Study - ASD children have other conditions 95% of time
That's why they're called co-morbids

Especially gut issues seem to be tied to a lot of things, though they sometimes can't agree if it's "cause" or "effect".

I've been saying this on these forums for the better part of 5 years now.. and that they're all related to the text in bold.

Proof is in the pudding. Besides improved health functioning level, I have a better work & social life and bigger bank account for it. Disagree with that.

Everything I've been reading lately points to gut issues being a common problem with a lot of different disorders.
But like I said, there are disputes as to whether it is "cause" or "effect". And if it is the cause, most people aren't going to bother, because changing your entire diet and sticking to it is really, really difficult.

I was referring to cause being cited and the suggested remedy being an elaborate diet and routine enemas.

In order to effectively treat the intestinal dysbiosis that causes ASD symptoms to be amplified.
Gastrointestinal issues in ASD people is not just a common co-existing condition people have, it's the root cause to the effects. Treating the physical in the digestive tract results in dramatic improvement to the neurological/mental afflictions.
Medical science continues to prove that the gut is the second brain and that improving digestive health treats what has been commonly believed to be in the brain when it comes to mental health issues.
I know because I've been doing this for nearly 5 years and sharing about it here. My story is unwavering because it's the truth & fact of the matter. Without the medicinal diet, cleansing protocol, and probiotic supplements I wouldn't function as highly as I do nor be able to do all the things I've done, do, and will do. Is what it is whether people here believe me or not.

I don't do it daily. The progress I've made is night & day. You know what I'm like now, but what you may not know is that 6 years ago I may as well have been sly. That's the difference that treating the intestinal imbalance that causes or exacerbates HFA has made.

My progress has been night and day too in many respects. You might as well have been sly? What does that mean? So how did I make leaps and bounds dealing with hadcore autism without any of that?

It means my ASD symptoms were strong & controlled my life, I was severely clinically depressed & highly anxious, couldn't work full time, didn't have a social life etc etc. The biggest difference between who I was then & someone like sly is that even at my worst I was determined to figure things out, solve my problems, get healthier & happier whereas sly seems to be the type who'd rather give up, quit, and not bother making an effort to improve his health nor situation. We're fundamentally different in that sense, but my symptoms and negativity back then were much more comparable to sly than they are to me now.
I don't know. You haven't shared your story as I have mine.

Clinical depression and anxiety are separate from autism. I know many autistics who are usually happy as a kite, and I have been around many of them in person all my life. Also many high functioning aspies have a social life. My story is simply one determination and perseverance, which had absolutely nothing to do with my diet. I know this to be the case with others as well. My guess is your diet and enema ritual is a matter of correlation rather than causation and it's really been as you say your determination to figure things out and solve your problems. Or it had a placebo effect that triggered all that.

No.
My diet, cleansing protocol, and probiotics are medicine. They work on even involuntary nervous system/muscle symptoms of ASD like eye contact and minimizing/eliminating exagerated facial expressions. What I do legitimately gets more cylinders firing and I'm much more socially intuitive vs. relying on intellectual processing to navigate daily social situations. It's medicine, not wishful thinking or a placebo effect. I've been doing this for nearly 5 years now and know when my symptoms creep up due to poor diet or having to take antibiotics & get feedback from others around me. This is science, not magic.

I didn't say anything about magic. I said perseverance and determination to figure things out and solve your problems. I'm able to do all sorts I things I couldn't before and they said I would never be able to do through that.
