Re: Does yeast cause autism

[Guest guest]

Thanks for sharing your story. It's the antibiotics that I think

cause the problems AFTER the mercury exposure, then comes the yeast

and with 25 ft. of intestines...it's a hard problem to resolve. I

hate the drastic diet changes but I will try the Spec Carb diet for

a month and see if that alleviates some of the yeast die off and

then I may switch to just a GFCF diet (which sounds like heaven

right now)...it depends on how well he is doing. Yeast is such an

awfully hard thing to get rid of....I just want a permanent

solution...QUICKLY!!!! I cant believe that giving Nystatin with the

antibiotics would of resolved all of this...that should be an

automatic for the pediatrician!
