Gut Issues And Autism

I've always had digestive issues. Recently I've discovered that there is a link between autism and gut issues. I find this really interesting. I would love to know if you too are autistic and suffer with gut problems.

I have struggled with gut issues for a long time,and have experienced symptoms like yours for what seems like forever.I had a late diagnosis of autism 5 years ago,and I am beginning to realise the health impact of anxiety in my life.I suspect that anxiety and stress perceptions have a lot to answer for!I enjoy your videos,and find them giving me food for thought.Thank you very much!

Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. I’m so glad you like the videos. I agree, the anxiety and stress certainly play a part in gut issues. I try to minimise it as much as possible but it’s inevitable!

Oh god, I have horrible gut issues, went from doctor to doctor for years, did all the tests and everything "looked great"... A few month ago I got an official ASD diagnosis, but to be honest that doesn't help that much, I can't have my whole life ruled by my gut issues... I kinda wish it was something treatable, I'm considering going on some sort of psychiatric medication just to try having a normal life and not be worried if I'll be able to find the toilet fast enough...

It’s a challenge isn’t it? I had the same, with all tests coming back negative. I found that celery juice helped me. Have you tried it? I used to have it every morning on an empty stomach but now I only have it twice a week. It’s really helped.
