Food allergies, intolerances and sensitivities in autism spectrum disorder (ASD)

Many autistic children have food-related issues, including allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities. Recent studies indicate that diet can directly impact the behavior of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities can influence mood, attention, sleep, and emotional regulation. Understanding how these factors interact and the appropriate nutritional approaches can make a difference in ASD.
