A YouTube video that I found deals with a parent whose child was diagnosed with autism at fifteen months old. I wanted to find a parent who used a gluten and casein free diet on their child and found changes in their behavior and moods. The mother discusses her eight-year-old child’s symptoms from when he was little. At birth he had physical symptoms of vomiting and constipation. When he was formally diagnosed with this disorder, the mother went to several pediatricians to find some answers as to why he was always sick and had mood fluctuations. The mother stated that one of the doctors said, “he has autism, he is supposed to throw up.” When I heard that comment, I was very curious as to why the mother made such a remark. Was one of the symptoms to autism spectrum vomiting? I am very interested to know if there is a link between vomiting and autism. The comment that this mother made has sparked my attention. Since I watched this video, I have added this to my list of questions for the interviewers.
During this week, I am going to interview the pharmacist again and ask him this question as well. In the YouTube video, the mother explains how the child reacts when dairy and gluten is removed from his diet. The child’s behavioral therapist discusses how the child’s moods improved with the diet change. The video is very interesting, especially hearing it from the mother perspective
