Kinder mit Autismus sind häufiger und anhaltender Verdauungsprobleme. Diese Magen- und Verdauungsprobleme sind mit größeren Herausforderungen in Bezug auf Schlaf, Kommunikation, sensorische Verarbeitung und Verhalten verbunden.

I’ve linked to the news release in the post above. In this comment, for those interested, here’s the link to the peer reviewed journal article:

From the linked article:

**Children with autism face more frequent and persistent digestive problems**

A new long-term study has found that children diagnosed with autism are far more likely to experience ongoing gastrointestinal problems than their typically developing peers. The research also reveals that **these stomach and digestive issues are linked to greater challenges with sleep, communication, sensory processing, and behavior**. The findings were published in the scientific journal Autism.
