In this session, autism is explored as a condition influenced by the immune system and underlying health issues, especially infections and inflammation. The session explores how “flares” and sudden behavioral changes may be signs of the body reacting to triggers such as infections, allergens, or toxins. The session highlights how immune responses in the brain can affect behavior, mood, and learning at all ages. It also shows how factors like chronic infections, gut health, and environmental exposures may play a role. Practical strategies are shared to help calm inflammation, support the immune system, and identify root causes of symptoms.
What You’ll Learn:
• Understand what “flares” are and what may trigger them
• Recognize how infections and immune responses can affect behavior
• Identify common triggers like allergens, toxins, and chronic infections
• Learn simple ways to support the immune system and reduce inflammation
