This is an odd one. Chloride is an essential electrolyte in the body. In physiology, the primary ions of electrolytes are sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), chloride (Cl−), hydrogen phosphate (HPO42−), and hydrogen carbonate (HCO3−).

The article says that autistic children have too much chloride and this may be the cause or a contributing factor to autism.
But it’s not clear from the article whether this should be given to pregnant women to prevent autism, or whether it’s effective when given the children who already have autism.
Obviously more info is needed, but this is an interesting approach.
