I’ve also heard that autistic kids respond to antifungal meds such as those which treat systemic yeast infections. That some of these kids are born to mothers who took antibiotics in pregnancy, and fungal infections are a frequent side effect of antibiotics and is why the kids respond to antifungal treatment. Systemic yeasts are frequent intruders to the gastro intestinal system which is why a person is encouraged to eat a lot of live culture yogurt after the antibiotic treatment is completed. The gut needs to have it’s balancing bacteria restored. Plain, unflavored, live culture yogurt is also sometimes used to treat candidia yeast in women.
I wish I could site a source, but it was something that was on television a couple of weeks ago.
Here is a good link for you:
