I told you guys that this incredible compound found in the broccoli family and its sprouts has HUGE implications for inflammation and neurological symptoms, especially in disorders like autism. I personally believe that Vitamin D deficiency plays a role in the etiology of autism in the first place, as children with autism have been shown to have significantly lower levels than their neurotypical siblings. A 2015 study in Nutritional Neuroscience also found that Vitamin D levels were lower in patients with severe autism than in those with mild-moderate autism (and get this- 80% of subjects had behavioral improvements when given supplements!) Since gut dysbiosis including #parasites, #virusesand chronic infections such as #Lyme are often present in those with autism as well, proper Vitamin D levels are essential (due to the fact that D has direct antimicrobial properties that help eradicate these bugs and modulate immune function). ? Although the researchers don’t mention this connection to Vitamin D explicitly in this video or study, the results they found were nothing short of amazing. The study they’re referring to was published in the journal ‘The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences’ and revealed that sulforaphane was able to drastically improve social interactions and verbal communication in ASD-diagnosed men and boys. It also reduced hyperactivity, irritability and other ASD symptoms. ? The research was conducted on 44 males aged 13 to 27, and showed that after 18 weeks of consuming sulforaphane-rich broccoli sprout extract, more than half of the men saw significant health improvements. Not only did their behavior improve, measurable effects such as a decrease in lipid peroxidation and neuroinflammation were observed. These same men also saw improvements in antioxidant capacity, glutathione synthesis, mitrochondrial function and oxidative phosphorylation. ... #anonymous#mind#knowledge#truth#revolution#love#humanity#evolution#life#conscious#bethechange#mindset#world#earth#openmind#spiritual#peace#awakening#vegansofig#letsraiseawareness#awareness#vegan#spirituality#marijuana#society#spiritual#chaka
