Why is the gut-brain axis so important to research for individuals on the autism spectrum disorder? This is what we deep dive in the Total Wellness Empowerment Institute certified health coach program. And this training is for parents, grandparents, as well as professionals or someone who wants to become a certified health coach. Well, let’s deep dive into this a second.
Gut-brain axis is so important. It is scientifically proven that the two talk to each other. So if there’s a problem in the gut or there’s a problem in the neurons, the communication is now not going to be at its fullest. What could cause or add to this gut-brain miscommunication?
Well, there’s genetic vulnerability, there’s immune dysregulation, sensory processing, behavioral disorders, the gut microbiome or the bacteria on the gut, we need beneficial bacteria, and then there’s pathogenic bacteria that we don’t need. So we have to make sure that’s balanced as well as any GI disorders of bloatedness or if the individual is experiencing constipation or diarrhea, as well as the lack of digestive enzymes and food sensitivities, which is different than food intolerances.
So what you want to do is you wanna really investigate any metabolic, infectious, inflammatory, or genetic imbalances that are in the individual with specialized labs, and you want to use safe, effective, science based protocols that strive to achieve the healthiest outcome and avoid continued inflammation in the body. And by doing so, you can ingrain new neural pathways and allow recovery to take place. We welcome you to become a certified autism health coach today.
