Unveiling the Gut-Brain Connection: A Deep Dive into Healing Autism Symptoms
Lara and Vicky delve into the intricate journey of healing behavioural and learning symptoms in children with autism and related conditions. Vicky from The Healthy Happy Unicorn shares a personal case study involving her daughter Rose, highlighting the significant insights gained from a stool test that revealed severe maldigestion, gut imbalances, and the impact of specific bacteria on Rose's health. The discussion covers various symptoms, including insatiable appetite, sleep disturbances, and cognitive challenges, while emphasising the importance of understanding the underlying gut health issues. Vicky outlines the protocols and natural remedies that helped improve Rose's condition, showcasing the potential for positive change through dietary adjustments and holistic approaches.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Importance of Gut Health: A stool test can reveal significant imbalances in gut flora, maldigestion, and the presence of pathogenic bacteria or parasites.
Personalised Protocols: Each child's healing journey is unique, and personalised dietary and supplement protocols are essential.
