There is no known single cause for autism, but it is generally accepted that it is caused by abnormalities in brain structure or function. Brain scans show differences in the shape and structure of the brain in autistic versus non-autistic children. Researchers are investigating a number of theories, including the link between heredity, genetics and Medicine problems. In many families, there appears to be a pattern of autism or related disabilities, further supporting a genetic basis to the disorder. While no one gene has been identified as causing autism, researchers are searching for irregular segments of genetic code that autistic children may have inherited. It also appears that some children are born with a susceptibility to autism, but researchers have not yet identified a single "trigger" that causes autism to develop. |
Although many people state that autism syndrome cannot be fully cured, we still can reduce the symptoms by choosing intensive alternative treatment such as acupuncture and herbal medicine. Herbal medicine is a natural way of healing. It is not involved with poison, drugs and any chemical substance. Thus, it will not bring harm to the patients and has no bad side effects. |
