Stem Cell Therapy To Heal The Autistic Gut
Autism Spectrum Disorder affects 1 in every 68 children in the United States. Although ASD primarily impacts the brain, children with autism are also highly affected by (GI) gastrointestinal issues that have a drastic effect on their behavior and even speech.
According to recent studies, 9 out of 10 autistic children suffer from gastrointestinal issues and intestinal permeability. This condition affects children’s behavior, due to the presence of toxins and bacterias that “leak” through the intestinal wall into the blood-stream thus affecting brain response, social and behaviors.
Today we will analyze how stem cell therapy helps to heal the gut and thus improving and easing overall autistic traits.
What Is Stem Cell Therapy?
Stem Cell Therapy is a novel method of modulating the immune system, leveraging the body’s repair mechanism and direct it to repair, heal and potentially regenerate different tissues. It also allows physicians to expand the number of cells normally produced by a healthy individual and concentrate those cells to address the specific areas of concern.
What Are The Benefits of Stem Cells?
Stem cells can address pretty much any affected tissue in the human body and regenerate it by triggering a healing cascade of that particular tissue. This is a process that happens every day in our bodies and which allows us to stay on top of the normal wear and tear that our organs and tissues are exposed to.
How Does Stem Cell Therapy Help The Autistic Gut?
As we mentioned above Stem Cells are mainly geared to focus on the three main autistic areas of concern: Gut, brain, and inflammation.
Among autistic children, intestinal problems such as constipation and gut pain are common.
Medical research indicates that autistic children have considerably fewer gut bacteria than neurotypical children, this is known as dysbiosis. The intestinal bacterial imbalance contributes to developing a leaky gut, and to triggering general chronic inflammation that can eventually reach the brain. Thus increasing autistic behaviors, affecting the child’s immune system, and directly impacting neurodevelopment.
When it comes to healing the GI, stem cell activity is able to act at specific sites in the intestinal wall where permeability is an issue and help regenerate the gaps between cells.
This repair mechanism prevents toxins from leaking into the bloodstream, and ultimately into the brain. This can be translated into a decrease in inflammation, pain ease, an overall improvement in cognitive functionality.
After only a couple of weeks after the therapy, most parents report a significant improvement in their children’s mood, social and learning skills, and overall health. Don’t hesitate and give your child the opportunity to unleash his/her potential. You can find out all of the benefits of stem cell therapy for autistic conditions here.
At WSCC, we offer support for autistic families and their children with stem cell therapy treatments that can transform autistic conditions by healing the gut, decreasing inflammation, and improving brain function. We also created an autistic community on Facebook that is destined to offer support and companionship for ASD parents and their families on their journey.
Remember, you are not alone!
