Autism
What is Autism? What is the symptom? I would like to share this info may it help some parents to understand a bit about the symptom.
The term autism comes from the word autos which mean self and irme  mean flow. Autism is a disorder of thought, communication, interpersonal relationships and behavior .
Factors Of Autism

•             Digestive problems. More than 60% of autistic children have a poor digestive system
•             Nervous breakdown - a failure of one of the brain function

  • Do not like to hold or hug          
  • Sensitive to loud sounds and covers their ears          
  • Like kissing and licking toys or other objects 
  • Less sensitive to the pain. 
  • There is no fear of danger.



4) Pattern Of Playing
•             Do not like playing with friends .
•             Playing the odd way
•             Like the objects that rotate, like a fan.
•             Obsessed to an object to be carried everywhere

5) Conduct
•             Hyperactivity or hypo active
•             Perform the same actions or movements and repetitive as wiggle, patted the hand, circling,        
               walking, paced.
•             Do not like the changes.

•             Not sympathy & empathy for others.
•             Significant discipline problems in children of this category, but they are less affected by praise or other social reinforces.  Time out is usually not an effective way to reduce negative behavior because they really like to be alone.

 Types of Autism
1.            Overweight (Excessive)
•             Children with autism show aggressive behavior.
2.  Reduced (Deficit)
•             Children with autism show passive behavior

DIETARY
•             Individuals who suffer from autism are likely to have difficulty digesting certain proteins such as    gluten.
•             Scientific studies in the United States and England have found a very high level of peptide in the content of the urine of children suffering from autism. This may be due to incomplete digestion of peptides from foods containing gluten and casein.
•             Gluten can be obtained from wheat, oat and rye
•             casein was obtained from dairy ingredients
 Incomplete digestion of peptide and peptide may lead to excess absorption delay  in  bio-chemical processes and neuroregulatori brain, which interfere with brain function
•             Until now there has been no information on why these proteins cannot be digested.
•             So how to solve the problem of neurological and gastrointestinal damage was only to exclude proteins from the diet of children diagnosed with autism.
