For the past decade, doctors and researcher told parents that there is no cure for autism except early intervention and therapy to improve the symptoms of autism. But now, there are many claims that autism can be cure through right diet, biomedical treatment and detoxification.
Right Diet
When you read news or articles on the internet, some parents that autism symptoms and signs had been disappeared after trying the GFCF (Gluten Free Casein Free) diet. The GFCS diet eliminates two proteins such as casein and gluten. Gluten is found in wheat products including bread and other bakery goods while casein is a protein associated with dairy products. Some researcher believes that children with autism may have gut issues such as having inflammation in the lining of the intestines that lead to absorption of molecules that are not normally absorbed by healthy intestines and this suggest that these molecules or inflammation cause interaction with the brain resulting to autistic behavior, anxiety, mood abnormalities and behavioral problems.
GFCF diet maybe applicable to children that have GI issues (constipation, diarrhea) and sensitive to foods that contain gluten and casein but it is very important to consult nutritionist or dietitian before starting this diet. There is no clear evidence that this cure autism but some parents claimed that their children improves behavioral issues when their children eat a diet free of proteins gluten and casein.
Biomedical Treatment
Biomedical treatment includes the assessment of the medical history, family history, reviews of body system and laboratory testing of the patient or the children with autism. Based on the results, recommends the best possible treatment for the patients including dietary supplements and pharmaceutical treatments
Detoxification
Detoxification is the way in which chemicals and harmful substances are eliminated safely from the body. Toxin can be removed via the digestive tract, kidney, lungs and skin. Some parents believes that their children became autistic after the vaccination of MMR and other vaccine shots so that is why they are trying to remove the toxins from vaccine most specially the mercury to cure autism.
