Role of Diet for Kids with Special Needs

 The gut-brain axis contributes to ASD. It involves the immune system acting as a mediator in the communication between the gut and the brain. 

 

The microbiome is a group of bacteria-like microorganisms in the body and intestines. Your ASD-affected child's microbiome contains more germs. Additional germs, particularly clostridia, impact your child's immune system. Inflammation can result from the immune system being activated for an extended period. The brain's neurotransmitters are then affected by inflammation in your child. 

 

The aim is to reduce ASD-related inflammation. Gut health comes first. You can give your child more beneficial bacteria, such as bifidum, to help maintain the balance of their microbiome. You can try nutritional therapies like keto, the Mediterranean diet, or low-gluten and low-dairy options. 

 

The stomach and brain axis are both affected by the vagus nerve. One of the main nerves that carries messages to and from the brain and intestines. The brain's limbic system includes the vagus nerve, which is susceptible to sound effects. Various interventions, such as music or sound therapy, can make it more effective.
