This Neurodiversity Week let's celebrate diverse minds and support a world that embraces all neurological differences! Did you know that for some autistic individuals, the immune system may react differently to certain foods? A study published in Biomed Research International found that the immune system in some autistic individuals may be triggered by gluten and dairy. Researchers analysed 162 autistic children and discovered key differences in immune response and gut health. ? 25.6% of autistic individuals showed increased intestinal permeability compared to just 2.3% of non-autistic children. ? Higher levels of antibodies against gluten (aa-gliadin IgG and deamidated gliadin peptide IgG) and casein (casein IgG) were found in autistic individuals, suggesting a unique immune response. ? These immune reactions occurred regardless of diet, indicating an underlying biological difference. What changes can be made to improve the symptoms? 1. Test which foods over stimulate your immune response. 2. Prioritise gut-friendly foods that are probiotic-rich and anti-inflammatory to support digestion and brain health. 3. Support overall health with nutrient-dense meals with healthy fats, fiber, and quality proteins may improve focus and mood. This research highlights the gut-brain connection in autism, emphasising the importance of personalised approaches to nutrition and health. #NeurodiversityWeek #AutismAwareness #GutBrainConnection #Neurodiversity #NutritionMatters #Autism #GutHealth
