Introduction
The Leaky Gut Syndrome is a very common GI condition for children with autism. Their poorly functioning GI tracts maybe overloaded with pathogens. Free flowing oxygen and alkalinity are compromised while an acidic GI environment takes over creating the perfect condition for unhealthy cells, allergies, yeast overgrowth, systemic Candida, fungus, viruses, bacteria and parasites. While eradicating parasites may be challenging, it is not impossible. Keep in mind that parasite eggs hatch during the full moon, so parasite protocols need to always be implemented after the full moon in order to destroy the eggs. Having parasites may trigger many physical symptoms as well as skin conditions, allergies, mood problems, anxiety and behaviors, sleep disturbances, growth problems, anemia, hormonal imbalances and respiratory conditions. Some of the obvious signs in children with autism maybe weight loss or gain, slow physical growth, nighttime teeth grinding, poor focus and concentration, diarrhea alternating with constipation, aggressive psychotic and manic behaviors, and nasal or anal itching. There are many common parasites such as whipworm, pinworms, flukes, giardia, amoeba and protozoa. One of the most recent discoveries by Russian doctors is the rope worm which may be a form of biofilm from the intestinal lining or the result of altered DNA from GMOs (genetically modified organisms). Children with autism have been found to make improvements using a therapy to eliminate the rope parasite.
