7 tips for preventing autism during pregnancy
www.melaniemcgrice.com.au/preg...
Current research suggests that what we eat during pregnancy can help to boost our immune defence system to protect our body, and our baby from environmental toxins and may help reduce your baby’s risk of developing autism.
In today's episode of Nourish, prenatal dietitian Melanie McGrice explores the research and provides 7 tips for preventing autism during pregnancy.
To clarify, if you already have a child with an Autism Spectrum Disorder this video is not to make you feel guilty or to blame. Rather this video aims to help empower you so that you have the knowledge to do the best that you can given your unique circumstances.

The comments on this video are ..interesting . This woman is not saying that it’s your fault that your child is autistic. She is saying you can try to help prevent it by eating certain foods. Duh. Stop being so emotionally soft. also, thank you for the video is very helpful and I will try to use all your recommendations.

I remember when I was pregnant with my autistic child, my doctor told me that I didn't need supplements because eating healthy food was enough. My child is 6 now, and after EEG & MRI tests, it was found that his condition is not genetic, his mom/ I had vitamin D deficiency. Because of that, I also understood why his new/permanent teeth in the front are deformed, instead of rectangular shape, they are like triangle and misaligned. I've learned that abnormalities in child's teeth enamels are sign of vitamin D deficiency. That also explains why I had joints pain for a very long time after giving birth, my bones and joints became very weak and it lasted for about a year. This is why I have trust issues with doctors. I was regularly going to my doctor and did all the tests but they still couldn't see that I had deficiency. She also told me that I didn't need supplements, and she also discouraged me to search on the internet about pregnancy. She meant that shouldn't believe in the internet but every thing she said was the same as on the internet.

Hi Sam, I am so sorry to hear your experience with your doctor in relation to your little boy. Thank you so much for sharing your story, for I wish you got to see this video sooner! Nutrition plays such a massive role in so many conditions, which inspires me even more to make sure I can share this with people like yourself. However, I am sure your boy is still beautiful as ever and has such a strong woman as a mother who will give him the best and most fulfilling life!

Mentioning Autism Speaks should definitely be done with care as it’s VERY controversial especially with autistics. I have what was formerly known as Asperger’s so I really know this well from conversations with other autistics. The hatred is fierce. Anyway, Now you know that when I get pregnant (hopefully) I have the genetic predisposition to pass it on. My question is: What would vegans and vegetarians eat? Antioxidants are easy, but not all of those things are.

Of course, I completely respect that this is a sensitive topic. In regard to your question, supplementation may be advised under the guidance of a health care professional. However, each effort made to support your pregnancy, is a step in the right direction :)

@@DarkAngel-cj6sx just remember that just because he’s becoming none verbal doesnt mean he’s becoming stupid. Many people with autism have far higher IQ’s than neurotypical people. Obviously i don’t know if he has accompanying conditions like learning difficulties or whether he’s more on the aspergers part of the spectrum. If he has aspergers then you may find he doesnt excel at every subject and may struggle with typical employment but aspies tend to have an extremely strong interest in one topic. If thats the case then try to help nurture his special interest into something he can create a career out of rather than force him into dead end jobs when he’s grown up. If he does have learning disabilities or other conditions that require more care and that prevent him being able to work as an adult then just remember he can still grow to lead a fulfilling and happy life

Thank you! Just what I’ve been looking for. Quick question: I live in an asian country where if I eat outside there’s a huge chance the food will contain MSG or monosodium glutamate (you might be familiar with “chinese-food” syndrome). Does this will affect the chance of autism? Since I eat outside quite often. Thanks!

Dita, the research into the role of glutamate on autism is still very inconclusive. We can each only do our best with the options we have. Look around you....I’m sure there are many children whose mothers ate at these restaurants who don’t have autism. Do the best you can 🙂

I know from the Specialist who treat them (also all different) as of today studies still have no links or actual evidence on what causes the disorder. Very informative video on clean eating and everyone should. But you using the scare tacit of a mom possibly being to blame for what she ate or eats during pregnancy is very shameful!!

