Autism is closely linked to gut health. A damaged microbiome can worsen behaviors like violence. Diet plays a huge role here.

  • Eliminate all processed foods, including pizza and restaurant meals, which often contain hidden chemicals.
  • Switch to home-cooked, organic meals. Growing your own food or buying locally can help keep costs down.
  • The GAPS Diet has been effective for many autistic children.

Jini says that probiotics are also key. If bowel movements exceed three times a day, use powders. Otherwise, capsules like Healthy Trinity can work. Be clever about giving probiotics—mix them into foods like yogurt or chocolate pudding without letting the child notice.

2. What should I do if probiotics hurt my child’s stomach?

Stress can also be a factor. Reflect on family dynamics, especially around high-pressure activities. Children need to feel supported and not burdened by expectations. Ensure that sports or other activities are enjoyable and not a source of anxiety.

3. Is wild oregano taken orally effective for a staph infection in the nose?

Yes, wild oregano taken orally can help support the body during infections. However, applying it directly to the affected area is more effective.

  • Dilute wild oregano and use it with a nasal spray for infections in the nose.
  • For sinus infections, use a combination of wild oregano and colloidal silver in a neti pot. This ensures the treatment reaches the infection site.

Bile acid malabsorption often results in acidic, yellow diarrhea. Here’s how to address it:

  • Start with bifido factor probiotic powder. Begin with tiny amounts (like a pinch) and gradually increase.
  • Once diarrhea improves, introduce other probiotics like digestal la and megadophilus.
  • Continue probiotics for at least a year to stabilize your gut health.

Taking it slow and steady is key. Avoid overwhelming your system with large doses at once.

5. How does one get the courage to stop taking medications?

Start by getting familiar with natural healing methods. Begin with probiotics or gentle natural remedies while still on medications. This helps you build confidence and trust in these alternatives. Gradually, as you see improvements, you’ll feel more ready to transition fully.

6. What would you recommend for a kid with malnutrition, not gaining weight, and slow growth?

Nutrient-dense shakes like Absorb Plus can help kids gain weight and get the nutrients they need for growth. Start with small doses to avoid overwhelming their system.

Other tips:

  • Add Absorb Plus to raw milk from grass-fed animals for extra benefits.
  • Use food-based shakes with ingredients like avocado, banana, or yogurt.
  • Supplement with Quick Plus Bone Matrix to support skeletal development.

It’s easier to drink calories than eat them. Focus on making nutrient-packed shakes they’ll enjoy.

7. If bleeding a lot, when should probiotic enemas be started?

Probiotic enemas can help, even during active bleeding. Some experts recommend starting right away. Others suggest using a healing enema first to stop the bleeding and then transitioning to probiotic enemas. Jini suggest to follow your intuition and monitor your body’s response.

8. How do I come off biologic treatments for fistulizing Crohn’s disease?

Research suggests biologic drugs might contribute to fistula formation by suppressing immune responses. Transitioning off them involves:

  • Treating infections directly with wild oregano and probiotics.
  • Applying antipathogen treatments like wild oregano directly to fistula sites using syringes.

These methods support your body’s natural defenses instead of suppressing them.

9. Is there a time when spore probiotics are okay to use?

Spore probiotics (soil-based) are highly competitive and can wipe out bad bacteria and yeast. However, they can also cause long-term problems by introducing hard-to-eliminate spores into the gut.

Avoid using spore probiotics, especially if you have a chronic illness or a compromised immune system. Their risks outweigh their short-term benefits.

10. What can I use to get rid of skin tags around the anus?

Surgery is another option, but it can be painful and often leads to recurrence. Jini says to consider all options carefully before proceeding.
