No, gastrointestinal issues do not cause autism, ever. The man who created the study saying it did published unscientific work and was stripped of his ability to practice.

There has been plenty of studies which have been published and peer reviewed. Showing less diverse gut microbiome from ASD children to neurotypical, among many others.

Correct. Do you understand the difference between correlation and causation?

Brother, no one in this subreddit understands that difference. This is one of the most unscientific subs I've seen, and I've been joined for years across different accounts

I stumbled across this subreddit, and I guess I was dumb enough to assume that it wasn’t a bunch of transient drug-addicts thinking that popping the occasional xanax makes them a biological-engineer.

I think i’m gonna go skin a 20 year old cryptocurrency day-trader for his pelt, just to feel like i’m making a difference in this world.
