This is a study of the effect of a customized probiotic on children and adults with autism, including effects on autism symptoms and gastrointestinal symptoms.
SunGenomics provides its customers with a customized probiotic based on an analysis of the microbiota in their stool samples. Customers who have autism spectrum disorders are invited to participate in this study by completing several questionnaires about their medical history, diet, autism symptoms, and gastrointestinal symptoms before taking the probiotic, and to repeat those questionnaires approximately 3 months later. This is effectively an open-label study.
