Guest guest Posted March 23, 2001 Report Share Posted March 23, 2001 If these guys will take a minute to read some medical journal articles, there were two posted here this week that discuss the gut disease aspect of autism. The one in the Journal of Allergy & Clinical Immunology specifically mentions the gluten and cow's milk connection, and inflammatory and/or autoimmune conditions in the CNS. (It also mentions the vaccine/viral connection.) The one from the UK Journal of Pediatrics addresses colitis in autistic children, leading to altered gut permeability and subsequent entry of CNS- altering substances. It concludes that treating the gut problem may affect the CNS disease. So now they can know that gfcf isn't a mother's desperate (& expensive & time consuming) grasp at straws to help her child. These substances are a major aspect of a disease that damages the gut and alters the central nervous system. Email me privately if you need the articles forwarded to you.
