Disturbed #gut flora during the first years of life is associated with diagnoses such as #autism and #ADHD later in life. The study is the first forward-looking, or prospective, study to examine gut flora composition and a large variety of other factors in #infants, in relation to the development of the children's #nervous system.

Autism and ADHD are linked to disturbed gut flora very early in life

The present study also confirms that the risk of developmental neurological diagnosis
