This study is exploring whether removing gluten and dairy from the diet can help reduce digestive problems in children with autism spectrum disorder. Researchers will measure changes in stomach symptoms, overall health markers, and the balance of bacteria in the gut before and after three months on this special diet.
Some families and doctors have noticed that children with autism may have more digestive problems than other children, and anecdotal reports suggest dietary changes might help. This study aims to understand whether this treatment actually works and how it might affect the gut bacteria that play an important role in digestion and overall health.
