I have just been doing some very basic research into probiotics and Autism. I'm going to talk to my health visitor and/or GP about it. My son is 6 , has been diagnosed with Aspergers and has had some digestive issues in the past. Some of the research I've seen has been really positive for some cases, but I need to do more research and get proper advice. I just wondered if anyone had any experience of using probiotics.
Hi bobs76,,
I have aspergers too,, I also have digestive problems. Here is my thoughts on Probiotics,
1.) I believe the brain gets its electrolyte message from the 100 trillion bacterial gut, so for me, it is very important for the correct gut dynamics to develop the brain function, hence why it takes 2 - 3 years for the childs mind to form,, ie talking, function etc
2.) The world health organisation has given guide lines to say that FORMULA MILK is not fit for purpose and the world bacterial organisations state... that formula milk does not form the correct type of bacterical requirements for a human child, so it causes health problems in later life, ie digestive, auto immune and cognitive issues.
3.) On a good note, Probiotics by formation of bacterial exchange form a cell genetic protection barrier substance called Spermidine which has been studied in Oxford Uni as the long-life cell substance. It comes naturally via your own genes, but can be topped up using probiotics, cheese(matured), peas, mushrooms and grapefruits.
I have found drinking high level mineral water, french evian and badoit has helped my bowels, I have a gut feeling that the tap soft water I get does not have enought magnesium or potassium in it, also chlorine is poison,(used as a gas in wars, hot steam from a shower is potential lung cancer, and W.H.O also state cancer concerns, however the public good is still served due to less bacterial disease.)
More general information,, than anything else. Hope you can get something positive from it anyway
