I had very little responses so they "survey" is very inconclusive.
I have many of the symptoms of Asperger's syndrome, which is a mild form of autism.
I've read that 90% of autistics are A (blood group), but I'm O. I don't know if that statistic only took account of those who are very low functionning autistics (like those we see in movies).
Aspergers also are known to have high rates of yeast infections. (I believe that it might be 100%).
Some people believe that autism is caused by yeast toxins. Urine analysis confirm the presence of these toxins.
A lot of autistic childs parents see an amelioration when they stop giving them casein and gluten (leaky gut problems).

This is a very interesting page about the possibility that Neanderthal genes are still present nowadays. The problems with Neanderthals is that they were super predators, too good for their preys. Some biologists believe this resulted in their death, some others believe they eventually interbreeded with the homo sapiens of that era.
This could be linked to the fact that some people do not excrete mercury and other toxins. I haven't seen any specific explanation, but I had an idea and some quick search confirmed the possibility. Neanderthals didn't eat fish, but Homo sapiens did. Fish have probably always been a concentrated source of toxins, especially toxins like mercury which are naturally present in higher concentration in fish than in the preys of Neanderthals.
I also suspect that Neanderthals had high omega-3 intake (EPA and DHA) and didn't require the enzymes to convert the alpha linolenic acids in EPA and DHA. By example, even beef, when given grass instead of grains, will be a very good source of omega-3. Organ meats are also very good sources of essential fatty acids [EFA](including GLA, the omega-6 EFA) and were certainly eaten by our ancestors.
Autistics are very low in EFAs. They also respond well to the supplementation of L-Carnosine, L-Carnitine and L-Taurine, which are naturally present in a high-meat diet.
Antibiotics reduce mercury excretion, dysbiosis reduces mercury excretion. Mercury induces yeast infections.
The thing I don't understand is that blood group O are supposed to be mainly carnivorian while blood group A is mainly vegetarian.
I hypothetize that Aspergers are mainly O, and low-level autism are mainly A. The genes for low mercury excretion is present in either, and in probably most if not all candida sufferers.
General antifungals alone are only a temporary solution, others like Grapefruit seed extract are very selective and are very good for dysbiosis.
The advantage of being an aspie (Asperger) is the high level of obsession that cause one to become very specialized in some specific things. Many experts suggest that they are very present at Silicon Valley, and are responsible for a lot of technologic innovations. Bill Gates might be one, Einstein might have been one.
