and glycine
JACKSON, N.J., Nov. 18 /PRNewswire/ — During its research into the application of neuroscience in business, a New Jersey based think tank, The Center for Modeling Optimal Outcomes®, LLC (The Center) made an inadvertent and amazing discovery. The Center examined the neuroscientific dynamics of logic and emotion in decision making while researching neuroscience in business. They found unique ... -
Immune activation of peripheral blood and mucosal CD3+ lymphocyte cytokine profiles in children with autism and gastrointestinal symptoms.
Gastrointestinal pathology, characterized by lymphoid nodular hyperplasia and entero-colitis, has been demonstrated in a cohort of children with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). Systemic and intestinal mucosal immune dysregulation was assessed in ASD children with gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms (n = 18), and typically developing controls (n = 27), including non-inflamed controls (NIC) and inflame... -
Intestinal lymphocyte populations in children with regressive autism: evidence for extensive mucosal immunopathology.
Inflammatory intestinal pathology has been reported in children with regressive autism (affected children). Detailed analysis of intestinal biopsies in these children indicates a novel lymphocytic enterocolitis with autoimmune features; however, links with cognitive function remain unclear. To characterize further, the nature and extent of this disease we examined the mucosal infiltrate using flow...
