Hi Ellie,

"Autistic Syndrome" A Medical Problem

What is that region, substantia nigra?

What kind of therapy do you find best for yourself? I feel that my abusive
toilet training and emotional neglect set up the ensuing physical,
emotional, and mental disorders that are being healied now. I do the best I
can with diet and I am open to the best emotional mental therapies.

Supressing our instinctive feelings can affect smell and taste.

What is your take on eating disorders? I've had anorexia in college and
bulimia  starting in my 20's. I began the vegan/living food diet back in
1974. I'm about 50-99% living daily.

Also, have you read Elaine Gottschall's Breaking the Vicious Cycle,
Intestinal Health through Diet? She notes the effect of certain foods on
abnormal brain behavior and abnormal behavior.

Let me know your thoughts on Goldberg's work.
