Welcome to Episode 278 of Autism Parenting Secrets.

You already know the gut is important. But what you may not know is that toxic chemicals from harmful gut microbes can play a major role in many of the symptoms linked with autism.

My guest is Dr. James B. Adams, Director of the Autism/Asperger’s Research Program at Arizona State University. 

He’s published over 180 scientific papers, including more than 70 on autism. His work covers nutrition, gut health, toxins, seizures, and prenatal supplements. 

He also leads the Autism Nutrition Research Center and other groups focused on gut-brain science. 

And he’s the father of an adult daughter with autism.

Dr. Adams and his team have developed a new test that spots harmful gut toxins with striking accuracy. 

This breakthrough could change how we understand and treat autism.
