Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Twice Exceptional I think I cured DS's AD/HD

I don't think Autism is a single disease. I think of Autism as a set of symptoms which may arise from different causes. I think it could be several starting points which have a common endpoint in the brain. It depends on how you define autism on whether or not a person where dietary changes improves the condition. If you define it as a set of symptoms, not matter the cause, then it's ASD.

I find this fascinating and I'm happy that you're finding something that works!

This reminds me of the PANDAS where excess of antibodies to strep causes neurological pathology.
