Do you feel that your child is exhibiting autism symptoms? Many parents and a growing number of medical professionals now believe that autism symptoms can in large part be attributed to underlying pathologies and abnormalities that far too often go undiagnosed and untreated. Understanding and addressing autism’s medical underpinnings is a critical part of the treatment protocol for individuals diagnosed with autism. From gastrointestinal disturbances to toxic metal overload, mitochondrial dysfunction to viral infections, the underlying medical issues for individuals with autism vary widely and warrant medical intervention. Investigation and treatment of these physiological issues can have a huge impact upon the long term prognosis of individuals with autism. In this section, we offer information from other autism parents as well as relevant articles from professionals to increase our understanding of the medical conditions that can give rise to symptoms traditionally associated with autism.