That’s right, it’s not a causal relationship,, but emerging research suggests that nutrition can help. As I said in the video, I’ve provided the information to empower, not to blame. No one is perfect and no parent can be expected to eat a perfect diet. We all just do the best we can in the situation that we’re in. But my hope is that this video helps parents who are looking for guidance about what to eat. 🙂

So because Autism’s etiology is unknown, we should do nothing reasonably preventative? I think eating intentionally to weed out environmental toxins is generally reasonable, and especially while pregnant. Why feel confident that you are doing something good for yourself and your baby when you can feel confident in doing nothing and taking life as it may?? 🤷‍♀️ Its one thing to disagree with someone, and entirely another to “shame” them with second hand info you got from your siblings. Shove off.

What exactly is this woman’s credentials and how has she tested her theories? She says evidence based but that’s not accurate, it’s a strong stretch of correlational research with really far fetched conclusions. Please note: there are NO definitive or correlational links between the majority of these things and the etiology of autism spectrum disorders. Leading experts in the field of ASD will not tell you to watch micronutrients to prevent ASD. Is it important for overall health? Yes. Does any of this act as causal mechanisms? No. I’ve done many interviews of pregnancy history of women with children with ASD and a lot of them do everything “right” nutritionally and health wise and still have kiddos with ASD. Which is to say, this is shaming mothers (saying it’s not doesn’t mean it’s not) and making them feel bad for their child’s development. Or, it makes expectant mothers worried to a degree that is healthy for no one. Please be careful with what you say.

Autism diagnosis has only increased as more people are being diagnosed.. more research and information is being discovered than it was in the 1960's/1970's. Saying something you eat while pregnant can cause your unborn child to be autistic is absolutely ridiculous. As an austic adult I find this insulting and infuriating. Neurotypicals tend to be so focused on fixing us as if we are a problem, just because of a neurological difference in our brains? Such intolerance, and shows the lack of acceptance. You're telling us to prevent autism to have normal and healthy diet, like most people should do anyways 🤦🏻‍♀️ Also, you should also not be taking anything from Autism Speaks as they are an anti-autistic group, talk to and listen to actual autistic people. There's nothing, and I mean NOTHING, wrong with being born an autistic individual and to think otherwise shows that people who have that mindset are the problem.

I was coming down here to say the same thing myself. I'm glad I'm not the only one who stumbled upon this video and was hella offended by it. Like hey, here's an idea: how about we spend less time trying to ~prevent autism~ and more time trying to fix something that *actually* needs fixing? Like, I don't know, the systems active in most Western societies that make life more difficult for autistic people than neurotypical people and consequently make neurotypical people believe that autism is something that needs to be prevented/"cured," perhaps? SMH. Maybe we wouldn't struggle so much if y'all made school, work, etc. more neurodivergence-friendly, ya know?

Rates have not increased, diagnosis is due to better tools. This is a crock, you haven’t even provided references in the description.

Why would you want to stop mothers from getting the right information to prevent their baby being born autistic? We need this information. If videos like this didn’t exist, then more children would be born with autism. Personally I’d rather have healthy children. You SHOULD want to do everything possible to make your child healthy. That’s literally your job as a parent.

Magnesium, Vitamin D and iron are 3 of the most important supplements during pregnancy. If you don’t do anything else, take these daily.

Our boy was born 2 weeks early, difficult birth, with partial amniotic fluid loss. I suspect this happened because of sex we had the night before. Medicine was given and he was put in the intensive care. I blame my thinking with the dick.

There is not much to suggest that intercourse can cause a rupture of the amniotic sac. Please don't be hard on yourself :)

@@visualartistrybynorthe2128 because we know more about it. Simple as that, and there’s more people procreating. The more people that exist, the more cases of something. Plus, still it’s only around 1% of the global population. There are places and people in history and modernity who REFUSE any diagnosis too. So, with some progressing out of that, more diagnosis will happen. And that’s a good thing

No. This content is here to help create a healthy human with the best possible outcome in life. Autism is not a disease, no one should be blamed for having it. But it’s not a gift either, and as a mother of an autistic child I DO dream of a world without autism, it is rapidly increasing and we should be more responsible than encouraging people to celebrate neurodivergent conditions like it’s a good thing, it’s not. It hurts people, and families. And that’s the truth.

This is a dangerous video, autism is not something that occurs during pregnancy. I don't mind telling people to eat healthy but please for the love of god, stop with these "preventing autism" and "curing autism" videos! It's sickening to see.
