Yoga -- A Holistic Approach to Treat Autonomic Component in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder

Yoga, involving both mind and body, is frequently used as a safe approach to boost mental equipoise and concentration, and may be practiced by everyone, including those with chronic disabilities.

Yogic techniques for ASD like Kriyas and Jathis can improve flexibility. Asanas help in increasing joint and muscle circulation and physical functioning grow less stressful and more integrated. Asanas and Pranayama work together in balancing, integrating different physiological functions, and dissolving emotional blockages and adverse customary patterns. Yoga helps in harmonizing mind-body-emotion complex, in developing social relationships, and in increasing positive thoughts, confidence, and self-reliance.

Is Wifi Causing Autism?

Now a paper claims that wifi is causing autism in our children. The paper was published in May and asked: "Could wireless technology be causing major health problems in your children?" It went on to add: "Wireless mobile phones, laptops and tablets could be causing major health problems in children and contributing to autism and hyperactivity, a new study warns," saying further that these devices, "which even include baby monitors, emit radiation and electromagnetic fields that pierce thin skulls, harming memory, learning and other mental skills."  Seems like every day there's a new explanation on the cause of autism.

Can CRISPR Cure Autism?

In the latest study, published by researchers from the University of California at Berkeley, the University of Texas, and GenEdit, have adapted CRISPR-Gold technology in order to treat autistic symptoms in mice. Beating the Autistic Odds with CRISPR One of the major highlights of the new research is the fact that CRISPR-cas9 could be a way to edit certain genes that relate to fragile X syndrome, which is a single-gene disorder frequently connected with autism, and autistic symptoms were improved on. Research provides additional evidence that conveyance of CRISPR-based therapeutics may be effectively accomplished via gold nanoparticles. Mutations in the FMR1 gene is the cause of Fragile X syndrome. This gene plays a key role in encoding the protein, FMRP, the regulator in the production of different proteins and contributes markedly to the development of synapses. Most of the time Fragile X occurs because of a mutation, which results in the enlargement of a part of the...

Herbs to Cure Autism

More and more parents are turning to herbs for treating the symptoms of their autistic children, and actually seeing positive results through the improvement of major symptoms of ASD. Here are two herbs to consider: Ginger Root Researchers from University of Maryland Medical Center say ginger may be effective in alleviating gastrointestinal problems. Because people with autism complain about gastrointestinal troubles, relieving these symptoms with ginger could go a long way for them to concentrate more easily on behavior and interaction. Gingko Leaf Gingko leaf may help in treating individuals with cognitive and autistic impairment.

Autism Biological Causes PDA?

What is PDA? PDA is a condition, identified with autism, and usually is characterized by a great desire to evade or resist demands. In addition, the causes come from the complicated interplay between environmental, genetic, and biological factors that account for modifications in neurological development. One can only guess cautiously that because of autism, PDA is now present in your child.

Causes of Autism Epigenetics Genetics Familial Risk Factors

The current consensus among most researchers is that genetics and environmental factors are playing a major role. However, finding a heritable connection is highly difficult because there are many genotypic variations that may underlie autism. To enhance the process in pinpointing genes contributing to the etiology of autism, scientists are expanding their research by including epigenetics. One specific gene, SETD, is in charge of neurodevelopment and associated behaviors. The gene has been identified in other studies in influencing early development; thus, the gene has become a top candidate for ASD. Scientists might have verified SETD's role in ASD by using a unique mouse model in a recent study. They have documented the gene driving epigenetically unusual neurodevelopment that leads to behavioral deficits commonly seen in ASD. Findings are published in Translational Psychiatry, in its January issue. No One Should Feel Forced To Live A Lifetime With Autism  Are You ...

Curing Autism with Diet

According to voices of authority in the medical world, there's no cure for autism. Autism makes children picky eaters and they make break down fat differently. Consequently, autistic kids are often running low in specific nutrients. Multivitamins  have shown to improve sleep and digestive issues in autistic children. Beware that a multivitamin with iron can provoke digestive problems. Vitamin 6 and magnesium  supplements have been identified in improving autistic children's behavior. However, more research is required for these supplements. Omega-3 fats  might help autistic children with hyperactivity, for many of them are usually low in this fat. The Gluten-free and Casein-free Diet  is free of gluten and casein. Gluten is the chief protein in wheat and other grains like rye, kamut, triticale, spelt, and barely. Casein is the central protein in dairy products like yogurt, milk, ice cream, and cheese. This diet can help improve autistic children's be...

What Causes Autism: Chromosomal Mutation or Nondisjunction?

According to a study, X chromosome is theorized to lead to the genetic disorder defined as severe autism. Opposed to the usual cases of autism, syndromic forms of the disorder are brought about by mutations in single chromosomal regions. Some of these genes are on the X chromosome like MecP2. Mutations in two different X chromosome genes, NLGN3 and NLGN4X, are linked with autism. These mutations occurring in genes could shed light on the growing rate of autism in male children.
