In recent years, several studies have shown that the bacteria in our gut are linked to our overall health.
These gut bacteria can affect our mood, how we handle stress, and our chances of getting autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and type 1 diabetes.
A new study in The Journal of Immunology gives new information about how gut bacteria might be connected to autism.
According to the World Health Organization, autism is a range of brain development conditions that affect how people interact and communicate with others.
