I think this is a fairly common problem among asd kids. I think it is part

of the reason that we need such potent supplements. Their digestive systems

aren't extracting nutrients from their food. Dr. Shaw would say it's due to

yeast overgrowth. I really don't know what causes it. still has it

on occasion. He used to have it a lot more often and a lot worse before the

diet and Nystatin.

Hi

Undigested food in stools sound like food not breaking down . I guess

this would be the work of HCL, enzymes. A lot of healthy people see

fiberous foods like corn in the stool passing by undigested . If it is

passing by without breaking down though I would think the nutrients would

not be absorbed either.
