Getting a…
poop transplant…
to cure my autism
I still can’t believe poop transplant is a real thing. It sounds like a shitpost
More like a postshit than a shitpost.
Unless the FMT goes thru the mail.
Well it’s not a shitpost, it’s a shittransplant
Well that’s because it’s not it’s a microbiota transplant the poop is just substrate
The first time I heard about it I had the same reaction as damn near everyone, but it really makes a lot of sense
I would be okay with fixing my gastrointestinal issues and some of my cognitive struggles if I kept my cognitive differences.
thankfully I don’t think that this sort of therapy would change everything about someone’s cognition. We already know that autistic and ND brains have physical differences in their construction compared to neurotypical folks. We also knew that new structural differences may not be the entire story!
Same, I have zero desire to think like a neurotypical. I don’t wanna be an NPC.
Shoving shit up my ass so I’ll shut up about trains and touhou
trainhou
The Isle of Sodor is just British Gensokyo
This is funny because most autistic folks I know usually feel better when they put their shit into me.
Like infodumping about special interests. Is that a joke? You can ban me if that’s not a good joke.
Well, arcanepotato from crazypeople.online likes it, so what else could you need from a joke?
most autistic folks I know usually feel better when they put their shit into me.
It’s a good thing I put some context in the very next sentence. Nobody ever takes things out of context to make someone else look foolish.
It’s a good joke
to be honest gut microbiome and autism reminds me of andrew wakefield lmao
I was a little bit ready to read an article that was hacky and about “finding a cure” but it was instead about addressing health whole-sale and reducing things that relate to discomfort or difficulty. Very nice to see :) (unless I missed something, which is possible!)
Hope the research can continue to help people live the life they want. The gut-brain neural pathway continues being one of the wildest things to read about. Sounds like psuedo-science at first but I feel like the studies that keep coming out on it are really solid and surprising.
This one is certainly a type of solid. Joke aside it is indeed fascinating.
Now I just want a T-shirt that says “Fecal Transplants for Autism” with a brown ribbon.
It’s just WTF enough to get people interested enough to ask a question, then BOOM! I hit them with science!
Where do I sign
Where do I fkn sign I’m so tired of this
cw: weird intrusive thought
Just find someone with good poops and go ass to ass!
Bong hit transplants have a much higher success rate
We should combine them, you know, to increase the success rate.
Has anyone tried the reverse?
Yeah, maybe we could fix them
Achieving economic planning and train infrastructure brb
the comments on that article are abysmal, even more so then public comments on news articles usually are
Autism+Science online always draws out some of the absolute worst examples of humanity.
If an author invented the concept of fecal transplants for a story, I’d think they were fetish worldbuilding
Same goes for premarin (not because it’s an HRT drug but because of its, uh, particular source)
All Creation is merely the vessel through which God reveals to us His fetishes, amen.
:rainbow-dash-peeing-on-ford-logo:
For far too long, shit has only come out of the asshole. Until today, nobody was daring enough to ask, what if shit went into the asshole too? What if the asshole could function in duplex?
Enemas have existed for a long time
what?
I have heard parents say that changing diet helped their children with autism, though I would hardly call that a scientific study
There’s actually a bit of research on autism and diet. What I’m familiar with is sulforaphane (from broccoli, cabbage etc) showing an improvement in symptoms. This video talks about the causes that can impacted by diet, links to the studies referenced is under sources
Broccoli was my favourite food as a child and it definitely did not “fix” me.
I don’t think any of the studies referenced said “fixed”, I said symptom improvement which is significantly different. My kid still has symptoms, but I don’t know what the symptoms would be like without cruciferous since she’s always eaten at least cauliflower. If it makes relationships and communication less stressful for her, then great. If not, no harm done
Fun fact: Two thirds of all scurvy cases occur in people diagnosed as autistic.
I heard a lecturer say that with extreme deficiencies in juveniles you hope for autism as a “comorbidity” because that’s harmless and then you have a cause.
Diet would also affect the gut microbiome, so there is likely a link between this study and yours as well.
