Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a development impairment characterized by cognitive and neurobehavioral deficit, including communication and social problem that need psycology and education intervention for the children and the parents, also nutrition intervention with Gluten-Free Casein-Free (GFCF). This study’s aim is to identify the parenting style and Gluten-Free Casein-Free diet role in ASD’s symptoms modification. This study was start with collecting the references and research publications, and study the relationship of parenting style and GFCF diet to ASD. Flexible Parenting style in ASD is important and need to be adjusted based on the characteristic, development stage and the children’s situation. Diet GFCF can be a complementary therapy to reduce ASD’s symptoms particularly children with gluten allergy and have celiac disease. However, the children without any gastrointestinal symptoms to gluten/casein products need a consideration and advance examination to determine GFCF diet requirement. [Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) merupakan suatu kelainan perkembangan saraf yang dicirikan dengan adanya defisit kognitif dan neurobehavioralyang mencakup masalah komunikasi dan perilaku sosial, yang memerlukanintervensi psikologis dan edukasi pada anak dan orang tua, serta intervensi nutrisi dengan pembatasan asupan gluten dan kasein yang dikenal dengan diet Gluten-Free Casein-Free (GFCF). Penulisan telaah jurnal ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pola asuh orang tua dan pembatasan asupan gluten dan kasein terhadap perbaikan gejala ASD. Penulisan telaah literatur dilakukan dengan mengumpulkan berbagai sumber teori dan hasil penelitian kemudian dilakukan telaah terhadap hubungan kedua faktor yaitu pola asuh dan pembatasan asupan gluten dan kasein terhadap ASD. Gaya pengasuhan pada ASD perlu dilakukan secara fleksibel sesuai dengan keunikan karakter anak, tahap perkembangan anak, dan situasi yang sedang dihadapi. Terapi pembatasan asupan gluten/kasein dapat menjadi pilihan terapi pelengkap untuk mengurangi gejala ASD terutama pada anak yang alergi gluten dan mengalami penyakit celiac. Namun, pada anak yang tidak memiliki gejala saluran cerna terhadap produk gluten/kasein perlu pertimbangan dan pemeriksaan lebih lanjut untuk menentukan perlu tidaknya pembatasan gluten/kasein pada makanannya]. Kata Kunci: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Gluten-Free Casein-Free (GFCF), Pola Asuh Pada ASD, Autisme, Terapi Nutrisi Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is an early-onset neurodevelopmental disorder with 1 in 68 children prevalence. The key symptoms of ASD include social deficits, verbal and non-verbal communication deficits, and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities. For unknown reasons, gastrointestinal symptoms are related to ASD. The aim of the current paper is to review the available literature on dietary interventions in children with ASD and provide up-to-date evidence. METHODS: Searches in online databases, using the search terms’ dietary intervention, “autism spectrum disorders,” and “autism” were conducted. The search targeted publications ranging from 2010 to 2020. RESULTS: Twenty-six studies with different study designs which evaluated the effectiveness of specific dietary interventions in children with ASD were included in our review. Several dietary interventions were of popular practice in the management of children with ASD, including elimination (gluten-/casein-free diet and oligoantigenic diet), modification (modified ketogenic diet), supplementation (minerals, vitamins, omega 3, and omega 6), and exclusion (food additives). Studies showed different results with varying degrees of evidence. Overall, data were inadequate to make accurate conclusions. CONCLUSION: There is little evidence to support the use of dietary interventions for children with ASD. Additional high-quality studies and further research are, therefore, needed.

