Have you ever heard the statement, “The apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree”? When it comes to the seemingly complicated puzzle of autism, many parents stop and ask, “How did this happen to my child?” Did you ever stop to think that the answer could be in your genes? Your genes are the blueprint of your body’s metabolic factory, and how these genes are expressed greatly influences your health. Have you ever imagined that you could influence or change your genetic predisposition to disease or conditions such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD)? Did you know that your genes are controlled or “turned on” and “turned off” by a cycle in your cells known as methylation? Think of this process as the editing software of your computer which corrects your improper spelling on a document. While it’s true that you can’t pick your parents, by knowing more about your genetics, you can be proactive in controlling the expression of disease and achieving overall health. Would you like to eliminate the guesswork from choosing nutritional supplements, avoid a cookie-cutter, one-size- fits- all nutritional approach, and utilize the cutting- edge field called epigentics? Epigenetics is the science of using customized nutritional supplements and highly specific diets to get around or “bypass” genetic mutations. Nutrigenomics is the newly- emerging science that describes the use of human genetic testing and the results of nutritional and biochemical tests to thoroughly understand what type of diet and supplements are best for the health of your body. It has great application in both the treatment and the prevention of disease. So what is the connection between genetics and nutrigenomics as it relates to autism spectrum disorders (ASD) such as ADD, ADHD and Asperger’s? Our goal at Dr. Noah's ARC is to identify the unique biological factors affecting each child. Making the connection between genetic mutations and autism spectrum disorder has completely revolutionized the methods we now utilize when implementing the customized nutritional programs. In summary, knowing your child’s genetic profile is absolutely critical, and, with valuable information, will enable you to accurately implement the proper forms of vitamins, and give you the knowledge to make ideal dietary choices to maximize your child’s potential. |
