First let’s see what is the major issue that children with Autism face – 

Digestive issues –

Children with autism often experience digestive issues because of the high Pitta imbalance. Imbalances in pitta cause dry, rough skin, constipation, diarrhea, burning sensation in the stomach region, hiccups. 

In Autism there is significant disorder of digestion. For example, the child cannot digest certain foods, has difficulty absorbing nutrients through their gastrointestinal tract, and has several problems in the absorption of water and minerals from the food dumped into the stomach. 

Behavioural issues – Due to digestive issues pitta dosha gets unbalanced in children with autism that gives rise to aggressive behavior, fury,  sense of insatiability and imposing at people with fists stones, and the like. 

Toxin build up due to environmental pollution – 

Environmental toxins are known to harm children’s health. Because small children breathe more air and consume more food, they are much more vulnerable to environmental toxins than adults. The impact of environmental factors on children’s health is more far-reaching than previously thought.

That’s the reason why Autistic children require proper dietary modifications and special care.