Gastrointestinal distress is a prevalent issue in the autism spectrum disorder community, with implications for the person living with autism spectrum disorder and their families. However, the experiences of families caring for a child with co-occurring autism spectrum disorder and gastrointestinal symptoms have not been explored to date. We conducted one-on-one semi-structured interviews with 12 parents of children with co-occurring autism spectrum disorder and gastrointestinal symptoms. Using an inductive analysis approach, drawing on phenomenology, we identified four major themes across interviews. First, parents reported that their child had difficulty verbally communicating the presence of gastrointestinal symptoms, leading parents to rely on bodily signs and non-verbal behaviors to recognize when their child was experiencing gastrointestinal distress (Theme 1). Next, gastrointestinal issues impacted the child’s well-being and the ability to participate in and fully engage in activities (Theme 2), and the family’s well-being (Theme 3). Finally, parents often experienced challenges with seeking accessible and quality healthcare for their child’s gastrointestinal problems (Theme 4). These findings elucidate the incredible toll that gastrointestinal symptoms have on the overall wellness of children with autism spectrum disorder and their families. Lay abstract Gastrointestinal problems are common in the autism spectrum disorder community and may affect both the person with autism spectrum disorder and their families. However, little research is available on the experiences of families who have a child with both autism spectrum disorder and gastrointestinal symptoms. We held one-on-one interviews with 12 parents of children who had both autism spectrum disorder and gastrointestinal symptoms. We analyzed the raw text responses from these interviews and identified four main themes. First, parents shared that their children had trouble verbally communicating when they were experiencing gastrointestinal symptoms (Theme 1). This led parents to use bodily signs, such as changes in the stool, and non-verbal behaviors, such as irritability, to recognize when their child was having gastrointestinal symptoms. Next, gastrointestinal issues affected both the child’s well-being and their ability to attend class and extracurricular or social activities (Theme 2). The gastrointestinal issues also affected the family’s routines, overall well-being, and their ability to go out and do activities together as a family (Theme 3). Finally, parents often had challenges receiving accessible and quality healthcare for their child’s gastrointestinal problems (Theme 4). Together, these findings highlight the enormous burden that gastrointestinal symptoms have on the wellness of children with autism spectrum disorder and their families.

Individuals with autism spectrum disorder are more likely than typically developing individuals to experience a range of gastrointestinal abnormalities, including chronic diarrhea, constipation, food sensitivities, and abdominal pain. These gastrointestinal symptoms have been associated with higher levels of irritability and aggressive behavior, but less is known about their relationship with core autism spectrum disorder symptoms. We investigated the relationship between autism spectrum disorder and gastrointestinal symptom severity while accounting for three associated behavioral symptom domains (Irritability, Aggressiveness, and Specific Fears), in a sample of 176 children (140 males and 36 females) ages 2–7 years old with autism spectrum disorder. Most participants had at least one reported gastrointestinal symptom (93.2%) and had more than one gastrointestinal symptom (88.1%). After accounting for each associated behavioral symptom domain, repetitive behaviors and stereotypies were positively associated with gastrointestinal symptom severity. Social and communication difficulties were not significantly associated with gastrointestinal symptom severity after accounting for associated behavioral symptoms. Our findings replicate a previously described association between irritability and aggression and gastrointestinal symptoms. Furthermore, gastrointestinal symptom severity is associated with repetitive behaviors, a subset of core autism spectrum disorder symptoms. This suggests that gastrointestinal symptoms may exacerbate repetitive behaviors, or vice versa, independent from other associated behavioral symptoms. Lay Abstract Individuals with autism spectrum disorder are more likely than typically developing individuals to experience a range of gastrointestinal abnormalities, including chronic diarrhea, constipation, food sensitivities, and abdominal pain.

A large majority (93.2%) of the sample had at least one reported gastrointestinal symptom, and most (88.1%) participants had more than one gastrointestinal symptom. Various types of gastrointestinal symptoms were reported; the most common symptoms reported were constipation, food limits, gas/bloating, and stomach pain. After accounting for each associated behavioral symptom domain, repetitive behaviors and stereotypies were significantly associated with gastrointestinal symptom severity. Increased severity of autism spectrum disorder symptoms was correlated with increased gastrointestinal symptom severity. Social and communication difficulties were not significantly associated with gastrointestinal symptom severity after accounting for associated behavioral symptoms. Our findings replicate a previously described association between irritability and aggression and gastrointestinal symptoms. Furthermore, we found that repetitive behaviors, but not social or communication symptoms, are associated with gastrointestinal symptom severity, even after accounting for associated behavioral symptoms. This suggests that gastrointestinal symptoms may exacerbate repetitive behaviors, or vice versa, independent from other associated behavioral symptoms.
