Herbal medicine provides many effective options in the biomedical approach to treating ASD, immune and digestive disorders. Herbal medicine addresses organ and system function, thereby improving digestive, immune, detoxification and neurological processes.  Healing the gut is the number one priority. 

A qualified herbal medicine practitioner is able to utilise herbs to both stimulate digestion and help heal the wall of the digestive tract, resulting in improved absorption of nutrients.  Herbs promote liver function, detoxification, kill pathogenic microbes, boost immunity, dry up excess mucous and support neurological function.   

Many herbs are potent antiinflammatories and antioxidants – easing the inflammatory and oxidative stresses that cause many symptoms of gut-immune-neurological disorders.   

Some herbs can even be used to facilitate the chelation of toxic metals, a process necessary to eliminate them from the body.
