Health food supplement for Autistism-(apple pectin)

The biggest different between Nerve cells and non-nerve cells is that the non-neural cell survival requirements are very low. Basically, as long as there are oxygen and glucose, non-neural cells can survive. But the nerve cells need 2 more in addition to the nerve growth factor, they are (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor, BDNF) and (Glial Cell-Derived Neurotrophic Factor, GDNF ). 
 
6 Year-old did not understand the words 


BDNF has a variety of effects such as increased memory capacity. Some children Never forget, while some children "into the left ear, right ear out"; one of the key is whether the child has sufficient BDNF. BDNF can help the child develop logical thinking. In this regard, one parent said that his children already recognize the apple on the table, but with Apple put upside down, children will not recognize. Lack of logical thinking is a typical example. 


A mother is very worried, when her children have reached the age of six, but not understand words, only 'Yi Yi Ya Ya'. The reason is lack of GDNF. GDNF is responsible for coordinating thought and muscle. When an idea emerges cerebral cortex, brain dopamine nerve will spur the muscle to deal with that idea. This is inside the program, including starting the tongue and mouth muscles, the idea of "talking" out; or start arm and finger muscles, the idea of "writing" them; even be a starter muscles, put the idea into action. Tendency of some autistic children, they do not want to speak, only because of the lack of GDNF, can not control the tongue and mouth muscles.  


So, how can we increase the BDNF (memory / logic) and GDNF (muscle coordination)? According to the National Health Council (National Institute of Health) study, if we can inhibit the (Histone Deacetylase, HDAC) biological enzyme, The
brain astrocytic can increase the manufacturing capacity of BDNF and GDNF.

What health food supplement can inhibit HDAC? The answer is apple pectin (Pectin). Pectin's carbohydrate structure is very complex, There is no digestive enzyme in small intestine to breaks down pectin; However, when the pectin is in the large intestine, the bacteria that live in the large intestine will digest the Butyrate. The Butyrate absorbed in large intestine, can cross blood-brain barrier into the brain, thus stimulating brain astrocytes, to produce BDNF and GDNF.  

Repair nerve cells 


All in all, if every autistic child is given 2 grams of acetyl carnitine and 2 g of apple pectin purified extracts, it can enhance his absorption / processing knowledge, and even the ability to speak and so on. some examples of immediate, just about three days, has been able to see tangible progress. 


Finally, the increase in acetyl-carnitine, can also repair the nerve cells nerve growth factor, this supplement and health food also can alleviate the paralysis of the skin caused by chemotherapy drugs, diabetes induced paralysis, migraine, sciatica, epilepsy and dementia. 


The apple pectin, as it can help to increase BDNF, is to calm emotions, to improve ocular hypertension (glaucoma) caused by optic nerve failure, to improve tinnitus and through increased GDNF, so as to alleviate Parkinson's disease.
